GARFIELD UNIVERSITY.

The foundations are in for the largest and
most imposing educational edifice to be
found anywhere in the west, not excepting
any of the state colleges or universities.
This institution is the Garfield university
located by the Christian church at Wichita.
A train load of stone for its walls is being
received daily. A thousand barrels of ce-
ment have so far been employed in render
ing the foundation immOvable and inde
structable. The treasurer is not nor has
not been embarrassed for funds, as prOba-
bly, the greatest source Of income has come
from the sale Of lots adjoining the institu
ton, and as the trustees withhold from one
thousand to twelve hundred lots which they
are at present refusing to sell, and which
lots are worth from two to three hundred
dollars each, the EAGLE would beg leave to
make this suggestion to the trustees: In
view of the fact Of the great interest which
will he taken in the laying of the corner
stone, and of the prominent persons of this
country who will be present, including
Hon. James G. Blaine, members of Garfield
family and a host of eminent divines from
all over the country; and, in view of the
further undisputed fact that the property
held for sale will be immensely enhanced
in value when the institution shall have
been completed in all its grand proportions,
wouldn't it be wise plan to inaugurate or
put forth general and systematic effort
| throughout the church all over the land to
raise by donation and subscription sufii-
cient funds to complete the cdifice, reserv-
ing the lots to be converted into monies for
an endowment fund some time in the flu
ture, or at such time as they shall become
far more valuable OF course this is but a
suggestion, but in view of the fact that the
endowments of all our state institutions
have been crippled because the lands owned
by them have been sold at minimum, rather
than at the maximum and the other fact
that building fund is more enththusiasti-
cally, more easilyy raised than perma-
nent endowment, therefore the suggestion.

OTHER FOOLS.

The Harper Graphic announces that
hereafter that paper will cease its daily and
continue its weekly only, employing the
following language:
with this issue the Graphic ceases to
publish daily paper, and the Grrphic edi
tor withdraws from the congregation OF
fools. Our reasons for this action are sim
ple There is too muah work on the daily
for the present force of the Office and not
enough money in it to justify the employ
ment of more help. Besides this there is nc
possible excuse for the exitance of three
dalies here The Graphic, it is true, has
the right of property, but since the other
fools seem to remain fools, we feel justified
in withdrawing from the ancient and illus
trious order and taking down our emblem
of the cap and bells.

To the Editor Of the Eagle
am in receipt of letter from Col S. S.
Prouty, general agent of Web Wilder's
Annals of Kansas, in which he saws: You
are right in saying that the Annals" can
be obtained only by subscription. 1t will
not be for sale at any bookstore or else
where. When the present edition of 5000
copies is exhausted, that will be the last of
the book, for it is not being electrotyped,
and the work is too expensive for any
publisher TO reprint. 1t will
contain over l,200 pages Your people
cannot obtain the book unless they leave
their names with you. Five years hence
the book will bring ten dollars. 1t will be
ready for delivery by the 18th Of Septcm
ber In the time allowed for making the
canvass for the Annals, it will be diff

might desire TO secure a copy of this valua

The Harper Daily Graphic has suspended

The proprietors of the EAGLE refused to
issue daily when Wichita had reached
ten thousand, they waiting until the census
showed nearly fourteen thousand. The
average town of fifteen thousand would
signally fail in sustaining such dailies as
are published in Wichita. Three or fou,
wears hence there will be less number OF
both daily and weekly papers in the state
of Kansas, even if the price of composition
and paper should drop one-half.

To years 0f long ago.

Life's maytirne long gone by.
An April rain of smiles and tears
My life has more OF b opes than fears
Fair mirrored n the sky.
Blow! west winds blow! my heart sings low
Through memory 's sunset air
Iifs's Cares and trials seen at last
Like mount ain ranges fading fast
In purple distance fair.

Where doubt and fear and ueath are aife,

Piles are frequently preceded by a sense of
weight in the back, lOins and lower part of the
abdomen, causing the patient to suppose he
has some affection of the kidneys or neigh
boring organs. At times symptoms of indi-
gestion are present tiatulency, uneasiness of
the stomach, etc. A moisture, like perspira-
ton, producing very disagreeable itching
after getting warm, is a common attendant.
Blind, Bleeding, and Itching Piles yield at
once to the application of DR., BOskanO's Pile
Remedy, which acts directly upon the parts
affected, absorbing the TumOrs, allaving the
intense itching, and etfecting a permanent

'lN CASTING about for new schemes
which will better the condition of wage
workers." says the Waco Day, sit would
be well to consider the great benefits
which would be derived from the estab-
lishment Of savings banks under the SUI
pervision of the Postoflice Department.
What we need is a system which will
induce laboring people to save money.
We complain of meager salaries, but al
most every man who has constant en-
ployment earns little more than is
needed to keep him and his dependents
in comfort. A hundred years ago when
the people complained OF high taxes, old
Ben Franklin told them that they taxed
themselves twice as much by their idle
ness, three times as much by their
pride, and tenfold more by their vices.
The same is true to-day, especially in
the south. We must revise our econ
omy, and above all not despise small
savings. In Massachusetts, the people
have learned this lesson long ago, and
to-day they have accumulatiors boarded
amounting to S275,0OO, 900, drawing 81
per cent. interest, in savings banks es-
tablished for small earnings of wage
workers exclusively. Hard times and
depression seem to have no effect on
these accumulations, as the deposits
show a steady increase year by year, and
the Massachusetts, working people will
soon be the most prosperous in the coun-
try, notwithstanding the starvation
wages" which prevail among them"

the statement of Earl Carnayon,
Lord Lieutenant of Ireland" says the
Washington Critic, presents very
gloomy outlook for the poorer people of
that country. He declares that Parlia-
ment will do nothing to relieve the
dreadful distress, and that all he can do
for the starving people is to use the linn
tied means at his disposal for sending
the unfortunate to the warehouses;,
which are already much overcrowded.
lie hopes for private contributions,
however. 1t would not be bad idea to
divert some of the money subscribed for
the relief of Ireland politically to feed
ing those of her people who are starving
physically. The fund for political relief
is very plethoric one and would not be
seriously diminished by cutting off a
generous slice to drive away the wolf
that is proving so near the humble cot
tages of the peasantry."
