THE ROCK ISLAND ROAD.

We are at last in position TO
answer the very large number of Per-
sons who have been asking whether
the Rock Island road is coming to To-
peka. Ar. Low, the,general solicitor
of the company was in Topeka yester-
day, and after consultation with
citizens submitted a proposition TO
build the Rock Island road through
Shawnee county, crossing the river in
Topeka, the road to be compile. ed by
December 81, 1887, if the county will
take stock to the amount of 1928 900
in the Chicago, Kansas and Nebraska
road, which is the name of the road
for which the Rock Island obtained its
charter in Kansas.
This means that the main line of the
road will come to Topeka and pass
through Shawnee county. The course
will then take the road to Alma ,Couu-
Gil Grove or Parkeryille, and thence
to Lost Springs, Dickinson county,
where the road branches, one branch
going to Wichita and the other to
Hutchinson. The route to Topeka
will be from st. Joseph, via
HOltOn, if jackson county votes
the bonds asked. If she does not,
the road will come through Jefferson
county. The petitions to the county
commissioners asking them to call an
election will be circulated Immediately
and the requisite names will be Sc
cured in a few days. 1t is believed
that the election can be held in the
latter part of next month. If the
bonds are voted, of which there seems
to be no doubt, the road will probably
be completed 10 Topeka within one
year. The Rock Island is coming.

RAILROAD OWLS.

II is very amusing just now to hear
aud read the sage opinions and advices
of numerous editors and people rcla-
tive to the designs, purposes and actu-
ating motives of certain Missouri
river trunk line railways touching
their entrance into this state. Many
of these same people treated the
EAGLES advocacy of this policy for a
year or more as wild and unworthy OF
notice. We see several articles of late
setting out the reasons why the Chi
cago and Rock island had concluded
TO invade the territory of Kansas, enc
OF which is that said road might resch
Topeka aud another that she might
reach another town not half SO i'm
pOrtant. Now We want to say TO
these gentlemen that Wichita was the
first point in Kansas that The manage
mcnt OF that corporation determined
upon running TO. Even UP to as late
as last October the management had
not made up their minds TO even run a
plug to Topeka. The after determin-
alton TO make three branches in south
west Kansas made it desirable, on ac-
count of passenger business, to run
the road by way of the capital. And
by the way, some of these writers, who
are So filled with information touch
ing that corporations intentions, can't
even tell what the three branches
south of Topeka are or where they
are to run TO, to say nothing of n
fonrih branch, which has practically
been concluded upon.

many men there is safety only in in

To Marry the Chief of q Clan.

Some days ago the departure of Princ'
Nicholas, of Montenegro, from Paris for st
Petersburg, was announced. It is now re
ported that the czarewitch has become Ell
gagged to the princes second daughter, who i
ID years Of age, and who is at school in st
Petersburg. Surprise is naturally expressed
at potentate so great as the car seeking 9
matrimonial alliance between his family and
that of the chief of a clan in the Black noun
tains, for Prince Nikita is nothing more. But
such a marriage would be in conformity with
the traditions Of the imperial house of Russia
Personal qualities have had greater weight
than rank in the choice Of brides by the czars
either for themselves or their heirs. With
the exception Of the Princess Charlotte OF
Prussia, wife of Nicholas, no czarina has ever

KANSAS CITY AND WICHITA.

The Kansas City Times, unquestion-
ably the greatest daily paper in the
west next Ia the EAeLE), graciously
publishes Wichita's daily real estate
transfers for the week ending May 10,
as furnished by this paper. The week
was not up to the average, but ex-
cepting Kansas City of course, the
showing is liable TO make the other
towns of the Missouri valley turn a
little pale. What Kansas City has
been to the Missouri valley will Wich-
ita be to the newer and more vigorous
Arkansas valley. What Kansas City
was fifteen wears ago Wichita is today.
Their development and growth have
been characteristic aud unparalleled,
and were begotten of that same west
ern spirit which encompasses in day
what the older and more cOnserv-
alive communities of the east allotted
as q reasonable task for year
For the same reason and on the same
principle Kansas City need not bcsur-
prised if in the next fifteen years,
Wichita SO improves on her methods
as to more greatly astoDish the world
than has Kansas City for the sane
period Kausss City EMO yed the Wig
orous accessions only upon one side,
the other half of the territory to
which she looked for support being
conservative western Missouri. Wich-
ita, upon the other hand is envirOncd
upon all sides by the most wonderfully
reso!ute communities, composing 8
field Of still yaster proportions than
tina: tributary to Kansas City orig
inalIy, not counting the Indian Terri
tory, whose trade will be divided be-
tween the two cities, in what proper
ton remains to be seen. Wichita
being closer, and, as she will have
reached out to the western two-thirds
of that land with at least four lines of
road. she will be in a position to get
at least her share.
Then here's TO the two great coming
cities of of the new west-Wichita,
Kansas, and Kansas City, which is in
the state of Missouri.
But enough of this, we only desir- |
ing further to call the attention of the |
Times that yesterdays transfers
amounted as will be seen elsewhere,
to the neat little cum of 1927 $40.

To tae Editor OF the Eagle:
Our quiet little city is in her lowell
est mood, nesting here on one of the
finest town sites in the west. The
residence portion of Augusta is most

considerable distance north of the
Walnut river and the business part of
the city. The Walnut river forms
our eastern aud southern boundary
and the White Water river coming in
from the northwest runs west of the
city about half mile and flows into
the Walnut nearly mile below. This
makes for us one OF the best drained
and most healthful locations of any
town in Kansas. In consequence of
two rivers nearly surrounding Ms We
have a large portion Of valley land.

Although warm, growing weather
