Senator p. b. Plumb, of Kansas, is
perhaps without exception the most
influential Senator in Congress to-day.
In the varied business interests of the
whole people, aud Kansas in particu-
lar, he has always ranked as the fore
most champion. 1t was through his
influence that the government has ap-
prOpriated large sums of money to
test the sugar producing qualities OF
the sugar cane grown on Kansas soil;
and from those experiments it is clear:
ly demonstrated that Kansas will be
the great sugar producing state of the
Union. Senator Plumb must not &C
into the Cabinet as Kansas cannot do
without him in the senate. -Bogut

A special to the Globe Democrat
from Washington says: "The Kansans
are expected TO urge Ex-Governor Os-
b TN for secretary of the interior, al
though there is a report that in view
of his diplomatic experience he will
wait for one of the larger foreign mis-
sions, and that John A. Anderson,
who is very close personally to Mr..
Harrison, may be selected for place
in the cabinet"

Kansas has been dubbed the s.Na-
tons sugar-bowl." because of the sue
cess of irer sugar works. Four new
sugar factories were put into opera
ton the past season, and there are a
mum Der 'nore to be made r.ady for
next years crop. At Fort Scott a
new factory is to be built which will
make one third more sugar than the
sugar factory now in operation there.
The Sterling Syrup Works of Sterling
sent last spring the seed of forty var
ieties OF sorghum to Louisiana to
have them grown there and analyze !
The analyses show that the same cane
grown in Kansas is very much better
sugar making material than the Lou
'siana canes of the same variety. The
same is true Of the Arkansas grown
varieties. 1t is claimed that cane
grown in Kansas is richer in quality
and greater in quantity, besides being
grown cheaper than the same can be
produced in California, Colorado, Ten.
nessce, Mississippi or Minnesota. The
great industry promises to be a mine
of wealth to the vast prairie of the
West, and consumers all over the land
may soon indulge in sweets to their
hearts content.-Amcrican Farm

What is the matter With the lane
o.. In this district? The answer II
nl.;r Il should be removed to I
more centras and accessible position
than Oberlin. The time was whe1
Oberlin was the best place for it, but
that time has gone by. The best point
in the district is that where the people
of the district may find the easiest
access. Without derogating in the
least upon Oberlin, Atwood, Bird City,
Hoxie, Goodland or any other point
IN northwest Kansas, We may say that
a glance at the rsilWad map OF this
portion of the state is SUFFICE "
convince any one that Colby offers
the most advanta geous and most con-
yenient situation for all parts of the
lane district of any within it. The L.,
K. & N. railway connects Colby with
Sheridan and Decatur counties on the
east and with Sherman county on the
west The L. & e. railway connects US
with Sheridan county on the east and
by late survey with Sherman and
CHEYENNE counties on the west and
northwest. There is but little doubt
of the B. & NJ. railway, within short
time, building on its line of survey
from Decatur county to Colby. Tie
only counties in the land district un-
connected from Colby by rail are
Rawlins and Cheyenne and the drive
from both these to Colby is much
easier and shorter than to Oberlin. 1t
is to the interest of the whole district
that the land offices be removed to
Colby, from Oberlin, and, except, that
te mporarily, 1t might detract from the
business of this latter place, in case of
removal at all, it is to her decided in
terest that Colby be selected. The
counties of Rawlins, Cheyenne, Sher-
man, Thomas and Sheridan being the
last settled are now moro interested
than any others in all government land
b usiness in this district, and attention
should be paid to their interest and
convenience in location of the place
in which to transact the land business
of the district. We submit that for
the interest of all, Colby offers greater
advantages for the whole than any
other place within the district.

THOSE

The Northern statesmen were asked
by the roll call TO say what they
thought about the great Reading strike,
which includes about 10000 workmen
and their families, and also an issue be-
tween labor and capital, which is the
most important n In ten years.
The statesmen generally are said 10
have lodged the issue. OF course 1t is
cruel for the Herald reporter TO put a
statesman suddenly on the rack OF the
interview and expect him to confess
TO crime to make himself parteep'
crininis in order 10 retrieve bis
fault and throw himself or the mercy OF
the count Of public opinion. The re-
porter caught scores of statesmen ION
the fly" end got enough out Of them to
make a confession Of ignorance, though
the pleading statesmen tried to beg OIL
with the plea that they were not prepared
TO give an opinion. The reporter main
tanned that on such an important sub
ject a statesman ought TO be informed
and be able to express an opinion, and
the ribald editor says that the plea of
being "busy" is nonsense just at this
time after the holidays.
The point is that the average American
polIiici IN is q fraud, and it was shown
when a few years ago it was proposed to
put two electric buttons on each desk in
Congress, one for aye and the other fol-
no., to save O vast amount Of time, and the
House sat down on the proposition

they were so lazy that they could not
study a question but must wait to sec

The plan for a Mechanics Institute
was first elaborated by the TIMES a year
ago, and we explained then that the
capitalists and employers Of Richmond
were anxious to establish such an insti'
tuition in the interest of developing the
mechanical genius of the State OF Viz
einia which has no venue by which to
seek attainment and education.
The men of means who find this a way to
show their disposition to benefit the
working men began to recognize amutual
benefit exchange Of education, the one
furnishing the means and the other The
brains and study. Now let us explain
this thing briefly again. The farming
interest and the mechanical arts are on
two different lines, and if anybody sup
poses that the two can be successfully
worked together in an exhibition that
will display corr and electricity, pigs and
steam. science and oats on the same
grade they are mistaken. The farmer Is
the nearest man 10 the hearts of all men.
but you cannot make him pull together
with a man who is Studying engines and
machinery, and nature will beat anybody
who tries the idea.
A great agricultural State can hold an
exhibition of its products and offer pre-.
miums to those of other States, but the
proposed Mechanics Institute is an Ut
terly different thing, and you cannot
bring the schemes together without
sacrificing at least one.
We know whereof we speak aud hope
that if the capital is wanted to establish
the Mechanics Institute as it should bt
that there will be no amalgamation with
the Agricultural Society.

We published yesterday q compilation
of the various opinions of the press,
preachers, and politicians on the text Of
Mgr. Preston's alleged assertion that the
Catholic should follow st. Peter in
politics as well as religion. 1t is not the
part Of a newspaper TO deal with strictly
religious affairs. We must leave that
subject to the clergy except when
spiritual and moral ideas are falsiied by
the uses and purposes that belong to a
different power in human affairs.
We do not presume 10 tell preachers
what they should say or what the con-
~gregation should think, but we do think
that DR.. McGlynn is attempting TO dema-
gogue the church, and that Mgr. Preston
had better recant If he has been reported
rightly. st. Peter has nothing to do
with the part of a political boss.

the church a medium of ward politics in

II Mgr. Preston rightly represents the

conclusion would be that the Pope wanted
to erect q political power that be lost.

pect all sects Of religion that represent

any sect attempts to 60 into politics that
moment the people will see that the Mas.

\ Chattanooga grocer, being greatly
troubled By flies, put tweuty-one sheets of
sticky fly paper about his store. In the
evening he gathered them up, aad noticed
how much heavier they were, being COW
cred with flies. lie weighed the twenty
one sheets and found they weighed seven
pounds. Then lie put twenty-one fresh
sheets on the scales aud they weighed our
pounds aud four ounces. Thus the flies
weighed two pounds twelve ounces. BE
found that there were twenty dies to each

had 1886 square inches and GEO flies, and
the twenty one sheets had al, 1870 flies,
Thus one may ascertain the weight OF q
