ENGLEWOOD ELATED.

To the Editor OF the Eagle.
We take pleasure in saying to your
many readers that we have passed the
stage of mere existence. We now live.
The rains and the sunshine are develop
ing vegetation beyond the anticipations
OF the most sanguine; and to these hope
full and full assuring omens the railroad
company seems to be vieing with nature
in bestowing benefits. Yesterday Mr.
FILLMORE of the railroad company was
here and finally located the round house
and machine shops. Messrs. Holmes.
Daggett & Co., gave them twenty acres
more in their addition to give sufficient
room for the necessary buildings and the
fourteen additional sidetracks.
The amount given by the owners of
the addition is now $50 feet wide, through
a good portion Of the 10 acres. This is
very generous in the young men, when
compared with additions in other towns.
The work that is to begin here forthwith,
will certainly make this a liberal town
at Englewood.
We had much on the surface for which
to rejoice, but still we are not content
with things visible, we now are prepared
to put three thousand dollar hole in the
ground, and you need not be astOnished
to hear of much wealth being brought
up from below.
We now have, also, a board of trade
organization; so it may be readily seen
that none who come to this place will
need to pine for any Of these auXiliaries
of modern civilization. A good brass
band. good church and Sabbath school
advantages, coupled with a good mer-
camille trade, makes this a place certainly
to be desired and sought
There is a good acreage being planted
in this county, but there are many fields
where sod was broken last year that par
ties can plant and take all they raise.
Parties east would do well to improve
this opportunity.
The time will soon come when all this
land will be in good demand. AS
we have before Said, a sufficient
amount can be irrigated to produce
all the corn wheat and vegetables need
ed, and the remainder of the land can
be used for cane and cotton, which can
be raised regardless of drouth. We
shall all have sense Suffici ent after
while to suit our efforts to the provisions
of nature.
Still another evidence Of thought
While we write a courier informs US that
Mr.. Daggett, cashier of the bank, and
Miss Beach, the only daughter of one of
leading merchants, were just joined in
the sacred bonds of matrimony. So

THE PRESS VERSUS SCHOOLS.

the ground that. thus modified, the COM

TRUSTS AND TRADE UNIONS.

New York Indepeudeat
To the superficial observer there may
appear TO he no resemblance between a
trust and trade union, bat by taking a
broad and comprehensive view Of So
ciety it will be seen that they are very
much alike.
The evidence in the investigation of
trusts by our state and national authori-
ties has been widely presented TO the
public. Trusts are simply combinations
for the advantage Of the insiders at the
expense Of the outsiders. All combina-
tons are open to this charge, but all are
not necessarily contrary to public policy.
Where. either trusts on trade unions
limit production. absorb the food OF tbs
country, prevent competition. and dis
courage the teaching Of trades 70 our
young men, they come within the proper
sphere Of investigation, control, and
condemnation.
These combinations work disastroUsly
in two CLASSES Of our community. They
prevent persons Of moderate capital from
succeeding IN many branches Of busi-
ness. and they smother the ambition OF
our young men BY dlscountenAucl1S the
apprentice system
This whole iniauity should be exposed
and pr0Dt-1 from the top - the bottom

SENATOR PLUMB AND THE UNION
SOLDIERS.

The old soldiers of Kansas and of the
nation have no more devoted friend than
Senator Plumb. He has defended them
upon the floor of the United States sen
ate many times when assailediby the Con-
federate brigadiers. and in every instance
has proven himself amply able to expose
the methods of the exConfederate lead
ers in opposing the measures of justice
to the old soldiers of the country.
The speech of Senator Plumb on March
/. in reply TO an attack of Senator Vest.
of Missouri, on the veterans of the late
war, and the dependent pension bill,
then before the senate for discussion, Is
one of the ablest ever delivered in that
assembly. Senator Plumb was gallant
Union soldier. He went to the front
among the first and devoted his services
10 the cause of freedom. What he says
comes from a heart that beats IN sym
pathy with every man who suffers by
disease or wound contracted IN that
memorable war.
In his opening remarks upon the de-
pendent pension bill, Senator Plumb
said:
Therefore. this IS not new question, and
il Is not one OF those questions which in
ply. of doing that which is in the line upon
which.we have already moved. and which i
justified on the ground that the government
owes all that it is substantially able 10 pay
to those men who have defended IL under
arms; and should hope the same feeling
which prompted the senator from Mis-
souri, 20 give his unqualified support to
the Mexican pension bill would induce
him TO contribute as far Is IN his power 20
making this DILL not only just but liberal
IN its provisions, and then contribute 70 lts

their support or suffering from the InIs-
fortunes of physical disability and Of &c
Ginning years, should not be tempered by
some recognition at least from the national
treasury, which should. if not wholly
adequate, be at least some indication OF
appreciation of the services they rendered
when their service was SO greatly needed.
Referring TO the close of the war. and
the return of the Union soldiers to their
homes and fireSides, the senator says:
They went back TO the places from which
they had severally come There was no
disorder when they went On the contrary,
their presence became the sign OF order.
As was said of Cromwell's soldiers, they
could be told because they were the most
industrious, the most law abiding, the
best citizens. Since their discharge they
have performed great services TO the re-
public. Their army service had wldened
their horizon and made them more am
bilious. They realized fully while IN the
service the power they had. When they
went back to the places from which they
had come the surroundings were narrow
by comparison. They wanted more room
and verge: and so they took wife and child
rem and went west. And then II happened
that succeeding and as a result OF the war
there was the greatest heglra OF modern
times. The Union soldier was seeking LOT a
home west OF the Mississippi. he found IL
on the prairies of Kansas and Nebraska,
Dakota, in the mines. and CO the wide
ranches of Colorado He has peopled new
states, created new territories, wiped
desert of the map, and developed the
resources of a new country with q com,
pleteness and rapidity OF which we had
before no experience.
The Union soldiers have done more.
They have gone beyond the limits OF the
country into foreign lands. General Grant
told me in the last conversation L had
with him, no. many months before he
was stricken with that malady which
finally eliminated in his death, that he
had rare pride in the fact that the Amerl-
cans whom he met abroad and who were
the best examples of self reliance, man
hood and energy were chiefly men who had
served in the Union army.

The senate in refusing to consider the
Canadian fisheries treaty in open session
has simply adhered to the old rule of Sc
crecy in the discussion of treaties which
has prevailed since the organization of
the government, and the refusal to de-
part from that rule when there was
chance to hurt the candidacy of a polit-
ical opponent who is prominent candi-
date for reelection to the presidency, IS
creditable TO the sense of fairness and
senatorial dignity which actuated the
Republican majority in the United States
senate. After doing this. TO have such
journals as the Baltimore Sun declare
that the refusal to discuss the treaty in
open session is only to prevent the ad-
ministration from getting credit for the
settlement OF the vexed dispute, must he
rather disgusting to Democratic sena-
tors.

GOING TOO FAR.
Emporia Republican.

Emporia Republican.
In the Sedgwick county convention Colo
mel Hallowell, who was endorsed as Sedg-
wick's choice for delegate at large to Chi
cago, made a speech in which he used this
language: Sometimes feel as if | would
rather go to defeat following the lead of
the Plumed knight of Maine than see any
other man nominated" The declaration
was received with wild cheers, showing
that many others of the convention were
possessed of the same feeling. No doubt
thousands of Republicans throughout the
country feel the same way: And yetlt Is
not Just the right feeling for Republicans
to have. What the country needs just now
more than anything else is Republican
administration of the government Ger
tainly it would be source of great graft
fication to the party to know that it had
fully wiped out the disgrace of 1884 by the
election this year of Blaine ever Cleveland
no other form of victory could be quite SO
complete and satisfying as that. But yet,
the main point is to rid the country of
Democratic misrule, and If that could be
more certainly accomplished by the nomi-
nation of some one of its other illustrious
leaders, it would surely be the duty of the
Republican party to forego Mr.. Blaine.
There seems to be no sufficient reason
for believing that Blaine is not the strong
est as well as the most popular man in the
and hence he can be supported from the
best of motives. But in expressing will
ingness to follow Blaine to defeat rather
than any other candidate to victory, Col
onel Hallowell goes a little too far. There
are plenty of other good Republicans, de-
serving of the party's favor, who would
no doubt give the country as safe and
beneficent, if not as brilliant, administra-
ton as Mr.. Blaine. The welfare of the
nation and of the party is the considera-
ton of chief Importance.
Col. Hallowell is very level headed on
the presidential situation, being i'll full
accord with his party. When recalling,
however, how meanly Blaine was beaten
in the last hours of the canvass, four
years ago, by lie, by damnable treach-
cry meath the cover of a preachers cloak
he feels at times as does nine out of ten
Republicans, that the eternal fitness of
things demand that the present flicker
ing administration should be doused by
the man they defrauded and who is yet
the ideal statesman. the typical Ameri-
can, James G.. Blaine. Hallowell will be
in full accord with the Kansas delega-
tson to Chicago.
