VANCE AND THE MILLS BILL.

The Boston Posts Dem.) Washington
dispatch represents Mr.. Vance as ready
to vote for the Mills bill, if only the
tobacco business can be changed. Ii
says he doesn't belong to the Randall
cabal," and he only needs to have
tobacco fixed to go in for Mills. This is
interesting and plausible. We all know
Vance used to preach free trade. His
paper was free trade paper, and. if he
hadn't locked up the only copy of it
whose owner considered worth preserv-
ing (his own copy, he would have been
exposed in a most entertaing way. He
was nominated on free trade platform
and then hauled in and showed out
again on protective foundation. If he
follows his early preaching he will find
it easy to vote for the Mills bill. Tobacco,
of course. must be looked after-that is
to fool the farmers of this tobacco grow
ing district. But they viii not be caught
again by any such chaff. Cleveland.
himself, III his presidential message,
declared that the internal revenue tax
on tobacco hurt nobody and ought to

the ghost of chance for the nomination
of whom the same cannot be said with
equal truth: The profound Globe seems
to have lost sight of the great central
fact that it is the Republican party,
united, harmonious and determined, that
is going to win the battle of 1883 and
not any particular candidate who may
have the good fortune to receive the
nomination. While this is true the man
who the party shall choose as its candi-
date is not going to be a mere stoughten

THE CENTRAL STATE.

The most interesting feature in the
June number of Harper's Magazine, at
least to Kansans and those outside the
state who are concerned in the progress
and development of the state, is twelve
page article by Robert Hay, U. S. G. S.,
under the title of 1.-The Central State:
Its Physical Features and Resources, be
ing an accurate description not only of
the physical formation Of the state, but
of its commercial and industrial develop
ment, educational advantages. etc. There
is brief mention Of several of the most i'm
pOrtant cities and towns, accompanied
with number of illustrations, views OF
streets, public buildings, etc. The best
view is that of North Main street, Wich-
ita, from point just north of the Occi-
dental hotel, south to First street Of
this city the writer briefly says: witch
Ia, which now leads in population, is of
very rapid growth. The Arkansas river

overcome the difficulties which have
hitherto stood in the way 81 using the
ordinary petroleum of commerce as
motive power for engines. 1t this they
have now fully succeeded, as was dem
onstrated by petroleum engine which
was recently inspected ar the London
Office, IS Queen Victoria street. In this
engine the OIL is placed IN closed tank
inside the foundation OF the engine
and ar is pumped into this tank until a
pressure Of acoat five pounds 10 the
square inch is obtained. The oil is then
mixed with air until it is formed into
vapor, after which it passes into a closed
iron vessel or yaporizer where it is
heated. and from which it is admitted
INTO the engine cylinder and ignited by
means Of an electric spark. The spark
Is obtained from small primary battery
capable of doing about thirty hours
work without attention, and which can
be renewed at a very small cost. In
starting the engine the vaporizer is
heated for few minutes, after which
the necessary heat is obtained from the
exhaust products of combustion while
on their way 70 the chimney. The cylin-
der Is water jacketed, the water being
kept IN circulation by small pump.
After it has once been started the engine
works automatically. preparing its own
source of power, heating its charge, cool
ing its cylinder and supplying its own
spark for ignition. The great point
here is that only ordinary petroleum is
used, which, moreover. is entirely con-
sumed, leaving no residue whatever. the
combustion being complete. The cost
of working this engine, taking the oil at
the present price, is stated to be little
more than half penny per horse power
per hour. The engine is simple in con-
struction and is well adapted for use
where steam is inadmiSsible and coal gas
is not obtainable. 1t has been thoroughly
tried and proved in practical work before
being brought out

BECAUSE He READS.

Ii there Is one reason more than an
other which makes the American work
ingman a friend of the tariff it is because
he is intelligent and can read. Education
has proved in more than one sense of the
word a safeguard of the republic. 1t is
the foundation on which the great econ
Omic principles which have met with
successful tests in this country, firmly
rest. The American wOrkingman not
only knows of his own condition but he
knows the condition Of workingmen in
other states and in other nations. He
knows very well that so far as he is him
self concerned the tariff system enables
him to receive good wages and to pro-
vide comforts and Injuries for his nome,
that he could not get without it. He
knows also that this same system works
the same beneficent results in all parts
of the country. And he furthermore
knows that the absence OF tits reSponsi lie
for much of the suffering and distress
of workingmen in the old world. He
can read and he does read and knows in
this way that the lot of the American
workipgman is superior to that of any
other on the globe. 1t is too late in the
century now for the Democratic party
to force any free trade notions upon the
workingmen of this land. There have
been too many school houses established
and too many intelligent and educated
children grown up to become intelligent
and educated citizens. to be deceived by
the faIlacies of free trade. As long as
the American workingman can read so
long viii he be a protectionist.

After exhausting himself in trying to

Cleveland will be his own successor at
