The howl Of desperation often assim
Hates the whoop Of exultation.

With the invasion of Texas on the
south by Infatuated Mexicans for hostile
purposes, and military preparations and
war talk among the Canadians on the
north. it would seem that the chief exec
utive at Washington is liable to have &C.
casion to display some Of the nervy quail
tiles so Justify claimed for him by his
patronizing partisans. 1t may be OBJ
served, however, that fair quality Of
statecraft is more essential iu the present
emergency, in both directions, than the
profession of courage alone, even of a
Titan. The fact that we have nothing to
fear from either of our neighbors renders
it all the more imperative that matters
in which they are concerned should be
dealt with with the utmost discretion as
well as frmness.

REV. BOFKIN's CONSISTENCY.
To the Editor Of the Daily Eagle.

To the Editor Of the Daily Eagle.
In open conference in:.Wichita, March
1888, Rev. Botkin stated that ''Prohibi-
ton in Kansas was a success" that
prohibition did prohibit" Now, if the
above statement is true, l would like to
inquire, was this not accomplished
through the Republican party? and if so,
is it consistent for him 10 try to break
down that party and substitute the Dem
ocratic party. who are openly avowed
enemies to prohibition? He certainly
knows that success only lies between
these two parties.
Again. Is it consistent for him to al
low important church interests In his
district 10 suffer for want of his atten-
ton by devoting more than half of his
time TO political work:
Again. Does his arduous and constant
political work prepare bis heart and mind
for the solemn and responsible duties OF
preaching the word and administering
the ordinance of God3 Will he please
answer? 4 CONSISTENT PgoHIEITIoNIsT.

ANOTHER DAILY SUSPENDS.

The Newton Republican, one of the
brightest morning dailies in all the
west, certainly in all Kansas, suspends.
Without expressing any regrets-for the
Republican was not in the way of the
EAGLE, as the proprietors of that paper
well know-and without suggesting that
other Kansas dailies must inevitably
follow the example of the Republican,
we quote the two first paragraphs of the
Republicans suspension announcement:
''The Newton Publishing company re-
grets to announce that it is no longer
able to bear the financial loss incident to
the publication of a daily morning news
paper in the city of Newton.
The Republican has been run at a loss
from the start. The enterprise has been
sustained, however, from month to
month in the hope of improving times,
by the personal sacrifices of compare
lively few of the stockholders, who are
now at the end alike of their hopes and
their resources. They had no expecta-
ton of realizing anything from the paper
as an investment, but there is limit to
the amount they are prepared to lose"

The reason assigned for Mr.. Ebey's non

The reason assigned for Mr.. Ebey's nom
appearance according to appointment on
Saturday evening is that he was suffering
from slight attack of malaria! fever. 1t
is reported that if he does not improve he
will be unable keep his appointments this
week. 1t is u question whether slight
attack of malarial fever would so pros
trate Mr.. Ebey as to render him totally
unfit for even the sending of message
announcing his sickness to the parties who
used their best endeavors to secure him a
large audience. Wellington Standard,
Dem.
1t may be unkind of us to be telling
tales out of school, but the common
understanding hereabouts is that it is
not so much malaria as a stroke of
paralysis, the effects of Judge Peters
speech last Friday, upon the Seventh
district champion of ''N1axims instead of
markets" 1t was thought for time by
his groomsmen that he would not re-
cover from the prostration sufficiently to
again take the stump, but the departure
of Judge from the district and liberal ap-
plication of Democratic restoratives, it is
now believed, will bring him up a-stand-
ing again.

The exactions of the jute trust of late
in advancing the price of cotton bagging
to such point as to rob the planter of
what little profit he derived from that
staple, has brought out ruling from the
treasury department that will give great
relief to the cotton planter. if it does not
practically burst the trust. The impo-
sition of the import duty upon bagging
that had been used for covering cotton
when returned to this country. served to
preclude its use, and worked directly
into the hands of the trust. Now that
such bagging, if of home manufacture,
may be reimported, duty free, it can
and will be used to break down the COM
bination that controls the production and
price of that necessary article, if the
factors and exporters will but interest
themselves and prevent the returned
bagging from falling into the hands of
the combine. The future of cotton pro-
ducnon in the south depends very largely
upon the protection from the grasp of
the jute octopus through the operation
of this reimporting scheme, unless the
government shall interfere directly and
smash the combine.

With the records of the last two Dem
ocratic administrations in New York
fresh in mind, in their treatment of mat
tiers directly affecting labor-CIeveland's
vetoes of a number of bills passed by
the legislature for the benefit of wage
workers, and Hills actions in the same
line-we say in view of these things it
would be singular indeed if labor organ
izations in that state, political or other
wise, should fail to rebuke them when
ever opportunity is presented. 1t is a
matter of some surprise, however, that
the Union Labor party in its state con-
vention should have felt impelled to
come out squarely and endorse the Re-
publican state ticket, but such was the
case. If the members of that party
would but look at the political as well as
business situation throughout the coun-
try as it is, laying aside prejudice the
while, they could not fail to see that the
only hope of obtaining the relief they so
much desire lies in the success of the
party that has always stood for the in
terests of the common people, the Re-
publican party.

BROOKS AND BOTKINS PARTY.

In the Illinois Methodist conference at
Springfield on Monday. during a discus
sion of the temperance question, Rev.
Peter Wallace. who is an acknowledged
prominent divine not only but who
stands very high in the Illinois confer
ence, said, in the course of a speech,
that he had been a Prohibitionist for
fifty years: also favored the majority re-
port, and said he was a staunch friend
10 local option. He had fought through
the war. and he noticed that the army
never attempted to capture all the
strongholds of the enemy at once, but
they took them one at a time. He
charged that the present method of
pushing prohibition was especially de.
signed to destroy the Republican party.
He asserted this, he said. not on his own
authority, but on the authority of John
P. st. John, who had personally told
him such was the object of the Prohibi-
ton organizations.

Whether it be the result of spirited ri
valry between competing points or
shortage in the worlds crop that has
stimulated the price of wheat, concerns
the producer only so far as such effect
continues. What gratifies the farmer is
the fact that wheat is worth 20 to %
rents more now than it was a month or
Fix weeks ago. 1t is doubtful that the
price will go much above current ruling
figures, but il is certain that it will not
20 as low again for several months as it

For that which my soul loyeth best,

Prof. Shelton on Wheat.

The Industralst.
So far as the possibilities of injury tC
the wheat crop from insect enemies Is
concerned, we have only this 10 say
The season that is favorable to the
wheat crop is always damaging one to
insect pests. The question, after all. is
one of season.
The profitableness of the wheat crop
in Kansas is question that we have nc
thought of discussing here. We wish,
however, to state single fact: Since
1SS0-during eight seasons-Vve have
cropped with wheat an accurately me s.
ured acre OF ground Of only orSinary
fertility. During all this time the iand
has never had an application OF manure
or other fertilizer, or restorative treat
ment of any kind. During two years
1856 and 1SS6-7-the crop was totally
lost by winter-killing: yet the average
yield of the acre during the eight years,
and including, of course, the two fall
ures. has been something over twenty
bushels. / leave it To farmers to make
their own deduction from these facts.
