NOT WORTH THE AMMUNITION.

Within the past week we have re-
ceived several copies of Chicago paper
Of date Of January IA, containing col
umn article under the caption of 1.-The
Sunf1ower State, which purports to have
been sent as a special dispatch from
Hutchinson, Kan. The copies of the
paper referred to were no doubt sent to
the EAGLE by friends of Wichita, upon
the idea that the EAGLE, being Wichi-
ta's special champion, would of course
want to see the misrepresentation and
ISLANDERS upon this city and state. which
constitute the makeup of the ARTICLE in
question, denounce the ISLANDERS and i'm
pale the slanderer before the public as
debased malefactor, which he is. There
was time when such vaporings would
have done the city an injury, but not
now. Wichita's identity is recognized
throughout the land; her position as a
commercial. manufacturing and educa-
tional center is too firmly established,
and its full fruition of success secured
to be jeopardized by the malicious
diatribes of hunters for mares
nests. The writer's of such stuff
seem not to know that one fact
accomplished in the direction of the sue
cess of an enterprise or undertaking, of
whatever character, refutes volumes of
skeptical theories and inuendoes prompt
ed by envy or malice or hate or all com
bined. That is Wichitas position: she
has ''got there in elegant shape, if we
may be permitted the use of the slang
phrase, despite the studied and persistent
efforts Of the army of slanderers who
have done their utmost to cry her down
As to the state of Kansas, it were waste
of words to SO much as refer to the
calumnies attempted to be cast upon it.
Its past history and present condition are
the best vindication that can be offered
when any is needed.
We appreciate the solicitude of friends
in these matters and only make refer
ence to them for their sakes, and not
that such publications require to be
noticed or are occasion for the slightest
concern.

AS TO DAKOTA.
Omaha RepuhIican

Omaha Republican.
The New York Press. edited by man
who has lived in a state adjoining that
territory. and therefore ought TO know
better. advocates the admission OF Dako-
ia as one state. 1t points to New York
as an example of the advantages of a
large state. Is not the Press aware that
if Dakota is divided on the forty-sixth
parallel either half will still be nearly
twice as large as New York:
The editor. of the press must be famii-
lar with the reasons why Dakota should
be divided. The sections are not. and In
the very nature of things cannot be,
homogeneous. They are as widely sep
arated in interests as Iowa and Mis-
souri,, and much more SO than either half
of Dakota or Minnesota The progress
OF one-haf is constantly retarded by the
hostility of the other. Southern Dakota S
staple Is corn: north Dakota's wheat.
The great lines of railroad in the state.
except those along the border in the Red
river valley. run east and west. To reach
the territorial capital persons living In
southwestern Dakota must travel more
than one thousand miles. The sections
are evenly divided in the legislature, a
fact which results in extravaganza and
waste. Ii an appropriation is made for
public institution in south Dakota one
precisely like it must be provided for III
north Dakota. Over $500, 900 was appro-
priated in this way by the last legisla-
ture. not one-half of which was needed
or UNSUITABLE. No legislation which
is calculated to benefit either Sec
ton alone has any chance of success. A
fight over capital location which has
cost the people hundreds of thousands
of dollars, has been i'll progress for
twenty years. and is apparently no
nearer an end now than at the be-
ginning.
Then there is another reason why the
territory should be divided which should
be potent with congress. The people of
the territery want it. This fact has
been demonstrated time and again: but
the Press plays into the hands of the
Democratic party by reporting the false
hood-which is the only argument of
the enemies of Dakota-that the people
do not know what they want.
The people of the west are used to
that sort of talk from eastern men, but
not from western Republicans. Mr..
Hatton should make an occasional visit
to his old home. He is absorbing too
many narrow eastern ideas.

INGALLS, FOR PRESIDENT.
Gueda Springs Herald.

Gueda Springs Herald.
If the Kansas delegation are instructed
for anybody they should be instructed
for Ingalls, Mr. Ingalls, will be elected
if nominated. Every Republican in the
land believes it. There is not loyal Re-
publican in the land believes he would
be defeated. The surest and wisest thing
the national convention can do would
be to nominate the present vice-president
of the United States, John j. ingalls,.
Hundreds and thousands Of good Repub-
Leans believe that Mr.. Blaine cannot be
elected. Ingalls, would be a stronger
candidate than Blaine. He is as able a
man. He is vastly more Independent:
his Republicanism is as sound. radical
and deep-rooted as the political faith of
the man from Maine He has grown as
fast intellectually and in matters of
craftsmanship in the last ten years as
has Mr.. Blaine. His nomination would
arouse the enthusiasm of the old guard
of radicaIism. 1t would send the hats of
enthusiastic young men high into the air
with shout and hurrah. There are just
two Republicans who can poll Irish
Democratic votes-Blaine and ingalls,.
the latter as many as the former: but
Ingalls, would lose no Republican votes.
Blaine will. No gang of corruptionists
could run Ingalls, and stand at the door
to keep out honest Republicans. \
New Mexico clique of boodlers would not
find the way to the White house while
he was president. nor would a fool
preacher be suffered to give away the
whole battle by an afliterative phrase of
nonsense, impiety and mendacity.

A MATTER OF DUTY.

Some er-perspicuous person may
find it in their hearts to criticise DR.
Wilson for his plainness of speech in
condemning sin, whether in the openly
ungodly or profesSed Christians, but the
good man has abundant precedent in the
teachings and preaching of the great
ENemplar to justify the strongest lam
guage in dealing with the worlds great
curse--sin. Christ in upbraiding his
professed followers characterized them
often as ''hypocrites. and in addressing
the skeptics and unbelievers boldly de-
clared them generation of viperS:'
Yet we dare say no word or expression
uttered by Brother Wilson during his
labors here ever grated rs harsh!y upon
the ears Of those who sat under his
preaching rs did SUCH as we quoted
above from the mouth of the Savior. And
then there was the meek and lowly John.
who found it necessary in his dealings
with unrighteousness TO call things By
their right names. With him vice was

FROM STEVENS COUNTY,

PLEASANT VALLEY, Jan. II.
To the Editor of the Daily Eagle.
I have heard from Wichita, by letter,
that it is reported there that people are
freezing to death in Stevens county. |
wish to state that no one has been frozen
to death and the man and team that was
reported frozen between here and Hart
land is mistake. We have had % few
stormy days here but no one suffered
more than is common in any vicinity in
cold weather. One man froze the ends
of his fingers and one of his feet, and a
few had their ears frosted. That is
about all of the suffering there was here,
with the exception of some of us who
have not an abundance of means and
can't get everything we would like to
have to eat L. S.
