G.. A. r. MATTERS.


HEADQUARTERS DEPT KAN. G. A. r. J
EMPoRIA, April 21, 1883.
Post No. 463, O. A. r., which was
organized at Argentine a short time ago
has recently chosen the name of Captain
Kingscott, in honor of one Of their com
rades, charter member, who died the
week succeeding the organization Of the
post. Captain Kingscott was veteran
OF the Mexican war, having served
through that war under General Scott.
He enlisted III the Federal army in
August, '61, serving as lieutenant IN the
Second Michigan cavalry, and was dis
charged as captain IN November, 1865.
When we review his fidelity 70, and
active service in the cause Of his country
we cannot fail TO understand the feel
ings and motives that actuated his com
rades when they adopted his name for
their post.
An application and charter fee was re-
ceived by Acting Adjutant General
Coulter yesterday for the organization Of
a new post Of the q. A T. at Waldo.

BISMARCK on PROTECTION.

Rochester Democrat Chronicle.
In the matter Of protection Of home
industries, both Germany and Russia
have followed the example Of the United
States. On May Il, 1882, Prince BIS
marck delivered powerful speech be-
fore the reichstag in favor Of protection.
His main argument WAS the experience
of the United States. He detailed that
experience as follows:
''The success Of the United States in
material development - the most
illustTious OF modern time. The Ameri-
can nation has not only successfully
borne and suppressed the most gigantic
and expensive war Of all history. but
Immediately afterwards disbauded It's
army, found employment for all Its
soldiers and marines, paid of
most Of its debts, given labor and
homes to all unemployed Of Europe as
fast as they could arrive within Its terri
tory, and still by system Of taxation 80
indirect as not 70 beperceived, much less
felt. Becruss II Is my deIibsr-
ate judgment that the prosperity Of
America Is mainly due to its system 81
protective laws, / urge that Germany has
now reached thgt point where II Is neces-
sary 10 initiate the tariff systern of the
United States"
Bismarck Is q statesman. and bis adop-
ton of tho American system Of protec-
ton is evidence enough of its value in
national develInent. His brief reference
tO the United States in his speech before
tht Reichstag bears more weight than AL
of the so-caiied arguments 81 the mug
wumps and British agents in .his country.

WICHITA'S BACKING,

There is one fact that the citizens,
property owners of Wichita should not
lose sight of, nor should its newspapers
neglect to impress it upon eastern inves-
ters, i. e., that this city is not growing
comparatively faster than the smaller
cities and towns of this section. If it
was it would be growing too fast. 1t is
simply sharing and at the same time re-
flecting the general prosperity. Natur-
ally the citizen of Wichita points with
PRIDE" first to the growth of his own
city; next to the progress of the empire
at the gateway of which it stands. He
would do this if from no other motive a
selfish one-it is the impulse OF nature.
A prosperous city amid unprosperous
surroundings would be an impossibility.
At least, its prosperity could not be last
ing.
So far as we know there is not an un-
prosperous city or town in Kansas. The
best evidence of the general business
condition of community is the appear
ance of its newspapers. If their columns
are filled with advertisements, you may
safely conclude that they are published
for busy people. If they have hollow,
hungry look, they partake of and betray
the condition of their surroundings. The
EAGLE receives upwards of three hun
dred Kansas newspapers in exchange,
and there is no one in the list but shows
liberal advertising patronage.
Another thing; Newspapers sometimes
boom" buEthey never do nor can cover
the real facts, which will crop out in
their news columns. Tried upon this
evidence, Kansas newspapers give testi-
mony TO universal prosperity in the
state.
The EAGLE refers to these facts be-
cause they are guarantees of Wichita S
continued prosperity. The city grows
because the bright, progressive cities
and towns that dot the vast territory
which stretches out in every direction,
and is made tributary TO Wichita by the
matchleSS system of railroads radiating
from here, grow and prosper, and they
find the sustenance which.adds to their
stature and vigor. in the main, in the
prosperity of the farming classes-the
real basis of all prosperity.
Rivalry between cities is a good thing.
II wakes up the sleepy and is conducive
TO enterprise. In point of population
and wealth Wichita has no rival in Kan
sas, but in enterprise it has several, and
it is not too big nor too self-opinionated
to learn from them where there Is infor-
nation TO be gained. Now and then
some newspaper refers 10 Wichita in a
way to imply that 1t is endeavoring to
fatten at the expense of neigbb0ring
cities. Nothing could be more unfair.
and nothing farther from the truth.
Wichita thrives upon their patronage
could not maintain itself otherwise-but
both profit from the relations. The EA-
GLE has time and again reverted to this
fact, nor has it refrained from sounding
the praises of the whole state-is as
prompt and IS vigorous in defending one
section as another.
There Is no more occasion for ill-feel-
ing and jealousy between Wichita and
any other section of the state than there
Is between the members OF the human
body. The one is dependent to a certain
extent upon the other. Cut of q man s
hand and while the rest OF the body may

COLD WATER AND CLOUDS.
Aprn ST. Nicholas.

April St Nicholas.
Did You ever stop TO think, when you
looked out of the window and saw dull,
gray clouds from which the rain was 50
suddenly pouring, and which seemed To
shut in the world ali around, that in re-
ality they extended over 4 very small
part of the country; that somewhere
else. perhaps only twenty or thirty or a
hundred miles away the sun was shining
ane all was bright and beautiful This
is really the case. For storms, however
long and dreary, do not extend over
many miles, and though il is always
raining at some place in the world, vet
always and at the same time il Is pleas
ant somewhere else, Now let us sec
why this Is.
suppose that on a warm summer
afternoon we were TO bring pitcher Of
clear, cool water, fresh from the well.
and TO place ii on the table in the dining
room. Now, no matter how carefully
we may have dried the pitcher before
bringing it in, we shall discover, if we
watch closely, that the outside soon be-
comes wet or misty. and that the mist
grows heavier and then gathers into
drops; and perhaps even runs down the
pitcher to the table. Now, where does
this water come from2 Not through the
sides of the pitcher; that is impossible;
but from the air. We cannot see IL.
perhaps, but still it is there in the state
of vapor. How came il therey Did you
ever notice after rain how i'll a short
time the puddleS became dry. and
how the moisture disappeared
from the grass and leaves as
soon as the sun shone out and the wind
blew: or did you ever notice that il you
left a pan of water out OF doors the wa
ter each day grew less and less, until
all was gone and the pan was dry?
All the water that was IN the puddles,
on the grass and leaves Except that
which soaked into the grouneb and in
the pan was taken up as vapor into the
air-has ''evaporated as we say. the
same thing happens when water
bods, only it then evapOrates moro
rapidly, and we can see the vapor
rising as a steam. If you live near
river, or in a country where there are
brooks, perhaps you can see this evapor-
alton actually taking place. Get up early
some morning before the sun rIses and
look out towards the river. You may
seee q long line of mist or fog, like
big white cloth. hanging over the
water Now, this mist is only the
water evaporating from the river, and
is Just now visible as fog because the
air is cool. After the sun has shone,
the air becomes warmed and the log
disappears, but the evaporation goes on
nevertheless. Indeed, IL Is going on con-
tinually. and all over the earth. 80 that If
the water did not return 10 us as rain.
snow and dew. all the oceans, lakes and
rivers would in time dry up and disap-
pear. All the trees, grass and plants
would then wither. and our beautiful
land would become as dry and parched
as the great desert of Sahara.

In letter of thanks TO the electors of
the Nord, General Boulanger modestly
says that France will hereafter mark the
date of his election TO the chamber as
the date of ''her true delive-ance" Also
that the people through him have made
known their will that there shall be a
constituent assembly and an end of the
present ''anti-Republican and usurping
constitution. Jules Ferry says that
Boulanger Is a mutinous. soldier, and a
hypocrlte TO boot, and a would-be Caesar
into the bargain, and withal plagiarist
and second edition of the Louis
Napoleon of before the coup d etat
The illustrious Blowitz concurs in this
view, but doesn't see how Boulanger can
make the game with the city of Paris
against him. We have an idea that old
Bouly is wilier wireworker that the
wisest of them wot.

LEI THE PEOPLE ACT.

Tothe Editor OF the Eagle.
1t has been the custom heretofore for
men who considered themselves fitted
for Office to get out and drum up sup
port and have themselves nominated.
We have been lucky even under this
custom. and Sedgwick county has here
tofore had very good men In office. But
times have changed and custom should
change in respect to selecting our Off
cials. Sedgwick county has become one
of the greatest counties and Wichita is
acknowledged to be the greatest city IN
the state. 1t is not now essential for a
man with sufficient brains to make him.
self felt in this community to travel
over the county to inform the people
that he is a fit man for Office. The
people are now informed in regard
to who is competent for office
and | think it would be good idea for
the politicians toshold off and give the
people chance at the deal to fill the
offices next fall. There is one thing of
Importance that should not be overlooked
be the people next fail, and that Is the
election of members of the legislature.
Sedgwick county should be represented
both in the house and the senate by men
equal in ability to any on the floor of
either house. We ought to be repre-
sented in the senate by some leading
man like William E. Stanley, who would
stand the equal of any man likely to be
a member of that body. If we could get
men in the house of equal ability of Mr..
Stanley, able, logical, clear headed law
yers, it would be well. viii the politi-
cions give us rest and let the people
try their hand just this once, and come
when they are bidden.
A REPUBLICAN.
Wichita eagle., 1888-04-22

In the fall of 1886 one of the good
ladies of New York, who claimed she
had a right to vote, insisted on voting.
She was arrested for illegal voting and
it was determined to test her case in the
courts. The lower courts decided against
her and the supreme court has just
reached decision affirming the decree
of the lower court, which found her
guilty :and sentenced her to one days
imprisonment. 1t is not probable that
this extreme penalty will be carried out,
but the case will have its effect in show
ing that without legislative enactment
especially granting the privilege the
courts do not recognize any natural law
allowing women TO vote.
