THE blow on Thursday night last was
the most severe of the season. Many
vessels sought safety in the harbor at
this place. Some had suffered damage.
Among them was the J. s. Watson which
had four iibs and the mizzen sail ripped,
the John O'Neill which had its bulwarks
stove in, the j. S. Richards with torn
jib and fore Sail and the Mineral State
with sails so badly riddled that it had to
be toMed from the canal to this place.

Mr.. WAGNER's action in appearing be-
fore the senatorial convention and pledg-
ing himself to support his former OPP
ponent at the coming election is an adj
ditional proof of his manly devotion to
the party of which he is a member.
There are few men in the county who
have given more disinterested support to
the party than Mr.. Wagner has, and his
action at the convention shows that he
can rise superior to any feeling of disap-
pointment.

THE schooner John Wesley ran into
the approach Of Eighth street bridge on
Thursday night and made a pretty COM
plete wreck OF it. The schooner was
coming in at lively rate and finding
that the bridge could not be swung in
time, dropped its anchor. Its momentum
was such that the anchor was dragged
until the bridge stopped farther progress
The captain paid $40 as partial compen.
sation for the damage done.

ANOTHER SURPRISE.

1t seems to be the desire of our people
that the Sumner county delegates TO the
Republican state convention shall sup
port Hon NJ. NJ Murdoch for governor if he
desires their votes, and we understand the
delegates have decided to do so. Mr.. Muir
dock and his paper have been OF 50 much
benefit To the lower Arkansas valley and
both have been such faithful friends of our
sections interests that such Il recognition
of his services would be not only proper
but an endorsement which he and the city
of Wichita would appreciate. If all the
surrounding counties should conclude to
the same thing Mr.. Murdoch would start
in with very fair vote.-trom yelling
ton Press.
There can be no question touching the
feelings of appreciation of at least one
for words like the above. Sumner and
and Sedgwick counties; thestwo greatest
counties in the state, have always work
ed tremendously, and the EAGLE has
been for both. But whatever the dele
gates to the state convention from Sum
ner county may conclude to do touching
their vote or their support, the editor Of
the EAGLE will know no differences in
the future. nor in his work for the sue
cess hereafter, of our friends in Sum
ner. While we may be able to DO fully
as much as editor as we could as COVER
nor, for our great valley, such assurances
as are contained III the above are not the
less gratifying and encouraging. As to
being a candidate we cannot even think
it a possible or remote contingency.

We see by some of our up-river ex-
changes that the matter of irrigation, by
means of bitches leading out from the
Arkansas river, is still engaging the at
tention of the people in some localities
The question of irrigation may be vital
one to those who are moving in the
matter, but we suggest that it will be
well for them TO look into the legal
aspect of the question which involves
the rights of others who live contiguous
to the stream below them to the unin-
terrupted flow of the water in its original
channel, before they incur any expense
or involve themselves in any undertak-
ing that may cost them more to let go
than its completion would if undis-
