ply the act of a public enemy, who ought
to be treated as such.
Il denounce this circular as far trans
cending the bounds of legitimate politi-
cal discussion. | denounce it as crime
against Kansas. l denounce it as an In
famous attempt to destroy the credit and
good name of Kansas in order to serve a
political purpose. denounce its figures
and its statements concerning the IN
debtedness of Kansas people as false and
misleading. | denounce it as the act of
a public enemy. I denounce it as an in
Jury to every citizen of Kansas. l de-
nounce it from the standpoint of a clti-
zen of Kansas, interested in the growth
and prosperity of the state, as a SANDER
Gus, lying. malicious attempt to break
down the credit of our people and destroy
the development of Kansas.
kansas has been. ever since Its Or
ganization. Republican state. Its laws,
Its institutions, have been framed and
moulded by Republicans. Its growth
and development have been without
parallel in the records of American COM
monwealths. The Democratic party has
hated Kansas for thirty-three years. 1t
has DETAINED Kansas during all those
wears. 1t has sneered at its sentiment.
slandered its Institutions and laws, de-
preciated its prosperity and growth, IN
vented and given currency TO all man
ner of falsehoods that could injure the
credit and good name or the
state and endeavored. constantly and
maliciously to turn immigration and
capital away from Kansas. Our state
has grown and prospered IN spi te OF
the jealousy, the falsehoods, the defa'
nation of its enemies and mallgners al
home or abroad. 1t has triumphed over
drouths and grasshopper invasions and
demo ratio defamers and slanderers
and will continue TO triumph over them.
1t has better institutions of learning
more wholesome laws and more intel
ligent population than the state Senator
Vest represents. 1t has made greater
progress in thirty years than Missouri
has IN fifty. The western third of the
state has suffered during the past two
years from the effects of severe drouths
and the people of that section are dis
tressed by calamities of nature. But, a:
a whole, the people of Kansas are as
prosperous as those of any other state II
the nation. Kansas has within her lin
its as many happy and contented home:
in proportion to population, as any
other state. Her wealth is more equally
distributed than that of any other state
The sourceo of her prosperity are just "a
secure as those of any other state. He
Indebtedness, per capita, is smaller thar
that of most states in the union giving
Democratic majorities. In brief, the
people of Kansas are far more prosper
Gus, everything considered, than those
| of most of the states of the union.

The EAGLE has no desire to do Elder
Botkin any injustice and never will,
knowingly: but it cannot and will not
permit him to falsify its statement OF
fact when he does so 'ismply to further
his own personal aims and ambition as

EAGLE will take occasion to say that 1t
does not propose to abridge the personal
privileges of any citizen; it has not crltl-

anti-Republican ticket, per Sc, but be-
cause it thought and felt, and still
thinks and feels, that he has no moral
right to bedraggle his sacred calling and

has opposed Mr.. Botkin and his party
Just as it has any other and all other

POLICY VS.. PRINCIPLE.

The Mills bill. as introduced into the
house, had lime, marble, wood pulp,
wood screws, coal and iron ore on the
free list. Before it passed the house all
these items were restored to the list OF
dutiable articles; not because the great
majority of the Democrats in that body
did not want them on the free list, but
because of the effect it might have on the
election this fall. King Caucus SAID:
Policy, my boy, policy is the thing; prln-
ciple may do very well in its place, but
it will have no place in the fall elections.

there will probably be but few changes

Responsibility for the outrageous cir
cular issued by John NJ. Galloway last
week is naturally placed upon that per-
son. inasmuch as it is sent out over his
signature, but in point of fact he is no
more responsible for its publication and
its damaging effects upon the property
of the state than his fellow-leaders Of
the Democratic party of the state, and
of the party as a whole as for that, for we
have vet TO see an adverse criticism from
that party of the document or of the act
Of promulgating it. There is no doubt
that it is endorsed by the party, and we
submit to every intelligent, patriotic
Kansau who can rise above party bias
whether or not it is the proper thing
for the best interests Of the citizens of
this state whatever their political bias
to give that party encouragement by
supporting its candidates at the polls:

Pneumonia and Its symptoms.

Pneumonia may occur in connection with
bronchial and other affections Of the air
passages induced by taking cold" But if a
person has first been attacked with symptoms
Of a cold, and they have existed for day or
more, he need have little fear that pneumonia
will set i'll as a consequence. People who
have caught cold, and are suffering from
acute bronchitis-have painful, tearing
cough, are "sore across the chest etc.-are
very often apprehensive of the more serious
disease under consideration. There is scarcely
greater danger OF its appearing then than
there is while they are in their usual good
state of health. We emphasize this fact, for
we know that INSCRIPTIONS practitioners
steal no little capital by pretending, Us they
often do to break up pneumonia" prevent
patients from having IT, etc. No immediate
treatment can be applied by them or other
physicians which will prevent pneumonia, IN
any condition Of the system. Ii the disease
is coming, it Will come in spite of medical
interference
What symptoms should lead a person to
suspect that he has pneumonia An attack
is usually sudden, and generally commences
with "A chill, frequently accompanied by what
arc called TlSOTs shlNeIlhS, CHATTER ih5 VI ehV
teeth, etc. In the majority of cases this
occurs during the night, and after exposure.
The chill is severe and prolonged, lasting
from half an hour 10 several hours. About
the same time, or soon afterward, pain Is
felt underneath the nipple on one-the al
lected- This pain is sharp, and IS de
scribed as 'stabbing;' it is aggravated by
coughing, sneezing, and when the patient
takes "long breath Fever sets IN early
and is one Of the first symptoms. 1t usually
runs very high, as is indicated by the great
heat of the skin One popularity, seldom
noticed in other affections where there IS
high fever, is often observed in this disease:
