IHE LAUNCHING OF THE BALTIMORE, which has
already been twice postponed is still an indefinite
factor In naval affairs. When 1t was discovered
that the ways on which she was to slide were In
secure and insufficient, work was at once begun to
extend them out into the water and TO give them
crown, or to mske the surface line slightly
curved. But the recent heavy rains and prevailing
northeast winds have caused extra high water IN
the Delaware, so that for the past few days work
had TO be suspended on the building OF the ways
Low-tide mark has been at ordinary high water.
TDiS delay has upset all calculations as to the
OF the launcn, and Mr.. Charles Cramp, who was at
the Navy Department to-day, says that there is no
time settled upon, as great deal depends upon
the state OF Inc tides when the ways are finished.
SEcErARY WHITNEY paid an of1icial visit to the
Brooklyn navy-yard yesterday. but his arrival In
the naval transport Nina at 10 m. was at his re-
quest, unheraided by the usual salute. He was
received by Admiral Gherardi and escorted through
the yard. The steel cruiser Boston, which is 10
sail for South America to-day, Was inspected nrSL.
and then the Chicago and MiantonomOh. The Sec
retary also visited the new dock and the big sned

IS being laid. He had private conference with

Faith and FrettfM T.

Faith and fretting, or in other words. trust and
worry. are just oppostes. and are wholly incom-
patible. They can no more be combined than oil
and water. The existence of one must destroy
the other. If we exercise faith and trust. worry
and fretting will cease. While on the other hand,
if we yield to worry and fretting, then trust and
faith must die and the light of hope gives place
to the darkness of encouragement. Doubtless
every christian has proven this to be true. Now,
therefore, let us learn the wherefore of this mat
ter, and seek the remedy, for readily per-
ceive that our joy and success in the christian
life hinge largely OH this one point.
Please examine this scripture without faith
it is impossible to please Cod and remember
that to fret and worry is simply to doubt Gods
promises; and doubling is sin. 1t is wholly i'm.
possible to believe all Gods precious promises
and take him at his word. and then have occasion
for care and worry. We read. My God shall sup
ply all your needs-"all things shall work togeth-
er for good"-"no good thing shall be witheld"-
there shall no evil befall thee'-"I will be with
him in trouble and deliver him." These and a
hundred other promises are so strong and so per-
sonal that the only possible way that we can fret
is to say, can't accept Them can't believe God.
This doubling is one Of the worst forms of sim 1t
IS no WONDER tnat 1t steals away our religious eX-
perience the same as other SINS The bible plain
ly forbids all fretting. The remedy. then, is this
AS soon as the temptation to fret presents itself.
claim at once a suitable promise your own, and
trust in it. This will not only remove the tempta-
ton. but will also develop greater faith, while
fretting greatly weakens the faith already pos
sessed. Therefore. Fret not myself in any wise
to do evll''-"casting all your care Him, for he
careth for you."-Golden Censor.

JUSTICE TO DAKOTA.

The National committee did the Just
as well as the generous thing in deciding
to admit to the convention ten delegates
from Dakota, the same number the state
would have if it were in the Union. 1t
is not the fault of Dakota that it is kept
out of the family of states. 1t has the
requisite population two or three times
over. it has the material, mental and
moral resources, and all the elements of
creditable statehood, but the Demo
cratic party keeps it out. 1t would
have been in the Union years ago,
if the Republican party could
have admitted it, and so it is no
more than right that it should be treated
now as it deserves, not as it is rated by
the Democratic party. AS state with
its present population of 100000. it would
be entitled to two senators and three
representatives in congress, and there
fore ten delegates in the national conyen-
ton. As the Republican party believes
in doing justice to the territories, it gives
to Dakota and Washington territory,
also, the same representation that they
would have if they were states, as they
ought by right to be. The people of
those territories will never have justice
done them till the Republican party has
an opportunity to do it.

KANSAS POLITICS NOT AT HOME

The Atchison Champion denies that
Governor Martin is in the Smith-Simp-
son ring, declaring that Martin has done
nothing looking to Smiths nomination
for governor. The Commonwealth is
astonished at the declaration, or claims
to be, but it would be a great deal more
astonished if it believed that the Cham
pion meant what it says. When our
supreme commissioner-judge. Ben Simp-
son, gets home from the Chicago con-
vention there will be round up, or we
miss our guess, and if he don't get home
pretty soon we shouldn't be at all sur
pri5ed to see the Capital come out in a
like strain, declaring that Major Joe
Hudson wasn't for Smith either.
If Ben Simpson should happen to up
and die some day, we don't believe there
would be any politics left in Kansas.

anybody else Ben is, and has been for
years, all there is Of Kansas politics and

ABOUT SORGUM SUGAR.

The Fort Scott Monitor seems bit
perturbed over the action of congress in
appropriating one hundred thousand dol
lars to continue experimentation in sugar
making from sorghum cane, in view of
the success that has attended the expert
mentS Of Prof. Swenson at the Parkinson
works In that city. The Monitor seems
to apprehend that the claim of Swenson
to patent right to the invention or dis
covey may not be sustained by the
courts, although it assumes that control
OF the patent obtained by Swenson will
be thus sustained. The Monitors solicit
tude in the matter hinges upon the claim
OF Swenson and his associates to the ex-
elusive use and benefit of the process
which is covered by the Swenson patent,
for it is lat loss to see the utility of
further experiments by the government
in connection with the Parkinson COM
pany."
The question of Prof. Swenson's claim
upon the patent covering the process dis
covered or invented by him presents
ance OF the government the experiments
would probably neAer have been made,
and in view of the fact that Swenson was
placed In position by the government and
ustalned there as its employee would
seem to entitle the employer-the
governmental the beneficial results
of his efforts, as it must have sustained
the loss OF the expense if the expert
ments he'd been a failure. On the other
hand the success attending the expert
ments made by Swenson was not mat
ter of accident, for without aptitude,
native genius, scientific attainments, ETC.,
the experiments would have been car
ried on ad intinitum with failure the on
ly result. So as the matter rests at pres
ent it presents two-sided question.
Whatever may be the outcome of the
contest between the government and
Prof. Swenson over the potent question,
the success attending the experiments
thus far made fully warrants the prose-
cution of the researches in that direc-
ton by the government. The sugar sup
ply for this country is most important
consideration, one IN which every citizen
of the country is interested, and it is the
duty Of the government to aid in de-
veloping new sugar bearing produ cts or
in the discovery of processes for utilizing
to the best Advantage those already known
and employed. The public is willing, it

public encouragement. Let the expert

NO DISTINCTION.
Newton Kansan.

NeNtOn hdnSal
The attorney general is reported to have
acknowledged the existence of ''joints" in
Atchison; over two hundred citizens have
petitioned for the appointment of metro
pOlftan police, but all these things are
ignored. The state authorities owe it to
themselves to make persistent efforts to
enforce the law, and so long as they refuse,
newspapers in cities where That pernicious
police system has been established are
justified in charging favoritism against
them, All men are equally amenable to
law, and no distinction between cities
should be permitted.
mo distinction should be permitted"
yet the EAGLE would warn the state ad-
ministration against putting any more
Republican cities under that ban. We
don't care what the attorney general
says, who but two years ago was a coun-
try lawyer, the law itself says the mat
ter is discretionary one, and the Repub-
Hcan party of this state can't afford to
have Atchison, Topeka or any of the
other cities put under that law. One of
the ablest lawyers in the state, so recog
nized by all its superior courts, says,
emphatically, that Wichita could have
been relieved of the police commission
in perfectly legal manner if the execu-
tive council had so desired. 1t is not
the cities alone which suffer under that
law in the loss of revenue, and through
matchmaking schemes, and gambling
and disreputable outfits over which the
mayor is rendered powerless, nor the
fact that the Republican party loses in
the way of votes in the cities themselves,
but the discomfort and protesting inhu
ences reach out into all the Republican
communities which in any way are con-
nected with a city under this rule.
Therefore, we say again, let the attorney
general and his assistants vigorously
enforce the prohibitory law by prose
cutting, filming and imprisoning the law
breakers. but do not put any more Re-
publican cities of Kansas under the cor
rupt and disorganizing rule.

TOO GOOD FOR KANSAS.

A Kansas City crowd headed by Sam
Scott, and all bowling for Blaine, when
ready to pull out for Chicago found
hitched to the rear Of their special train
car from Kansas covered all over with
ingalls, banners. The Kansas City crowd
ripped and swore and finally abandoned
their train declaring that they wouldn't
go to Chicago in any such company.
The Rock Island, to pacify them, sent
the Kansas car out with special loco
motive which overlook the Kansas City
bummers forty miles out and was at
tached to their train after they had gone
to sleep. The select high toned outfit
never got on to the trick until they were
pulling up at their destination. The
ingalls, car was from Greensburg whose
people will not always be forced to con-
tribute their trade and money to a city
SO devoid of decency, but which in tins
was so true to its Missouri instincts.

AFTER THE OPERA.

An amusing story comes from Wash
ington to the effect that every employe
in the pension department has received a
circular from dealer advising him that
he can buy very cheap a handsome en-
craving of General Black, his superior
officer, and offering special inducements
for him TO invest in picture. The ex-
PLANTATION of this fact is, that some time
before the st. Louis convention General
Black was so confident that he was going
to be nominated for vice president that
he ordered an immense number of these
pictures expecting TO use them as cam
paign documents. His boom collapsed.
but not in time to countermand the order.
so that he now has on hand several thou
sand pictures that he would ike to sell
cheap. OF course, under the present sys-
TEN of Democratic assessments. there
ought to be no difficulty in disposing of
this job lot for good deal more than
cost. II the Widow McGinnis' pig could
extract dollars from the New York Gus
tom house employees. surely the picture
of live Democrat like Black ought to
raise the wind very easily. But then it
IS barely possible that Gen. Black has no
desire 10 swell the bandana fund. and if
any surplus is realized he may want il to
buy balm for his wounded feelings.

THE CONVENTION,

All eyes are turned toward Chicago
today. Public interest in a national
convention has not been so great in many
years. People care to read little or talk
little about anything else. than the con-
vention. The attendance at this con-
vention is larger than at any convention
before. It is a critical time, not only in
the history of the Republican party but
of the nation as well. The great issue of
protection which has eXerted such con-
trolling force in developing the resources
of the country and in promoting the ma
tional prosperity, has been attacked by
the Democratic party. The country is
all but breathless with anxiety to see
what answer will come from Chicago.
The convention has drawn together the
leaders of the party and their most eff
Gent followers. They are there to dis
cuss in a calm, deliberate manner the
needs of the hour. They will take no
step hastily, but viii be guided by the
best counsel and judgmect which the
party can supply, 1t is going to be a his
toric convention and its work will be felt
for years to come.

cure a reelection. So ON this lofty plane
of patriotic devotion, the public service.
Mr.. Cleveland and the Democratic
managers bamboozled the Mugwumps,
and obtained many votes that but for
their hypocritical and dishonest pre-
tensions they would not have received.
Now this high Democratic authority pro-
nounces civil service reform ga sham and
a fraud" and declares that the Demo-
cratic party is getting tired of playing
wet nurse to it. So it may be taken for
granted that the Democratic party has
concluded to abandon the civil service
reform issue in this campaign. 1t might
as well. 1t has reaped all the reward it
could possibly get out of it, and its dis
honesty and. hypocrisy on the subject
are so well known that it can no longer
deceive the people with the old cry.

In his letter of acceptance, four years
ago, Mr.. Cleveland said: ''Of the various
means of securing the full realization of
a government by the people, nothing
would be more effective in my judgment
than an amendment to the constitution
disqualifying the president for re-elec-
ton" As far as the president, himself,
is concerned a constitutional amendment
is not necessary to disqualify him for re-
election; his bungling mismanagement
of national affairs has done that for him
to the full satisfaction of large major
ity of the American people, and they
viii make haste to SO express themselves

SENATOR INGALLS,.

Notwithstanding the declarations Of
his friends, particularly those i'll the
Kansas delegation to Chicago. Senator
ingalls, declines to consider himself a
presidential candidate, or even posi-
bility. In an interview with the senator
last Monday the Washington correspond
ent of the Globe-Democrat quotes him as
saying, in regard to the mention of his
name in connection with the nomin-
alton for president: 81 am not at all
available" The correspondent quotes
him as saying further:
So far as the avowed candidates are
concerned, it is imma terial what names
are on the ticket. He says it would be
foolish for the Rnpublicans now to nom
mate Blaine and impossible for Blaine TO
accept. He holds that the nomination
ence would prevent the Republican
ticket from polling a full vote. He
thinks the personelle of the candidates
Will be the most tritiing hing in the
campaign. The fight will not be
for the candidates but for the
Republican party. Ii the Republi-
can ticket is TO win, the morale of
the party and not the popularity of the
candidates must pull it through. If the
Republicans fail in this campaign, he
says, it is their last fight. After another
presidential election the historian may
write the history of the Republican party
add the word ''Finis" at the end, and
close the volume. And there is one plan
of campaign which can bring victory,
and that is the plan which mas been out
lined by himself in recent speeches.
The tariff question, he says. is not as
much as the fly on the cart wheel. 1t is
only, he says, pretext which the Dem
ocratS mean to employ to distract public
attention from the real issue; only an
instrument which the Democrats intend
to use to amuse and bamDoozle the
public: only a pretext for political
jugglery. The aim of the Republicans,
he says, should be to oppose a solid
North to the solid South, which is sure
for the Democracy. The only plan of
that affords a chance of Re-
publican success is the one which makes
the issue clear and points out the dan
gers involved in allowing the solid South
to have control of the government. The
solid South, he says, is the only part of
the Democracy that has sand, courage,
backbone. If the Republicans allow the
Democrats to fritter away the campaign
in merely mounting about tariff it will
be Republican mistake and the end of
the Republican party. The North can
be carried solid, he says. if the issue is
made by the Republicans. If
the opportunity is lost, then all is over. |
