Dodge City fire department has been

communication from Anthony, claim.
ing the championship of the state
which appeared in the Wichita Eagle
last Sunday. We publish it that our
people may see our boys do not propose

at Wichita will admit that our bows

justly entitled to all of the prises.
Our nozzleman began unscrewing the
nozzle after the first race before the
judges had examined it. They saw
HIM doing it and stopped him in the
act, and in view of the abundant time
we had to spare over any other team in
the race, we think they might have
accepted the evidence of their own
senses. But as they had a right to
deny us the prise, and as they saw fit
to do so we bow to their wisdom, max.
ing no kick.
The championship race was the one

We won it In two seconds better time

meut, There will be

mept. There will be o
among these classes that government
bonds are q national blessing, and should
not be paid off.
In Cher countries this theory seems to
hold good, and no thought Of paying the
public debt is found in France or Eng.
land. France does not even raise rev.
enue enough TO pay her annual charges,
and her debt increases every year. Eng
land has now undertaken to reduce the
interest upon her consols, but does not
talk Of paying them. There would be
terrible flutter among investors, II she
did. There does not seem to be any safe
security for money save land or q great
governments credit. The faith Of the
states has been 80 often broken, that a
state debt is not llrst-class investment
And our states follow the fashion OF our
government In paying off their debts,
when they do not repudiate it entirely.
After awhile there will be no resting
place for money in this country in gov
ernment loans, and no very secure way
of holding it. 1t does not seem 10 &C
cord with the genius of our institutions
that fortunes should be secure.

The Chief JustIce.

The president is exceedingly deliberate
In his selection OF chief justice as the
business Of the court calls for prompt
appointment, it seems that the president
has difficulty in making his selection. lie
is supposed to be confined in it to the
northern and border states, and an age of
about fifty. There is good reason for the
first hesitation, but We see none for the
second. He wants to select the best man
he can get, who is in good health, re-
gardless Of his age. Duration OF life is
too uncertain in old and young to be con-
sidered in such matter and when one
chief justice dies another can be found TO-
take his place.
Thurman and Groesbeck have been
named for the post, and either would
adorn it. Minister Phelps is on TIE list
Of older men said to be able to adorn it.
The New York lawyers ask for James G..
Carter, one of their number, who is not
widely known. One of the very best
men who has been named is Howell T..
jackson, Of Tennessee, now on the cir
cult bench. We have suggested Solicitor
General jerks as a very fit man for the
place. The members of Congress have
recommended Speaker Carlisle. The
senators have selected Senator Gray.
Now In this list the president can
surely find fit chief justice; and he
ought to name him promptly.

An even chance, the mathematical DIR.
Barker loses his patient; and another
Illustration is furnished Of the ineffec-
tivenes of medical skill and the weak
ne0 Of its fore-knowledge. 1t is in such
widely advertised cases as this that
~ came to realize most clearly the i'm
poteuce Of science in averting death. We
had all came TO lively hope of the re-
covery Of Mr.. Conkling, owing to the
progressively favorable bulletins, and the
disappointment is great. The strong
vitality Of the patient was expected to
carry him through but 1t seems not to
have been great. A fair suggestion is
that Mr.. Conkling's habit of turning
night into day is responsible for his early
bCsak-down. The uniform lesson of ex.
perience favors the devotion to sleep Of
lthe hours Of darkness.
Mr.. Conkling died comparatively
young, after life passed almost wholly
in the public service. lie went into the
United States Senate, after career In
the state legislature and in the lower
House of Congress, with a reputation
rather for brilliancy than for solidity and
sense. He was likened to the peacock, in
the spread Of his plumage but he showed
n the Senate and has since shown at the
bar, the possession Of first-class intellec-
tual powers. He was of too honest and
sel'.respectful nature to become a
good politician, and smaller men came to
lake his political place. There was, how
ever, great future before him, had he
Teco, cred his health Of mind and body ;
and his illness would have served to
hasten 1t forward. His life's book closing,
leaves him entombed among the most
distinguished OF his country's dead.

Government Leans.

There is evidently little faith in Con-
gress in Jay Cookies doctrine that a
national debt is a national blessing, since
there was strong majority in favor Of
the resolution directing the use of the
surplus in the treasury in the purchase of
bonds. 1t looks as though some day
before very long We would have our
national debt paid off which should
make everybody happy but the national
bank people whom it will put out of
business. These banks have been pro-
vidiDg the currency for the people, Sc.
curing 1t by the deposit Of government
bonds, which pay them interest. Why
the government should want to pay in
tsrest upon the notes used by the people
- money, Is one Of those things which
no one has been able TO fild out but
when the debt is paid Off, the folly can
no longer be practised.
BESIDES the national bank psopls, there
will be great many trustees and widows
and orphans, and helpless people eeper.

The Tariff Trumpety.


The tariff discussion has opened with a
speech from Mr.. Mills and a counter
hlht from Mr.. Kelley. We do not see
that any profitable discussion was made
by either of the subject matter in hand,
viz the Mills tariff bill. Mr.. Mills
speech was an argument for free trade,
which seemed to he wholly out of place
In introducing an anti.free trade tariff
bill. Mr.. Mills practice does not
accord with his profession. He proclaims
doctrine which he declares is not appli-
cable to the present condition OF the
country. Why then spend time in pro.
claiming 1t Why not get down at once
to business and advocate the tariff du.
ties contained in the bill he presents
Mr.. Kelley went of in general decla-
nation In favor of protection which the
Mills bill proposes but which is
not what Mr.. Kelley wants. What
profit to him is general howl for protec-
tion ? 1t must be said for the old e ntle,
man, however, that he did get down to
particulars oftener than did Mr.. Mills. He
demanded that cotton ties and tin plate
should ne taken from the free list. And
he declared that coal and iron ores were
put on that list by the bill indi-
rectly, charging that its authors
were not bold enough to do it
directly. We wish Mr.. Kelly was right,
We think that ore and coal are
much more iitly put upon the
free list than tin.plates and cot
ton ties but they are not there, and
Mr.. Kelley knows it we hope that his
charge Of fraud will serve to bring the
House to square vote on free ores and
that the obvious policy of making them
free will prevail.
