CLEVELAND'S ARROGANCE.

Speaking of President Cleveland's We
to of the joint resolution granting the
Kansas State Agricultural Collrge 1852
additional acres of land, the Industrial
ist, the organ of the college, says:
Now, the claim has been studied in ev-
cry phase for many years by several
Boards of Regents, with lawyers Of ev-
cry party, no doubt whatever of lis equi-
ty having crossed the mind Of one who
had fully looked into the case. The
joint resolution No. IA was introduced
January 4, 1888, by Hon. John A. Ander-
son. After its due consideration in the
committee or public lanns, the chair
man, Hon. w. S. Holman. wrote under
date of February q: ''Your college is
clearly entitled to the 1852 acres of land.
1t is not matter open to argument.
1t is scarcely pleasant to our represent
alive men-such men as Senator Plumb,
who has given special study to the case
for years: Governor Crawford, who has
compiled and printed all the facts in the
case: Congressman Anderson, who in
troduced the resolution. and Congress
man Turner, who presented the matter
in committee-to be so cody told that
thep have acted upon misunderstood
ing of the facts.

OUT OF HIS OWN MOUTH.

In recent speeches in the east
Mr.. Mills, of Texas, has posed
as an innocent victim of partisan misrep
resentation. Republicans have actually
described his bill as a free trade bill in
principle and purpose and its author as
free trader. At present, and up north,
Mr.. Mills won't have it that way. His
bill is not free trade bill. he says. ''No
Democrat desires free trade"
These denials and disavowals take on a
peculiarly queer look in the light of GER
tain previous utterances of the distin-
guished gentleman from Texas. Hereis
one of them, quoted by the Troy Times
from a speech made by him April "A,
1873, and reported in the Congressional
Record:
| If today we could sweep away all restric-
| tions from our commerce and make 1T free
| as the air, IN one year our trade with Tor
eign countries would amount to two bill
| instead of one, and in ten years we would
have the largest commerce and most pros
| porous people in the world.
Here Is another, quoted by Henry
George from a speech made by Mr.. Mills
April Is, 1884, and quoted in the Con-
gressional Record:
We must remove both bylegislation and
diplomacy every hindring cause which
prevents the free trade exchage of the pro-
ducts of our labor in all the markets or
the world. We must unfetter every arm
and let every muscle strike for the highest
remuneration for its toll. We must let
wealth, the creation of labor, grow up in
all the homes of our people. Then every
industry will spring forward at a bound
and wealth, prosperity and power will
bless the land that is dedicated to free
men. free labor and free trade!
Here is still another, quoted by Mr..
Burrows of Michigan, from a third
speech of Mr. Mills on the same interest
ing theme:
Our policy should be to take the small
est amount OF taxes we can by customs,
and we should gradually decrease the
amount until our customs taxes come
alone from competing articles enter
ing our custom houses.
The Hon. Tom Reed tells us, in the
New York Tribune that the last two ex-
tracts were read to Mr. Mills in open
house last June, in order that he might
have room to declare his repentance sif
he had repented; that under the read
ing of the first Mr.. Mills sat silent; and
that when the reading of the second was
concluded he merely called for vote!
Really" comments the big congress
man from Maine, "that was the only re-
ply he could make. He was looking
then and there into the eyes of too many
men who knew what bis real sentiments
WERE"
1t is condition that confronts Mr..
Mills-his own previous condition of
avowed free-tradeism,

Gueda Herald.
The foolish and unwise rivals who are
trying to pick pinfeathers from the roya
diadem of the Peerless Princess have YET
more pointers to learn before they come
out of the swaddling clothes of baby
growth. Wichita is the grandest type Of
all our Kansas cities of the magica
growth and imperial progress of the Sun
flower state Wichita is the embodi
ment of Kansas enterprise and the finest
representative of local loyalty and manly
pride which always strengthen com.
munities and build up towns. A
Wichita man always speaks well OF
his town, is ready to praise her and fight
for her. Mr.. w. II. Warner, real estate
dealer and heavy capitalist, now stopping
at the Springs, is not an exception to
this rule. Mr.. V. has resided in Which
ita IL years and loves the town today
better than he ever did before. In reply
to the question: ''How is Wichita?"
Mr.. Warner said: 1.-The city is doing
finely. During the early season business
was little slack and building to some
extent stopped, but we are building now
as much as ever. Our great workshops
are being filled with workmen and our
factories are turning out their products.
People may say Wichita is busted and
gone up, but there is no truth in it. Who
wants Wichita busted? Who can bust
her? She is the gem of the state, and it
is to the interest of every town in south
western Kansas at least to build her up,
and make her a great inland commercial
point and distributing center. She can't
be busted because she has too much
enterprise and too many cap
italists in her midst. Of course some
have got bit on outside real estate or
they will have to wait until the city
grows to them, as it will in time. But
you can't build a city ten miles square in
years time. The inside property
should have first been utilized. The
same mistake has been made in nearly
will survive. Wichita has too many
men of capital to be busted"
But Hutchinson, l see, claims she has
got the great Fowler packeries and the
Fairbanks lard refneries," put in the
Herald man.
''Yes, Hutchinson offered the Fowlers
100000 if they would put in plant
worth $4,000 and let her Hutchinson
run it in the name of the Fowlers
Hutchinson is nice little town. She
has some enterprising men, but not
enough of them. What do you think of
city that has Levy who contributes
$4,000 in one subscription to these public
enterprises, and planks down $4,000
cash, and a Dold who does the same,
and others, all at the same meeting,
That is Wichita. You must come and
see us. Mr.. Herald, if you want to see
the great city of Kansas"
