10 the Civil Service Commission leave
nothing TO be desired II they may be
said to cause any regret, il is that they
were not made sooner, during the first
months of the present administration,

THE HIGH AND THE Low FLOP.

Anyone who thinks the Wichita EAGL E
never gets the right flop on him should
read in Thursdays issue of that paper an
Article entitled, Democratic Insincerity''
Ii the EAGLE would only keep out of the
mud he would be a high flyer" To ac-
commodate his conditions his feet should
be webbed occasionally. Republi-
can.
While the EAGLE delights in high alti-
tudes, his natural home, it is impossible
to live on air and sunshine alone. The
earth is gross but its ooze is fairness. The
politician who would stand on the corner
and make his appeal in classical Greek
would never catch follower. When a
rooster wants worm he stops his crow
ing on top of barn and gets down to
a manure pile and scratches. The editor
who continually shoots over the heads of
the great majority dies unfelt. An
EAGLE whose feet were webbed would
find himself goose when it came to
picking up tangled-haired old ram by
his wool, and less than a she goose
when it came to plucking the feathers
from hen SO old as to have gone to
Growing. But, the EAGLE is here to
flop, right or wrong.

THE BEAM IN THE OTHER FELLOWS
EYE

The Kansas City Times with seeming
courtesy called our attention last week
to the fact that Maysville paper had
been slandering Wichita, at the same
time suggesting that we go for those
kentucky colonies, the editors and pro-
prietors. which we did in a caustic way.
A copy of the aforesaid Kentucky paper
containing the cited article reaches our
table this morning and to our utter
establishment the opening paragraph of
the objectional editorial, in kind of a
general and comprehensive way, declares
that the booms of the wild and woody
west have busted that 5000 houses in
Kansas City are plastered with the sign
"for rent" and only alludes to Wichita
in an incidental way. If in our haste
we have said anything that touches the
dignity or that seemed to question the
veracity of the Kentucky colonels. afore-
SAID, it is withdrawn. at least until such
time as the esteemed Times roasts them
a little on its own account.

THE GENUS HOG.

Human hoggishness has been well dis
played in demands upon the Johnstown
fund for relief of sufferers through the
late disaster there. Apportionment of
the fund has been unjustly made upon
the basis of pecuniary loss sustained, SO
the more wealthy people have gained by
want of consideration for the interests of
the poor widows and orphans. A maxi
mum limit of $4,000 compensation has
been fixed SO that no one can get over
that amount, but it contrasts strangely
to allow a wealthy business man S10,-
600 and fix the outside limit for poor
widow at 81 200, as has been done. An
illustration has been shown in the case
of a firm of merchants who business and
goods were destroyed. Their loss was
such as to give them the highest amount.
They still have remaining their business
site, which would sell today
for 100000 cash, and each
member of the firm has lot
on which he can build a home. One of
them owns several good tenement houses
that were not at all damaged and conse-
quently are very valuable, and the other
whose home was burned the day of the
flood received his full loss from the in
surance companies. They both have
bonds, mortgages and railroad stocks
drawing interest and each is worth $780,
900 or SAC, 600.
Such actions as those mentioned are
unfortunate for the best interests of the
community at large, IN that it discour-
ages the feeling of charity in the human
breast, never too strong, and cause meri-
torious cases to pass unaided and appeals
unheeded. But such freaks of human
nature will manifest themselves on &C.
casions.

MT. HOPE SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVEN
TON.

To the Editor of the Eagle.
The Greeley township Sunday school
convention met at Mt. Hope in the NJ. E.
church at 10 O'Clock Sunday morning. In
the absence of Vice President f. G..
Rauson the morning session was called
to order by Mrs. S. VI. Johns and an or
gan voluntary was rendered by Miss Lii
liam Poet. Prayer was then offered by
the Rev. j. NJ. Munroe, of Wichita. By
this time the church was crowded by the
good people of Mt. Hope and vicinity
and after soul stirring anthem by the
choir entitled "The Golden City" the
congregation joined heartily in the old
familiar song of praise, Coronation.
The vice pres ident, who had been de-
tanned by the illness of his family, now
made his appearance just in time to de-
liver his address of welcome, which he
cid in a warm hearted way.
p, \. Rohrbaugh, of Wichita. then de-
livered the opening address instead of
the Rev. Mr.. Armstrong who was en-
gagged in another direction. Mr.. Rohr-
baugh spoke of 1.-The object of the con-
vention." He said this was day of
trusts in all lines of business: the concen-
tration of capital and energies, and in a
word we had met for the purpose of
forming a trust for the Lord.
The Rev. j. NJ. Munroe then discussed
the International Sunday School lessons
He said these lessons was another illus
tration of the power of this idea of trust
or concentrated effort that all the Chris
tan minds of the world were engaged in
the study OF the Bible. thought that the
a Of h.a cd
the same idea.
Mr.. George a. Gilmore spoke of the
success of the Sabbath school work, and
not the success they should be: that we
did not get out of them enough for what
We put IN.
with brief but earnest plea for the
spiritual application of all lessons to the
hearts of the class. Mr.. Gilmore, how
ever, made the speech of the day on the
relation of the Sunday school to the
world. This was splendid effort.
The use of tobacco was also earnestly
discussed by number of the audience.
Time and space forbids the enumeration
of the good things which were said The
Rev. Mr.. j. E. Wick and Mr.. j. z. Oily
UellVereu eNCeileIC addresses. Inc essay
on Enthusiasm was very good, and
DR.. j. T. Potter's essay on Earnest
Work was above comment. Four
schools took part in the convention and
each school contributed music by their
own school.
Altogether the convention furnished
an enjoyable as well as profitable time.
The election OF officers resulted as fol-
lows: E. j. Cullison, president: G. w.
Irwin, vice president; Mrs. 5. II. Johns,

CONTEMPT FOR Law AND ORDER

Salt Lake Times.
The people of the United States are be-
coming accustomed to exhibitions of the
kind witnessed at the anarchist meeting
at Chicago the other day, in which a
display of the American flag was greet
ed with venonous Kisses and the waving
of the red banner was received with ire
mendous applause; still such dem onstra-
lions occurring from time to time should
set the men of America to thinking. 1t
is we'll known that the municipal author
ity of Chicago has from time to time
felt compelled to suppress anarchist dem
onstrations since the Haymarket massa-
ere IN that city few years ago, and that
there has been found men outside of the
ranks of that organization who have
protested against police interference
with its professions and meetings as an
outrage upon the principles of our free
government. 1t has been contended that
there should be no such suppression
pending the commission of overt acts
in other words. that the anarchist with
torch end bomb in his hand should be
permitted to fire the building and hurl
the missile-that the overt act should
be first committed - before resort
10 TGpIeSSlNe InedSuiSS StiOuli NC ciIi-
ployed The law of Illinois which bears
upon conspiracy has been denounced as
arbitrary and unconstitutional and the
sacred rights of freemen that have been
ruthlessly violated by the Chicago au-
thorities have been dwelt upon in denun-
clifton by Anarchists and their friends,
ad infinitum ad nauSeum.
The thought that should impress the
men of our country is that we are too
free-that people who dishonor the coun-
try flag by kissing it or hy half-masting
it whether in Utah or i'll Chicago, are
unworthy of American citizenship-that
popular opinion should compel the enact
meet and the vigorous enforcement of
laws that would tend to suppress such
reasonable conspiracies as the Anarch-
lst organization and TO bring swift pun
ishment for its incendiary and murder
Gus acts. If we are 10 maintain a gov
eminent worthy of respect, If we are TO
live in the enjoyment of social order, we
must provide and enforce adequate pen
altles upon evil doors. and last but not
least, the right of suffrage must be based
upon loyalty to these conditions IN the
body polite.
