drove one town across the river into Mis-

territory. When people won't they ought
to be made to.-Kansas City Gazette.

of which we have yet dreamed. The
ink of the above paper is dried by an at

of fermenting malt and raw whisky,
which Is fioated across an imaginary
line by every passing breeze in such
denseness as would produce state of
perpetual inebriety on any people less
accustomed to the breath of the saloon.
Now, Mr.. George Martin, Esq, Jr., mark
how plain a tale will put you down.
Wichita, in her honest endeavors to en-
force the prohibition law, has jailed
more jointists and fined more men for
selling whisky than Topeka, Atchison
and Kansas City ever have, all COM
bined. If that fact don't exhonerate
Wichita's officials and prove their sim
cerity and worthlness, what other test
could?

cultural prosperity and we
further believe that the
amendment will be made by the several
states or become settled by act of con-

Kansas never took any particular in

years ago. Wichita, like Leavenworth.
was born bourbon town. Its first in
habitants were COWBOYS, gamblers and
horSethieyes. For years they made the
town resort for the lawless, and when
the cleaner element began TO come in
they were forced to move out. Finally
the western limit OF the state was
reached. Dodge City, the modern
Sodom, spewed them out and back they
went TO Wichita and there eutrenched
themselves. The town today holds
more of this class OF people, the
overflow from the territory, than anv
other three towns IN the state, and. as a
matter of course, Wichita is for resub-
mission, free whisky, baudy houses and
gambling dives. If the Times is proud
of its twin children it is welcome to
them. Kansas has no use for them

THE WRONG FIGURES.

The three states. Nebraska, Iowa and
Kansas, have raised this year 100, 100000
bushels of corn. OF this Kansas produced
276, 900, 600 bushels, or nearly three-fifths of
the whole.-Wichita EAGLE.

will not do for you either to claim that 1T
was typographical error and that it was
intended to say two-tifths, for two-ffths
would be 304 DOC, 900. We will admit, how
ever, that Kansas raised magnificent

to regard the periodic factiouai feuds

moner sort in Kentucky as kind of mat

the one that occurred in Lexington. the
center of blue grass culture and civiliza-
lion, Friday, in which two of the most
prominent and conspicuous citizens of
the state, and both enjoying national
fame, were the sole actors. The pre-
dominating characteristic. that of the

all pervading influence: none are able to

SUNDAY SCHOOL WORK.

To the Editor of the Eagle.
The following is the summary of the
work done by the missionaries of the
American Sunday School union in the
fiscal year ending March 1, 1899: Schools
organized 1855, containing 1869 teach
ers, and 63,375 scholars; schools aided
1876. containing 1905 teachers and
1913, 53S scholar. Schools previously re-
ported aided 4 ,432, containing PITTS
teachers and POI .531 scholars. Bibles
distributed S.625, testaments distributed
II ,6S1; visits to families. &C, 041: addresses
delivered. II ,34l; miles travelled, 400. 306.
This society is constantly organizing
Sunday schools in neglected or new
places: its work is undenominational,
unsectarian, but not anti-denominational.
Il prepares the way for organization
of evangelical churches of every name.
The securing of preaching and organiza-
ton of churches is directly encouraged
and promoted. Its chief concern is for
the children, it circluates moral and
religious literature, it aids weak schools
Of every name, it has gathered nearly
1900, 900 children into the Bible schools.
The society, organized in the Masters
name, appeals to everybody for con-
tributions to advance the work. Gather

Meetings of anarchists are announced
for today to be held in Chicago, st.
Louis, Baltimore, New York and other
cities where there are enough to do so,
for the purpose of celebrating the ami
versary of the execution of the Hay
market conspirators in Chicago. This is
the boldest and most open defiance of
public sentiment in regard to that issue
that has developed since the event they
propose to commemorate. 1t remains
to be seen whether they have profited
by experience, in the matter of yoicing
their incendiary sentiments.

said there was such thing in Kansas:
You fellows who were caught by the
wiley tongue of the Democrats, is there

who, by voting the Democratic ticket,

shattered the grand old Republican ship

What did it? The rebellion in the Re

telling us about all summer. That's
what did it. Republicans who voted the

little brief authority convert a mere

from mere presumption that the Demo-

murders, andsoforth, down there is ac-
counted for by the fact that the BULLDOG

The promptitude with which the
American people respond to the distress
call from whatever quarter is one of
their most praiseworthy characteristics,
and notwithstanding the public is inn
posed upon at times by evil designing
peculators the responsive chord is rem
dered none the less sensitive to the next
succeeding tonch of need. The liberal
contributions of food and clothing and
other articles of necessity and comfort,
and OF money collected and forwarded
to Dakota in answer to the call for aid
for the destitute and suffering people
there are none of them coveted nor
regret felt by the donors since it is
known that the reports from that quarter
were greatly exaggerated, while all will
rejoice to know that the actual destitu
ton among the people of the new state
is comparatively slight.

The Sioux City Journal attempts to
minify the potency of the Democratic
success in that state by declaring that it
was not, in fact, Democratic victory;
that their candidates for governor, lieu
tenant governor and perhaps others are
recent recruits from the Republican par
ty. The assertion may be true but if
true it strikes us as a rather compromis-
ing admission. If their candidates are
recent converts who knows but that their
ranks may not be filled with the same
sort of recruits. Our own notion is that
the result there was brought about by
pretty much the same cause that wrought
the paralizing change here, and that the
effect will be no more lasting there than
here if the admouition is needed.
