From Different Standpoints.

A few editors of Kansas newspapers
should remember that the State univer-
sity is not political institution: that it
is part of our great, grand public school
system that is Independent of politics
and ought to be-State Journal.
That is true, and not only the editors
of Kansas papers should remember these
facts. but the editors of Missouri as well.
Some time ago. for some occult reason,
the Topeka Capital started boom for

From the New York World: Mr.. Ten

AIR CASTLES.

Do you know where are the castles Of air?
That rise from the island of dreams,
So perfect and fair. sunbright without glare
In imagination's white CLEANS?
Through the purple haze. of lifes happy days,
Through the sunlight OF golden slopes,
Where the poppies wave, and Morpheus stays,
Go meet with your long dead hopes.
For life's missing bliss, is found here wis,
Old ambitions you realize
The lips you would kiss, the loved ones you miss
VIII come to you cen from the skies.
But you must forget. all burdens that fret,
Each care of saddenng weighing,
In fancy's silk net, with dream jewels set,
You'll hear what the fairies are saying.
And float on the wings. OF rosecolored things
Through shining seas of illusions.
Remorse never stings, and no sorrow clings,
In half-dreaus OF sweet decisions.
For grim old Dispair is nevr found there.
And joy stands guard over the way.
o, castle so fair, Of enchanted air,
We never can go there to stay. y. ". q.

SORRY FOR THE REBUKE.
The Ottawa Republican takes an

The Ottawa Republican takes an edi-
torial paragraph that appeared in the
EAGLE several days ago touching the
question of appointing Professor Can
field to the position of chancellor OF the
state university, and the change OF
front in a number of Republican papers
in the state regarding the professor, and
makes the said paragraph text for a
lengthy dissertation for the evident pur-
pose of-well, setting itself right on the
question at issue, though it denies hav-
ing ever criticised the whilom free trader
for his poIitico-economic views. In Its
criticism of the EAGLES critical, or
rather ouizical, article the Republican
cites the fact that many, aye,
most of the Republican papers
of the state, including the EAGLE,
that have condemned Professor Garfield
for his heterodox political faith touching
the tariff, have the while endorsed mem
bers of the congressional delegation who
have been guilty of grosser inconsistent
cies in giving at least quasi support to
antl-protection, and consequently anti
Republican, doctrines and measures be-
fore the national legislature. Grant that
what the Republican says is true as to
the latter point, the cases are by no
means parallel, that is between the acts
of the teacher and of the lawmakers.
While the latter may not reject the
known sentiments of their constituent
cies in each particular vote, yet as
matter of expediency they may be
in a measure justifiable in SO acting
at times, in view Of the fact that
such act, if it shall not result to the best
interests of the people, may be undone
at the next sitting of the law-making
bodies-it must be allowed that legisla-
ton is very largely experimental; the
wisest cannot always tell IN advance
lust what will best suit and best serve
the largest number.
Not so in matters of education. The
superstructure depends for its charac-
ter and durability upon the foundation
upon which it is built. Our political
and economic notions and ideas are
purely matters of education. AS rule,
children imhibe not only the character
istics but the ideas, the convictions, of
their parents, not only in religious but
in political matter, as well as
the common, everyday affairs of
life. There are exceptions to this as to
every other rule, however, and perhaps
more to this than some others. Next to
the home influence that of the school
room is most potential with the young,
and here are found the most frequent
exceptions to the rule referred TO. The
vote of congressman is not known to
one in thousand Of the pupils IN our
schools, nor universities even, but the
precepts, the teachings, the lessons pre-
sented and impressed Gf the teacher be
faithful and true to his trusD is OF daily,
constant occurrence and cannot fail to
make impressions upon the minds OF
those who sit under them.
In view of these facts and conditions,
therefore, we think the Republicans
point not we'll taken and its argument,
consequently fallacious. Nevertheless
the EAGLE cannot refrain from express
ing regret at the sorrow its esteemed
contemporary has experienced on ac-
count of its want of consistency &! IN

VIII Make Common Cause.


A number of Kansas Republican pa
pers, headed by the Wichita EAGLE, are
declaring that the party is ripe for re-
bellion. They are displeased with the
course of the Harrison administration in
ignoring the $4,000 majority; they are
tired of the ''barnacles" getting al the
good offices. and they are weary of
the frauds, liars and sneaks that have
been Matched out under the so-called
prohibitorv law. 1t need not be a sur
prise if in 1890 a revolution like that of
1SS2 should occur in Kansas. The kick
ers may not all have the same grounds
for kicking, but when any considerable
number Of leaders IN party become
dissatisfied, though they may not have
the same grievances, they usually unite
and make trouble. And now the farm
ers of Kansas are getting just about in
enough to do little kicking
on their own account. and ii VIII be an
easy matter to enlist them in any move
ment that will promise change from
the present political system II Kansas.

A NEW THING IN HOTELS.

| The late health officer of Chicago, who
resigned because he found the mainten-
ance of health there too onerouS at the
price, has accepted, it is said, a situation
as consulting chemist for large hotel.
1t will be his duty to analyze all the food
used in the hotel and ascertain whether
it has been adulterated or not.
The idea is capital one and ought to
be adopted by every hotel in the country.
The Leavenworth Times suggests as an
Improvement that the result of the anal
ysis be published every meal on the bill
of fare, with the chemists certificate.
What blessing it would be to know to
fraction-on the authority Of an ex-
pert-iust how much chicory there is in
the morning coffee, how much sand in
the sugar, how much water or chalk in
the milk, how much sulphuric acid in
the syrup. In the matter Of
"made" dishes, too, what revelations
might not be expected. How charming it
would be to know just what the chemi-
cal constituents are Of hash apd GRO
QUOTES and chicken salad and the thou
sand and one compounds which appear
on the menu under the beautiful French
names.
Yet there are hotels, no doubt, which
would rather not go to the expense of
keeping chemist and printing his anal
yses on the bills of fare. Besides, con-
sidered further negatively, there is an
idiom extant that every person must eat
a peck of dirt, and there is no sort of
doubt that large number of PERSONS
guests at the popular hostelries-
prefer to take their allotted amount IN
small portions, unawares, along with
their stated meals, than to have it disso-
ciated therefrom and have to take it
per Sc. so to speak.
