Origin of the Word Daco.

The name is one applied by the
sailors to all persons who work in the
ports of the Mediterranean Sea. 1t
originated in Spain, where the COM
monest Christian name is Diego (pro-
nounced dyago), like John in English
or Patrick among the Irish. As every
Irishman is usually called Pat, so every
Spanish workman got to be called
Dago,,. as that was the commonest
name heard among them. 1t thus
passed from one place to another, and
in this country is now given to the
lower classes of Italians, and generally
to old countrymen from the coasts of
the Mediterranean.

Wichita an evident desire for closer COM
mercial and social relations with st.
Louis. While our city in the past has
had fair share of their trade, and a
portion OF their products has come to this
market, we were told that other
cities have controlled the larger
part OF their commerce. This has not
been satisfactory to the people, and they
now turn to ST. Louis as not only the
nearest large market, but their natural
point for interchange of business. While
we realize that business is not controlled
by sentiment, but by conditions which
render trade both safe and profitable,
we believe that the friendly feeling
which now exists should be reciprOcated,
and that our people should unite with
the people Of Wichita in an endeavor to
increase the volume of trade between the
two cities. Your committee believe that
their visit has tended toward this end,
and that visit of a committee from
Wichita in the early fall by invitation
from our, exchange would still further
aid the movement by bringing together
the business men of the two cities for
better acquaintance with a view to a
stronger commercial alliance. Respect
fully submitted.

THE VISIT TO WICHITA,
The Merchants Exchange Committee
Returns and Reports.

From the ST. Louis Republic.
The Merchants Exchange committee
appointed by President Cox to visit
Wichita in response to an invitation ex-
tended by the Board of Trade of that
city yesterday submitted the following
official report of their trip:
ST. LOUIS, July 10.-Hon. Charles A.
Cox. president: Dear Sir-The commit
tee appointed by you to visit Wichita
Kan, on the invitation of the Board of
Trade of that city, would respectfully
report that they spent day and a half
in Wichita, and We're most Hospitality
entertained by his honor the mayor and
committees of the Board Of Trade and
city council,
The opportunity was afforded US of OBJ
serving the wonderful growth of that
city of the plains, and the possibilities of
Its future as the probable largest COM
merCial center between the cities of the
Missouri river and those on the eastern
slope of the Rocky mountains.
We found the people to be recovering
from the depression that followed the
collapse of the boom that so inflated
values some two years since, and that at
tention is now being given 10 the materi-
al improvement of the city as evidenced
by considerable number of new build
ings now in process Of erection.
We found the people generally to be
imbued with a firm and not to be shaken
confidence of the future prosperity of
their city, and disposition to work to-
gether for its advancement.
The partial failure of the crops for the
past two years throughout the state of
Kansas has been felt In Wichita, as well
as in every other town in the state. An
other year of failure would have been
very disastrous. but the magnificent
crops Of wheat, oats and rye now being
harvested and the very favorable condi-
ton of the corn crop, now practically
beyond danger, together with abundant
returns of fruit and vegetables, has given
the people of that great state renewed
courage and insures them a prosperous
year.

TEXAS CATTLE IN OKLAHOMA.

Our farmers who were among the ear
~ settlers of this valley and state have
not forgotten what irrepairable losses
We're at times imposed on whole COM
munities by the Texas fever. impaired to
native cattle by moving herds of Texas
cattle. The domestic cow or steer or
herd that crossed even the trail of one of
those moving herds was sure to pay the
penalty with its life. The legislature
was forced to enact laws for the protec-
ton of settlers.
Down in Oklahoma they have no
written laws as vet, but the territory lies
between the home of the Texas cattle
and the so-called Cherokee strip which is
dominated and practically owned by cat
tie men, which cattle men can be infiu-
enced by no appeal from poor settler in
Oklahoma, whose all may be in a few
native cattle, the main dependence of
whose family may be in the milk of COW
or two. If these Texas cattle are permit
ted TO be driven at the pleasure of their
owners or her'ismen across that territory
hundreds of poor men will lose all the
native cattle they may own. As THE
EAGLE is read more generally in that
territory than any other paper, and as it
is in entire sympathy with the people
who are there and who propose 10 de-
velop its splendid domains, we would
warn the settlers of the fatal disease and
of its almost absolute certainty if not
guarded against. Some concert of ac-
ton ought TO be had by the different
settlements of the entire territory, and
the cattlemen given to understand

GOULD'S LATEST SCHEME.
A Short Line to be Built from Southern
Kansas TO ST. Louis,

From the Kansas City Times.
The entrance of the Missouri, Kansas
& Texas TO Kansas City bids fair to
radically change the railroad map OF the
southwest, especially Missouri. That
road having cut off the Missouri Pacific
in the southwest, the Jay Gould syndl-
cate seems more than ever determined
to injure this city.
The latest move on the part of the
Missouri Pacific is to build line from
Fort Scott, the eastern terminus of the
Fort Scott, Wichita & Western, to Bag
nell, the western terminus OF the
Lebanon branch, distance OF forty-five
miles west of jefferson City. The Fort
Scott, Wichita & Western division ex-
tends from Fort Scott west to kiowa,
Kan, a distance of 242 miles,
and since the Missouri, Kansas d
Texas was wrested from the
clutches of Jay Gould has had no eastern
or Kansas City connection with its own
system. In fact it has been placed hors
de combat and it's business has been Of a
local nature except when intersected by
the Kansas Southern at Yates Center.
The Missouri Pacific Railway company
is now engaged in the survey of a line
about 165 miles, making straight line
from southern Kansas to st. Louis, and
cutting off Kansas City. An effort was
made by the people of Butler to have a
road built from Port Scott to Walnut,
there connecting with the Emporia
branch, giving direct connection of
the Wichita line with Kansas City, but
the Gould people it seems, prefer to
build east to ST. Louis, which is more in
accordance with their tactics to iniure
Kansas City.
The line being surveyed runs from
Fort Scott to Rich Hill, where it connects
with the Lexington and Southern di-
vision of the Missouri Pacific. Thence it
runs through Appleton City and Deepwa-
ter, traversing the counties of Bates, st.
Clair and Morgan. 1t is claimed that a
saving of fifty miles on all through bust
ness from Colorado, southern Kansas
and southwest Missouri to st. Louis can
be made.
The st. Louis and Emporia road, an
other Gould line. running from LIE Roy,
Kan, to Walnut, Mo-, a distance of sew
enteen miles, will be torn up and divert
ed toward Rich Hill and form the con-
nection between the Emporia and Wich-
tia divisions at Rich Hill, which will
then become the principal division point
of the Gould system in the southwest.
These facts if inquired into may prove of
some value to the transportation COM
mittee of the Commercial club which is
just now trying to find out which rail
roads are Kansas City roads and which
are not.

Practical Prison Reform.

Chicago Herald.
The state of New York, following the
example of Pennsylvania, will now put
in force a law for the reformation as
well as the punishment of convicts. The
judges and juries will sentence prisoners
for not less than certain term and not
more than certain term. Between the
the limits thus marked the prison au-
thoritiss will be furnished with discre-
ton to discharge the prisoner, TO dis
charge him with ticket-of-leave, or To
retain him in servitude. The convicts
are to be classified into three orders,
when there is promise that they will
40 better outside than in, they will be
sent forth upon the world with the good
will of the prison and a fund sufficient
10 keep them out Of harms way. IL
cannot be doubted that such a system
will reduce the present number of major
crimes and the present amount OF in
human and needless expiation.

Southwestern Kansas, northwestern
Kansas, western Kansas. All west of a
line drawn north and south through
Lyons, Kansas, will yet have such rail
road lines as will enable them to look
after this interest
The above items are but one interest.
Wichita hopes to look after the hog
crop of the southwest. If these two
cities fifty miles apart can thrive, the
central part and north and northwest
ought to-being so far apart.
When the packing interest is under
way the other interests will come to the
front.
:, Packing interests will cause the hog
and cattle interest to be pushed for
money to the stock raiser.
This communication is not
written In the interest
of any point. but in the interest of and
looking to the development of the entire
state of Kansas, as one community
united in a common family, whose duty
is, and whose delight should be, to stop
the drain on us from Kansas City, Mo-,
and build up the state and become the
industrial bee hive of the west.
Let it not be said of Kansas, 1.-The har-
vest truly is plenteous, but the laborers
are few"
Let Kansas go to work in earnest.

Dear Sir: From correspondence l ar

ment of these facts arouse in kansans
any desire to better their condition or
stimulate ambition must be decided by
them.
SALIVA, KANSAS.
This city is situate on the Union
Pacific and Missouri Pacific, and through
its railway outlets touches the following
named points and counties and for the
year A. d. 1888 produced hogs and cattle
to-wit:
On the northwest-Lincoln, Lincoln
county, hogs $4,000, cattle 1900; Rus
sell county, hogs $4,000. cattle $4,000;
Osborn county, hogs $4,000, cattle 20, 900.
On the west-Russell, Russell county,
hogs $4,000. cattle $4,000; Ellsworth,
Ellsworth county, hogs 1900, cattle
10000; Ellis, Ellis county, hogs 5000,
cattle 1000.
On the south Mcpherson, hogs, Al 900:
cattle, $4,000 On the east Abeline,
Dickinson county, hogs, 10000; cattle,
$1,000. Council Grove, Morris county,
hogs, 10000; cattle, $4,000. Mirneapo-
lis. Ottawa county. $4,000; cattle, 81 900.
This is all short distance points, and
pre-supposes that trade will not extend:
presupposes that other towns will get
packers; presupposes that some other
point will be the big market. All of
these pre-suppositions are on the theory
that the worst happens and the best is
missed.
Here is field that opens to Salina or
some other point, prosperity if not OPP
pulance.
In this same territory there are 10000
sheep, and for convenience we call it
Central Kansas-and use Salina as the
figure, not from any wish to say Salina
any more than any other point, is "the
point" We simply want central Kansas
to take care of its own cattle and hogs.
CENTRAL NORTHERN KANSAS.
CONCORDIA.
We make the same use of Concordia
as of Salina, as to the figures, and not
from any knowledge of it's superiority
over points, but as this point is a Kan
sas city point to our knowledge. and is
cons. Tered by Kansas City, Missouri, as
one of its lasting points, we believe its
tributary points can be used to build up
Kansas and, kill hogs at home
Concordia has four railways, and the
points and counties touched by it within
a distance of 100 miles north, south and
east, and $50 miles west, are as follows,
and in the year 1888, produced hogs and
cattle, to-wit:

The Leavenworth Times, Colonel Dan
iel r. Anthony editor, says there are
three thousand vacant houses in Kansas
City, while the Wichita EAGLE says
there are three thousand saloons in that
town. If the people of Kansas who visit
Kansas city for business or pleasure. or
who go or send there for goods which
they can get just as cheaply at home,
would stop patronizing that town it
would be the deadest town in America
in six moDths.-EiDorado Republican.

The gentleman engaged in the Wichita
EAGLE in chawing up Kansas City, figures
the number of hogs in Kansas and then
raises the old chestnut why they cannot
be killed at home, and thus save trans
portation cost to Kansos City and back.
We wore our life out on that humbug.
Twenty-seven years of very able articles
on this idea we have spread along the
path of time, only to see things moving
more largely than ever toward centers.
Quit giving the countrymen such truck.

People tell us that the open saloon
keeps money at home. Let us see. A
gallon of liquor costs the Kansas con-
sumner from $3.50 to s.. If he bought it
of a saloon keeper, by the drink, it
would cost him from s. to So per gal
lon, while the saloon keeper would pay
the same price that is now paid by those
who order it by the five or ten gallons.
How would this keep money at home;-
