COME HANDY IN BUSINESS.

Speaking of the extravaganza of the
late legislature, especially in creating
new offices,-between two or three hun
bred new places altogether-and all the
places created with reference to the
wants of some individual or individuals
who had hand in drawing up and lob
bying the bills through, we desire to call
attention to coal oil inspection bill
which also provides for useless officer,
that Wichita, amnog others, must
shoulder and pay. Why didn't they
create the offices of gas inspector, and
electric light inspector, and fuel inspec-
tor, and market inspector. ETC.? Oh,
that was gallus old crowd, a hungry
crowd, who felt most keenly that $4,000
Republican majority was disastrous to
all hopes Of federal appointments. Gov
ernor Humphrey, no doubt, had his
hands full, but we wish he could have
transferred to us the veto power for the
LAST ten days of that session. No doubt
good many good fellows would have
gone hungry the next two years but we
would have endeavored to have saved
the taxpayers Of Kansas q few hundred
thousand dollars, which might possibly
have come handy in their business.

PARNELL's OLIVE BRANCH.

Mr.. F8rnel has again shown himself q
statesman. He has availed himself of
the moment Of his vindication TO cut the
ground from under the feet of the liberal
unionists who are helping the tories to
coerce Ireland, and to build a bridge of
retreat for the tories themselves. Their
one cry, echoed by their allies, Is that
home rule for Ireland would mean the
breakup of the British empire. Dir.
Parnell, speaking as the accredited Irish
leader, tells them not only that it need
not mean anything Of the sort, but that
he does not wish it TO mean anything Of
the sort. In the house of commons,
the other night, he explained-no doubt
carefully picking and weighing his
words-that the Irish demand was
merely the right Of self-government in
matters which concern Ireland alone,
without the slightest shadow Of danger
or risk to the interests of the empire"
Coming from Mr. Parnell, at this time,
under the actual circumstances, this is a
very notable utterance; but it was fol
lowed that night by one still more re-
markable. The Irish leader continued:
Al ask IS that you, on your side. should
be willing TO consider and deal with this
question as if it were an oDen question:
that you should consider how far you can
give to Ireland the right TO legislare for
herself with safety TO your own greater
and undoubtedly more Overpowering in
terests. IL Is legitimate and right that
we, being the smaller country, should en-
n to
such safeguards as you may think neces-
sary or desirable tor the security of your
own interests.
This is the language OF reason. Of mod
Grafton, of common sense-in a word,
the language Of practical craftsmanship.
Even Squire Smalley is impressed by it
in spite of himself II shall perhaps be
acquitted of over-readiress to praise Mr..
Parnell," he writes to the New York
Tribune, ''but if [ understand rightly
what he now proposes, should say that
no leader ever seized a great opportunity
in more statesmanlike spirit" 1t is
not to be expected that the extreme
wing of the Irish party, the old "phys-
zeal force men, will be altogether
pltdStu-luSy nave lOllOWSQ Nlr,
Parnell all along under protest
and with more or less audible grum-
bling-but he Is the leader, and their dis
content will hardly go to the length of
revolt. For this ciear-headed, quiet
spoken Protestant has the Roman Catllo-
lie hierarchy of Ireland with him.
The chance thus offered to the tory
ministers and their allies is not only
chance to extricate themselves from an
untenable position, but also a chance to
dish the other party by doing now of
their own accord what otherwise Mr..
Gladstone or his successor will almost
certainly do in spite of them after the
next general election. Can anyone i'm
agine Benjamin Disraeli letting such
chance slip?
Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain next speech
on Irish affairs will be awaited with I'M
usual curiosity. He has advertised his
readiness to give Ireland a modified sys-
TEN of local selfgovernment, provided
the integrity and supreme authority of
the empire are effectually safeguarded.
He is a clever politician, and he has
future to be looking out for.

INGALLS, AND BJRNEs.
From he Peoria JcHrnal.

From the Peoria Journal.
Il may be 3 surprise to many, why it
was that Senator Ingalls, paid such a
glowing tribute TO the deceased Con-
gresham Barnes, of Missouri. After 1t
was known that the eloquent Kansas
senator was TO deliver an eulogy on the
deceased member of the house. the
galleries were crowded, as they ALWAYS
are when ingalls, Is announced 10 speak.
The effort was worthy of the speakers
reputation, and those who know some
thing of the past relations Of the two
men appreciated how deep q vein of sin
cerity underlaid his eulogy of the man
who was his ''neighoor' twenty miles
away TO the northward in those old
days when the great city of St.
Louis was the outpost Of
civilization, and the nearest rail-
road was a hundred miles distant.
Democrat though he was, James \.
Burnes, OF Missouri. was friend to the
eaistic tongued ingalls, al a time when
friends were scarce and his need was
great. When Ingalls, seat was con-
tested and charges OF bribery were pre-
terred against HIM by powerful fac
ton, having unlimited command of
money. and ne had scarcely dollar or a
friend, James y. B1rnes came forward
and placed his well filled purse and his
whole souled friendship entirely ar his
command. Senator Ingalls, might well
claim for such deeds the merit of some
thing more than oblivion,

HAPPY ST. LOUIS.
Din Nye DiscoCrses the Pleasures Of ez
Arrest in That City.

Din Nye DiscoCrseS on the Pleasures OF er
Arrest in That City.
st. Louis is the only city have ever Wis
tied where 1t seemed ike paying man 9
delicate tribute TO .rrest him, writes BIZ
Nye in the Chicago Tribune. When you are
arrested in st. Louis you do not go reluc
family to the nearest station by means OF
the scruh Of your neck, through hootine
and maddlng crowd, but the policeman who
has arrested you sends in a signal from the
nearest box, and directly, as the English
put 1t, or right away, as the American has
it, a beautiful silver mounted droska. o,
Rise-up- William Riiey-aud -coue-along -with
ne phaeton, drawn by gaily caparisoned
and neighing steeds, dashes up to the curb,
driven by an Olive street gondolier. You
bound lightly into the beautifully fecked
chariot, a tiny silver gong about the size Of
a railroad timetable tinkies gaily. and
away you go, arousing the envy and admirs
tion of these who have never beer under
arrest.
But how, asks the keen and rpuugenf
reader, can St. Louis afford TO DO this, while
in city Ike New York the criminal must
either walk 10 the station house or foreyo
the joys Of arrest entirely. The answer is
simple. Here the criminal pays s. 80 for an
arrest whichhe used TO get at 81. This pays
his droska hire and makes his arrest some
thing TO look back 20 with pleasure. People
who yield TO the police and become arrested
from time 70 time 10 not care for the OK
pense. Mostly they refer the expense TO
place which should be alluded 20 very spar
