That is pleasant enough reflection if

number of the largest ones are held
without price by their owners, the
outlook for the wished for consumma-

suring. The beverage loses none of its
political potentiahty by being manipu-

The action of the agricultural depart

$4,000 in further experimenting and
developing the sorghum sugar interest
is very encouraging and cannot fail to
result beneficially to that undertaking.
1t is confidently expected that this years
experiments and experience in Kansas
will place the new industry beyond the
experiment stage and establish it def
nItely and permanently as one of the
most important and profitable industries
Of the state. The preference given Kan
sas in the distribution of the public funds
was but natural and eminently proper,
in view of the interest taken in the sub
ject in this state and the progress already
made in the development of the industry.

annoyance in Australia at the refusal of
the American government to assist mail
service between the two countries. The

lars yearly by refusing to follow the ex-
ample of the Observation-Disclosures in sub
sidizing steamship lines. Here is Aus

The accident which occurred near
Armagh, Ireland, Wednesday by which
seventY-five persons lost their lives and
as many more were more or less serious
ly injured, was just such a one as &C.
Cured near Chatsworth, H., about one
year ago, both being the result, if not OF
criminal carelessness, at least of lack
of precautions against their occurrence
on the part of those whose dbty it was
to provide against them. The prompt
ness of civil authorities in causing the
prompt arrest Of the railroad employees
who were presumed to be in position to
have prevented the Armagh disaster, if
not responsible for it, is commendable.

atfording sufficient ground for the exer-

UNRECONSRUCTED.

Old Jubal Early, whose condition IS
generally described as ''fuller'n-a-blled-
OWL managed to get sober enough, on
the 9th, TO make a speech. 1t was at
Winchester, Va, and the occasion was
Southern Memorial day. The Democratic
papers that have been so ylciously
abusing General Harrison Kelley for de-
nouncing the murder of his comrades,
do not seem to be shocked about the
speech of this Confederate, at Winches-
ter, who first DETAINED the memory of
Sheridan by asserting that he early
had only $4,000 or $4,000 men at the
battle of Winchester, while Sheridan
had &c, 900; and that Sheridan was only
''ten miles away when the battle of
Cedar Creek began, and sit took him
from early in the morning until about
noon to make it.
The old blatherskite evidently took
this opportunity, the first he has had
since his disastrous defeat "only ten.
miles away" some twenty-five years ago,
to avenge himself for the disgrace to
himself and humiliation to his army,
brought about primarily by his own act
of calling a halt to his victorious army
under General Gordon-now governor
of Georgia-(who in Sheridan's alb
sence from his command persuaded Early
to permit him to make day break at
tack, which he did and succeeded
in forcing the Union troops to retire.
and after swallowing canteen of
liquor, lying in drunken stupor under
the shade of tree all day and until late
in the afternoon, when the intrepid Sher-
idan reached his broken and retreating
column, and with handful of his men
whom he rallied put the doughty rebel
chieftain and his army to rout.
Early's Winchester utterances may
find response in the hearts Of some
people in the south, but we dare say
none of the men who were under him
on the memorable occasion referred to
are among the number, or that he is
held by them in higher esteem than is
Longstreet, who proved faithful and
efficient while the fight lasted, but who
surrendered in good faith and deserted"
the cause, if it please the valiant Early,
after it was lost.

State Journal.


~ A farmer residing few miles in the
country was in the city today to have a
patent nostrum known as "horn pre-
tentative" analysed by chemist The
stuff is advertised by a Kansas City con-
Germ as preventive of horns on cattle by
making an application upon the tender
young horns Of calves. The farmer has
been using it upon his young stock, and
out of thirteen calves experimental up
on, seven or eight died. A veterinary
surgeon was called in and he found that
the stuff had not eaten the horns away
but had penetrated the brain, causing
inflammation and producing death. The
preparation has been analysed by a
chemist. who finds that it is composed
chiefly of caustic. The farmer is mad
and he is talking of taking steps to pros
ecute the sellers and manufacturers Of
the dangerous stuff for damages.

THE DEAF AND DUMB INSTITUTE.

| The Kansas City Star speaks of the
work being done at the Olathe deaf and
dumb institute and of the institution in
general way in the following very
complimentary manner:
The twenty-fourth annual commence
ment of the Kansas institute for the
education of the deaf and dumb took
place yesterday at Olathe. During the
past year the central portion of the asy-
lum building has been completed and
the structure presents not only an impos-
ing appearance but is commodious and
convenient, and is we'll furnished with
the appliances for successful work. The
location is slightly and healthy, the
grounds surrounding the institution are
beautiful, and they are kept up with the
greatest care. Over 200 students were
in attendance during the year, very
large proportion of whom will 60 to
their respective homes for the summer.
The best methods known for the in
struction of the deaf and dumb are
employed at the asylum, and the sew
erai industrial departments turn out
each year a number of boys and girls
skilled in useful trades. A printing
office which issues a neat little weekly
paper, edited by the students, is an in
teresting feature of the institution. The
comfort and health of the inmates are
paramount considerations in the manage
ment of the asylum, which is model of
order and cleanliness. Though deprived
of the power of speech and the sense of
hearing the students are, for the most
part, exceedingly apt in acquiring
knowledge and the means of rapid and
intelligent communication. They soon
become wonderfully proficient in sign
language, and early master the art of
writing with ease and facility. The pro-
gressive policy in Kansas in relation to
its eleemosynary institutions is exem-
plified in most gratifying manner at
the Olathe asylum, which takes high
rank with the best institutions Of the
kind in the country

KELLEYs ARKANSAS SPEECH.

From the Fort Smith Journal.
In behalf of what is believed to be the
best interests of Fort Smith and of Ar
kansas in general, the Journal has so far
abstained from saying anything editori-
ally regarding the speech made by Hon.
Harrison Kelley in this city last Thurs
doing exact justice, so far as possible, to
every man and since the reports Of that
speech, which have been telegraphed SO
industriously abroad, contain number
of errors, in simple justice to Mr.. Kelley
those errors should be corrected. He
did not. as stated, denounce the people
of this state as "a lawless people incapa-
BILE of self government" He simply
said certain violations of the law had
been called to his notice, and mentioned
the instances. He did not threaten the
people of this state with his in
fiuence as q congressman to put
them under martial law, only making
the general statement that when the
government OF any state had been proven
inadequate TO the protection of its
citizens the general government was in
duty bound to see that each citizen was
secure in the exercise of those rights
guaranteed MIN by the constitution.
The resolutions he referred to were not
the ones passed by the Kansas legisla-
ture, but some passed by the Grand
Army of that state and he so stated
distinctly. The corrections are made in
the interest of justice solely. and the
Journal is confident that when they are
read the citizens generally will begin TO
realize that in the excitement Of the
moment a mountain has been made
froma mole hill.
