Resolution OF Thanks.

CThe following resolutions were Of
fered MIR. Blosser for publication, he
refused them and they arrived at this
Office last week too late for insertion.
ED
At a meeting Of the Grand Army of
the Republic at our lodge in Messing
ton Springs June 9th 1889, it was
deemed suitable that resolutions be
published expressive of our deep sense
of gratitude toward our speakers, the
martial band, the glae club and Goa
trlbutors Of flowers on the occasion of
the memorial services on May Goth
1888.
To this end q committee OF two was
appointed who beg leave to present the
following resolutions.
RESOLVED that first OF all we would
render thanks to an allWise and ever
beneicent Creator, Whose watchful
care has been over US through all the
fiery ordeals of the past and Who has
brought us safely through to the pres
ent moment, and given us not only
peace, friendship and brotherly love
but freedom to think, to act and to
worship Him according to the dictates
of our conscience.
RESOLVED That our worthy speakers
Major kellam and Prof Freeland are
entitled to our deepest respect and
gratitude for the eminent ability and
lofty patriotism which they manifest
ed On that occasion.
The theme, sour Country" was y
lofty one. A country Of frcemen, Ii
country united, a country over which
tiaunts her stars and bars in the eyes
of all the nations of the earth. What
veteran will not confess to q burning
in his bosom when inquiry was made,
to whom are we indebted for this good
ly heritage? Let the scars, the lurk-
ing disease, the decrepid forms of the
Grand Army OF the Republic answer.
Let the widows means, the orphans
tears cry out and the graves of the I'M
coilined dead be heard. Then was
asked. what of the hour and what OF
the duty and responsibility of those to
whom this glorious heritage is be-
queathedp Let the rising generation
treasurer up the lessons of to day OF
this memorial service and shape Their
lives in accordance with the demands
and responsibilities Of the hour SO that
this priceless bloodbought boon may
be handed down to remotest gener-
atious which shall come after us.
RESOLVED that Ee tender our thanks
to the martial band, the glee club ana
last but not least 10 the contributors OF
flowers those emb,ems of purity oil 81
lection and devotion to the memories
Of the nations dead.

The Farmers Alliance in session at
Huron last week rejected a free trade
resolution, adopted Il prohibition plank
pledged themselves to stand by their
respective parties and not spring an in

adopted: All public necessities, so
far as practicable, should be owned

managed in such a way that no class
should be allowed to exact unjust rates
for the use thereof; second, our rail
roads should be SO controlled by the
government as to be run in the inter
ests Of the people upon an actual cost
basis; third, the establishment OF a
monetary system IN which a circulate
Ing medium in necessary quantities
shall issue direct to the people without
the intervention of banks. The ma
tional Issue shall be full legal tender in
payment of all debts, public and pri-
vate, and that the government shall
not recognize OR graft any private
banks Or create any banking corpora

fifth, prohibition, state and nationals;
sixth, election Of United States sena-

THE CHEEKY ORGAN OF THE CITY
OF GALL.

The Kansas City Times in this its hour
of retfibutive tribulation is referred for
consolation to poem entitled Gall City,
by the author of ''Kansas for Kansans
and Missouri for Missourians," in Thurs
| DAVIS issue of the EAGLE. Soft as the
! velvety cheek of maid is the ceacban
bone of government mule compared to
the incompatible modesty of our Mis-
souri, contemporary. Before the Times
was dreamed of Kansas editors, now
living, were writing for Kansas and
more effectively than any writer on the
Times ever did. The Times says, among
very many other bumptious things. that
when Kansas has been slandered
that paper has defended her. OF the
half dozen or more defamatory things
against this section, appearing in the
Associated Press in the last few months,
when traced up for their origin, every
one were shown to have originated in a
special lie to the K. c. Times. And
SO with every claim that it makes
for itself. These claims all
consist of simply unapproachable
cheek through which is reflected depth
of gall incomprehensible to any but such
as were forced in infancy to drink tansy
tea for worms, or the pap of whose gen
Jus consisted Of gall bladder. The
Times was 10 more factor in the open
ing of the territory than were hundred
other lnstrumentalities and forces. In
fact, not until the EAGLE ceased its op-
position was there any show Of opening
the territory, notwithstanding the four
or six years of continuous blowing by
the Times. Come to think of it the ter
ritory is not open yet. The Times III
keeping up its pace says that everybody
in Kansas reads it, and noisy Wichita
owes her biggest boom to the Times.
True, but such truths would turn the walls
Of hell shade darker with envy. The
EAGLE in every town in Southern Kan
sas save four has a greater circulation
than the Times has, and SO has the EAGLE
in the towns and cities of Oklahoma.
But what's the use. No reader can re-
ceive a faint impress of the swelled
proportions of the awful Jowl
with which the Times is afflicted until
the article itself has been read and
which we reproduce elsewhere in all its
abOminable Consciousness, offensive
malevolence and obtrusive cheakiness.
There is, in conclusion. no call .On the
Times abiding to other cities in Kansas
or to other papers. The EAGLE and
Wichita are alone the source of its an
noyance in this the hour of Kansas
City's tribulation, over cut freight rates
and unYedeemed mortgages. The only
pig market in Kansas is at Wichita,
which is also the only wholesale market.
But Wichita and the EAGLE, with all
their pigs and wholesale rates, are not
hogs in unbroken cargoes, such as are
Kansas City and its Times. Our pigs
are of our own planting and raising, and
in our own plants we will cut 'em up and
salt 'em down at our own pleasure, and
in our own way, without reference to
the failing markets of Kansas City or
the silly boastings and unfounded COM
pTainings of the Times, who would be
happier if it read the EAGLE less.

A BLESSING IN DISGUISE.

''Now that the war on the Irvine
trust is all over" remarks the Lawrence
Journal, sit is refreshing to know that
the enhanced price of binding Irvine
this year was due solely to the fact that
hemp cost twice as n UGH in Manila as
it did a year ago. That is all there is
about it, and our manufacturers have
done all they could to supply the Irvine
as cheaply as possible to the farmers.
There has been no combination and no
trust" Be that as it may, the effect If
the increase in the price of binding
Irvine upon the grain growers of the
country has been the same as though it
were caused by the alleged trust. And
not only so, but it has had the effect of
stimulating inquiry into the matter Of
producing a substitute at home that will
prove satisfactory both in quality and
price. This done, (and there is little
doubt that it has already been accom-
plished) and the farming community
will not only be relieved from the
caprices of foreign supply of a neces-
sary article, but the large sums of
money sent away annually for it will be
kept at home to encourage home indus
try and compensate home labor In
this view of the matter the Irvine trust,
whether real or imaginary, was a bless
ing in disguise, just as many Of the
others have been and will be.

Some fool publisher of anarchist pro-
clivities, and who it would not be much
amiss 10 consign 10 servitude in some
mine, were such thing punishable in n
country where effort for Doodle often
passes muster as earnest patriotism, is
out with the declaration that Governor
Humphrey, Captain Booth and other
prominent Republicans possess a guilty
knowledge of the Coffeyville explosion
which so fearfully mangled the express
agents wife and daughter during, the
campaign last fall. One of these papers
goes so far as to declare that one Of the
fiends now fills lucrative Office under
Humphrey. 1t is only necessary TO say
that the reward of $500 offered by the
state still stands and all that they have
TO do to get it is to point out the man.
They should do this and do it quick OF

BAD PLAYERS AND WORSE PLAYS.
Manager Davidson of the Louisville
Ii = l. IL Il.

Manager Davidson of the Louisville
base ball club is probably the worst man.
ager the world has ever seen, but he is
not without some striking characters
tics. He has not been able to pay his
players recently, SO when he returned
home the other day he fined them be-
tween $1,000 and $1,7O0, which was
about the sum he needed to bridge over
the financial chasm. Unless the officers
of the American association interfere
the players have no redress and will
have to submit to the money being de-
Quoted from their salaries.
But the American association will in
terfere; for not even base ball managers
can afford to sanction such highway
robbery as that. The Louisville players
will get their money finally, and they
will suffer nothing except a temporary
Inconvenience. Their case, too, will
prove of great advantage to the brother
hood and other professional players, be-
cause it furnishes an object lesson of the
injustice of the present rules that cannot
be disregarded.
The Kansas City club with all its i'll
luck and management and worse play
ing Jared better in the matter of receiv-
ing their pay than did the Louisvilles.
But the Cowboys have rubbed out. and
begun again with promises of better
things to come.

As the "little bare foot" season is at
hand, says an exchange, we are reminded
that during the period we often hear of
one who has stuck a rusty nail in his
foot and lockjaw has resulted therefrom.
All such wounds can be healed without
any fatal consequences following them.
The remedy is simple. 1t is only neceS-
sary to smoke such a wound, or any
wound or bruise that is infiameG, with
burning wool or WOODEN cloth. Twenty
minutes in the smoke Of wool will take
the pain out of the worst case of in
fiammation arising from a wound. The
writer vouches for the efficacy Of this
remedy, as trial of it came under his
personal observation within the past
thirty six hours.

The proposed Pan-American exposi-
ton to be holden in this country in 1892,
in commemoration of the 400th ami
versary of the discovery of the CONT
nent by Columbus, is likely to cause a
slight ruction between Washington and
New York. Already the papers of the
two cities named are discussing their
respective merits and dement's. The
Washington papers refer to the hoggish-
ness of New York in wanting to moaop-
Ollie everything worth having, and the
papers of the metropolis declare that the
efforts of the people of Washington to
have the exposition held there are alb
surd; that the place is not big enough
for such an undertaking.; that it would
not be possible to make it a success; but
if it were, the hotel accommodations of
the capital would not be sufficient for
half the visitors: they prove utterly in
adequate every Inauguration, whereas
the vast crowd that came to New York
during the centennial were cared for
without and perceptible trouble, and
tlldt IOT tHSSe IedSOHS w Washington 10
simply out Of the question for such an
exposition. This controversy implies
that the two cities named are the only
available places for the big X. There
are, nevertheless, half dozen or more
other cities just as available and suit
able for the exposition, all of which will
no doubt be heard from before the mat
ter of location is determined.
