The session Of congress which opened
at noon today bids fair to be notable
one. For the first time in years the
republican party controls both houses,
as we'll as the executive department,
and much is expected from the winter S
work. Elaborate promises we're made
during the 1883 campaign and they
must be fulfilled. The majority is so
small that the opposition will have an
opportunity to block the wheels con-
siderably, but there should be more
practical, straightforward work for the
nations prosperity done than any re-
cent session of congress can show.
The tariff, worlds fair, deep-harbor
and other important measures that
will come up should be settled in ac-
cordance with republicanism and
which are one and the
same thing.

THE largest and NEST enthusiastic
meeting held in Wichita for year was
the anti-resubmission meeting held in
Garfeld's opera house on Wednesday
night. And, very unlike the resub-
mission meeting recently held, it was
composed of the best elements of soci-
ETY., including the most substantial
business men and many ladies. Unless
the Eagle and Journal mend their ways
they will soon cut AS small swath in
Wichita as the Democrat does in To
peka. a newspaper must reflect pub
lie sentiment, not try to suppress it.

THERE are a number of pseudO-poli-
ticians at Topeka who enjoy nothing
better than to catch the editor of some
interior paper in the lobby of a hotel
and pump him brimful of political
juice which he is expected to exude
through the columns of his paper when
he returns home. The Clay Center
Times and the lola Register have both
given exhibitions of successful work
ings of the scheme in the past week.
What some of these Topekans
don't know about the actual status OF
Kansas politics would make a volume
equally as large as what they do know
of putting up jobs. The lobby pOliti-
clans are good fellows to listen to, and
then let alone More can lie learned OF
state politics at the capital than else
where, but it is easy to learn therea lot
Of things that ain'tso.

THE Hutchinson News late poll of
the Kansas legislature on the resubmis-

in its results. Out of 165 senators and
representatives, 151 responded. Some
of the remainder are out of the state

the card. OF the 15l members sent in
there are only four resubmissionists
and in the fourteen remaining there
are six more-only total of ten who

WHOEVER wrote this got the whole
truth in nutshell: If you have a lit
tie farm or business and are OFT of debt
don't fret or work yourself and good
wife into the grave for the sake of
making money. You have but one
life to live, and it is very brief at best.
Take little comfort and pleasure as
you go along day by day, and try to do
little good to others. A morbid, in
satiate desire to possess the earth, to
grab everything in sight, is at the
foundation of more misery than any one
thing. Wealth alone will never keep
your memory green after you are gone,
a good life and kind actions will.
