Ex-senator Palmer will soon resign az
minister TO Spain. Foreign missions
seem to rather pail on the taste of the
American statesman of to-day. If we
except the London, Paris and Berlin
courts. the other European missions seem
to go begging among the class of pub
lie men who would be considered fit
representatives of this country. The
Russian mission is almost always beg
ging, and the minister to the court OF
Vienna was appointed solely on the
ground that his father was a great man.
The smaller Europen nations and the Re-

Mr.. CETIUS E. JOE.

JdcWlm Pan Sugar Manufacturer,
bcgS to call The special attention of
Masters and Planting Attorneys of Sugar
Estates to the beneficial improvements Of
the above process, for which he is prepar-
ed to erect on estates, a very scientific and
economical apparatus, the operation Of
which is to destroy the dark din9y colour
IN clarified liquor; which is caused by an
excess OF inSoluble Lime, and foreign inn
puritieS held i'm solution, which are per
Ceptible in sugars not treated to remove
such effect, both to the taste and Smell, and
at times sight. These matters to a great
degree are obstacles to capitalization. and
to the drainage Of (the So-callrd) molaSSeS.
The guaranteed advantages claimed by this
immediate apparatus are viz:
LIST. Only Il few ounces OF Sulphur are
necessary to bleach 6 or 700 gallons Of
liquor, rendering a pure amber coloured
semi-tramSparent brightness, which feature
also appears in the sugar made from it.
2nd. The entire apparatus consists Of a
small P%ltchpine box or press of 20 inches
square ON either side, no sulphur oven re-
CURED, no pipes required to make filings
and Steamjet the liquor on its passage
through the press acts in place OF a jet,
while the sulphur is burnt in the same
press at the same time, and the liquor pass
ing absOrbS, and is bleached by an ade-
quate amount Of Sulphuretted Hydrogen
Gas, i'll its purest state.
The necessity of such an apparatus, will
at once be seen through, from an imprOv-
ing and essential point of view, and should
never be done without on sugar Estates,
particularly those having Vacuum Pans,
and MuScovado Sugar Estates having
AgitaterS, or Steam Pans. But it is, and
will be found, equally necessary to all.

SOUND JAKE ADMIRE.

When it was urged upon President
Cleveland that Oklahoma must be open
ed he expressed fears of the result I'M
less territorial government was first es-
tablished. 1t was pointed out to him
that in all American history the con-
trary had been true. Discussing the
same subject at the opera house In March
last Judge Sluss showed that from
Plymouth Rock to the Golden Gate the
American settler had preceded govern
ment. From the moment that the first
settler put his foot inside of the Okla
homa line the EAGLE has had reliable
men on the ground and our columns
attest that there has been no bloodshed
and no outlawry beyond that to be found
in the oldest communities. The unex-
pected is that which generally happens.
In replying to these stories of murder,
etc., published In the sensational dailieS
of this and other cities, Jake Admire,
the U. S. receiver at Lisbon, says:
The stories circulated in the eastern
press in regard to the disorder, confu-
sion, danger and outlawry that exist in
Oklahoma are absolutely false, and in
many cases malciously so. Better or
der has existed in this town from the
very outstart than would have
existed under similar circumstances
in any town in Kansas. A parallel to
the order, good humor and decency that
now exists in Oklahoma cannot be found
in the history of the world. The facts
so far established seriously raise the
question whether the American people
are not better able to govern themselves
without laws than with them.
While not agreeing with Mr.. Admire
in his declaration as to a parallel for
good order we do answer the question
affirmatively. The American people are
governed too much. There are too
many officers by one half and too many
laws. 1t is true with reference to every
state and to every municipality. Too
much government has caused all of the
revolutions of all the ages. Excessive
9clesiastic laws and excessive civil laws
stand responsible for the sanguinarv side
of humanity's history. Give us fewer
laws and less government.

KANSAS LANDSCAPES.

The press of the state are talking just
now of Kansas landscapes. The most
wonderful landscape in Kansas, as it is
the most impressively beautiful, is the
view from the tower of Fairmont, the
Wichita Woman's college. Its sweep is
unrivalled, taking in the intersecting
valleys of the great Arkansas river, the
Ninnescah river and the Little Arkansas
river, and the minor streams of CHS
holm, Gypsum, Cowskin and Red Bud,
twenty-five miles to the south, twenty
miles to the west and eighteen miles to
the north. The city of Wichita is at the
feet of the beholder, and within the
reach of the naked eye the towns and
villages of Valley Center, Sedgwick
City, Maize, Colwich, Mt Hope, Andale,
Germania, Oatville, Gladdis, Haysville,
Goddard and Derby. The waters of the
rivers CLEAN like green fringed silver
bands winding and threading field of
illimitable emerald. With good glass
on clear morning nearly two thousand
farms with their orchards, their groves
and their hedges and homes are seen
and their boundaries defined. The
swelling prairies of Harvey county are
visible to the north and the rolling hills
of Butler to the east. The pastoral
glory of this view is beyond the descrip-
tive powers of any faber which we have
ever vet sharpened.

THERE HAS BEEN NO BLOODSHED
GUTHRIE, l. T., May 6, 1889.

GUTHRIE, l. T., May ., 1889.
% the Editor of the Eagle.
Two weeks ago the most adverse criti-
cism against Oklahoma would have been
allowed without protest because she had
then not one legal resident within her
borders. But today she has 25, 900 zeal
Gus defenders who feel that their adopt
ed country has been very unjustly dealt
with by all of the eastern papers and
many in the west of whom they had a
right to expect fair play.
Let it be remembered that Oklahoma
has been opened up under conditions
better calculated to bring about strife
and contention than ever existed before
in the settlement of any new country.
But with every disadvantage against
her, look at the record that Oklahoma
has made in the brief period since her
settlement.
General Merritt says that not one
murder has been committed IN Okla
hona since its first settlement and this
is correct, notwithstanding the many
sensational reports to the contrary
More conflicting interests have arisen
and been adjusted here since the 22d of
April than in any ten states of the
union III the same period of time.
The extent of the Misrepresentation
is shown by the letters which are re-
ceived here daily. The following is a
sample written by a Chicago girl to her
lover:
Dear Louis: Please return home for
my sake. If not for mine, for the sake
| of YOUR mother whose whole soul is
wrapped up in you. | cannot sleep for
| thinking of the murders that are being
committed around you, and am in con-
| slant dread of hearing that you are the
next victim"
| Here is another received by promi-
nent official of one of the GuthrieS:
Dear Uncle: The papers are so full
| of terrible stories about Guthrie. They
say there is not enough to eat and no
| good water. We all want you to come
/ home. but if you can't come write and let
US know If you are suffering.
| The mails are loaded with these kind
/ of appeals. The facts are that there
| has been no bloodshed III Guthrie. nor is
/ there likely to be. Good sense and a
| spirit OF concession prevails ali over
/ the city. Claimants TO lots who
staked out 30xl40 feet have relinquished
| five feet or more of their front in order
| that those who were thrown into the
street by the survey might be accommo-
/ dated. This has been voluntarily done
| by people along entire blocks.
| There are kickerS and dissenters but
| they are hopeleSsly in the minority. 4
meeting called for the pur-
| pose of displacing Mayor Over

eminent and inauguratiag a new one
failed to materialIze. They could unite
only in opposition 10 the present survey
When they attempted to formulate a
| plan of their own they divided into 2
half dozen warning factions. Nearly all
the contests for lots IN what is known as
Guthrie proper are near the land Office.
The other organizations. five in number.
consisting Of East Guthrie, West Guth-
| RE, North Guthrie, South Guthrie and
Capitol Hill, are running smoothly and
all differences promise TO be speedily and
| equitably settled. G.. W. MCMILLES.

The Wichita EAGLE reminds the Times
that it is unfair in saying that one-fifth of
Wichita's population is demanding that
the joints must go when everybody con-
cedes, even the joint keepers themselves,
that the joints are not only all gone, but
have been gone all along. Truly we were
not aware of that fact, and still think that
the EAGLE is mistaken. But it is the
EAGLES fight, not our own. We wish
Wichita much temperance and prosperity.

The EAGLE would not debar any one
from participating in racket which is a
kind OF a free for all, all around round
up, but cannot but commend the wis
dom of its esteemed contemporary in its
resolve for q whole head and an unjoint-
ed nose. With all Wichita'S conceded
temperance and great prosperity the
EAGLE will remain in the ring until a
conclusion.

In forecast of the probable magni-
tude of the next centennial celebration.
one hundred years hence, the New York
Tribune expects that the industrial
parade will very likely, take a more
easteriy course, forming in the western
corner of Connecticut, and moving down
through White Plains, Mt. Vernon. Nor
riSania, and disbanding IN Harlem. not,
of course, coming down below Central
Park among the bonded warehouses ana
factories, the region being deserted from
the fact that it will be q holiday Now,
perhaps Wichita will then be the center
of business and the industrial parade
will take place there. with delegation
by balloon from New York TO help the
show along.
