HE HAD TO ST )P.

During the past week the streets have
become rather too dusty for this season of
the year. Noticing this fact last week Mr..
o. C. Daisy, of the Wichita Street Sprink-
ling company, concluded that he had bet
ter start out last Saturday with his lists
for subscribers on the principal business
streets. Monday morning be started out
again to add to his list, but before he got
half through the dust got so bad that
he could not stand it to wait
any longer to see his old friends
punished by the dust, which played, hide
and-seek with everything and everybody,
but he gave orders to his drivers to "let
'em go anyhow" at noon and the rest OF
the day the streets were entirely free from
dust. Mr.. Daisy took his chances on the
patronage he would receive, but says that
from the success with which he is meeting
his work was evidently appreciated. The
wind was up again yesterday evening and
unless it subsidies Mr.. Daisy can get out
his wagons again, lust for fun"

MERIT AND "LUCK."
According TO Goethe the Two Are Very
Closely United.

Closely United.
''The chapter Of accidents" 1t has been
well and forcibly said, lis the Bible Of the
FOOL" remarks the author of the Way to
Fortune This is one Of those sayings
which are apt only to seem smart and
striking, but are really deeper than they
look If the world and all its affairs pro-
coed according to purpose and moral law,
then it is clear that causation and not acct
dent obtains in the smallest thing as well
as in the greatest, only we are purblind and
do not perceive il, any more than the
senses, prisoned in this muddy vesture Of
decay" can perceive the celestial music OF
the spheres-which, indeed, is, after all,
another and more poetical name for causa-
ton. Dean Swift says; ''The power OF
fortune is confessed only by the miserable,
for the happy impute az their success to
prudence or merit"
Shallow men," says Emerson, "believe
in luck, believe in circumstances; 1t was
somebody's name, or 1t happened TO be
there at the time, or ne was so then, and
another day it would have been otherwise.
Strong men believe In cause and effect"
And again:
Gall successful men have agreed in on5
thing-they were causationists. They be-
teved that things went not by luck but by
law; that there was not a weak or a cracked
link in the chain that joins the first and last
of things
Of ali men the poet should be inclined to
recognize some kind Of propitious influence
as controlling the destiny Of individuals, and
yet the greatest and most successful poets
have practically taught that they believed
in no such thing. And in this respect, il In
no other, poetry has advanced from what
the positivists would cali the metaphysical
to the real or positive stage. No poet now
adays deems Of addressing himself for help
to that abstract and perfect parsonage, the
muse, VINO figured so prominently in poetry
from the days of Homer down TO compare
lively recent period The poets have
learned self help. They not only believe,
but act on the belief that the inspiration is
within, and that only energy and sincerity
to self can develop their genius. So, there
fore, Goethe declares that industry is nine
tenths of genius, and adds to it this axiom
as the result of his own experience: 1T
never occurs TO fools that merit and good
fortune are closely united" Notwithstand-
ing all that has been said Of lucky hits, y
the best kind OF success in every mans LIE
is not that which comes by accident. So
says Mr.. Smiles, and this is but a generali-
cation from the wide circle Of biography.
To see an advantage with clear eye, TO mark
it out unwaveringiy, and to follow 1t up
resolutely, is not luck

OPENING OKLAHOMA.
A LONG PULL. a STRONG PULL
AND A PULL ALTOGETHER.
To Be Made at a Monster Meeting IN
Wichita, to Ratify the Action OF the
House. The Senate to be
Memorialized.

AS the early opening of Oklahoma is
result much desired by the people OF the
southwest and the action Of the house OF
representatives, in passing the Springer
bill, is highly appreciated by the section
named. it has about been decided to hold
at an early date monster mass meeting
here in Wichita las the most accessible
city in the territory interested) for the pur-
pose of endorsing the action of the house
and also of urging upon the senate the eX-
pediency of opening Oklahoma
With this object in view the executive
committee of the Consolidated Oklahoma
association will be called together, proba-
bly, today, to agree upon date for this
demonstration Of approval and also to pro-
cure the attendance of prominent speakers
and make other arrangements, for that
occasion, which will be of vast Importance,
in giving to the senate and to the presl-
dent an idea of the anxiety and apprecia-
ton felt by the citizens of the southwest.
Should the senate in the meantime take
favorable action in the matter, the meet
ing can be made one of ratification
wholly. All towns in the pro-
posed territory, northern Texas
western Arkansas and southern
Kansas will be invited to be represented
and proper notice of the time to be agreed
upon will be given through the press. II
the time should not be far enough remote
to send invitations such notice will be con-
sidered sufficient This movement will
| be the action of the Consolidated Okla
homa Association and every city and per-
son having membership. it is expected,
will be represented. In addition, large
delegations outside of the association will
be present.
| 1t is useless to urge upon any community
at all interested in the matter the necessity
! for such action, for the reason that they
are all wide awake to the exigencies OF
the situation and fully appreciate the ben
| efts to be derived from the opening OF
| Oklahoma, with its attendant impetus tc
railroad building in this southwestern
country and the turning Of the tide of i'm
migration in this direction.

when it occurs to a young gentlemen to dc
this by standing every morning at be
corner of Douglas and Market and taking
for his mark the pigeons which strut Oh
the Biting block and other roofs, the am
bition becomes reprehensible and even
dangerous, and the young nimrod will
find to his cost that there are some persons
who are firmly convinced of this fact.
