A DISASTROUS LIAR.

Some fellow signing himself Farmer
in the Beacon makes an appeal to his
brother farmers to vote for Rufus Cone
because Cone stood by the farmers and
furnished them goods on credit during
the grasshopper year. ''Farmer'C9 says
he himself was carried through the dis
astrous period by Cone. Farmer" is
the most disastrous liar that ever stuck
his oar in a campaign in this section,
and we don't make single exception,
not even of all the who have
stumped this county in the past. Cone
probably never saw grasshopper He
owned no store in Sedgwick county dur
ing the grasshopper year and so far as
we know was not resident of the state
at that time. The Democratic party is
welcome to the vote of this Farmer
and to all the other farmers whom Rufus
Cone helped during the grasshopper
season. If the truth was known some
very small sized ward bum masaueraded
as Farmer" and not only lied about
himself but attempted TO deceive honest
people.

DEMOCRATS TRADING OFF.

1t has leaked out that there is want
of good faith among some of the Demo-
cratic nominees and regular treachery
among some of the fellows who have
been working for Democratic candidates.
There are fellows who are trying to work
their particular candidate into office at
the expense of any or of all the balance
guess work, but the names, dates and
places could be given by this paper was
it to the interest of the Republican party
to do it. The trading is pretty rough on
some of the Democratic nominees, who
seem entirely oblivious to what is being
done. We want, however, to warn Re-
publicans in the Third commissioner dis
trict to keep their eyes open. On Friday at
Cheney, a canvasser who claimed to
represent Allen was trading any two
men on the Democratic ticket for a vote
for Allen. We have some names in this
connection, too. In the Third district
such trade, however, mean it
may to the Democratic ticket, hurts
Randall, and Republicans wants to keep
an eye out for such work. On Thursday
at another place and nearer Aliens home
like trade was offered. 1t is none of
the EAGLES business how the Democrats
may take such undetermined work, but
it is the business of the EAGLE to inform
the Republicans of that district that the
attempt is being made to trade Demo-
cratic commissioner on to them, which
trade, while it hurts the Democratic
ticket as whole, yet it hurts Tom Ran

FROM WICHITA, KANSAS.

The Erie (oa.) Dispatch
Mr.. D Hayford of Mexican, who has
just returned from an extended trip
through Kansas and Oklahoma, brought
back with him some interesting speci-
mems of vegetable growth, which he has
duly deposited in the Dispatch depart
ment of wonders and curiosities. Among
the articles which were grown at Wich-
tia. Kan. are some large and beautiful
apples, number of monstrous ears Of
gourd-seed corn, one of which Mr. Hay
ford said contained 1914 kernels, which
we took his word for; and melon which
weighed something over fifty pounds
when started from Kansas and about
twice as much when he reached home.
The display is certainly very fine, and
can be seen at the dispatch counting
room for a few days.

CAPT. DAN MURPHY MISREPRE
SENTEO.
To the Editor of the Eagle.

To the Editor Of the Eagle.
An article published in an evening pa
per over the signature of one Daniel E..
Breese, of Colwich, was unquestionably
written to injure my chances Of election.
This man Breese states that he knows
that l have 800 acres of excellent land,
well improved; that l have lots of hogs
and horses and 800 head of cattle, and
that l owe no debts. But the truth is
he knew nothing of my financial CONN.,
ton when he wrote the article. His
statements are false in every particular.
Instead of 800 head of cattle l have
twenty-one, eight head of horses, hogs
worth about $3.50; my land is cucumber
ed to the amount of $4,000. This state
ment of facts would not have been given
to the public if that paper had not SO
far refused to publish an article couched
in respectful language in refutation of
the unbushing falsehood.
Respectfully, DANIEL MURPHY,
hep. candidate for register of deeds.

a BUCKEYE IN KANSAS.

A short time ago Mr.. c. W. Beardsley,
of Council Grove, O., made visit to
Southern Kansas. and on his return he
gave his impressions of the state and its
cities and towns, as far as he saw them,
in a communication to the Vidette, his
home paper, from which the subjoined
extracts are taken:
Il have just returned from Southern
Kansas, and desire to give my opinion as
to its prospects for settling up. and the
extraordinary inducements offered men
here who own but q few acres of farm
land.
This year has been for that portion of
Kansas very favorable for good crops. 1t
has been demonstrated beyond a doubt
TO be one of the most productive coun-
tries west of the Allegheny mountains.
While it has its disadvantages with all
other sections, it certainly has adj
vantages over almost any other part Of
the United States.

If every man on the Republican ticket
was not thoroughly honest, a man of
spotless integrity, if he was not eminent
ly capable, if he was not worthy in
every respect, the EAGLE would, even
though he were fairly nominated, hest
tate to give him endorsement and cordial
support. Such, however, is not the case.
The Republican candidates, without an
exception, are up to the highest standard
in all essential respects. and for that rea-
son the EAGLE urges all Republicans to
do themselves, their party and their
county the honor to stand by and give
them rousing majority on Tuesday
next. The party has majority of not
less than one thousand in Sedgwick
county. and no candidate on the ticket
should have vote less on his surplus
side next Tuesday night.

RAILWAY CONSTRUCTION FOR 1899.

The Railway Age of Chicago, states
that the aggregate construction of new
mileage for 1899 will exceed that OF
any year since SO. The work of track
laying has been in progress during the
past twelve months in thlrty-nine of the
forty-seven states and territories, with
the result of adding to the main line
mileage 3.3i2 miles, exclusive of side
tracks and not counting double tracks.
The work of November ami December
Will add largely to this aggregate. The
new state of Washington stands at the
head of the list and Georgia occupies
second place. The greatest activity in
railroad building has been in the south.
which denotes the rapid commercial
progress which is being made by that
section. Eleven southern states, includ-
ing Texas, aggregate nearly 45 per cent
of the total number of miles constructed
during the year. In Missouri and Kan
sas, where there has been little done in
the way of constructing new mileage,
the companies are devoting their atten-
ton 10 the more thorough equipment of
the roads already built and are thus
meeting need that has long been APP
parent.
