THAT GOLD FIND IN OKLAHOMA.

To the Editor of the Eagle.
| hope the readers of the EAGLE will
not be deceived by the statement sent
abroad that gold has been found in Okla
homa. 1t is safe to say that if any gold
has been found there, it has been brought
from the mountains in the pocket of
some enterprising boomer and planted
where it would do the most good, and
the wonderful discovery @ sprung upon
the public at this particular time to in
1uence legislation and cause a rush into
that coveted land. The writer is well
acquainted with the locality of the al
legged discovery and knows that gold is
not found in any such geological forma-
ton
About fifty years ago the Northwestern
Fur company had a trading post
on the north side of Canadian river a
few miles east of the present town of
Purcell, called Choteau, on creek bear
ing the same name, and some of the
ruins of their old establishment may
have been discovered. giving rise to the
story of the old Spanish mines.
There is plenty of gold in Oklahoma
fol- those who may in the future cult
vate the soil of that fertile territory, and
produce corn and wheat, cattle and hogs
and fruit, but no gold will be washed
out of the sands of her rivers or bluffs,
unless placed there by the hand of man.

TRIBUTE TO LINCOLN.

The following splendid tribute to one
Of Americas greatest statesmen and
foremost patriots, our first martyr-presi-
dent, Abraham Lincoln, is from the pen
of Henry w. Grady, editor of the At
lanta, Ga, Constitution, written and
published on the eightieth birthday, the
18th inst, of the dead hero:
"Great types, like valuable plants, are
slow to flower and fruit. But from the
union of these colonists, from the
Strengthening of their purposes and the
crossing of their blood, slowly perfect
ing through a century, came he who
stands as the first typical American, the
first who comprehended within himself
all the strength and gentleness, all the
majesty and grace of this republic
Abraham Lincoln. He was ? the
sum Of Puritan and Cavalier, for in
his ardent nature were fused the
virtues of both, and in the depths of his
great soul the faults of both were lost.
He was greater than Puritan, greater
than Cavalier, in that he was American,
and that in his homely form were gath
cred the vast and thrilling forces of this
ideal government, charging it with such
tremendous meaning and so elevating it
above human suffering that martyrdom,
though UNANIMOUSLY aimed, came as
fitting crown to life concentrated from
its cradle to human liberty. Let us,
each cherishing his traditions an honor
ing his faiths, build with roverent hands
to the type of this simple but sublime
life, in which all types are honored, and
in the common glory we shall win, as
Americans, there will be plenty and to
spare for your forefathers and for mine.

do not judiciously, expeditiously and
emphatically sit down on the little sell

reached through the ballot box. As to
the length of the legislative session, I'M
less the proposed extension should afford
some assurance that it would effect a
decided charge for the better in the
character of the legislation, the people
would be far from approving it. Fifty
days of the sort we are accustomed to,
taken as a whole, is more than enough

The resignation of Premier Floquet
and the entire French cabinet was a COM
plete surprise to the chamber, as it must
have been to the people of France gen
orally. 1t seems to have been, if not q
part of Boulanger's plans, at least ex-
pected by him. The hour seems to be
rapidly approaching for the complete dis
closure of his real designs. The French
republic has passed through similar ex-
peuences successfully heretofore, but
there was no Boulanger on the scene at
such times. That he will find himself at
the head of government ere long the
signs appear to indicate very clearly, but
whether it will be as president, OF en-
peror, or dictator is not as clear, though
it is hoped the former, by everybody in
this country at least.

The Board at Wichita.

Topeka Journal.
The members of the board of railroad
commissioners returned to the city yes
terday afternoon from Wichita. where
they have been for the past two days.
The object of their visit to the self-styled
Peerless Princess" was to investigate
the complaint of the citizens of Wichita
Heights, village upon the Frisco line
six miles north of Wichita, against the
Frisco railroad company for not provid-
ing reasonable station facilities, an ac-
commOdation to the public. The
and will make report of the facts in the
case as they ascertained them, in deci-
sion at an early date.
While in Wichita the board had an
opportunity to take a look over the town
and visit several of the principal manu-
factories and other places of interest
The manufacturing industry of the city
is an important and growing one, which
all loyal Kansas may and should take
pride in. The commissioners were sur
prised at the number of large business
houses and fine private residences in
Wichita. The place has probably built
ahead Of itself and the present needs in
the former line. In the matter of fine
residences she is the only city in the state
which can make pretentions to any sort
of rivalry with Topeka. The gentlemen
pronouce the new electric street railway
recently put in operation in that place
success, having ridden upon it and OBJ
served its operation closely. The COM
missioners were very favorably impress
ed by our southwestern neighbor as
whole.

The EAGLE is continually laboring I'M

the laws and is responsible for the odious
metropolitan police system. We do not
ike 10 even attempt TO correct this i'm
preston. 1t Is too foolish. The metropol-
itan police law WAS created by the leSiSla-
ture duly assembled and the law Is exc
cuted by the executive council, for whom
Topeka no more than Wichita attempts to
speak. The present bill To govern cities of
the first-class is of interminable length
and has been see-sawed. and changed by
nearly everybody and is not likely 10 pass.
The bad features in ii, and the metropoll-
tan police provision is one of them. may
carry the whole of the bill down. The
Journal has denounced that law as bad
one because it tends Is make the state as
sumo the reins that localities should
handle themselves. Ii is important that
many changes in laws governing cities
should BE- made. but the bin is nos right
as roported.-Topeka Journal
The impression that the metropolitan
police law was enacted at Topeka ana
imposed upon this city by the power that
rested at Topeka are simple conclusions
of facts. However, if the matter shall
take the course indicated DIV the journal
as above, the EAGLE has no desire TO
press it further. Even handed justice is
all that il has asked or viii ask.

Was Woman, whom he made helpmeet to earthly

An angel clad in human form. all peace and good
Man from the dust was formed. though good and
wise,
He of the earth would earthly still remain,
But God this angel gave to pint him to the skies,
And to purer life his crude affections train
And since that day has Woman blest his lot.
Hast cheered his heart when torn by petty fears,
Impaired TO his darkened mind the light OF hope
And DER his sorrow shed her sympathetic tears
When crushed and broken by his sins and shame
And shrinking from the gaze Of other men,
Her arms enfold him while she bravely shields his
name;
Assists his fatering steps and helps him try again
When dire disease with feverish arms enfolds
And clasps him to its breast in dread embrace,
Then Woman, by her tender care and love untold.
Shows kinship to the fcunt OF love that all can
trace
Midst the distractions Of busy life,
When Man (no time to think Of higher things,
Becomes all hardened with lis ceaseless bitter strife
With heart and soul made desperate by its buffet
ings;
Then Woman. with her higher. purer, aims.
And sympathetic heart, inspires his soul
With nobler hopes and zeal; then helps him break
the chains
Tia, hold him bound, and by her love she makes
him whole.

The tendrils OF whose love are crushed and dead
With hardened heart, embittered by distrust and
hate,
Atmantion of his mother, with reverence bows
his head.
The blessed influence one good Woman wields
Ger those with whom she may be called to move,
Is equailed by no other power, and yields
a harvest rich and full, TO be garnered up above;
While Man, by labored process, reaches right,
Then ponders long for fear he may mistake,
Woman at once. by intuition's keener sight,
The subtle problem solves and proves her finer
