WICHITA AND OMNIPOTENCE.

No artificial stimulus could have located
it at any other place. She will always
hold just the relative position that she
does now aud all the appeals to sectional
prejudice i'll which the Kansas City daily
papers may indulge will not change it
h. c. Times.
Cincinnati so talked once and so once
talked St. Louis, Kansas City will not
talk so dozen years hence. She will
know too much. westward the star
of empire takes its way" but the hills of
Kansas City have not been dug down
sufficiently yet for the Times to see the
star of empire, nor yet the coming
greatness of Wichita, one of that stars
things. God Almighty measured the
magnitude of this dominant domain and
He set the standard Of its possibilities.
Kansas City may be too much beer-soak-
ed to see it, but it is fact all the same
A great city, greater city than Kansas
city, therefore, is not only possible in
the midst of such an empire, but of the
same necessity of that which compels
water to run down hill. Speaking of
waters, we suppose the Times doesn't
even know that the native white winter
crystals which crown the brow of the
"Mount of the Holy Cross" away to the
northwest OF Leadville. and that the
waters Of the summer cloud which rests
its glory, flow through this city and on
to the sea. The Kaw river, from the
mouth Of which the Times speaketh,
heads-the Lord only knows where.
We beseech the esteemed cotemporary
that it more closely encompass its i'm
agination when it comes to talk of Kan
sas City's situation touching its second
airy relations to Wichita, and to other
things which have been so plainly mark
ed out by the unerring finger of Omnip-
otenCe.

THE WINDY WONDER.


The EAGLE in "a invented the term
windy wonder for the benefit of Kan
sas City's real estate initiation. Lennon,
the then editor of the Newton Republi-
can, aided and abetted by lot of other
editors who didn't know enough to In
vent term sufficiently expressive OF
their own envy of Wichita, took up the
expression and nailed it to the Peerless
Princess. We have waited years and
patiently for relief from this featherless
fowl of moving air, which thus came
home to do its roosting, but it comes and
from the most unexpected source. The
Kansas City Times acknowledges that
kansas City has caught her second
wind" The Washington Post comment
ing on the windy admission breezily OBJ
serves:
1--WE didn't know whether it was the
second or the sixteenth, but we We're
pretty sure it was wind, and we will adj
NIT that we are not at all surprised to
learn that Kansas City has caught it.

OPTION DEALING,

Among other things touched upon by
Henry Grady in his address before the
students of the Virginia university, was
the question of centralized wealth, and
the danger with which it threatens the
liberties of the people. He said:
Economists have held that wheat.
grown everywhere, could never be cor
nered by capital. And yet one man in
Chicago tied the wheat crop in his hand
kerchief and held it until a sewing
woman in my city, working for ninety
cents week, had to pay him twenty
cents tax on the sack of flour she bore
home in her famished hands. Three
men held the cotton crop until the Eng
lish spindles stopped and the lights went
out in three million English homes.
Last summer one man cornered pork
until he had levied tax of three dollars
a barrel on every consumer and pocketed
profit of millions. The car of Russia
would not have dared to do these things,
and yet there are no secrets in this free
government of ours"

Opportunity vs.. Chance.

Benjamin Creswick was a Sheffield
workman, earning his living by the
sweat of his brow, and with apparently
no prospect before him but a life OF
manual labor. But he had the good for
tune to live on the Wakely hillside, and
one Saturday afternoon, when the
weather was too dirty" for walk, be
strolled into the museum which Nr.
Ruskin and the brethren of ST. Georges
Guild had established at Wakely. 1t was
the turning point of his life, for it opened
UP to him a new world and future full
of endless possibilities He borrowed of
the curator, the late Mr. Swan, two pho
tographs of Dir. Ruskin, and Set to work
to model bust of the author of Modern
Painters OF course he had no technic-
al knowledge, and il was but poor at
tempt, but there was the hall mark of
genius on it all the same, and Mr.. Rusk-
in, who was shown the work, was so
struck with it that he invited Mr. Cres-
wick to Brentwood, and afterwaxd ar
ranged for him to study sculpture at Ok
ford, with the result that he Is now at
the head of the modelling department of
the famous birmingham Municipal
School of Art.

KANSAS CITY AND KANSAS.

The Kansas City Times comes out for high license
just Whas Kansas CITY passred The Tines
that nearly every city in Kansas is langushing foi
Rs is
L says that the prohibition experiment has cos,
WAS the en1u soad ~
void Of proft.-Wichita Eagle.
The paragraph is somewhat mixed.
We are not quite clear on what business
principle Kansas City can desire prohi-
bition in Kansas if it finds prohibition
devoid of profit. But it may be that
the idea that Colonel Murdoch wishes to
convey is that Kansas City desires pro-
hibition in Kansas because Kansas
towns are languishing for want of rev.
enue. And there is chance to construe
the paragraph to mean that Kansas City
does not want prohibition in Kansas be-
cause it prevents Kansas City from sell
ing liquor in Kansas, and thereby de-
prives it OF source of revenue.
1t the last meaning is intended we as
sure Colonel Murdoch that Kansas City
is not suffering from the lack of good
Kansas cash coming here in exchange
for some OF our poorest grades Of liquor.
If he will read The Times of Friday he
will discover that our liquor dealers are
dong a fiourishing trade
in wet goods. One firm
reports that its exports into
Kansas amount to 100000
annually, and they all agree that their
business would not be benefited by open
saloons. The Kansas City liquor trade
in Kansas is taking care of itself and
does not need looking after. 1t is the
Kansas towns that the Times is interest
ed in.
If Colonel Murdoch wishes to convey
the impression that Kansas City desires
that will injure town or de-
preciate the value of town lot in Kan
sas, he falls into an error very common,
either through ignorance or design. Of
the city papers of Kansas. 1t is absurd
to suppose that Kansas City would wish
to injure Kansas, and it is the height of
foolishness for Kansans to attempt to in
jure Kansas City. Kansas City is in
terested in the prosperity of every town
in Kansas. She wants to see them all
flourish. 1t is to her interests that they
should. And it is equally to the interest
Of Kansas to have Kansas City do well.

MORE LIGHT ON OPTION DEALING.

Governor Francis, of Missouri, who
was formerly president of the st. Louis
Merchants Exchange, and who signed
the grain inspection bill passed by the
late Missouri legislature, was called to
the witness stand a few days since at
Kansas City, when he was asked to ex-
plain the difference between dealings in
margins in wheat and actually buying
and selling that grain. The dispatch
says:
Governor Francis is directly interested
in the proceedings, as the suit is that Of
d. Il. Francis & Bros. against Benjamin
b. Lyon and 7. B. Price TO recover the
face value of two notes for $50, 600, with
5 per cent interest, given by Lyon
& Price TO pay for margins
in purchases of wheat. The suit
was instituted in st. Louis and
transferred to this city on change Of
venue, on the ground that the firm of
d. r. Francis & Bros. exercised too
great an influence over the inhabitants
of St. Louis for Lyon & Price to obtain
fair trial there. The defendants
hold that the notes are void because
given in settlement of gambling deal.
Governor Francis declares that every
bushel of wheat purchased was to have
been delivered if not sold before the dav
of delivery. If a man was solvent"
said the governor this morning, land
the margin was against him, we gener-
ally hold over for him until rise, and
if there was no rise we would sue him
for the difference, as we are now doing.
II o man was insolvent we SOLD right
away, applying whatever deposit he had
left as security.
Speaking of the inspection bill. Gov
ernor Francis said he had signed it be-
cause he believed the people of the
state wanted it. He said the people of
ST. Louis were the only ones opposed to
the biz.
