The Point Is Wen Taken.

frotn TIC EinIoria RepUoIlcAN
The Wichita papers abound in ac-
counts of burglaries- Clearly the law
against burglary is failure and ought
to be abolished. What we need to
make money plenty and times good in
Kansas is a law to regulate burglary,
not suppress it. Every burglar should
be made to pay license OF $1G0 or 500
a year. This would tighten taxes, and
our citizens would not have to go to
Kansas City or St. Louis to get robbed,
thus keeping our money at home. The
question should be submitted to the
people.

a Great Deal OF Trouble.

IFEUU
The Wichita EAGLE is having a great
deal of trouble in contradicting the hars
who send specials" to the K. c. Times
and other papers, from that city. As
rule, the special liar makes business
of lying for the money there is in it. He
is paid so much a line and isn't instructed
TO tell the truth. So when there Is no
news to send, he manufactures lies and
sends them flying over the wires, with
out regard to consequences.

The &. C.,L. 81 W. Railroad

From the Lawrence Journal
The adoption of the ordinance by the
council, and the resulting railroad con-
nections, will be worth to the city a pres
ent value of at least half a million of
dollars, besides the undoubtedly great
and increasing volume of business it will
bring in the future.

1t transpires that the Samoan question
was not altogether so vexed as was sup
posed it would be before the meeting of
the joint commission appointed by the
three governments in interest to settle it.
Germany found at the outset that it was
not to be a game of bluff but matter of
business, and her representatives have
governed themselves accordingly. The
URjted States only asked that simple JUS
tice be done in the premises and would
have agreed to nothing else. On that ba-
Sis a settlement was easy enough and has
now been accomplished.

Cincinnati may, under certain extran-
eous circumstances, do without her Sun
day beer, but she must have her Sunday
ball game. Our notion is that the Sun
day game might be dispensed without
serious detriment to anybody, not ex-
cepting the high-salaried players; never
theless it must be admitted that other
pastimes fully as harmful as game of
ball, per Sc, are INDUCED in the year
round with impunity and apparently
without doing violence to law or morals.

If the editors of the Atchison Cham

read the recent order of the railway
commissioners touching Wichita freight
rates they would write with much more
sense. They seem to be talking about

lous in the light of Wichita's memorial
and the discussion which followed.

The Atchison Champion and Wichita

noon. He was down with the team after
some fertilizers at the depot and while the
