EX-COMMLSSIONER WEIGH.

Captain j. NJ. Welch, who yester-
day passed out Of office as a county
commissioner, has the right to ex-
pect from the WORLD a friendly
tribute Of respect. He has for six
years been the county commissioner
of this district. His duties have
been exacting, often puzzling. In
his entire service, he. has done his
duty as he saw it. Fond of the
smiles of the public-as any man,
within certain bounds, has a right
to be-he never has failed to act
bravely, when frowns were sure to
follows Trego county will never be
too old for the captain and his friends
to review with just pride the part
which he bore in a critical period of
her infancy in moulding her fnan-
cial character. 1t is doubtless a
source of satisfaction to him to re-
alize that he has virtually seen the
building of our elegant new court
house completed.

started rapidly. He would like to
see one at Oakley and another at
Tribune to start with, and others
filled in on the happen-so plan. Ii
the basis of his reasoning-that IS
to say, his notion that western Kan
sas is to look solely to the sugar
interest for her Development is
correct, about ninety-nine one
hundredths of the population may
as well 60 now. Why? Because
it will be years before more than
about one-hundredth of the people
in western Kansas can be within
reaching distance of sugar mills.
This self-evident conclusion proves
the absurdity of Governor Clicks
one ideaism. In seeking to fortify
strongly his point, he has nearly
destroyed the force of his argument.
1t does not weaken the argument
in favor Of sugar factories to con-
cede the facts concerning the merits
Of western Kansas. Sorghum is
not the only farm product which
can be grown with fair success out
here, and Governor Click ought to
know it. Wheat, rye, broom-corn,
millet and several other farm prod
ucts can be grown with as much
certainty as sorghum.
The governor makes great blum
der when he asserts that, without
Indian corn, cattle "csn not be raised
on profitable scale" The cattle
business in western Kansas has been
just like business of any kind any,
where else-sometimes booming and
paying, at other times depressed and
non-paylng.
When anybody wants to demon
strate that the manufacture of
sugar out here should be used as
one of the factors in the develop
ment of western Kansas, we are
with him. When he, on the other
hand, attempts to prove that nothing
but sorghum can be grown profit
ably in western Kansas, we are
against him.

A BONANZA FOR OLD SOLDIERS.
They Are Entitled to Government
Money They Know Nothing OF.

P1TTsBURa, Pa, Dec 81, 18SS.-Private
Dalzell, of Ohio, in letter to friend in
this city few days ago, made q state
ment the significance of which is not
known to one in thousand. It is to the
effect that there is law of congress al
lowing soldiers who were captured and
imprisoned while in the line of duty, or
their representatives, twenty eight cents
day while so confined. By the same
law soldiers on furlough we're entitled to
twenty-five cents a day and five cents a
mile for transportation to and from the
army. Widows and orphans of the
soldiers included in either or both of these
classes are entitled to this money, which,
on an average, amounts to $35 for each
pensioner in America-some more and
some less. The whole amount thus due
to soldiers or their widows and orphans
is $14,O00,OO0. In his communication
Mr.. Dalzell stated that he had made the
discovery Of the existence of such law
by accident. He wrote to Washington
and got his money without question.
Every other soldier or pensioner can do
the same thing. he says: "This is my
New Years gift to the Union soldiers,
their widows and orphans in America"
The statement was shown to prominent
lawyer here who Is familiar with the
pension laws, who said he had just made
the same discovery. He added: "That is
the law and no mistake"

ALREADY At 1T.

therefor.

ing an answer to the prayer en-
braced in Mr.. Wheeler's resolution

GOVERNOR CLICKS SUGAR-MLLLS
THEORY.

THEORY.
In anticipation of meeting gen
eral want among our readers, we
this week lay before them Ex-Gov-
ernor Clicks recent article in the
Kansas Farmer upon the subject of
sugar mills.
In reviewing that article the
WORLD will agree with the governor
just as far as it considers it proper
to do so. We favor the legislative
aid policy which he agitates. If
carried into effect, this aid would
undoubtedly be the means Of a num-
Der of sugar factories being started
in western Kansas within the next
few years.
But what Of the ground upon
which Governor Click bases his ar
gument in favor of this legislative
aid? We behold here spectacle of
q man who should be philosopher
in agricultural matters making the
unvarnished statement that agri-
culture and stock growing have been
proved to be failures in western
Kansas, and that the salvation of
this portion of the state depends
npon the development of the sor-
ghum-sugar industry. Now, he is
