WEATHER.CROP BULLETIN.

OF the Kansas weather service, in CO.
operation with the United States Signal
Service, for the week ending July 26th,
1890:
The rainfall has been very unequally
distributed over the state this week. In
Riley county upward of two inches have
fallen, which, diminished eastward, falls
to one inch on reaching the Missouri
river. In COffey. upwards of two inches
fell, but diminishes toward the east,
drops to less than one inch in the eastern
part of Miami and Lyon. Heavy rains
fell in the southern half of Clark. extend
ing northeast through the western half
of COmanche and southeastern part of
kiowa and Pratt. Excellent rains in
the contiguous portions of Cove, Trego,
Ness and Lane, and the eastern counties
north of Greenwood, Woodson and Allen,
and good rains in Montgomery, ELI, Will
son, Greenwood. Woodson and Allen.
Fair rains in the extreme southwest.
There has been an excess of tempera-
ture and sunshine in the central and
western counties, the temperature reach
ing lib deg. on the 10th at Alton, but
week closed cooler. In the eastern
counties these conditions are about NOM
inal for the week.
Where good rains have fallen this week
the crops are doing well, especially hay,
pastures and late planted corn, while the
potato crop has improved, but in the dis
tricts not we'll watered the reports are not
favorable. In Greeley the late corn is in
good condition, but early corn is damag-
ed; wheat threshing is in progress and
the yield fair. this being the first real
wheat crop raised in Greeley county.
This being the general condition of the
corn over the state. Chinch bugs are
numerous in Coffey and Jewell aud are
attacking the corn. At Leavenworth
apples are plenty. In Bourbon corn, by
the load, has raised from % to IS cents
per bushel. In the eastern counties the
tomato crop is improving, but the mar
ket Is still scantily supplied, Flax gene
rally is proving paying crop.

PERHAPS there is not another railroad
company in existence that is so frequent

gressive Kansas, it must be admitted.
holds more public meetings and conven-
tons than any other state in the union,
and ii has become the second nature OF
her people to demand one-third or one
half rates on all such occasions. The
Santa Fe always grants it. In lieu OF
these facts would it not be eminently
proper and just for US to quit our howl
ing long enough to give the Santa Fe a
rousing vote of thanks? We think so.

WICHITA does not favor the renomi
nation of Governor Humphrey. The
prime cause is because of the governor:
action in appointing judge of the COM
mon pleas court who was distasteful to
the lawyers of that city. OF course the
friends of Governor Humphrey regret this
opposition. bnt it remains to be seen who
will make the nomination; the delegates
in convention assembled, or the sore
head lawyers and .'hobby" people Of the
Peerless Princess.

THE opposition to Senator Ingalls, is
very much like the dog barking at the
moon-it's hard on the dog and amusing
to the man in the MOON The public
record of John j. Ingalls, is one that
every kansan may well be proud of. He
is to-day the foremost man in the nation,
the peer to his colleagues and terror to
the democracy. To no other man is due
the prominence of the state of Kansas so
much as to Mr.. ingalls,, and republicans
need have no fear of his defeat in the
coming contest. Kansas is not yet old
enough to dispense with the wasp of the
senate "-Harty Graphic.

SOUTH AMERICA seems to be a natural
breeding ground for revolutions. No
sooner had the Brazilian revolution been
accomplished and government thor
oughly established than the Argentine
Republic starts in the same wake. and
looms up conspicuously as the scene of
another revolt, but this time the rebel
lion is against republican government.
So far the fighting has been confined to
Buenos Ayres, and the result 10 not yet
certain, though late dispatches indicate
an advantage for the revolutionary party.
Is it not strange that the Spanish Amer
lean people have such weakness for
revolutions?

Fate may, dear friend, have frowning skies,
As well rs smiling blue,
There are flowers and sunshine after storms
If the heart Is only true.
The sweetest buds of early spring,
Kept warm by winters snow,
Are like the true hearts Offering,
That smiles beneath its woe.
No matter, friend, what time may do,
Wherever may be,
Youth ever, ever find me true.
Still, I'll remember thee
We part, indeed, as truess friends,
Although It brings q Sigh;
But rest assured the heart feels most,
Whilst the lips but say good bye"
When moons shall wane and suns shall set,
And time shall be NO more,

ssIF L HAD A MILLION,

Il wish l had million dollars" is an ex-
preston often heard. Many of us poor
people who have never had more than few
hundred dollars at any one time in our lives
imagine, notwithstanding the assurance to
the contrary, that with million dollars at
our command we could indulge in all the
luxuries, pleasures and privileges our poor
hearts long for, and that too, without satia-
ton. Poor foolish mOrtals we are that we
do not know our own natures better. How
could we enjoy million dollars when we
do not know how to get the full need of
good out of the few dollars we may earn by
daily toll. We long to travel and see the
countries and places famous in history, yet
we cannot appreciate the greatness of
things near at hand in our own country that
may be seen free of cost. We imagine the
grand times we would have sailing from
sea port to sea- port of the world in fine
yacht, when we really have not the capa-
bilities to successfully plan canoe voy-
age along one of our picturesque streams
nor the faculties to derive from such vOy-
age the pleasures it holds in store. If we
had never been permitted to look up at the
| sky and had read of the sun, moon and
! stars and their wonderful aspects and heard
some poet sing the beauties of the heavens
of a cloudless summer night we would

There are too many books. If there were
not one half so many there would be more
read and they would be read to a greater
advantage. 1t there were not so many
Bibles there would be more Bible readers.
The Bible, we believe, is falling into disuse
with the common masses simply because
it has ceased to be precious book, that is,
from money standpoint. Bibles may now
be found in nearly every waste paper pile,
and may be seen lying in the alley ways
and street cutters. They are drug in the
book market. There is scarcely family
but has it's big Bible and old Bible and lit
tie Bible and Bible in every old chest,
bookcase and garnet in the home; yet the
Gle to-day as it was hundred years ago
when one Bible answered for the use of
whole family. 1t is the same with other
good books, they are not read as much as
had for nothing, or next to nothing. New
publ cations are thrust upon us so fast that
we do not finish reading the preface of one
before our eye is caught by the tempting
title of another. The greater number of
readers do not pretend to do more than
skim through book, which accounts for
the comparative ignorance of many fairly
intelligent persons who have read hundreds
of books. How it is in other countries we
do not know. but it does seem that our peo-
pie are fast becoming a race of biblioma-

three years. Contrast this with the brutal
sentence inflicted upon Private Wild of the
army for merely refusing to do little me-
NAL work. Wild was loaded with chains
and put at hard labor in a military prison,
while McCalla, who is guilty of much
more heniOus offense, is allowed to do Just
as he pleases for three years. Verify, it

never rest content until our eyes had be-
held the grandeur of the universe: yet how
seldom those who have the opportunity
ever turn their eyes in admiration to the
sky. We long to behold the lakes and riv-
ers of stored Italy, and at the same time we
are blind to the superior beauty and grand
eur of the surpassless lake or river on whose
shore we may be standing. And it is just
so with our wishes for millions of money;
we lose the pleasure that might be ours, by
looking ahead in imagination to the pleas
ures we would have with million dollars
at our command. If as poor men we CAN
not appreciate the beauty and fragrance of
the roses that bloom beneath the window of
our humble home. and hear the song of the
bird that sings to us from the tree top; if
we cannot find joy in friendship; if we can
not find pleasure in communion with nature
and the works of the Greater, then as mill
iOnaires our lives would be miserable fail
ures. We would discover that it was not
because we were poor that we could not en-
joy life, but because we had cultivated that
spirit which lead Macbeth to say my
more-having, would be as a sauce to make
me hunger more" We are not writing of the
desire for riches as being an evil. The de-
sire to be wealthy is natural to all men and
without it mankind would never have ad-
vanced to its present state OF civilization,
but would still be dwelling in huts and
mountain caves. 1t is the foolish wishing
for what we have not got and not appreci
ating what we have that makes so many
discontinued with their lot in the world.
No man could enjoy the use of a million
dollars unless he had enjoyed life while he
was earning it or had been reared in opu-
lence. All happiness comes from being con-
tent not with what chance brings, but with
what results from our best efforts.
"From labor health, from health contentment

Contentment opes the source of every joy.

courage individual intellectual effort, provide a
healthy journal for the inmates Of this and other
PRISONS and. above all. to acquaint the outside
