NON-PARTISAN TEMPERANCE.
From the Medina, Ohio, Gazette.

/ From the Medina Ohio, Gazette
A temperance organization without
any political membranes is what the
/ Christian people of this strong temper
ance county have long desired. We are
/ glad to say that the Non-Partisan Wo-
/ mems Christian Temperance Union
meets this want. We have already two
prosperous unions in this county and an
/ encouraging outlook for several more,
which will enable a county organization
/ to be formed.
The state convention of the \. p. w.
c. T. I. has just been held at Fremont
and was an occasion of interest, bringing
together some of the best and ablest
ladies of Ohio. The day sessions were
held in the VI. f. church of that city,
whose honor roll bears the name of our
beloved Lucy Webb Hayes of imperish-
able remembrance.
The delegates were most cordially
greeted by a reception committee at the
depot, and were Hospitality entertained
IN the homes of the residents. The home
of ex-President Hayes having four
guests, who were treated with the same
transformations kindness that character
lied the less distinguished residents.
The evening sessions were in the Pres
byterian church, very large edifce, and
were largely attended.
The meetings were very harmonious,
and Mrs. Z. Phinney showed, as on
former occasions, her wonderful execu-
tive powers, and carried through an
amount of business that was surprising,
some times getting ahead of the pro-
gram.
The lines of work mapped out for the
coming year are such as commend them
selves to the most wOmanly of women,
and are almost wholly educational and
reformatory, and entirely in the line of
temperance, each local union being free
to adopt its own methods. The conven-
ton was made up of ladies of culture
and experience. As a guarantee of
which statement we need only to say
that Oberlin sent twelve, Cleveland
more than that number, while other
towns and cities were as well repre-
sented.
For detailed report it would require
a whole page of the Gazette. | will only
add that it was pleasant and profitable
convention and cannot fail to be pro-
ductive of beneficial results.

THE WAY OUT.

From the Leavenworth Times.
The ate Justice Miller, OF the supreme
court of the United States, once said to
the editor of The Times:
The people of the county of Leavenworth
havnt moral integrity enough to hold
their officials to a just accountability.
This was the estimate made of Leaven-
worth by one of the ablest jurists that
ever occupied a seat upon the supreme
bench.
Judge Miller sat upon the bench here
when the suits for the collection of our
city and county bonds were being tried
before him. lie saw the profiigacv and
incompetenCy of the Democratic officials
who managed our city an II county af-
fairs He saw the result and, filled with
disgust at the plunderers and the people
who permitted the continued robbing.
after the compromising of the debt lac
proclaimed his opinion in the language
above quoted.
Where are we today, financially:
The city and count two millions of
dollars in debt with to per cent. per
annum taxes 10 pay.
Business paralyzed. Empty houses.
Hundreds of unemployed men standing
around the corners of our streets with no
work, no money 10 pay mortgages or
grocery or taxes.
What are they going to do? Continue
10 vote the Democratic ticket:
No!
They will bolt that rotten party which
has run US in debt this enormous sum.
They will bolt that party which has. as
its only plank in its platform, whisky"
and with that CRY have, for the past
eight years. elected city and county Off
cials only TO fleece the people.
1t Is for the wise men of Leavenworth
10 show us a way out Of our difficulties
The Times sees only one way.
The Democratic party - dead. II Is
no longer factor in state policticS.
Every vote given to that party at the
late election was thrown away. No
Democratic vote given at that election
was counted
Every Democratic vote was valueleSs.
The way out Is to organize. Organize

LET Us FIGURE A LITTLE.

The hObby-bosses at Topeka have an
nounced that Resubmission was COM
! pletely showed under in the late cleo
ton. Let's see. Was it in the vote of
Kellogg and Ives? Ives seems to have
been elected by unnumbered thousands
of majority. Was it in the reelection of
Humphrey: Humphrey has about ia
900 votes, Willis about 107, 900 votes and
Robinson about $1,000 votes. All the
Democrats who voted for Willis are
solid for resubmissiOn, as are a greater
or less per cent. of the Republicans who
voted for him. They were simply Al
lance TO the exclusion of every other
party and every other question. The en-
tire vote of Robinson was undeniably for
Resubmission. Mr.. RObinson's vote
added to only fifty per cent. of the Will
hts vote more than balances Humph-
rey'S vote, while Humphrey received the
vote of many Republican Resubmis-
sionist who didn't like the idea of taking
any chances Of turning the state over to
a Democratic executive. Take the Rob

Willis received alone, and Humphreys
vote is equalled. In other words the
Republican party might give up the
Alliance or the MISUNDERSTANDING
cans who went off with Robinson, but
nobody outside of the Central committee
and the Capital. would be foolish enough
to intimate that the party could give up
both of these contingents and win.

ment. After Rumsey's successful exper'
Iment at Sheperdston, he went TO Liver
pool, England, hoping TO interest capital
ISIS, and thereby be able to engage skilled
workmen 10 perfect his designs. and had
50 FAR succeeded that a DO It OF about lOt
tons burthen was under course of con
Structlon and very near completion,
when he consented, at the suggestion OF
some gentlemen, to give public exposl-
ton OF his project IA order to further en-
list patronage and the interest OF the pub
lie. The evening came. and the audi
! ence assembled to hear RumSey combln-
ed the intelligence, wealth and beauty OF
Liverpool. He was poor, uneducated,
and this unlocked for interest over
/ whelmed him. He arose to begin his
| lecture, and a gentleman noticing his con-
| fused and agitat manner, handed him
glass of water; he murmered Inco-
herent thanks, threw his hand to his
head, and sank back in his chair, strick-
en- with ap)plexy." The boat he had con-
structed was set in motion, after his
death, on the Thames river, IN 1856. On
February 8, 1889, Congressman Rumsey,
of Kentucky, offered the following reso-
luton before the house of representa-
tives, which unanimously passed: Re
solved by the senate and house of repre-
sentatives, ETC., that the president be

James Rumsey, Jr., the son and only
surviving child of James Rumsey, de-
ceased, a suitable gold medal, comment

agency in giving to the world the bene-
fit of the steamboat" John Fitch, who
was also interested in steamboat build
ing, was a contemporary of Rumseys,
and an extract from his journal breaths
hopelessness that is pitiful; he says:
The day will come when some more
powerful man will get fame and riches
from my invention, but nobody will be-
lieve that poor John Fitch can do any
thing worthy of attention" As early
as 1893 both Fitch and Rumsey had ex-
hibited models to General Washington.
Rumsey had also obtained patents of the
British government for steam naviga-
ton. In letter to Hugh Williamson,
VI. c., dated Mt Vernon, March 10, 1873,
Washington commends Rumse'y boat
for its utility. One more historical fact
and l have done. Fulton obtained
his ideas of the steamboat
from Rumsev, by whom he was EN-
ployed as draughtsman, but even with
this advantage the chances are that
Gulton would have failed had he not
been befriended by Chancellor Living
stone, who is said to have had better
mechanical ideas than Fulton, and whose
wealth and influences aided largely in
bringing the practical uses of the steam
boat to the cons Iteration of the pubic.
Apropos of all this: by reference to the
Age of Steam it will be seen that steam
was applied to the propelling of a boat
at Alexandria, Egypt, nearly 300 years
before Christ, and by other men before
the Christian era, but was not made
practicable. Mrs. LIZZIE BELLER,

COME OFF THE ROOsT

There must be no mistaken hope held
out that the Republican party will erase
its prohibition plank and insert resnb
mission to reclaim those who voted with
the Democracy last Tuesday.-Capital.
Who Is this man Hudson with all his
devious political record, that thus as
sumes the responsibility of summary
dismissing SO large an element from the
ranks and counsels of the Republican
party of Kansas? The Resubmissionists
nor the Alliance are not asking the Re
publican party to hold out any mistaken,
or other kind, of hopes, but they are de
handing action, and unless such action
is satisfactory and prompt, the little,
crooked, cranky crew of Kansas political
dictators will never be heard Of af ter an
other election or two.
Now, the EAGLE is not the mouthpiece
of the Republican party, nor of the Re-
submissionists, nor of the Alliance, but
it has more readers than the Capital or
than any other daily published in Kan
sas, and twice as many readers who are
not politicians and office seekers, and we
take the responsibility of the suggestion
that the best thing that can possibly hap
pen to the Republican party of Kansas,
today, would be for Barney and Joe, and
Billy and Dick and Ben, to "come off
the roost" or keep more quiet.
The Republican party of Kansas, Mr..
Capital, WILL resubmit, when 1t will be
left to the people to say whether prohibit
ton shall be erased or not.

The Dead Party.
-cn the Leavenworth Times

From the Leavenworth Times
The Democratic party is no longer a
factor in Kansas politics. The total vote
for Robinson Is only about 10000. This
includes not only the Democratic vote Of
the state but the resubmission Republi-
can vote. Both the resubmissionists and
the Democrats claimed that the resub-
mission vote would amount 70 5000
Put il at -. 900 and we have a Demo
cratic vote Of only 1000. In 1856. the
last off year. the Democrats had vote II
more than 1900. In 1855 il fell 70 103.-
900 and now 10 10000, a good deal Jess
than half what II was four years ago.

Some Rough Figuring.

From the Leaveaworth Times
In 1883 the vote stood: Blaine, 1s2 934;
Cleveland, l03, IA and Streeter 81, 726;
total 324, 404. There is now a total vote
of about 100000, a falling off Of $1,000
in round numbers. Dividing this loss in
proportion TO the vote of two years ago
it gives falling off from the Republi-
can vote of $1,000, of the Democratic
vote of 200 and Of the Union Labor
vote of 5000. This would indicate that
the Alliance vote estimated at $4,000 Ia
composed of Al 600 Republicans, $4,000
Union LabOrites and 2j.OO0 Democrats.

The Part of Wisdom.
From the Lawrence journal.

A great many Republican papers say
that had the sc-called force bill' been
passed the result would have been diff
ferent. The reports show that there
were fewer frauds perpetrated this time
than at any election for several years.
Take the medicine straight. boys. and do
not fail to learn the lesson taught by the
result. 1t is the part of wisdom TO keep
quiet and profit by the result.
