t SHOULD BE SATISFIED.

The suit of Juror Culver against the
Chicago Herald for damages on account
of the publication in its columns of state
ments that placed him in compromis-
ing light in connection with the Cronin
trial, has not had the effect of stopping
the discussion of that theme by the press
of that city; on the contrary that or
something else seems to have given the
discussion fresh impetus.
AS to the guilt or innocence of the
men now under sentence it must be adj
mitted that the evidence tells strongly
against them, but in spite of the efforts
put forth the manner of DR.. Cronin s
taking off and the names of the men who
were present at his death, yet remains a
mystery. In the light of the testimony,
it would seem that the Chicago press
should be satisfied with the rigor of the
sentence, and should permit revenge to
give way to justice for time. There
may be others more guilty than any yet
discovered. and if there are they will I'M
doubtedly some day feel the stroke of
the leaden hand swifter than they antic-
ipated. Meanwhile the press of that city
can well afford to let the matter rest for
a time at least, else they may create
sentiment Of sympathy upon the idea of
persecution.

HOLD YOUR CATTLE.

Rocky Mountain Husbandman.
The question which arises in the minds
of our cattle growers frequently. and
which is often propounded to us is:
What shall they do? Shall they dispose
of their herds and try sheep or horses, or
stick to cattle! Much of course depends
how one is situated. Where the advan-
tages are equal we would advise against
the change at this date, for the reason
that cattle are low and sheep are high.
In a careful study of the stock industry
for a quarter of a century we have
found it invariably the best rule to sell
out Of any branch of the business when
that class rules high and buy into an
other when it Is low. This is anyhow
the way to take advantage Of the fluc-
tuations of the market, but it is con-
trary to the rule followed by the masses.
Cattle are low, very low, but we believe
that on the present basis of prices they
will prove paying investment.
Wool growing has evidently paid
more steadily than the pro-
duction of beef. and may continue
to do SO, and we do not propose to say
that cattle growing is the best to stay by,
but we do say that this is q bad time to
sell cattle. The time to change from one
industry to another is when the industry
you wish to quit is on top and the one
you wish to enter is at low ebb. There
are, to be sure, some conditions which
are positively in favor of wool growing,
but low as cattle are, we think the small
beginner can do better with cattle than
with sheep. Success in cattle may be.
in event of an emergency, compelled by
resortsng to dairying, while it is possible
that the sheep investment may be re-
duced to merely interest on the capital,
which will not satisfy the man of small
means. while the capitaliit would grow
rich from it. Anyhow, if we had cattle
now we would not be in hurry to dis
pose Of them, euen though the profits in
wool growing are at this writing decid-
eddy the most encouraging.

THE TOTAL ECLIPSE.

Many persons can not understand why
the United States government should
appropriate large sums of money to fit
out an expedition for southern Africa to
observe .be total eclipse Of the sun. A
detailed explanation of the reasons why
would require too much space, but a
suggestion may give general reason.
Astronomy furnishes the rule by which
all weights and measures are kept uni
form. How could the yard stick be kept
of uniform length, except by having
some rule, governed by an immutable
law Of nature, and where could we find
constant guide except in the move
ments of the heavenly bodies? Naviga-
ton of the oceans depends largely on
astronomical calculations, and every dis
covery is an additional aid in making
these calculations. Every yard of cal
leo, every bushel Of corn, are measured,
and every bearing at sea taken, by rules
that have their origin in astronomical
calculations, and we can not know too
much of astronomical subjects.

THE CONSPIRACY AGAINST PARNELL

Mr.. Parnell declares that the divorce
suit brought by Captain O'Shea, with
which his name is connected as corre-
spondent, is part Of political conspiracy
to break him down. He charges that
Secretary Houston, of the Royal Union,
who figured before the special commits
sion as the hacker of the perjurer Bigott,
is now the hacker of the captain.
No public man in recent years has
been subjected to such bitter and I'M
scrupulous attacks as Mr.. Parnell. He
has been arrested and thrown into
prison in defiance Of the law; that not
serving the purpose, laws have been
made for his especial benefit. He has
been accused of participation in the vilest
plots against the government, and forged
documents produced TO substantiate the
charges. All these conspiracies failed,
and Mr.. Parnell came out of them not
only unscathed, but strengthened by the
exposure of his enemies schemes.
Pigott having been exposed, and COM
mitted suicide, Captain O'Shea has APP
parently been selected as the man to
carry on the work of running Parnell.
The captain, morally. is described as a
fit successor to such a man as Pigott,
and he has just about as much ground
for complaint against Parnell as Pigott
had. The present inquiry may throw
some unpleasant light on Mr.. Parnelrs
private life, but there is little likelihood
that it will cripple in any way his
strength as a leader.

THE BRAZILIAN REPUBLIC,

From the St. Joe Gazette.
Every movement Of the provisional
government of Brazil is severely frown-
ed upon by the European monarchies.
1t is true they are quite right in not
recognizing the Brazilian republic, for
the latter is not yet permanently estab-
hshed, but their measures go far beyond
that legitimate act. Brazilian finance is
in the hands of Europe and it is used as
potent lever for entangling the most
important affairs of Brazil. False news
is freely circulated in order that the peo-
pie may be prejudiced against the pro-
visional government and the essay at a
republic. Germany is especially active,
and is endeavoring to foment discord IN
the southern states of Brazil. where
many Germans are located, in order that
they may secede and set up a separate
government. under the protectorate of
Germany. England Interferes IN the
commercial regulations of Brazil at
every opportunity, ann Spain and Portu-
gal would do the same If they felt them
selves strong enough.
The United States will see to it that
the new republic Is not interfered with
by the disgruntled great people over on
the other side. With reference TO the
American states, "hands off, was the or
der issued by Uncle Sam to these gentle
men long while ago. and should their
interference with Brazil, even though il
stops short of actual force, threaten to
prove decisive, way will be found TO
call attention to this order. The Louis
vile Courier Journal fairly defines the
American view of the situation as fol-
lows: If this is to be made q general
issue between monarchy and democracy
Brazil shall have fair play. The whole
world is watching her experiment with
the deepest interest and we of the Unit
ed States sincerely hope that the provis-
ionai government viii quickly and quiet
ly be succeeded by constitutional re-
public fitted to elevate Brazil 10 the rank
among nations 10 which her extent of
territory and variety OF products entitle

The delegation of Sioux chiefs which
has been visiting the Carlisle, Pa, and
the Hampton, Va, Indian schools is very
strong in its denunciation of these insti-
tutions. The Lawrence Journal thinks
this comes at 4 time most unfortunate
for Indian Commissioner Morgan, whose
official position is by no means securely
within his grasp. What with the charges
made by the Catholic bureau and the
protest from his very words. MFR. Morgan
has an embarrassing deal of explaining
to do, remarks the Journal So it seems:
and yet may it not be that in both the
condemnation and charges are to be
found strong argument in the commits
sioner's favor? Are those untutored
chiefs competent critics? And it be a
fact, also, that the Indian schools are not
supposed to be run in the interest of any
sect or creed. Mr.. Morgan may not be
the ti;tingest man for the position he oc-
cupies, but TO our mind there is nothing
in the foregoing to Indicate his unfitness.

Justice Brewers Punch.


From the Chicago Herald.
Justice Brewer may or may not be a
corporation man, but if he has any milk
of human kindness in him he must bless
the fate that takes him away from the
state of Kansas for the remainder of his
natural life, or during good behavior.
Probably In no other state in the union
could such a fanatical demonstration as
that which marred the banquet given in
Justice Brewers honor at Leavenworth
have occurred. A threat by the police
to arrest such banqueting party if
liquor Of any sort appeared on the board
was not the result of desire to enforce
the law, for whisky is openly or sneak
ingly sold and consumed all over Kansas,
but it was due to motives of revenge on
the part of miscellaneous assortment
of fanatics and villains who cherished ill
will toward the new magistrate on &C.
count of an anti-prohibition decision pre-
viously rendered by him.
A society in which such misuse of
power can occur is no better off than that
of Opelika. Yazoo or the shoe-string dis
trict. In extending the compliments of
the season to Justice Brewer the Herald
begs to express the hope that as a men,
Der of the United States supreme court
he will have occasion to hit these bigots
and pharisees again.
Wichita eagle., 1890-01-04

1t has been pet idea with a certain
class of politicians of both the great par
ties, that ordinary farmers are not
just the kind of. timber that makes the
best legislators. This principle has come
into such general practice that farmer
members of legislatures are the excep-
ton and not the rule. 1t is evident that
great change in this respect is immi-
nent. This increased political activity
of farmers everywhere will inevitably
result in a phenomenal attendance of
farmers at the caucuses of the respective
parties this year and the nomination and
election of an unusual number of farmer
candidates.
