anybody. but when you hear the harsh
things which Governor Gear. young Mr..
Dolliver. the amiable Mr.. Conger, and
other members of the Iowa delegation
say of Mr.. Blaine's interference you may
catch the echo of the suaye senator,
for the whole Iowa delegation draws
its inspiration from that experienced
statesman. Senator Allison Is for
free sugar because he Is convinced
that ii means cheap sugar He
looks upon the talk of market in Cuba
or Brazil for American breadstuffs as
humbug, and insists that the only effect
of reciprocity on the sugar line would be
to keep up the price of sugar without in
creasing the price of farm products.
But if there Is to be reciprocity Senator
Allison thinks 1t Supremacy ridiculous 10
enter into jug-handled arrangement
when the only thing in the jug Is sweet
ened water. He holds that cheap cloth
ing is OF as much account as cheap food
and he does not see the value of an
arrangement which viii let in sugar in
return for an imaginary market and shut
out wool on the same conditions. This
is a gentle thrust at Blaine. who has con-
sented TO leave wool out of this arrange
ment at the request of the president.
But Senator Allison would go further
than sugar and wool and enlarge the list
of non-dutiable products all along the
line. He wants genuine reciprocity or
else the protective system left intact.
And Senator Aldrich in drawing his
amendment has put good deal of the
Allison idea into it,

A JUST TRIBUTE TO KANSAS.
New YORK. August y. 1890

New YORK, August y, 1890.
To the Editor Of the Eagle.
| am pleased to notice that Kansas
stands in the front ranks in the battle
for industrial freedom, and that its
worthy senator, 2. B. Plumb, has the
courage to voice the sentiments of the
people in opposition to unjust taxation.
May the people and the press give him
the encouragement and support that he
merits
1t is interesting to note that the bold
est Republican protests against the Nc
kinley tariff bill comes from Kansas,
the state which gave birth TO the free
soil party amid bIoOdshed and flames to
check the spread of slavery. 1t Is not 10
be wondered at that she should now lead
in the new crusade for the freedom of
siXty-fve millions of people from I'm iUst
taxation, and that her foremost repre-
sentatives should be advocating a fair
consideration of the interests Of the peo-
pie. Surely the leaders of the Repub-
Iican party must hearken TO these warn
ingS.
Kansas Is a wonderful state and con-
taius wonderful people. One thing
seems certain: kansas Will never
fold her hands and say. a little
more sleep. a little more slumber. +"
She Is supposed to be ever up and doing
She appreciates praise but won d prefer
abuse to not being noticed at all. | no.
tice that in the daily papers Kansas IL
referred to oftener than any other state
in the union. Such q state, such peo-
pie, must and viii prosper. The soil Of
Kansas was dedicated TO freedom bv sac
Tiiice and noble efforts OF men 10 whom
mercenary and selfish motives were IN
6nown-men who loved truth and COM
mon justice and who Tisked their all for
their advancement. The cause OF free
dom. truth and justice viii ever thrive
and prosper on the soil Of Kansas.

1t is said that a rose by any other name
would smell as sweet. Several Of the
leading Republican papers of Kansas
that jumped on the EAGLES back be-
cause it dared proclaim the right of the
people to a rehearing ON the prohibtory
amendment to the state constitution, are
now racing to see which shall take the
lead in advocating a constitutional con-
vention. But it is all right; the EAGLE
knew it was only question of time
when popular sentiment would force
them into line on this question as it has
most of them on the tariff question. In
all this the EAGLES lead is endorsed
whether it is publicly recognized or not,
and that is enough for it.

FUN ALL AROUND.

Since the Dodge City convention lifted
itself over the fence of party restraints
10y the straps of its boots, so to speak, the
politics of the state has assumed a kind
of 90 as you please condition, and every
body seems to be taking advantage Of
the situation to have a sort of picnic of a
time. The Republicans Of LeavenwOrth
county held their convention Monday
and from the following sizing-up of it
from the Lawrence Journal it must have
been equal to a circus:
a funny kind Of convention was
held at Leavenworth yesterday. 1t was
called for the purpose of eleCtmg dele
gates to the congressional and state con-
ventionS. and while there were some
pretty little battles the convention seems
to have been harmonious as whole. ID.
Il. Anthony was elected to head the con-
gressiOnal delegation, which 10 doubt
means that a compromise was arrived at
with the understanding that he should
have full swing in the district if he
would keep his hands out of Governor
Humphreys hair. Anthony Is cute Old
fox. lie always has TWO things that he
is fighting for at the same time, and Is
always satisfied when he gets one or
them on compromise. And he gener-
ally does that. The delegates from the
country were in favor of prohibition.
while those from the city were for result
mission. They compromised 10y insert
ING a resolution calling for constitu-
tionaI convention. At the close of the
convention Colonel Anthony made a
speech in which he nominated Blaine for
the presidency in 1892. The Times re
marks editoriallv that 1T was a strange
and contradictory convention, and 1t
certainly was.

The Fort Scott Monitor takes issue with
the EAGLE on the question of port of
entry for Kansas, and declares that such
a proposition is nonsensical. but if it
should be done that Fort Scott Is the fit
tenest place for it. Certainly: that was
to be expected; in fact that Is one of the
the three or four exceptions we had in
mind and mentioned when we stated
what we did on the subject a day or two
ago. But the facts do not agree with
the esteemed. The only nunsensical
thing about the matter as far as the Mon
itor's mention of il Is concerned, Is what
the Monitor said.

From the most trustworthy sources of
information it is learned that the ex-
IRENE western tier Of counties Of the
state have been the most fortunate this
year in the matter of seasons and crops.
From Wallace county south to the strip
good rains have fallen through the sum
mer at proper intervals and crops We're
never better. This is indeed gratifying,
That section of the state has usually SUI
fered most from drouth heretofore and
as a result the people, many Of them,
have had a hard time of it. This years
abundant crops will bring that quarter
up in good shape and enable the good
people to move forward with the process

Toistoi's Opinion.

Thomas Stevens letter 20 the World
In the matter of land ownership TolstoI
Is 4 great admirer of the theories of
Henry George. He considers George the
greatest American citizen of the present
time. He believes. however. IN a system
of communal. rather than a national,
ownership of the land. The ideal state
Of society Is the simple, rural communeS,
in which every family would have the
right to till soil enough for its own sup
port. There would be no taxes and no
government. The count believes that all
forms of government are humbugs, and
that the whole machinery Of law and
lawyers, courts and judges. Is barbar-
ity, and an excuse for setting one man
above another, and enabling the privi-
lodged few to rob the many.
The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1890-08-21

The Kansas papers very heartily endorse
the course pursued by our congressman,
and yet every Kansas representative voted
for the Mckinley bill which number of
these papers now denounce as attempted
robbery. IN other words, the seven Kan
sas representatives are highly commended
for attempting to rob the people. Hoy Is
that for consistency?-Em RepublI-
can.
Your charge is bit too sweeping,
both as to the Kansas papers and the
delegation in congress. The EAGLE did
not fail to criticise the actions of the
Kansas members on the Mckinley bill at
the time and has never commended
them for it since. And one member of
the delegation maintained his position in
opposition to that measure to the last,
and nobody knows better than the Re-
publican how heartily the voters of the
Fourth district endorse their representa-
tive for his courageous stand on that I'M
pOrtaut measure.
