Brady, of the Salina Republican, seems
to be ratified To parry the effect of the
strong resubmission sentiment of that
community, which he has been trying
these weeks and months to make the
readers of his Republican believe did not
exist, he springs a sensation on them in
the shape of cat suicide, the result, he
says, of the deep grief of the suicide vic
tim at the loss of its feline companion.
1t is devoutly hoped that is not given
out as premonition of what may take
place with the esteemed in consequence
of his disappointment at the way the
prohibition cat has jumped in Salina
Don't do it, Brady; you may be happy

THE ROSCOE CoNKLING OF KANSAS
To the Editor of the Eagle.

To the Editor of the Eagle.
In this mornings issue you character
ize Judge Sluss as the Roscoe Conkling
of Kansas" To this please allow me to
say, with all my heart, amen? When
that distinguished man had been seized
with the fatal malady which ended his
life, and before his death, a California
paper, in an article on his life and char
acter after the very highest estimate of
him as an orator and statesmen, pays
this tribute to his integrity: There is
no marble white enough to go above his
grave and bear the evidence of this-the
GROWING virtue of his life" This esti-
mate of ConkIing is now generally
accepted.
Judge Sluss will never achieve any
higher distinction.

General McCook says there is no card
playing for money at Fort Leavenworth;
that he has thoroughly and completely
broken up the practice among the officers
and men by creating among them a SEN
timent that frowns down upon such
practices as disreputable and beneath
the dignity of men. The General is to
be congratulated upon the reformatory
effects of his personal influence.

great favorite with the Mexicans, by
whom he is known as Antonio Jose.

being simply its English translation
This translation of names is very COM
mon down in New Mexico. There are
only three counties in the territory where
the given name of an American voter is
not translated into Spanish on the regis
traUion lists. And, by the way, down
there you do not vote the Democratic or
Republican ticket, but the "Boleta Dem
ocratica' or ''Boleta Republica" as the
case may be, and it is cast for Delegate

when it gets into the Union.

Practical Advice.

From the Merchant Traveller.
BE shrewd and selfish as you can:
You'll not be poor,
BE nothing unto any man.
And close your door
To those who call on you for aid;
Turn them away
They are no good-their play is played
They've had their day
Get all you can, and all you get
Secur- ly keep;
And when at last you die, you bet,
No one will weep

WESTERN KANSAS A STOCK COUN-
TRY.

From the Ashland Journal.
There will be much said 10 the detri-
ment of Kansas over the failure to raise
a crop of corn this year. The hardest
things will be said by those fellows over
the line east where they. too, have suf-
fered with the dry weather. Western
Kansas particularly is a stock country
more essentially than an agricultural
region. and its use for that purpose will
yield the surest and quickest returns to
the farmer. Wheat, rye and oats can
nearly always be- raised success
fully, the two former making
excellent winter pasturage for stock.
yielding largely in grain and afTOrdIng
plenty of straw for winter shelter. Corn
is an uncertain crop and ought not. and
we think, after this year, will not be de-
pended upon as staple crop. 1t IL well
enough, perhaps, to cultivate a field that
viii yield enough for home if it meets
favorable season. but 70 attempt to make
it the main crop shows poor judgment on
the part of the farmer. Wheat Is easier
to handle and bushel Of 1t IS worth
more than two of corn. Other crops will
furnish plenty Of feed for stock and those
who have surplus wheat had best invest
ii in cattle and get start on the big and
sure road 10 success.

If the sentiment of the people of Kan
sas as a whole upon the resubmission
question may be estimated by the ex-
pressions as far as obtained here and
there in the various counties, it may be
set down as overwhelmingly in favor of
the proposition. Evidently somebody is
going to be overwhelmingly astonished
at the sequel to this question.
