The Race Not Degenerating.


From the Atchison Champion.
Only few days ago a man in New
York who, for nearly quarter century,
had borne good reputation, was discov-
cred to be forger to the tune of $3.50,
600. The whole world heard of it the
next day. While this unfortunate S
crime was thus spread out broadcast
everywhere, man in Chicago re-
ceived from his errand boy a
satchel which the latter had picked
up in the street. Opening it he found
that it contained SS7 900 in cur
rency, with the owners name within
on the inside of the satchel. What did
he do with that money: Keep it: No,
he at once carried it to the owner and
surrendered it: and this, too, in Chicago,
not supposed to be the most moral city
III this country.
This Chicago mans honesty refutes
the pessimistic view of human nature,
and shines out upon so much that is dark
in this world like the steady CLEAN of a
star on a mOOnless night

THE EAGLE AND THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY.

To the Editor OF the Eagle:
These are DAYS when we hear much
criticism of mems Republicanism. Men
who have raised their voices against the
faults and errors of the Republican party
are subject TO much censure. and their
motives and purposes misunderstood and
misrepresented, and it requires true
courage TO stand firm in the demand for
needed reforms. Fear of censure should
deter no man from an honest expression
of sentiment in reference To public
affairs. Public opinion rules the
world Public opinion will sustain
those who fight the battle of the people
against selfish and unjust legis-
lation, and the EAGLE can depend
on the support of the people who have
too selfish interests 10 tie them TO selfish
leaders The deepest forces are the
stllest.' How noisele is thought"
ii the under current of thought of fair
minded, honest men in the Republican
party today could all find expression it
would amaze the party leaders and office
holders who are actuated by selfish mo-
tives and not by true Republican princi-
ftoS' anu 1iit4t loSdiu Aul NuSiliStlNeS
alone would. in consequence of this re-
velatlon, lead 10 a speedy reform as de-
msnded by the people.
Where public opinion is right papers
actuated by true Republican principles
should fearlessly sustain il, and where
public opinion is wrong such papers
should educate and enlighten il.
As things are going we are offering the
Democratic party wonderful opportuni-
ties. ANY relief which might be afforded
by the cce>s Of the Democratic party
would only he temporary. The Repuhll-
can party should prove equal 70 the &C.

Whatever the quality or quantity or
both of his acumen, Parnell will proceed
TO not retire-that is his decision. 1t is
hut another illustration of the vanity of
human nature. Once a man tastes of the

he voluntarily lets go. And we don't

such cases, even TODAY.

Inedeotiye Drugs.

''It Is great pity that physicians sc
rarely keep their own supplies of staple
drugs" remarked venerable disciple OF
Hippocrates. "Some country physicians
do, but in the city the practice is fast
dying out. Yet the great majority OF
the vegetable extracts on the shelves OF
apothecaries' shops are unreliable in
their quality. The herbs used are not
collected at the right season of the year,
and are not properly cured, the strength
varying according to the differences of
the soil and climate where the plants
grow.
Vegetable remedies are easily adul-
terated, and they are usually prepared
by men who lack the knowledge re-
quired for proper selection, manipula-
tion and manufacture. Light, heat and
atmosphere all bring about chemical
changes, and in the course of time the
druggists preparations, even if originally
good, become inert and worthless Let
the pharmacist be ever SO capable, he
cannot PROFOUND good prescription il
he uses worthless crude drugs.
"The druggist and pharmacist make
their preparations to sell, while the ply
sician who makes his own medicines ex-
ercises the care required to produce the
proper effects. 1t is to the impurity and
inertness Of the materials furnished for
prescriptions that much of the disap-
pointment of physicians in the results OF
the treatment is attributable. Fall
