THE LATEST TRANSCONTINENTAL
RAILWAY PROJECT.

The prospectus for a transcontinental
railway project has been issued, and adj
vices have been received at the Santa Fe
railroad headquarters. The pamphlet
was formally given to the public June
10, though the same scheme was men
toned in the public prints several months
ago. The line is to be known as the Vir-
ginia, Missouri & Western, and to extend
from Norfolk, Va, to the Pacific coast.
According to the prospectus a prelimin-
airy survey has been made, indicating
that the entire project viii involve only
$40, 600, 900. The road is to be bonded
for $25, 900 per mile of double track, all
bonds to be secured by one blanket mort
gage. The company is incorporated I'M
der an act of the legislature of Tennessee,
and is expected to be completed within
three years. The signature of Thomas
Breers, the Nashville, Tenn, railway
contractor, appears at the conclusion Of
the pamphlet. 1t is asserted that the
scheme originates from one of the New
York roads, which desires a western ter
ritOry.

THE VISIT TO RUSSIA.

The people who live in this free coun-
| try and are accustomed to grumble about
the hardships to which they are subjected
ought to ponder occasionally over the
unhappy condition of the Bulgarian peo-
pie, subjected as they have been for
years to the contemplate plots of the
miserable car of the Russians.
Hated and despised by his own sub
! jects, the czar's whole life seems devoted
to sowing discomfort in the Balkans and
in determining to upset every govern
ment with which the people there may
be satisfied.
The conspiracy which has just been
| crushed in Sofia was an attempt on the
part of the Russians to upset the present
Bulgarian government, and that the
fact is not publicly proclaimed is simply
on account of the power of the car and
the fear of driving him to desperate
measures.
With the greatest patience the Bulga-
rians have fOiled every effort made by
their enemy, and the visit of the en-
peror Of Germany to the baffled car,
just at this juncture is, therefore, of
more than ordinary interest.
Can it be possible that he has deter
mined to surrender Bulgaria to the car,
to invite him to take possession
and to assure him that in case he does
SO, he has nothing to fear from Ger
many?
If this is the case, all of the toll and
trouble and all of the patriotic valor of
this gallant people viii have been ex-
pended to no purpose. 1t is an unpleas-
ant idea.

THE COST OF THE CENSUS.

From the Philadelphia Bulletin.
The natural citation felt over the in
crease in the population of the United
States is somewhat modified by the cost
of obtaining and prOmulgating the facts.
The statistics Of expense incurred in TAX
ing censuses since 1890 show not only
progressive increase, but pro rata aug
mentation, which If maintained in the
future will not only tend to make ignor-
ance bllssful, but wider knowledge folly
Of the most superlative character. 1t
should be remembered that it was a
Democratic congress which allowed
So, 0O0. 600. exclusive of the cost of print
ing, engraving and binding. to be ex-
pended in the work of gathering so much
varied information.
The population of the United States in
1890 amounted to 1929 PA, and the cost
of the census was S44.3I1. This repre-
sents a cost per capita Of lie. In 1880
the population amounted to so 155, 7S3,
and the cost of the census was s.. $50, $50
showing a cost per capita OF 11.6Sc, or
more than ten times the cost per capita
OF the census of 1890. The statistics
which We're compiled for the Use of con-
gresS. which authorized the present in
crease in cost, may be tabulated as fol
lows, showing an increased per capita

The Wichita EAGLE a few days ago gave
Senator tvarts a string of taffy over his
soundness on the silver Qestion. Since the
senator reniggered and voted with Wall
street the EAGLE ought 10 take back its
sorghum.-Fort Scott Monitor.
Men are Judged by their speech until
they act. The EAGLE did endorse Mr.
Evarts' expressions on the silver question
because, as it understands t.thev had the
ring of the true metal, and it was bur a
reasonable inference that he meant what
he said. That he did not, as it seems. Is
his misfortune IF 1t may be so mildly
stated and not the EAGLES fault: il did
what 1t could to encourage him to stick
10 1t. We are frank that his declarations
that we commended were more a sur
prise to US than was his later action
this In view of his location and associa-
tions. IL this isn't enough TO satisfy of
the jealous confrere Wen cali for the
residQum.

The Emcacy of PRAYER.

The narrative of Henry 3L Stanley :
adventures IN the dark continent. Is ex-
Jraortiinary IN many WAYS and intensely
interesting altogether. Stanley refers
again and again to the supernatural

desolate land he says that he feels utter

THE WHEAT QUESTION CONSIDERED

From the Liverpool Corn News, June 3.
"a letter from Mr.. Pillsbury, the flour
manufacturer of the northwest, in yes
terday's issue described the condition of
American crops. Though couched in a
somewhat hyperbolical vein, it raises the
thought, not of what Europe would do
without an American surplus, but of
how we shall be able to balance supply
and demand, saying America next season
should export 50,000.000 bushels less
than she has done this season, say only
81, 900, 900 bushels instead of 1900, 900
bushels. Europe i'll the Jubilee year.

WHEAT.

In some sections, especially in north
western and West-central Kansas. the
wheat is in bad condition. in many in
stances practically lost. and a consider
| able area will be plowed up; and through
out the state generally the crop has been
| checked in its growth by insufficient
rainfall and Unseasonably cold weather
| during the past month.
| In Butler, Coffey and Cowley counties
| wheat is reported seriously damaged by
| frost. In Cherokee, Cnautauqua and
| Montgomery counties considerable chess
has developed in the wheat fields. Gen
| orally throughout the state the wheat
plant failed to get the requisite amount
| of rainfall at the proper time to promote
/ stOOling. In consequence wheat does
not cover the ground so thickIy as it
otherwise would, and the yield will be
shortened
Notwithstanding this, thirty counties
report condition of wheat at 80 per cent
and over. Eleven of these counties are
west of the ninety-ninth meridian, in the
southwest portion of the state, where an
unusual amount of rain fell. Harvest

usual. The condition of wheat for the

CORN.
The acres planted to corn in the spring
of 1890 is, according 10 reports of our
correspondents. one-half OF | per cent.
less than that planted the previous year,
which makes the total corn area of Kan
sas this year 6,793, 227 acres, against
s $50. 693 acres for last year.
OF this area, per cent Is reported as
having failed To grow. While corn Is
generally a good stand, it has been very
much retarded in It's growth by cold
weather through May, and in many
places by drouth; but the plant now is
healthy. and with rains and warm
weather is growing rapidly.
OATS.
By reason Of cold weather and INSULT
Gent rainfall in the early spring. oats for
the most part in the state Is quite short
and unprOmising. In some localities the
crop has already been plowed up, while
condition generally indicates a yield
much below the average.

Yes, and the original package decision
gives US h-L-Abilene Reflection.
Our esteemed cotemporary evidently
uttered the foregoing without due con-
sideration, hence it cast something Of a
reflection on its wanted good judgment.
1t is true that intoxicants are justly de-
nominated liquid damnation, and that
may form something of basis for the
declaration quoted. But it does not
necessarily or unavoidably follow that
the decision will produce the condition
suggested. 1t will not, if the local and
civil authorities are watchful and do
their duty. Under the original package
decision the sale Of liquors cannot be
prevented, but the decision or the laws
OF the constitution do not take from
the civil authorities their police powers,
and for maintaining a disorderly place,
or for intoxication, or for a number of
other Offenses the offenders may be ar
raigned and punished according to the
laws and ordinances for such cases made
and provided. So that the social cOndi-
ton in respect to the point raised still
rests with the people of the locality and
their officers regardless Of the decisions.
