Future of western Kansas.

The person who does not see great
future for western Kansas has a
meagerly extended vision of poorly
developed reasoning faculties The
''back-set'' which befell this part of
the country is soon to be retrived
The country has had setting back"
in its agricultural progress. It is the
wild, inflated boom which has taken
back seat. From this time forward
the country will develope from its
own resources.
We draw some information from
the philosophy of events to prove
what we comprehend to be the out
come of this portion of the heritage
from Uncle Sam.
Great events produce great effects.
The logic of cause and effect is great
ly observable in a local application.
The farmers of western Kansas feel
the force of the irrisistable logic of
events. The war of the rebellion
produced havoc and disaster, IN the
loss of millions of lives and property
but 1t developed the character of the
people of the country. Many fortunes
were wrecked, but many fortunes were
made. Many lives were lost, but
many men attained distinction, and
the country to-day sustains stronger
position before the world. The re-
sources of the country are develop
ing, in both north and south, and
notably in the south.
Commissions of nature leave great
monuments to attest the power of the
infinite ruler that holds the destinies
Can we not apply the philosophy Of
the forces of nature to the conduct o.
man. He must follow natures cours,
to win.
He can rear no grand mountains
fnor can he cause great rivers to flow
But the man of the times takes ad
vantage of the situation.
Against the solemn protestatlon
of nature. man. planted corn in tn
face of hot winds. He sowed to tn
winds and Feaped the whirlwinds
All Rew countries are wheat or graf
producing.
This is beganing to be understoo
here. They may be partial failure

bad planting as from the elements;
but success comes from patience, toll
and perseverance.
To turn misfortune into account is
a part of wisdom. Everybody has
planted wheat, and the most of the
grain Is in excellent condition.
Every available piece of ground
which had ever been plowed on the
homestead or abandoned land has
been put to wheat.
The wheat seed has been planted
in all kinds of ways with all sorts of
machinery.
If it doesn't turn out we'll it will
not be the fault of the weather. It
will make a crop whether much or
little.
Great grain crops; immense ele-
vators; makets west and south. This
is the future of eastern Colorado and
Western Kansas.-NetU West Echo.

PERFECTLY PRACTICABLE.

Nothing QuixoIic i'm the Canal Schemes
Under Copsideration Just Now-some
Views of n Man Who Has Gone Over
the Ground.
Mr.. c. Kimberland doesn't call himself
an engineer, but he has gone over the
ground and has had large experience, and
has also considerable knowledge of naviga-
ton, and he says that not only is the Ohio
river and Lake Erie canal practicable, but
that it is also feasible to make connection
with the Potomac. Furthermore, Mr.. Kim
berland calls attention to what many people
have overlooked, viz: Not only is it very ex-
pensive TO add tracks in the mountains to ex-
listing railways. so as to accommodate the ever
growing freight demand, but there are many
in sight: Suppose the Pittsburg, Cincinnati
and ST. Louis road found it
necessary to add another track along
the side of Mt. Washington. 1t would be
cost of which would exhaust the late surplus in
the United STATES Treasury, and then there
wouldn't be any well-defned certainty that the
entire hill wouldn't slip and carry the railway
down into Limerick and Sligo. There are
many miles of such environment between
Pittsburg and the Atlantic, and If the trouble
indicated Is to be avoided 1t will cost just as
much to two-track, to say nothing of four
track. tunnels and the freight business ot the
United States will, in the course of Is years,
require four-track roads from here to the East.
The Pittsburg and lake Erie Railway finds its
track entirely inadequate for its business, and
an experienced railway man says the company
cannot complete the second track short of
three years.
This is a weighty consideration, and every
man knows as well as Mr.. Kim berland that the
case is not overstated. As Engineer Arras says,
water carriage by means of canals will soon be
a greater necessity, if the country is not to
a IA w N
fore railways were thought of, as cost of car
riage is becoming the maiE factor in business,
to say nothing OF the inability to handle the
country's trade on rails.

CHURCH AND REPUBLIC.
Then the United Maennerchorn sang 'sThe
Heavens Praise" whereupon Monsignor DR..
Schroeder, of the University, at Washington,
d, c., was introduced as the orator upon the
subject: 1.-THE Church and the Republic"
"Honored assembly" he said. ''you all know
that it is not seldom we hear in this country
that our church G,aigl is against the Coy
country A good many accuse US of being too
orthodox in our religion to be good Americans.
OF course we all know that whoever says that
the ethics of our religion forbid us to be in
mistaken, and whoever says SO does us an in

church and compare it with that of the Gov

immediate purpose in view. Both mean to
benefit mankind In that they are alike. But
to accomplish this object they use different
means. There they are not alike, but they do
not contradict in that.
allow does or church and the American
Republic get along together? Somebody asked
me sometime ago what thought of the Ameri-
can form of Government. think it is the
best Government in the world replied (great
applause), and when l said that 1 meant ex-
actly what said, because l think 1t is just the
form of Government that suits the citizens of
this country. But is not that against your
Catholic faith? was asked. No. 1 say: our re-
ligion teaches us to obey the law. and hence
my obligations to the Church can never clash
with those to my country. But then were you
not born in Germany was another question.
Yes, l said; but what of that? l love Germany
as my mother and America as my bride; what
more do you want?
NOT AN ENEMY.
"But it is also asked, How can we be good
Americans and obey the Poper The Pope is
no enemy of this country. He has never de-
sired to usurp this land. He has never ex-
pressed desire of being the ruler here. and If
he did. we would all say Hands off, 1t is not
his Office, and no Pope has ever had any otter
wish but to be the head of the Church and not
the ruler of the State.
'Now we see that all this proves that Cath
olic and even a German Catholic can be good
American citizen. and all say to our enemies
is, Don't be afraid of us, and be sure we will
not be afraid of you.'
The Rev. NJ. Heiner then spoke on the

Rev. Maurice Koeder. o. s. b.. who delivered
GLOWING eulogy on the Beauties OF the Cath
