Some of our exchanges are off as to
the position of the EAGLE. We are for
the protection of American interests.
What the EAGLE objects to is the taxing
of the producing states in the interests
of the manufacturing states. Even the
manufacturing states cannot prosper
long under any system Of protection,
however high, if the producing states,
which are the consumers-are bank
rupted. The farmer can stand a good
deal, because in a sense he is independ-
ent, or seIf-supporting, but he can't stand
long after his means Of self-support have
been hopelessly sunk under mortgage.

HARRISON AND PROTECTION.

CARTHAGE, No, July 6.
Editor of Wichita Eagle.
Your issue of July published from
Kansas City Times specials, the follow
ing statement from Senator Plumb: Il
am myself entirely persuaded that the
western people are not to be benefited by
an indiscriminate increase Of the duties
on imported merchandise, and espeCI-
ally ON those things which 90 into uni
versal consumption. I'm this matter, as
in all Others. the interests of my cOnstitu-
ants are my interests, and whatever
those interest call for, l shall gladly aid
in accomplishing.
Now the trouble with Senator Plumb
is that on this tariff question he does not
seem to know what 1.-THE interests Of his
constituents" really "dOes call for 5"
His brain * becoming saturated with
Mugwumpism which clouds his mental
vision
In the first place, no one has advocated
an ''indiscriminate increase Of duties on
imported merchandise" The Mckinley
bill IS one Of the most discriminating
tariff bills ever gotten up. There are
only a few articles on which the duties
are increased, and among those are arti-
cles. ike tin plate, that are not produced
in this country because the tariff Is too
low.
In she second place, it i not the evil
dence of a statesman To stimulate sec
tionalism, By encouraging antagOnism
between the east and the west. The
products Of the west find their largest
and best markets in the east. i Senator
Plumb going u form an alliance between

MISS NELLIE LEGATE.

Tt is stated that Miss Nellie Legate has
rendered her resignation as charter clerk
to the secretary of state. For a number
Of years, six or seven, at least, Miss Leg
ate has been a familiar figure around the
Office Of the secretary of state, especially
so during the sessions of the legislature
when that Office IS brought into such
busy and constant relations with the
members of both house and senate. And
it is safe to say that no other occupant of
that office will be more greatly missed
by state officials, by the members of the
legislature and by people generally who
have had business with that office than
Miss Legate, who through her long and
conscientious service has become almost
as well known to the classes alluded to
as her father, the Honorable James F.
Legate, is known to the people of the
state at large. No reason is stated for
the resignation, but whatever it may be
there are hundreds of people in the state
who, knowing her capabilities and her
unwavering constancy to duty, viii wish
her success and happiness for all her
future

players, his face lighted up with in
terest, and he remained a spectator OF
the game for at least five minutes. As
he turned away caught a glimpse of
sad and intense yearning as it fitted
across his face which plainly said:
How wish were boy again" What
man has not had the same feeling and
made the same wish.
The big social stars are slowly but
surely leaving and vending their way
towards mountain or sea side, and a trip
through the fashionable part of the city
is almost as depressing, owing to the
tightly closed, gloomy looking houses, as
attending a funeral. Mrs. Blaine was
about the last representative of the social
end of the administration to go; but this
week she and the entire family, includ-
ing the secretary, go to Maine to remain
until October. Gen. Greedy having fail
ed to get the weather bureau in the prop
er condition to furnish weather. has
taken his family and gone to the Maine
sea shore, where he knows he Will find it.

its approval of an increased by passing
the house bills to admit as states, Wyom-

promised to sign both bills tomorrow at
Cape May.
Things look queer around the main
corridor of the capitol building this week,
owing to the absence of the numerous
lunch, cigar, news and bric-a-bac stands
which have so long disfigured one of the
finest buildings of the world. The inno-
walton is the work of Speaker Reed, who
gave the keepers of these stands notice
some time ago that they would have to
get out on or about July 1. One of the
displaced dealers is French woman who
has had bric-a-brac stand in the capitol
since the days when Henry Clay was a
power in congress.

Kansas gets s., 456 of the four hundred
thousand dollars appropriated by the gov
eminent to be distributed among the states
for "arming and equipping the militia. y
Small favors thankfully received. and
larger ones in oportion,-Wilson County
Citizen.
That is a much greater proportion than
Kansas ordinarily gets from the appro-
priations made for national purposes.
There are millions upon millions of dol
lars appropriated annually, not one dollar
of which ever reaches Kansas in any di-
rect and not one dollar Of which her peo-
pie ever see. The only money Kansas
people ever get from the general govern
ment is in the way Of the pension lists,
but we are looking for some eastern rep
resentauve to rise in his pace and offer
an amendment to the pension appropri-
alton bill, excepting the state of Kansas
from any participation.

EUGENE F. WARE.

The Fort Scott Monitor is out for Hon
Eugene f. Ware for congress, to succeed
Funston. Mr.. Ware always was a credit
to Kansas and will prove a credit to the
state in whatever position he may be
placed. In the prime of life, vigorous Of
body and of mind, well read and sue
cessful lawyer, and over and above all,
in full accord with his state, with all
that it is and all that it has been in the
past, he would, in many ways, become
pride to the pepole of the state on the
floor of the national house Of representa-
tives. As for the interests Of the Second
district, no man could be found within
its borders who would more earnestly
and capably guard them than Eugene F.
Ware,

LoUIsTANA,s LOTTERY.

The southern states never took kindly
to the declaration that the north held to
higher political life and purer moral
motives than the south. But taking the
late action of Louisiana in granting a
new lease of life to the lottery swindle
and the question is settled. Such thing
would have been impossible in any north
ern state. One and a quarter millions
of dollars annually, or thirty odd million
dollars for a period of twenty-five years
IS the sum the state sold itself for That
there could be anything, honest in bust
ness which pays such an enormous sum
annually for the privilege of carrying on
its transactions, needs no argument. 1t
means that the lottery company viii pull
from the pockets of the gullable of sur
rounding states and from the pockets of
its own poor, millions of dollars annu-
ally.
Louisiana, morally and politically is
one hundred years behind the states of
the north, if not that far behind her own
immediate sister states Of the south. The
moral standard of such a people is but
the honor of the gambler.

You can't down Wichita. Having dis
covered that its population is only $4,000,
the EAGLE says: Business. after all, is
the true measure of any city's Importance.

ed for much graveyards would be lively
places. "-Capital.
We don't mean to intimate, by any
means, in the above, that Topeka was
not an exception as graveyard. Be
sides Wichita's new recount-in 19OO-is
going to show her to be all right. 1t
further might not be out of place to sug-
gest that Wichita's figures have never
been given out yet and that the $4,000
business is a simple guess.

RACES.
WANING INTEREST IN BASE BALL.
The base ball people seem to have
killed the goose that laid their golden
eggs. Certainly there is no such interest in
this city, in the games as in former sea-
sons. There are now so many contests
that our public is too much confused to
concentrate its attention on any of the
clubs The base ball editions of the ev-
ening papers no longer command phe-
nominal sales. and the battle between
any two leading clubs is no longer the
talk of the town. Last season hundreds
of base ball enthusiasts could be found
who could rattle off from memory the
percentage of every club each night
Now not one in ten of them can do more
than tell the club at the head of each as
sociation. The individual players are al
so losing their hold upon the idolaTous.
and there are no longer great gatherings
in front of the New York newspaper
offices watching the base ball bulletins.
Some persons assemble, as formerly, but
not one tenth as many as last season.
Surely too many cooks are spelling the
broth.
EXODUS OF TEACHERS.
Most of the schools have had their
commencements, and the teachers are
once more at liberty. Their vacations
extend TO September, usually the first
Tuesday of that month; but in some in
stances the teachers do not come back to
work until October. The combination
trips to Europe are taking a great many
of these instructors, as the rates are low.
A teacher can go to Europe for about the
same sum of money as would be required
for a trip over any considerable portion
of our own country; and the teachers
take the European tour for fear they will
never have so good a chance, as it Is only
in rare instances that a teachers bridal
tour embraces a sea voyage. Some teach
ers take no vacation at all. They simply
change their avocation, and count all
they earn during the summer as clear
gain. GUY FAwKEs.
