WHAT CONGRESS DID.

The first session Of the Fifty-first con-
gress just ended was the longest, but
one, Of any previous session, and the
number of measures enacted into laws
was the greatest without exception. OF
course a large majority of these were
private in their nature, that is for the
special benefit Of persons rather than of
the public, but an unusually large num-
Der of bills of a public nature were
passed and have or will become laws.
These are in line, mainly, with the
pledges of the Republican party, (Which
is responsible for them made in its plat
form of 1888, prominent among them
the enactment of an antitrust law, the
silver bill which means virtually free
silver, the adoption of Blaines great re-
ciprocity scheme, the passage of the dis
ability pension act, a general land grant
forfeiture act, the anti-lOttery law, bills
providing for meat inspection which will
again open foreign markets for our meat
products, and the various bills proposed
by the national grange-all of these pass
upon the statute books as the work of
the Republican majority. Every one
of these meet the full require
ments Of the Alliance so far as
the demands of that following relate TO
those subiects-and they constitute the
major portion of the said demands that
are meant to benefit the public in a gen
eral way.
As far as this goes. therefore, as much
has been accomplished by the Republic
can majority in congress for the special
benefit Of the people at large, and for the
agricultural interests in particular as if
that interest had dominated congress
and dictated its proceedings. What
more the Alliance could hope to accom-
plish than has been, even if they should
succeed in electiug a majority of the
next congress. is something of an
enigma. The fact is, they don't expect
TO; they are in the present movement
Just for the novelty of the thing. and
without the expectation of improving
matters. and. really, without much hope
Of getting in position 10 do so.

TIME TO WORK.

1t is time that the Republican central
committee were organizing a campaign
for the county. 1t should be thorough
and a telling one. There are many side
issues and personalities in this campaign
about which no little misunderstanding
and dissatisfaction exists, but there is
one thing undeniable and that is that
;he entire county ticket ought to be
elected, not only in the interest of the
Republican party, but in the interest Of
tax payers. The men have been tried
and tested and found capable and worthy
and the canvas can be a bold and aggres-
one, for there will be no excuses TO make
or blunders to explain. The records
alone Of these officers, politics even
aside, ought to insure their election by
big majorities. Some of the big guns of
the state will be in Wichita within the
month, but we want competent takers
in every school district in the county.
There is no sense in lying supinely on
our backs and permitting a chance of de-
feat with such good material to work
with. What is the central committee
doing?

Bismark is said to be DESTROYS of re-en-
tering public life as member of the up
per house of the diet. His presence there
might not be altogether agreeable to the
young emperor but he could not fail to
bring much of dignity and distinguished
character to the consideration of public
affairs. That he would have considera-
BILE influence upon his associates may not
be doubted, but he would find his posi-
ton vastly less to his satisfaction than
when he was the power of Germany.
Unless he comes into sympathy and ALI
ance with the emperor, he who has had
the world at his feet will be forced to suf-
fer the pains of neglect.

KANSAS HORSES.

From the A;chison Champion
Senator Plumb recommends that Kan
sas stockmen breed horses for the cav
airy service of the government. The
late Gen. Clusters most famous charger
was a Kansas horse.
There is a good deal in this suggestion.
The art of breeding good horses is now
so well understood in Kansas. and the
facilities for almost indefinitely extend
ing this industry, with the proper effort,
could be made very profitable. We have
all the requisite conditions in this state
for producing as good horses as they
have in Kentucky and Vermont-an
abundance of blue grass, good water, a
temperate climate. ETC., and these things
could and should be utilized TO fine adj
vantage.
Kansas already produces as good
horses as may be found in any other
state. The horse exhibits at the recent
state fair at Topeka, and the various
county fairs that have been held this
fall, are proof of this. All over Kansas
today may be found as splendid speci-
mems of horse flesh an any one could
wish to see. Properly managed, this
breeding of horses, not only for the gov
eminent cavalry horses, but for general
purposes, not excepting the race track,
could be made very profitable business
in Kansas.

From the Atlanta Constitution
What about the political complexion of
the next house:
This Is the question all Democrats are
asking now, but one which few of them
can answer. Up to a few weeks ago ev-
cry Democrat felt sure that the Demo-
Gratis would win the next house by at
least twenty-five majority. However,
when Chairman Flower, of the Demo-
cratic congressional committee stated
yesterday that not one single dollar ex-
cept the SO, 900 which he subscribed out
Of his own pocket, has been subscribed TO
the Democratic fund, and that the result
of the election was very doubtful, there
was some CONSERVATION in the Demo
cratic ranks. The Democratic members
would not stand an assessment, and,
with the exception of Mr.. Flower, not
one has subscribed dollar TO the fund.
Nor have any outsiders subscribed dol
lar. Indeed, the Democratic committee
has never had anything but Mr.. Flowers
$780, 900, and there seem 10 be no pros
poets Of getting any more.

cess of the seige, and came pretty near
succeeding, and would, probably. but
for the timely arrival of a rescuing force
sent up from the Army of the Tennessee
at Chattanooga.
With the appearance of this force in
his rear, LOngstreet was placed between
two armies, which combined made a
stronger force than he had; but he de-
termined at the last hour to make an
effort to capture the city and its occupy
ing forces under Burnside, and made
ready for the attack. At the given
signal, that was sounded Just
at daybreak, the two brigades Of Nc
Laws division that confronted Fort San
derS on its south and west angles moved
forward to the attack and succeeded in
reaching the trench on the outside, but
their supports on the right and left failed
to come up. This left the fanks of the
attacking column exposed and the Union
troops that occupied the thanking breast
works on the right and left of the fort who
took prompt advantage of the situation
and poured volley after volley down the
enemy's lines moving them down by
scores and hundreds. The fort could
not be scaled under such conditions and
after making several fruitless attempts,
and when more than half their numbers
had been killed and wounded. the Con-
federates retreated precipitately.
The attack was not renewed, and after
an interval of sufficient length to bury
their dead and attend temporarily to
their wounded that could not be re-
mOvd. the Confederates withdrew from
before Knoxville and moved up the Hol-
ston river some distance, crossed that
stream and went into winter quarters at
Strawberry Plains and Russellville.
The loss to the Union troops in the
battle at Fort Saunders amounted to
practically nothing, but the per cent Of
loss Of the attacking forces to the num-
Der engaged was hardly surpassed dur

SEPTEMBER WEATHER.

From Professor Shows weather report
for September:
The coolest September on our twenty
three years record except September
1863 The first white frost occurred on the
13th-the earliest autumn date for such
frost except in 1878. The average date
for the first autumn frost is Oct. /. The
rainfall was almost double the average
for September, bringing the total preci-
pitation for 1890 nearly up to the aver
age. The highest temperature was S9.5
degrees, on the Cd; the lowest was 81 de-
grees on the 18th, giving a range of 76.5
degrees. Rain fell in measurable quaint
ties on nine days. There was one thun-
der shower. The entire rainfall for the
nine months of 1890 now completed, has
been 27.41 inches, which is only 153
inches below the average for the same
months in the preceding twenty-five
years. The total run of the wind was
9.191 miles, which is 1.107 miles below
the September average. This gives a
mean daily velocity of 1875 miles. The
highest velocity was forty miles an hour,
on the 9th from noon to p. m.
