TERRITORIAL COMMENTS ON
THE LEGISLAT URt.

An Insult to the Judge and petriinent
to the People
AS was 10 be expected, the Democratic
house O; representatives of the New Mex
leo legislature ousted Mayo and Read, Re-
publicsns, and seated Easley and Gable,
Democrats, notwithstanding the undis-
puted fact that the voters OF Santa Fe
county had elected Mayo and Read.
The Democratic press Of the territory
virtually admit that they were fairly
and honestly elected, but claim that
the question was not decided on
its merits. The question before the
bouse was whether the decision OF the
district court to right a wrong was to be
respected, and the house decided that a
legally constituted member OF the supreme
court of New Mexico was entitled to no
consideration by democratic organlza-
ton. That only such laws as aided de m
ocrats IN securing and maintaining con"
troll of public affairs, no matter how such
control be obtained, should be obeyed.
In our humble opinion no political party
can secure any permanent advantage by
such questionable proceedings. Ration
Range.

eral election no liquor shall be sold to
any habitual drunkard or to children or
minors. The authorities granting the

same upon proper complaint and proof
that the law has been violated. Fall pro-
vision is made for the recovery of damages
by interested parties for damage done to
or sustained by persons or property ty
intoxicated persons; intoxicstion is made
nisdemeanor; just penalties are pro-
vided for violations OF the provisions OF
the act
The bill is very superior one and will,
if passed, be of great benefit to the people
and the territory; it is carefully and COM
prehensively drawn and contains none
but good and wholesome provisions.
1t has been fully demonstrated fhof a.
present law is either dead letter or II a.
all observed very vicious and injurious
Therefore Mr.. Mills bill ought to become
law and should become law. Tue NEW
MEXICAN is of the opinion that the councn
will pass it, and if it is defeated it will be
defeated in the house and with that body
will rest the responsibility the decent
and good people Of New Mexico demand
the passage Of just such a measure. The
action of the house will show whether or
not it favors good, necessary and whole
some legislation and such as is demanded
by the people or whether it is deaf TO- the
voice of the people.

To the Editor Of the Eagle.
On last Friday morning met party OF
gentlemen sent here from Michigan by
gentleman working for Michigan immigra-
| ton to Kansas This party arrived here
on the $50 train over the Rock Island road
Friday morning I showed them Wichita
Friday. and at 600 o. N. we took the train
for Garden Plain, this county. had never
met them before personally and told them
had nothing TO recommend to them ex-
cept the earth, and that if after twenty
| minutes ride over it they were not con-
WINGED that they had struck the center OF
| it (agriculturaily speaking) I would take
them back to Wichita in a Pullman for
| nothing We arrived at Garden Plain
| just at sun set (the finest one they had ever
Witnessed and after looking over, under
and all around half dozen corn cribs con-
tanning at this time between $1,000 and
| 10000 bushels of corn, and great grain
cries and bins Of wheat piled up before the
naked eye, we took tea at our genial
hosts, Billy Taylor's. After poor KAN
sas meal of melt-in-yourmOuth beef steak,
| potatoes snow white bread, pie, cake,
| cream and peaches (canned) and thirteen
| other Kansas dishes, we slept and had Just
| two hours and ten minutes IN the morning
to see the country and locate these CRITICAL

country where the moles and musk rats
have mortgaged their straw houses, $500.
600, 900 farm debt on Michigan farms by

we were back at the train with those three
men all located and this morning one OF
them was making contract with Mr.
Geory to move house from one piece OF
| land to another to save wasting time to
| what
other states do when they see this country.
We have pried that country open in the
face of opposition at home and abroad,
with the Wichita EAGLE at our backs
holding up Kansas as the star OF the uni
| verse for farmer. We have driven the
wedge in with cold sides, jawbone, deter
mination in our hearts and the best coun-
try and the best newspaper for country
that the sun ever rose over, and now we
would like to see others go to work. Let's
take what is before US.

Faces with Lanterns Behind Them.

There is nothing more catching than
face with lantern behind it, shining clear
through. / have no admiration for face
with dry smile, meaning no more than
the grin of false face. But smile writ
ten by the hand of God, as An index or ta-
bic of contents TO whole volumes OK good
feeling within, is benediction. You say,
my face is hard and lacking in mobility,
and my benignant feelings are not observ'
able in the facial proportions" do not
believe you. Freshness and geniality OF
soul are so subtle and pervading that they
will, at some eye or mouth corner, leah
out. Set behind your face a feeling Of
gratitude to God and kindliuess toward
man and you will every day preach scr
mon long as the streets you walk, q ser
mon with as many heads as the number Of
people you meet. and differing from other
sermons in the fact that the longer 1t Is
the better.-Dr. Talmage in Ladies Home

greeted Rev. C. S. Nusbanm. anxious to
hear this popular young minister for the
first time. All were delighted with his
preaching. An urgent and unanimous
call has been made for his appointment 10

feature OF this service was beautiful solo
by Mrs. NJ Hanning. instead of the usual

AN OBSTINATE FIRE.

Last night about 10 o'clock fire was dis
covered in the Fort Scott elevator, on the
West Side, and it took the combined
efforts of all the hose departments to ex-
tinguish it, 80 furiously did it rage for a
short time.
1t is not known definitely how or in
what part of the building the fire origi-
mated, but it is supposed to have been set
by some one, and at the conveyor shaft
near the north door on the ground floor. 1t
may have been accidentally set by some OF
the many tramps who just now infest the
city and who might have been using the
building as lodging place.
When the departments reached the
scene they found that the worst of the fire
was in third story, which was then pretty
well Quilted by the flames. The flames
seemed to have sucked up through the
conveyor shaft, to the top OF the building,
and there to have spread. For half an
hour the delugs of water poured upon 1t
by three streams appeared to have
but little effect upon the fire on
the inside Of the top story. but one of the
departments climbed up on the west win 9
of the building and placing a ladder from
that to door in the third story they burst
it open and turned ii stream through this
opening which proved very effectual, and
in short time they had the fire under
control The building was very dry as
elevators usually are, and the true worth
of the fire department was shown In that
they put the flames under control Sc
speedily even after they had gained such
Roadway.
No information as to the amount Of
damage done or whether the property was
| insured could he obtained, as the lire oc
cured so late no one knowing anything
about the property could be found. There
was no grain in the building.

TIE KANSAS RAILROAD CENTEF


Wichita the Terminal OF Another Important
Line.
The railway trains OF Kansas are run by
and through Kansas towns, but they are
operated to and from Wichita. In that Iact
consists the character or tins city anc lts
actual business life, as also its superiority
in these paramount particulars over all
other places in the state, Kansas City,
Kan. excepted. The Midland is operated
to and from this point, as Is the NlchlVa
and Western, and, also, the southwest
branch of the Union Pacific. This Is the
headquarters for the conductors, engineers
and trainmen and mail and express agents
of these lines Lately the Santa re ADDED
another exclusive Wichita train, kown as
the Wichita and Kansas City express,
daily both ways.
Yesterday by an order from Superin-
tendent Nickerson the trains Oh the south
west extension of the Santa he, winch
have heretofore connected with the main
Gulf line at Mulvane, will be run TO
Wichita direct as a terminal. Ihis ROAD
is about 175 miles in length, OF
nearly 900 miles from Wichita,
at its western terminus at Englewood ID
the southwest corner of Clark county,
which latter county it traverses, running
through Comanche. the corner or hiowa
| through southern Pratt, southern King
man and along the line dividing Sumner
| and Sedgwick. 1t is wheat field from
one end to the other. The passenger train
! on the new schedule will serve the people
| in most desirable way for the entire dis
lance named, giving them direct daily
service to and from the principal trade
market in the state. That it will prove
| satisfactory to the communities OF al
these counties there is not a question. The
new independent train will arrive In Wien
! tia from Englewood and intermediate
points at p. H., and will depart for the
! southwest at the same minute that The
! Wichita and Kansas City express leave:
