NO STATE CHURCH SCHOOLS.

The Massachusetts authorities are now
engaged in the manly business of sup
pressing parochial schools, on the plea
that the standard of education in such
schools does not come up to that pre-
scribed by law. If these schools are
supported at the voluntary expense of
individuals, without drawing from the
public funds, it seems to US piece of
high-kanded and fanatical tyranny to
attempt to supprass them. 1t must be
that the schools in question are support
ed in part from the public school funds,
in which case they ought to be sup
pressed, If the withdrawal of public
funds from their support will do it. The
question of state support to church
schools has been raised and contended
time and again in different parts of this
country, and has invariably been de-
feated, except in the single exception of
the Indian contract schools, that receive
some support from the government,
though these schools are paid on busi-
ness basis and not as church institu-
tions.

DAMS LOMBRE.

Never a sound of wind or thunder,
The winds are spent and the thunder dead,
In the humid hush one can but wonder,
What summer words the wind last said.
The chill mist clings with sleepy boldness,
Formless and dim its vapOr curls;
Uhe spiders web by its lustrous GOODNESS,
Is silver lace and milk-white pearls.J
A cold sweet blur the uplands hiding.
Where silence sleeps IN the dreamy blue;
The dank ripe grass weakly subsiding,
And the wet bird filings from his wing the
dew.
By the slim creeks edge trees bronze and
golden,
And the shumac clusters red as wine,
On the warped gray tree-stems gnarled and
Olden,
Hangs the mist-dulled fame of the poison
vine.

Lulled and listless and void OF mtrth,
Glad To rest from the summers riot,

MONEY SCARCE IN COLORADO.

To the Editor OF the Eagle.
We have had close, hard times here
during the sumner and fall, never more
so in this country; and this, notwith-
standing that crops were never better,
and the mineral outputs in this locality
greater. But there is little money in
circulation. Dealers find it difficult to
get money to pay for farm products,
and merchants have carried their GUS
toners to the limit of their ability; busi-
ness here is done mainly on credit or
trading basis. We attribute this adverse
condition of affairs to a lack of suffi-
cient money circulatian; the tariff ques-
ton exercising little infuence.on trade
in this locality.
A pronounced anti-silver candidate for
president, next year, would not know
he was in the race in Colorado.
This is the all important question with
our people out here, and they will be in
fuenced by this question to vote lrrespec-
tive of their former party affiliations.

makes the commercial value of the silver
ia the dollar little less than % cts. This
is not pleasing intelligence for the coun-
try, get the chances are that silver will be
lower still before it goes higher.-Globe-

All of which may be literally true, yet
it does not effect the commercial value,
the purchasing power of the silver dollar
one whit; nor viii it; neither does or will
such statement, fact though it may be,
diminish the popular demand for more
of the same stuff. The standard Ameri-
can silver dollar of today, or a certificate
representing it, is good enough money
TO satisfy the people of this country be-
cause they regard it as an honest dollar.

The Wichita EAGLE thinks that sorg
hum sugar making in Kansas will yet
prove successful and profitable. Its po-
SiJion Is not sustained by facts, and when
it says that the industry will not have to
depend upon the bounty, it looks as
though II goes beyond reason. Even the
sugar plantations of Louisiana would
be bankrupt in year were Ii not for the
bounty. and even the most visionary eu-
thusiast has never claimed that we would
successfully compete with the southern
sugar makers. The result of the sorghum
sugar industry so far has been most dis
astrous, aud there seems to be no posi-
bilitv that it Will ever be better. The
Journal would be glad if it could be made
profitable: il would be reloiced II we could
find gold IN abundance mixed with the
Kansas soil. but 1t believes one Is Just As
profitable as the eother.-Lawrence Journal.
The Journal should cOnfine itself TO
writing about matters with which 1t Is
familiar. 1t Is useless to enter into ar
Cumen upon the question, but we'll state
after close observation that the sorghum
sugar under favorable conditions can
DOW be made in CO upetition with any
country, and that with five years pro-
gress equal to the last five the industry
will lie established upon \ paying basis
subject to the viciSsltudes which all
manufacturing enterprises must meet

Some time ago Albert Griffin under
took to prove by a somewhat vague sys-
tenn of logic that the south is not irrev-
ocably solid for the Democratic party,
but that with a proper effort, made up
on a carefully constructed platform of
principles several of the southern states
might be carried by the Republicans in
the contest of 1892. Now comes ex-Con
gresham Sypher, at present in Wash
ington, and reiterates Griffin's aserva-
tions. Our own judgment is that any
such hope is a forlorn one now and will
be for some time to come. There was
for time slight shadow of hope for
such thing, but the emphatic, uniform
and persistent refusal of the Alliance in
that section to cut loose from the Demo-
cratic party, puts quietus to any such
hopes for the present EPhriam is

There has been, for some time, more
or less talk in Ohio of contesting the
right of Calvin 5. Brice to the seat in
the United States senate to which he was
chosen by the last legislature in which
the Democrats had majority ON Joint
ballot The grounds on which his right
to hold the senatorship are challenged
are dual. Ii is charged that he is not a
resident of Ohio, and was not at the
time he was chosen senator. and that
under the constitution he Is thereby in
eligible. Ii is further charged, on the
authority of his rival for the Democratic
caucus nomination for senator, that lie
obtained the senatorship by the use Of
money. This last, however, must be un-
derstood as applying to the action Of the
caucus of his party in making the nomi-
nation and not to his election by the
legislature IN Joint session. The money
he spent was in purchasing the support
OF his own party members of the legisia-
ture and in no sense attaches or implies
dlscredit or censure to any Republican.

THE PER CAPITA KANSAS DEBT.

From the latest census bulletin giving
the Indebtedness of the world and the
per capita of debt of each government
and of each state, we get the following
interesting figures, which are as plain
as they are no doubt reliable. The ag-
gregated Indebtedness of the world is
S26, ,917, ,096. $50, of which amount the
debt of the United States constitutes 3
per cent; the total debt of the several
states and territories, together with that
of their respective counties, 1.36 per
cent, and the local debt of all foreign
countries 95.2 "a per cent. Assuming that
five persons constitute family, the av-
erage debt per family for the year above
named was S7S. 10 in the United States;
1852 in the Argentine republic; S54. 80 In
Austria-Hungary; $315.5O in Belgium;
SCI 80 in Bolivia; S5S1.75 in France;
$500 in Bavaria; S21475 in Baden;
S449.7O in Bremen; $47425 in Hamburg;
S44S.95 in Great Britain and Ireland.
The net county Indebtedness of Kan
sas, as shown by the census bulletin, is
as follows:
Kansas-The total net Indebtedness of
the counties in the year covered by the
eleventh census was S14 593, ,751. This
amount is equivalent to an average in
debtedness of S51.14 per family through
out the state, it being assumed that five
persons constitute the average family.

Kansas City Gazette: "If it will do
any good the Gazette is decidedly in
favor of holding the next Republican
national convention in New York CITY.
The New York Press believes it would
be good politics, and of great service to
the party in that state to hold the con-
vention in New York. 1t says that
everybody there recognizes that the
holding of the convention in that state
viii make it Republican state in the
electoral college. This is the important
consideration which should guide the
national committee in making its choice
of the location of the convention. 1t is
far more important than the question of
what city viii contribute the largest
amount of money for defraying the ex-
penSeS of the convention while in session
and of the delegates who attend, includ-
ing railroad fares. which latter consid-
erations appear to be the basis of contest
over securing the convention.

AS TO MASSACHUSETTS.

In the Massachusetts, election Cover
nor Russell, Democrat, had a plurality
over Colonel Allen of only $500 al
thought II, 900 more votes were cast for
Russell this year than last when he had
a plurality over Governor Bracket of
over 5000. This shows decided Republi-
can gains. This is very gratifying to
Republicans; but the satisfaction is di-
luted somewhat by the reflection that
the vote for governor shows almost equal
Democratic gains in the state. But assur-
ance is restored to Republicans, as to
the future, by the further fact that the
next senate will be composed of twenty
three Republicans and seventeen Demo
Gratis, and in the house there will be 100
Republicans to eighty-nine Democrats.
The governors council consists of seven
and one Democrat. Just
where the wild rejoicing of the Demo
Gratis over Massachusetts, come in, we do
not see.
