The Lawrence Journal thinks that
1.-THE Republican party in Kansas ought
to have sufficient gratitude to elect
Chancellor Snow governor of the state
next year because of his services as a
chinch bug exterminator. There is GER

idea as there was a few years ago in
the suit Of blue jeans that tided old
man Williams into the governors office
in Indiana, or in the yellow fever hero"
fad that gave DR.. Luke Blackburn carte
blanche to the office OF chief executive
of Kentucky. Nevertheless, as the

chances are that the party's gratitude
will express itself in the usual way-to-
wards one of the Bills or Toms or Dicks.

OUR YESTERDAYS.

fsaw my yesterdays go past,
A sinuous steam OF souls OF days,
Clad diversely; in the vague hare
Some forms, il seemed, no shadows cast;
Each right hand held its mirror fast,
Some wreathed with myrtle, some with
bays,
And those that answered to my gaze
Showed me my memories as they passed
Over a twilight plain afar
Their blurred line faded out OF view
Toward mountains mystic as the sea;
But, shining each one ike star,
The mirrors wherein saw you
Cleaned backward through the dusk 70

No Martyrdom About It.

From the Newton Republican.
The killing of Sam Wood has been
treated by every paper in the state so far
as we know as a most unfortunate oc-
currence-except by the Alliance papers.
1t is painful to note how eagerly they
pick up the death of their brother re-
former to make political capital out of
it. Although he died as he lived, man
of personal enmities, and at the hands of
a man whose enmity he had incurred,
yet these papers are crying that his TAX
ing off came about by the hostility of
the "Hessians of the money power"
that "his ceaseless antagonism to the
monopolistic element was the real cause
of his murder"
This is worse than bosh. 1t is an at
tempt to Use the sad end of comrades
life so as to make profit out of it. A man
who will do that would sell his mothers
dead body to be cut in pieces on the dis
secting table. Sam Wood died because
Jim Brennan hated him. That is the
whole story.

As Others See Il.

From the Burlington Nonpariel.
The city council of Wichita gave their
advertising to the EAGLE, at legal rates,
over another bid of As cents per square.
That is right. The EAGLE fights for her
town, and there is no uncertain sound
when it comes to advocating her inter
ests. There is no more equity in making
a printer work for nothing than there
would be in asking a laborer who is
doing work on the streets to donate his
work to the city. The price of both is
an honest one, regulated by law, and
should be paid for. 1t is economy in the
end.

In S Signo Felicitus

From the Newton Republican.
In this day of destructive criticism
nothing is permitted to stand as it has
been. The dollar sign, s, is not mono
gram of the letters Z. s.. it seems, but
a figure S, with two marks representing
the Pillars of Hercules drawn through it,
This is of Spanish origin, eight Spanish
reals being equal to one dollar, and the
Pillars of Hercules being the rocks OF
Gibraltar and the headland opposite.
We do not care what they do with the
old explanation of the dollar sign so long
as they leave large supply of the thing
it signifies.

TOBACCO.
The Regies Not in 1.-THE Crop Not Suit
able And Prices too High.

We have straight tip from New
York to the effect that the Reggie con-
tractors have determined not TO enter
the loose tobacco market this season
for the reasons: First, the crop is
not strictly of the Reggie demand,
lacking in length and breadth OF leaf,
and while there is much suitable
qualities in the crop, it neceSsitates
the buying of too much that is not
suitable. 1t is now conceded that
there is more fine Wrappery and
spinning leaf tobacco in this crop
than any one raised for many years,
and it is therefore high price crop.
Moreover, it is quality that is
greatly in demand in quarters that
offer lively competition, and then il
is short crop, with two short crops
coming together and old stocks
greatly reduced. The prices are
already too high for the Reggie trade,
and not many farmers disposed to
sell at the figures. Therefore,
the Reggie contractors having
bought largely last year, will not
open their country houses for loose
buying this season, but will take
chances on. the board for what they
want.
This is the information we have
on the subject, which of course comes
second handed, and while we have
reason to believe it is true, farmers
and dealers can place whatever value
or estimate on it they may think
proper. So far we have heard of no
preparation on the part of Reggie
agents for,buying, and if they intend
ed to buy they would now be in the
market ready for business. Whether
they buy pound of the weed or not,
there is a good demand at good fig
ures for the entire crop this year
Plant low and sell high, should re.
the motto.

Let our stewards be ready for the
second quarterly meeting. Make
your best efforts. Now is the time.
Our pastors with few exceptions have
received but little on their
salaries up to date. Their ex-
penses through the winter are
heavy. Their embarrassment will
be great unless the stewards act
promptly and faithfully. Brethren,
please see that your pastors and their
families have the support to which
they are entitled under the gospel
"Even SO hath the Lord ordained that
they which preach the gospel should
live Of the gospel Present the
claims Of the church for the support
Of the ministry to all the members
and urge them TO make liberal offer
ings now, so as to meet the present
emergencies Of the pastors. Our
people will meet these claims when
they are rightly presented. Much
depends on the wisdom, fidelity and
activity of our stewards.
Let our pastors put forth earnest
and vigorous efforts to raise the col
lec,iOn5 ordered by the annual con-
ference. These collections are i'm
pOrtant. Now is the time to raise
them. Brethren, we must not rest
until these sacred claims of the
church shall have been paid IN full.
Present them to every member OF
the church. Turn on the light.
These claims are not a burden to
Christian people when they rightly
understand them. Good people give
to these sacred claims literally and
cheerfully. God loves the cheerful
giver. HERsCHEL B. REAMs.

The Crisp Tariff Policy.

eff the congressional victories OF
1890 meant anything, they meant
the popular triumph of tariff reform.
If the appointments of Speaker

victories have been already won."
