FOUND DROWNED.

PORTLAND, Aug. IL. - About Z
o'clock yesterday morning some EN-
ployes of the dredger below the +
street dock noticed body floating
in the water. 1t was discolored 30
much as to present the appearance
of a negro. They at once secured
he body and tied 1t to the piles
under the dock, and notified the
coroner, who removed it TO the
morgue. The body was much
swollen and discolored and has the
appearance of having lain in the
water several days. 1t appeared to
be that of man about 30 years OF
age. His hair was red aud curly
aud he had a red moustache.
Nothing of value was found upon
his person save two or three dollars.
From letters found in the pockets of
his coat his name was ascertained to
be William Clayton Riley, and be
mas been living at No. 81, North

He Didn't Mind.

A good story Is told OF Bay Middleton,
whose name in England Is n household
word for jokes and escapades OF all kids.
1t seems that in the house was a guest
who, for some reason, did not bring a
smoking jacket with him, and committed
the heinous offense of appearing in the
smoking room in n dress coat. Bay Mid
dleton vowed vengeance against him, and
promised him that II he repeated the of
Tense he would tear the coat from his back
The following night the man appeared in
the smoking room very late, wearing, ~
usual, his evening coat.
He took his position before the fireplace,
with his arms on the mantelpiece, gazing
contemplatively into the fire and present
Z his coat tails in a tempting fashion TO
Bay Middleton. The offer could not be re-
fused, and Bay seized the coat tails and
split the coat up TO the collar. The victim
never moved or said word. The joke
seemed 10 fall fat. Some one asked he Of
the split coat why he did not make any OBJ
lection. upon which he said:
"Why should /? AS | came down stairs

MAIL-SORTING AT SEA.

The ocean postal service between the
United States and Germany received its
first practical test upon the arrival in
New York of the Havel of the North
German-Lloyd steamship company. The
Havel reached Sandy Hook at $50 a. M,
and was met at Quarantine by officers of
the company who were charged with
transferring the mail to the postoffice.
There were in all eighty-five sacks,
containing SO, 500 letters. The mail was
made up exactly as it would have been
on postal car-sorted, backstamped and
tied in separate packages for the different
states and large cities. 1t arrived in time
to catch the morning through mail train
for Chicago and the west. Had it been
handled according to the old system it
could not have been sent out until p.
m. Letters for city delivery were given
TO the carriers Immediately after the
mail arrived, and they were able to de-
liver them on the $40 trip.
The postal clerks on bard the Havel
were p. B. Hoffman for this country
and Mr.. Gollniz for Germany. Mr.. Coll
niz has never been at sea before and the
rough weather Of last Friday was too
much for him. Consequently the work
was delayed for a day, but by working
extra hours they were able to get the
mail ready for delivery before reaching

A QUESTION OF EPITAPHS.

A fac simile of Gen. Sherman's auto
graph is to adorn his tombstone, to notify
the future researcher of his mortal
whereabouts, as well as give sample
of his earthly handiwork. In company
with this announcement, comes also the
information that the late Mr.. Spinner S
tomb will hold fac simile of the curli-
cues, flourished, twisted and famous
signature. The question naturally arises
to the inquiring mind sis this custom
going to spread" OF course, there is a
difference of opinion as to the necessity
of epitaphs, both from the Wanted
stanzas containing advertisements of the
survivors business or sentiment couplet
reciting the deceased's worthiness. But
SO long as the progress of cremation is
kept back by popular prejudice, tomb
stones will be in use and any new idea in
such an Old institution will be received
with interest. But should we make an
autograph album ont of our graveyard?
Shall the hair-brained penman go down
to posterity in the commingled caravan,
as the peer of another Shakespeare whose
signature looks like the bottom of a
chickencoop after hard shower: And
in case writing should go out of vogue,
will the future imperial Caesar write his
''veni, vidi, vice." by the aid of type
writer, for his monument?

THE RUSSIAN SPIRIT.

The persecution of the Jews by the
! Russians throws faint glimmer of that
nations future upon the prophetic
| crystal. The intensity and ferocity OF
the Nihilists, who are supposed to repre-
| sent a republican proneness in The peo-
pie, is proven of little matter, when the
authorities, by the license and sanction
of the Russian people, prosecute COM
mon brother and drive him from the
country. If there were any chance of
Russia undergoing a change of revolu-
tionary dimensions, such thing as the
persecution of the Jews would never
have happened. When the moment has
arrived for the downfall of tyrannical
house, the brotherhood of all nationali-
ties and tongues and dress is common,
as is the cause, and any discussions, to
say nothing of internecine persecution,
shows condition that, in no wise, prom
ises the downfall OF the old regime. In
the tortuous evolution Of the nineteenth
century France, the hosts were lead and
the most wonderful part of French his
tory, was made by man who was not
Frenchman-Napoleon. Russia is not
ready to be turned into republic, there
are no doubt many citizens who are i'm
bued with the true feeling of democracy,
but SO long as the populus is not of a
civil standard, above the persecution of
one sect or nationality, the government
of that nation will be one of tyranny and
slavery.

BETTER THAN PISTOLS.

An incident occurred near Dalton, Ga.,
few days ago, which seems to indicate
that the code duello has taken on a modi-
fed form in the settlement of personal
affairs. Here is brief account of the
incident as given by the Atlanta Consti-
tuition:
1.-TWO young men in Dalton had a
grievance against each other. Instead of
appealing to the code and getting into
the wilderness of tangles and circumlo-
cutions involved in technical CORE
spondence, which is almost as painful as
the shooting to which it is supposed to
lead. or not lead, as the case may be; in
stead of appealing to unlawful weapons
and taking the risk of sending a human
soul into eternity, these young men APP
pealed to the arms that nature gave
them. They went off to a quiet place
and adjusted matters with their fists,
after the most approved style. 1t was
not a nock-down-and-drag- affair,
but was conducted in good order, if not
in good taste. Several rounds were
fought, and the set-to continued until
the principals were thoroughly satisfied.
Ordinarily the affair which led 10
this sparring match would have led to
voluminous correspondence; and prob
ably to hostile meeting with pistols.
The common sense which is the basis of
our civilization has come to understand
that the duel settles nothing. The per-
son who is seeking redress is as apt to be
killed as the man who has given the
affront. The barbaric equity on which
the dueling system is based IS a myth; it
redresses no wrongs and easily makes an
honorable man a murderer.
The two young men of Dalton are to
be congratulated on the fact that they
were courageous enough to settle their
difficulty in a sensible and manly way.
Whatever satisfaction is to be got out of
resort to force Is theirs, and neither
one mas the blood of fellow creature on
his soul"

certainly must agree with your cor

as long as the world stands we have no
right or authority to substitute anything

that supply does not depend upon the
admission of foreign hides.
But the free admission of these pro-
ducts, while not an abandonment or
weakening of the protective policy, can
| be made a means of broadening and
strengthening the defenses of home in
dustry by securing for its products larger
| markets. Thus turned to account, the
removal of the duties on some things not
! here produced becomes a powerful pro-
| lection of the home industry engaged in
the production of other things. Ii a
treaty with Spain secured the admission
of ], O00. 900 barrels of flour into Cuba 1t
adds about s., 900, 900 yearly to the for
eign demand for American flour, and
consequently to the protection of Ameri-
can flour producers and wheat growers.
AT the same time, that treaty admits
to this country free of duty nothing on
which protective duties have been i'm
posed not a single article with which it
is believed the United States can supply
itself by domestic industry.
Genuine reciprocity is, therefore, an
extension and strengthening of protec-
ton. because it operates to secure larger
markets for products of this country
with which home industry already sup
plies it, and at the same time does not
abandon or weaken the protection of any
industry which protective duties are de-
signed to encourage. 1t is broad and.
national policy, and looks to the welfare
of the people as whole, and in that re-
spect also is exactly in harmony with
the system of protection.

"IHE DIRTY BIRD, ETC"

1t seems that Gen. John II. Rice, o.
| Fort Sc TT, has gone daft on the Ali
ance, and that he is not more reliable a.
to other matters. The old gentleman
who has abandoned railroad construc
ton to play the horny handed apostle, i:
down in New England preaching a gos
pei which lacks the essential elements OF
truth, or otherwise the Hartford Time;
misquotes him in an interview which
purports to have taken place in the
sanctum Of that paper. The cid man
praised eastern Kansas at the expense OF
central and western Kansas, which lat
ter he blasted. He is represented as de-
claring to the editor of the Times that
western Kansas, or one-third of the state,
a desert, of dry, sandy soil, producing
but little, and not worth much If worth
anything. He goes on further to say
that extreme eastern Kansrs contains
the richest lands in the world, which
district lilies east of Wichita"
We are not prepared to believe that
Rice has been correctly quoted. 1t he
was, no argument is necessary to substan-
tiate his fitness for the insane asylum.
Rice knows, and the world knows, or
ought to know. that the official statistics
of the sta e, issued monthly, quarterly
and annually, have shown uninterrupt-
eddy for years that the counties surround
ing Wichita, the very counties lying
west of the section which he is made to
represent as only being worth attention,
namely Sedgwick, Mcpherson and Sum-
ner have led all the counties in the state
of Kansas in the number of bushels OF
wheat and of corn produced; that these
three counties together with the adjoin-
ing counties of Butler, Cowley, Harper,
Kingman, Reno and Harvey will har-
vest fully one-fourth of the entire wheat
crop of Kansas for this year, as they have
in the past; that Sedgwick county alone,
year before last, according to the report
of the secretary of agriculture at Wash
ington. D. c., produced more corn than
was ever produced by any single county
in the United States in a single season so
far as the records show.
A sworn enemy of the state could not
have more outrageously misrepresented
the acknowledged garden spot OF Kansas
than Gen. Rice, as represented IN his
in the Hartford Times.

Will the Hon. H. B. Kelly, of McPher-
son, or the esteemed and high-soaring
EAGLE of Wichita, or any other believer in
and advocate of financial theosophy, who
have been demanding in piercing tones the
free coinage of silver and saying that it is
the only remedy for low prices, will some
of them have the gentleness and the good
ness to explain the wherefore of prevailing
prices?-Newton Republican.
For one of the number addressed the
EAGLE will say that the answer is very
simple. The question is answered by the
proposition or condition of supply and
demand. And this. suggests another
question as to the effect of the volume of
currency upon prices. If with the re-
stricted volume of money in actual Cir
culation now and the comparative scar
city of farm products on the markets,
prices are up to the good figures
they are, is it not logical that with
twice the volume of money we now have
prices would be proportionally higher?
AT any rate, would not the greater vol
ume of money stimulate trade and enable
many to purchase where they cannot
now. and those who can to purchase the
more? None are SO blind as those who
will not see.

RECIPROCITY AND FREE TRADE.
From the New York Tribune.

From the New York Tribune.
There are still found men of fair
/ intelligence in ordinary affairs who
imagine that reciprocity Is In some way
modified or limited form of free trade
The trouble with these gentlemen is that
they have not We. learned enough of the
political alphabet TO know what protec-
ton means. Most of them economic their
own thinking powers, and suffer some
so-called independent newspapers TO do
their thinking for them. 1t is not very
strange that such persons have as correct
a conception of the protective policy as a
useful watchdog has of astronomy.
The essence Of protection IS discrim-
ination IN duties on imports IN order to
restrain imports Of articles with which
this country does or ought 10 supply
itself by its home industry. 1t Is not a
departure from the protective policy in
the slightest degree to admit free of duty
anything this country cannot produce.
Free admission of tea, gum arabic or
spices, Is not contrary TO the protective
policy. Neither is free admission OF
India rubber. coffee or of sugar, because
many years of high duties levied for the
purpose of revenue hare failed to de-
naonstTate that protective duty would
enable this country 10 supply itself svltn
sugar. Neither is free admission OF
hides contrary TO the protective policy,
because the American supply IS 50 much
more abundant, and 50 much cheaper
tr2n any other. thatIt always commands
the home market TO the full exter. Of
the domestic production, saa the price 0.

SEES IT DIFFERENTLY

Such statements, taken for true, furnish
the free traders with their strongest argu-
ment in favor of their theory high
tariff on imports in England would de-
stroy the advantage the states now enjoy
in that trade. Still. it may be argued that
but for the advantages afforded our manu-
lecturers By our tariff system they would
be unable TO offer any inducements for
foreign trade in any direction. Wichita
EAGLE
You are not altogether correct in this.
Without the tariff out manufactures
would not have been built up, it is true
But il was not manufactures but agri-
cultural products. principally that we
sold to England. Without the tariff we
would probably have had more agricul-
tural products TO sell. There would
have been no manufacturing. We would
have been trading our corn. wheat,
cattle, hogs, etc, for tie manufactured
goods of England. Without the tariff
the farmers of Kansas would be on the
same plane with the farmers Of the in
terror of India. or Brazil or of the Ar
gentine repahiic. And vet there are
those who saw that the tariff question Is
question that concerns Pennsylvania
and not Kansas. Times
