CONSTITUTIONAL MONEY.

To the Editor OF the Eagle.
Your issue of May Goth has an article
from Mr.. r. l. Hukle, criticizing my
view of the money question, and in it
asks the following question.
"Will Dr.. Miller say that the congress
of the United States has not the con-
stitutional right to make money of gold,
silver, copper, brass, tin, iron or paper?"
The constitution of the United States
says that Congress shall have power to
coin money and regulate the value there
of, and of foreign COIN" 1T also states
that no state shall have the right to
make any thing but gold and silver coin
a legal tender for debt"
1.-The supreme court of the United
States has also decided that congress has
the right under the constitution to make
United States notes that are redeemable
in coin, a legal tender for debt. But
Chief Justice Strong, who rendered that
decision made the following statement
in reference to the act: "The legal ten
der acts do not attempt to make paper
a standard of value, nor do we rest their
validity upon the assertion that
their emission is coinage, or
any regulation of the value Of
money. What we do assert is that con-
gress has power to enact that the govern
ment promises 10 pay money shall be
for the time being equivalent in value TO
the representation of value determined
by the coinage acts, or to multiples
thereof" 1T is. then. a mis-
take to regard the legal tender acts as
either fixing standard of value or reg
ulating money values, or making that
money which has no intrinsic value. 3"
And such is the decision of the supreme
court Of the United States. but perhaps
Mr.. Hukle will be able TO show that con-
gress has the constitutional right 10
make money of tin, brass. copper. paper.
tobacco leaves, cabbage leaves, raw hides
or Limburger cheese: but if he can. we
doubt whether the people would tolerate
such money.
Mr.. Hukle saws: "In all our commin-
Cling with men-farmers in PARTICULAR
we have vet 10 hear and express a senti-
ment faYoring any money legislation
than that OF a sound one. WIN the
gentleman please tell Us JUST what he
considers sound money legisiation:
Tell us what money Is, and of what ma
terial he would have ii made. Would
he require the paper money 70 be re-
deemed in coin, or made without any
provision for redemption:

THE MAVERICK CASE.

The Maybrick case will go into history
as one of the most sensational criminal
cases on record. 1t has attracted wide
attention on both sides Of the Atlantic,
and interest in it has again been revived
because of a probability that Mrs. May
hrick will soon be pardoned. Although
she is an American woman, native of
Mobile, Ala, Mrs. Florence Maybrick
has found numerous strong friends in
England, who are doing their best to get
her out of prison.
1t will be recollected that Mr. May
brick, the Liverpool cotton merchant,
died in 1889, and the autopsy showed
traces of arsenical poisoning. His un-
happy wife was arrested, convicted and
sentenced to death, but the penalty was
subsequently committed to imprison-
ment for life. The conviction of Mrs.
Maybrick was due to several unfortunate
circumstances. 1t was proved that she
administered arsenic to Mr.. May brick.
1t was in evidence that she was carrying
on a love intrigue with a Mr.. Briefly.
Justice Stephen, who presided, charged
strongly against her and exerted him
self to secure her conviction.
AS for the other side, it was established
that Maybrick used arsenic habitually,
not only in England, but before he left
this country. He dosed himself, and re-
quested his wife to give him the drug.
The hotel waiter who testified to Mrs.
Maybrick's intimacy with Briefly now
solemnly states that he could not identify
the lady and Briefly in court as the par
ties he had seen at the hotel, but was or
dered by the police to swear that he
recognized them. He obeyed orders, and
now expresses his great regret for the
harm that resulted from his testimony.
One more point in the prisoners favor.
Justice Stephen has recently shown such
unmistakable signs of insanity that he
has been forced to retire from the bench.
This leads many to the conclusion that
his strange anxiety to convict Mrs. May
brick showed that his mind was unbal-
anced at that time.
This case is very similar, in many of
its details to the celebrated Walkup case
that occurred in this country a few
years ago, the elimination of which was
the trial at Emporia of the widow of the
arsenic victim and her acquittal of the
charge Of murder.

RESTRICTING IMMIGRATION.

fnatter of restricting immigration, and

but has already taken the initiatorv step
n that direction. The North German
Lloyd company has sent printed circu-
lars all over Germany instructing its
agents and sub-agents to take no passen-
gers that the laws of the United States

Pgents are in doubt about the prospect

4 LITERARY SENSATION.

Since the departure of AInelie Rives-
Chanler from this country almost imme-
diately after her marriage, we have had
only brief newspaper paragraphs con-
corning her life and literary intentions.
Not little literary curiosity has been
displayed as to the possibility of her
complete withdrawal from the field of
letters. 1t is now nearly three years
since anything of importance has ap-
peared from her pen, but no one be-
lieved that the exceptionally brilliant
author of ga Brother to Dragons had
finished her career as a writer. A recent
paragraph in the daily papers announced
that Mrs. RiVes-Chanler was hard at
work upon new novel destined to
arouse the entire literary world by its
artistic merit and bold originality. There
have been many conjectures advanced
as to the probable source through
which the new novel would be given to
the public. Notwithstanding the high
prices which Mrs. Chanler demands for
her manuscripts, it was known that
many publishers were in the field IN
competition for her latest work. While
many rumors were afoat, the Cosmopol-
tan Magazine had quietly secured it and
placed it in the hands of famous artist
in Paris for illustration. It's announced
now that the first chapters will appear in
the August number of the Cosmopolitan,
and that, in the estimation of critics who
are most competent to judge, this last
story will be the most finished, as we'll as
interesting product of this versatile
southern pen. The story is likely to be
the literary sensation Of the year. Its
publication in the Cosmopolitan is a
guarantee that it will contain nothing of
the kind that excited criticism in Amelia
Rives' earlier productions.

A PATCH OF GOLD.

The wheat throughout south Kansas is
not only holding its own in spite of
clouds and rain, but is improving every
|hour. The heads are full from butt to
Tip, the berries for plumpness resembling

land quarter TO a dollar and half
wheat for 1892, in call yesterday said
he had been down into the southwest
portions of Sedgwick county and the
northwest portion of Sumner county,
(and that he never saw the present. assur-
[ances of big wheat crop equalled. al
Though in two of the big wheat years he
was absent from this portion of the state.
But for the fact of stringent monetary
conditions of the country, which will
|force great volumes of wheat on TO the
market, he would expect to see wheat
materially advance this fall, vet because
|of these things he thinks it cannot. at
Feast very perceptibly. At any rate that
|was the way we understood him. Still.
buyers, no less than many farmers, know
sthat the wheat crop of the Old World is
short this year from 10 to 90 per cent,
1and we are inclined to predict stiffening
Father than falling prices.

LITERARY NOTE.


The time for summer reading is now
come and the various publishing houses
are putting out some very pretty vol
umes-among them the Worthington
company of New York They have just
issued two novels. 1.-The Rector Of st.
Lukes," and Her Playthings, Men"
These works are both well written and
entertaining, the first being translation
from the French of Marie Bernhard. In
addition to the intrinsic literary value of
both these books, the paper, printing and
photogravure illustrations are unusually
attractive. Nothing lends enjoyment to
a good work better than paper that is of
good quality and feels well to the touch,
large clear clean cut type and inter
spersed throughout with bright refreshing
illustrations, against whose charms the
greatest pedant is not adamant. These
volumes are for sale at the Rock Island
Book exchange.

c. Wood Davis, a Wichita philosopher,
who knows nothing about farming, but
processes to know everything about crops,
predicts two dollar wheat in Kansas with
in twelve months.-Atchison Globe.
The ignorance which the above item
exposes is only that of the editor of the
Globe. Mr.. C. Wood Davis, the Wichita
philosopher, lives on big farm in Sedg-
wick county which he has cultivated for
eighteen years or more and he has in
hundreds of acres of corn and wheat
this season. He narrated as long as fif-
teen years ago that in irrigation and not
in climatic changes rested the hope of
agriculture in western Kansas, so that
we judge he knows something about
farming. He does not predict s. wheat
in Kansas within twelve months. but he
does predict two dollar wheat in Kansas,
we believe by '99 or '95, if we remember
rightly.

The failure and suspension of the
Labor World on account of lack of pat
ronagelmay be taken as most porten-
tous straw as indicating the sentiment
of the laboring elements of the United
Kingdom, from whom the paper receiv-
ed its support mainly, in regard to Par
nell as leader of the Irish cause. The
reason for the importance that attaches
to the failure is found in the fact the
opponents of Parnen made the Labor
World their organ and vehicle of attacks
upon the great Irish leader, and the
withdrawal of support shows clearly
that the masses of the constituency re-
gard the campaign against Parnell as
personal persecution rather than legit-
innate prosecution in the interest of the
cause,

four thousand years ago, though the
showers, which the weather men tell us
are to continue indefinitely, may prove
as disastrous to the agricultural interests.
However, sufficient unto the day is the
