Central and western Kansas have
the advantage over eastern Kansas
this year in the way of full crops and
the excellence of the products of the
field, and havea splendid opportunity

their resources. Under such favora
bic conditions these counties are ex.
pecte! to be represented at the State

THIS is one of the most successful
years for the raising Of all kinds Of
crops that Southwestern Kansas ever
experienced. We can see already
the beneficial sesult in the demand
for lands under our irrigating system
Several farms have changed hands al
good figures and very few owners
can be induced to dispose Of their
farms unless at good prices-Hart

WITH this issue change occurs in
the management of the GLOBE -REpuB
LIcAN. w. G. Shinn again enters the
field Of journalism and will hereafter
have somewhat to say in these col
umns
1t is the purpose of the manage
ment to make this a newspaper well
worth the subscription price, con
tinuing to be clean, upright and re
spectacle. At the same time we shall
make special effort to portray truly
and faithfully the wonderful resour.
'ces OF this most fertile portion of the
great wheat and fruit producing State
OF Kansas. Acts of public servants
and private citizens, 50 far us they af
feet the public, will be freely discuss
ed without fear OF favor, but neither
malicious slanJer nor spiteful vitu-
peratiOn shall ever find place in these
columns. While dealing with such
issues as present themselves in the
manner which may to us seem best
for this community, we do not expect
universal approval from the people.
Men who agree as to what ought to
be done. often differ concerning expe-
diency of methods. Politically this
paper is straight Republican 1t may
occasionally become necessary to rel
egate some would be leader to back
seat. Some on whom the party may
bestow positions of trust will occas-
lonly prove recreant. In such event
it will become our duty to call upon
them to step down and give place to
those more worthy. But the ''grand
old party" contains splendid equip
ment of tried and true statesmen who
have never bowed the knee to the Cd
pressors of the people, betrayed a
trust or sold out constituency. Such
as these it shall ever be our pleasure
to urge to the front. We recognize
that agriculture and stock raising are
what we must rely upon as a founda
ton for future growth, and that tie
prosperity of the farmer is the only
hope for expanding the commerce of
cities and villages of this region,
hence shall make the encouragement
of these interests a leading feature of
this paper. 1t is our deliberate opin-
ion that the Mckinley tariff bill is the
greatest work on behalf of the western
farmer that has been accomplished
by act of congress in recent years,
and that the one chance for farmers
to protect their own interests lies in
the general policy Of bringing pro-
ducers and consumers AS close to-
gether as possible.

In Il recent interview. printed in the
ST. Louis Republic, Senator PETER, OF
Kansas. declared that the position of the
peoples party on the tariff is as follows
I'VE believe in the principle Of protec-
ton, but not to the extent that the re-
publican party has carried it. We want
protection that will protect the many,
not the few. We believe 10 protecting
home industries, but only sufficient to
equalize the difference in wages" II
this is the attitude of the peoples party
on the tariff question, every one will ask
what right it has to exist as a separate
party. 1t occupies exactly the position
of the republican party, and is trying to
reach the same end-the protection of
the wOrkingmen against the cheap la
Dor of Europe. Senator PETERS attempt
to draw IA distinction between the posi-
ton of the republican and peoples party
is not success. The line is too shad-
Owy and fanciful, and while he may de-
ceive himself he will not mislead any ex.
cept the most prejudiced of his follow
ers.-Philadeiphia Press.

Some of the democratic papers have
persisted In the statement that even if
tin plate was so protected rs to induce its
extensive manufacture i'm this country,
that it was of no benefit to the tin miner.
They do not seem to remember that
the growth of the tin plate Industry in
this country furnishes home market for
the products of the mine which would
not exist otherwise. 1t must be evident
even to the most prejudiced free trader
that it can be no advantage to the pro-
Queer of tin ore to sell to the English
manufacturer across the Atlantic in pref
erence to the maker of tin plate in
America. A tariff policy that creates
tin plate manufactures all over this
country must manifestly be satisfactory
to the tin miner because of its furnish
ing convenient market.

The city of Philadelphia voted 81 800
600 in aid of the centennial. Chicago
has appropriated 5000 900 for the fair
in '93. The government spent less than
100000 for the centennial but will spend
a million and half on its exhibit at
Chicago. These facts in themselves show
nothing. but Indicate the magnitude of
the Worlds Fair as compared with the
centennial. The centennial was q grand
affair bat the increase i'm the state and
national appropriations is an index Of
the growth Of the nation during the II
years that will have BASED between the
dates of the two great fairs. The growth
of the country since 1876 is marvellous
even for this stirring age and this Won

A NOVEL plan for extinguishing a
church debt has been hit upon in Mel
bourne. The church committee-Or ves-
try. as the case may be-divide the total
debt among themselves and each man
insures his life for the amount that falls
to his share. The policies are transferred
to the church. and the annual payments
on them are made out of the collections.
Then. of course as the members of the
committee ''drOp off, the sums insured
on their lives drop in. and later. when
the last committeeman is dead, the last
installment of the church debt will be
paid. The plan has the merritt merit
it be-of throwing the whole Of the re-
sponsibility for the continuance of the
Indebtedness upon providence.

reason of excessive and oft repeated

OATS, BARLEY AND FLAX.
The oat crop in Kansas, accord

the heaviest in the history Of our
state, likewise barley and flax. In
some counties these crops have sui

excessive moisture. In other cases
on account Of poor farming, they are
weedy, but on the whole these crops
are very good.

Career of Mexics's President.

President Porpio Diaz, of Mexico, is a
remarkable man. His life reads like q
romance. and he has had many narrow
escapes. One time he was obliged to flee
to New Orleans, and n coming back he
took passage under an assumed name au1
stayed in his room, pretending he was
seasick. There were number OF Mexl-
can officers on board, and he thought
that they had discovered him. He knew
that his arrest meant death, aud he
jumped overheard and tried to swim to
the shore, which was about ten miles
distant from the ship. He was seen and
rescued, and the captain thought he was
a lunatic. He handed him over to the
purser, and this man, though he knew
he could make fifty thousand dollars re-
ward by turning him over to the soldiers,
refused to do so. He protected him
while on board, and smuggled him ashore
as a coal HEAVIER, whence he socn got to
his native State and to his army. Diaz
has proved himself an able general, and
no one can doubt his courage. He is
now sixty years old, but ne does not
look to be over fifty YANKEE Bldde.

Phosphate Rock.

Since the first use of the phosphate
rock discovered in South Carolina it has
furnished large proportion of the phos-
phoric acid used in the manufacture OF
commercial fertilizers. 1t is found in
masses varying from small sizes to frag-
ments weighing hundred pounds or
more and covers considerable area near
Charleston, in that State. More recently
large deposits Of this rock have been dis
covered Ia Florida, thus assuring an APP
parently abundant supply OF one OF the
chief constituents OF plant food at =
cheap cost. The Carolina rock contains
from twenty-five to thirty-two per cent.
of phosporic acid, while the Florida de-
posits, so far as yet known, are more
varying in their composition. To make
the phosphoric acid in bones and phos-
phate rocks more directly available for
plant use they are ground and treated
with sulphuric acid, which combines
with the lime and liberate, the phos-
phoric acid, thus producing what arc
known as supcr.phosphates. es.-Ne1 Yors

Paners in lcsland.

Although Iceland has a population OF
only about 10, 900, the majority Of these
being poor in this worlds goods, yet no
fewer than eight papers are published on
the island. The majority OF these are
printed on excellent paper and with good
letter press, one of them, the Fjallkonan
Mountain Maid), even has an illustrated
literary supplement ASIDE from the To-
cal news, the papers are filled with dis
cussions on political and economic sub
iects pertaining directly to the affairs OF
Iceland. The spirit of the articles are
often extremely, sometimes even often
sivcly, partisan and personal. Not in
frequently the place of the books is oc~
cupied with learned discussion of some
kind. Comparatively little attention is
paid to the ups and downs of European
or American affairs, these being reported
but very briefly. One Characteristic OF
these papers is that almost the entire con-
tents consists of original contributions.
Splendid translations also are quite fire.

ton of Iceland is educated, the number

Foruinq by Electricity.

An exhibition was recently givcn in
Boston by Mr.. George d. Burton. OF
that city, to Professor Van d. Wri1e,
of the Cooper Institute, New YORK;
Doctor William H. Wahl, Secretary OF
the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia;
Mr.. C. +. Robinson, of the Manufacturer
and Builder, of New York, and half a
dozen other men. The exhibition was
of processes of forging and tempering
by electricity of obdurate metals. One
experiment was the melting into liquid
form of a bar of steel an inch in diam
eter and twelve inches long in forty
five seconds, without the temperature of
the room being raised Il single degree
from its normal condition.
Another thing shown was the making
of steel railroad spike. Tue bar is cut
into the required length, the pieces
passed through the electrical machine,
where one end is heated, and then to
a die, which shapes the head on the
heated end, the point being compressd
into shape without heating. Another ex'
hibit was the forming OF an auger
screw, the fiat bar of iron being fas-
tened in the machine at the two ends
and heated almost instantly, and then
twisted into the required spiral by the
automatic turn OF the machine. A little
machine is devised for making spherical
ball bearings, such as are used for BIZ
cycles, etc. While the exhibit was in
progress to-day cablcgram was re-
ceivcd from the Krupp;, the great gun
makers Of Germany, in furtheFaucc of.
negotiations for the rights OF the iu-
vcntion in Germany and other countries
of the European continent.

NorWauian Cheese.

Arranged in a series of little dishes
around us were sardines, sausages, raw
smoked mutton-which is really very
rood-and several kinds of cheese. There
is a terrible kind Of native cheese called
"mysost," which is made of goats milk;
it is brown in color, and served in the
shape OF bricks, done up in silver paper.
The initiated shave this into thin films
and make it into sandwich with black
bread aud butter This cheese is really
made from the whey after proper cheese
has been manufactured. All the water is
then boiled out, and the remainder is
compressed into these brown bricks,
which taste sweet and gritty. Love of
this cheese would take some time to &C
quire; the opportunity is not lacking, for
it appears at every meal, from breakfast
onward. There are several native cheeses.
Another terrible one, "puitost, " is made
with caraway seeds, and always smells
as if it had gone bad. Mysost has no
smell, fortunately, only terrible aspect
and taste. DR.. Julius NicholySon told US
he wanted to send few Norwegian
delicacies to friend in Germany, and
among others he put in a piece of the
native mysost His friend wrote and
thanked him for til" salmon, etc., and
then continued: "The soapis very nice;
but we find great difficulty In making the
lather." This was the cheese !-MarayS
