Just now the medical world is en. gagged in discussing the new device for deafness called Sound Disc. No inven- ton of late has attracted SO much in. terest among the medical profassion. Its perfection, which is now an eetab- lished fact, has resulted in the over throw of many pet theories of the being no relief for Q vast number of caees of deafness.
 This ingenious discovery was made by H. A. Wales, of Bridgeport, Conn.,, and coming as it does with the approval of some of the leading Aurists of the world it can hardly fail to prove of great value to both the profession and the afflicted.

FARMERS MAKING A MISTAKE.

1t would seem that glance at the re-
ports of the Wichita markets was only
necessary to convince any one that the
farmers of south Kansas are doing an
unwiSe thing. Large numbers of half
grown hogs, mere pigs are being thrown
onto the market at prices ranging from
50 to $50 per hundred, with first-class
hogs bringing from S. to $50, or almost
double the price. AS the EAGLE said
last week, this is penny wise and
pound foolish" business that no farmer
can possibly afford. Hogs are hogs now.
They are on the rise. The conditions of
the world markets warrants the asser-
ton that for year or two, or possibly
three, the raising of hogs will be profit
able. One of the oldest and most expe-
rienCed buyers in the west SAYS that
hogs will not only hold the present price
for eighteen months or two years. but
that they will advance in price, even
should France and Germany both fail to
open their markets TO American meats.
The selling of stockers and half-devel-
OHCo pas llSASiO1O IL ciliiplN III u" lilS
good and sure money away.
Even if stock hogs brought
in the markets the same price per
pound 1t would be mistake TO sell them.
To increase the number of his pigs
should now be the aim of every hog
grower at least for a year or two, or
until the demand fails and prices COM
mence TO recede. What is true of the
Wichita markets is true of Chicago,
Kansas City and St. Louis. The half
grown pig commands no adequate price
while the developed porker brings big
money.
South Kansas is the best hog country
IN the world. The texture of the meat
Is superior and the Kansas pig IS worth
more IN even Kansas City than the
Missouri product. Immunity from
disease. because of altitude and rare dry
atmosphere and the superior excellence
OF south Kansas corn produces superior
hogs. and now that there is TO be a
profit IN his production every farmer
who Is in the business should hold on
10 his stockers, increase the number of
his pigs and sell only the fully developed
and highest priced animal.

A STORY WITH A MORAL.

There is story of a woman who used
to make it rule always to kneel in a
certain place in the church on sunny
Sundays. At certain point in the SER
vice "the sun would reach an angle with
the stained glass window and cast pale
golden light across her head, making an
aureole about her sweet, devout face.
By and by the light would shift to red.
This generally happened during the ex-
hortation, and finally, at the close of the
service, when the pastor was promising
that he who conquered should be crown
ed proud, resolute uplifting of that
woman's head brought her just under
the shadow of the robe worn by the
centurion in the window, and the purple
of victory fell slanting across her pretty
blonde head"
Now, while the EAGLE does not urge
any false representations or undue effort
in order to produce good impression,
for the reason that such line Of policy is
neither expedient nor profitable in the
end, it would urge upon all Wichita the
Importance of taking advantage Of the
favorable light under which she is being
viewed now almost daily by men who
can aid in making her the greatest city
in the great new southwest. If she
would wear the purple of victory, Wich-
tia must encourage every enterprise that
promises to advance her interests, and
extend to every protector of an enterprise
the right hand of fellowship.

COL. ANTHONY ASSAULTED.

Fortescue, an ex-mayor of Leaven-
worth, was a candidate again this spring
and Col. Anthony opposed him, bitterly
attacking his former record. On Tues
day or Wednesday Of this week Fortes-
cue came upon Anthony at street
corner and asking him if he was armed
attacked him with loaded whip-stock.
The Emporia Republican, in the follow
ing comments, seems to rise up to the
situation correctly:
''The assault upon d. r. Anthony, OF
Leavenworth, by young and vigorous
man, no matter what the provocation,
was cowardly and brutal. Col. Anthony
is 81 years old, is partially paralyzed and
is so afflicted with rheumatism that he is
unable to dress himself. If he had
slandered and villified Fortescue, as the
latter claims, the courts were open and
redress could have been found there.
Ruffianism is not bravery"

KANSAS NOT IN 1T.

The great commercial congress which
the legislature of Republican Kansas
called to meet in the state of Missouri
for the benefit of the southern free trade
Democrats, while drunk resolved in IA
for of every conceivable policy and pro-
position, but after SOLDERING up gave the
Republican party Hail Columbia all the
way from the lakes to the Rio Grande.
The state of Kansas, nor a single inter-
est that she demands or boasts, were
heard of, while her representatives cut
about as much figure as would red hot
herd of pissants in a round up of Texas
steers. They were not in it. This politi-
cal jamboree which was instituted to
down non-party organization of three
years standing that had shown Kansas
great consideration, beloved till their
bellies ached, for free trade,sfor every
body, for slack water and canals for the
middle and lake states, for deep water
and ship navigation for the gulf states,
ard free silver for the mountain states,
but did not so much as whistle for the
Kansas boobies who had arranged the
bombastic boom.

causes OF THE DEPRESSION. y

From the Topeka Capital.
The commercial congress wastes time
in trying to explain the causes of "the
present agricultural depression" With
corn, wheat, hay, steers and hogs bring
ing prices that will make the average
Kansas farm pay so per cent on the in
vestment, it is difficult to imagine that
q merchant in Kansas would Jump at
the chance to exchange his business Just
now for hundred acres of land and as
many cattle and hogs. The average
actual ascertained value of the farm
products of the state for last four years
was SAC, 900, 900, or 81 an acre for the
entire area under cultivation or in hay.
These years made up the period of de-
preston. For the eastern part of the
state the average value of the products
of the last four years was probably not
far short Of double the average for the
state
These were the results under the low
est prices that have obtained for years,
With prices 100 per cent higher on near
ly all products, the farmer who this year
complains of an agricultural depression
has very luxuriant imagination.

GREAT CRY, LITTLE WOOL.

From the Emporis Republican
The commercial congress at Kansas
City appears to have Democratic pre-
ponderance. Leading Republicans are
conspicuous chiefly on account of their
absence. The prominent men in attend.
ance are Democrats. The consequence
is Likely to be that, after considerable
random discussion, a series of Democratic,
Alliance resolutions will be adopted,
condemning as sectional and class-serv-
ing the Republican policy which has
built up the country during the past
twenty live years, and demanding free
trade and other political buncombe. The
gathering does not possess the represent
ative character the public was led to sup
pose. 1t turns out that of the thirty-one
states invited to participate less than
half are represented, and number OF
these unoffcially. The conception and
plan of the congress were plausible and
commendable enough, but it seems TO
have become imperfect, one-sided and
partisan IN the execution. The organi-
cation. general makeup and the proceed
ings and discussions thus far, appear 10
warrant this view.

of local streams that intervene, with
comparative small cost there is no doubt;
in fact, routes have been surveyed and
ths scheme ascertained to be entirely
feasible. But there is another side to the
question. During the major part of the
wear the Tennessee affords barely
enough water to keep its navigation open
and if the quantity of water necessary
to make the proposed canal cutoff a
success were drawn from the river, that
stream would he valueless for boating,
and all of the vast area of country
traver5ed by the lower Tennessee and
which is dependant upon it entirely for
transportation facilities would be cut off
from the markets of the country and
thus great injury would be wrought.
In view of this state Of case there
is not much doubt that the large inter-
ests involved, both along the lower Ten
nessee and the markets of the Ohio and
upper Mississippi rivers would combine
and combat the undertaking to the ut
most. The question of riparian rights Is
involved in the proposition to sufficient
extent, undoubtedly, to prevent its con-
Summation. The case is altogether dis
similar to the Hennepin canal and some
other like enterprises.

On the question of the protective com
mercial policy of the United States, the
Wichita EAGLE is training with the rear
column Of the Democratic party, the
leaders of which no longer advocate free
trade per Sc. On other questions Of public
policy, the EAGLE expresses itself intelli-
gently and forcibly, but on this it is
cranky "-Marion Times.
AS to its intimation that the EAGLE is
cranky, the esteemed Times reminds us
very forcibly of the fellow who went
home one evening, and staggering into
the house exclaimed to his wife: COZ
oman, (hic) nev'r re like in m life: ev'ry
man (hic) met on street as SO drunk
(hic) e couldn't walk straight" If the
Times is too blind to see, and too deaf to
hear the popular trend and demands of
the hour it is to be pitied, though we
presume it is nobody's fault.

Whatever may be said in criticism OF
the Alliance as political movement
and there is certainly room for much
that has been said-the declaration of
Col. Livingston, president of the Georgia
Alliance, in regard to the proposed
third party movement, wherein he as
serts that until the two parties now in
existence refuse our people any encour-
agement or recognition, an attempt to
create a third party is unnecessary,
hazardous and unwise," will be accepted
by all fair-minded people as a timely,
practical and common-sense statement of
the situation. 1t cannot be successfully
met by argument or logic; it is a terse
statement of fact that those who are in
clIned to follow the third party ignis
fatuus will do well to stop and consider.

The steamship companies which pour

They transport them for SO much money

naturally, they dislike the immigration
law, which has imposed upon them a
certain degree of responsibility with re-

Since the death of 2. I. Barnum many
little incidents in his career as a show,
man have been brought TO light that st
TO prove that, while he conducted his
show business largely upon the principle
indicated III his famous remark that the
American people love to be humbugged
would pay their money more literally
for humbug than for something of gen.
uine worth and merit, ne was still pos
sessed of fine sense of human SYM
pathy, and especially that he was always
ready to please the childen. 1t is related
that once little boy wrote to him that
he was sick in bed, and would like to see
the circus parade. Barnum at once
ordered the parade to go four blocks out
of its way in order to give the boy a
chance to see it. 1t was big thing for
the boy.
