TIE STRIP.

The announcement in SUNDAYS
dispatches that the Cherokee COM
mission and council of that
nation had arrived at basis
of an agreement for final settlement of
the long disputed question of title in the
Cherokee strip, no doubt caused thrill
of JOY TO those who have been looking
for and desiring the early opening Of
that portion of the territory TO settle
ment. If this action shall De ratified by
congress there would seem TO be nothing
in the way of the strip being declared
open by proclamation from the presi-
dent, and the only contingency that can
be suggested NAV be the difference be-
tween the price per acre agreed upon and
the price, Sl.25 per acre, provided for by
the Fifty-frst congress in creating the
commission. This difference will be but
a small matter, and will not stand in the
way of final contamination Of the agree
ment. because the act of congress ratify-
ing the agreement will Of itself commit

1t is an open secret that the present
congress will strive to make a record for
economy, as compared with the last con-
gress, and to do this it will cut the ap-
preparations to the extent of 800, 600, 900,
at least. In view of this condition that
confronts the country those persons
and communities that have been calcu-
lating on getting money from the gov
eminent through this congress may as
well begin to make other calculations.
Nor will the dominant party stop there,
but will go TO such lengths in the matter
of "retrenchment" q that the next con-
gress viii have to provide for large
deficits for the actual running expenses
of the government But you know the
Democrats must have something on
which TO go before the country next
year

That was a very s2rchin' little squirt of
gushy sentiment the St. Louis furniture
folk wired to Grover Cleveland inform
ing him that they had forwarded by e1-
press a Christmas present for little Ruth
in the shape Of chair. The communi-
cation will no doubt afford a pretext if
not the inspiration for reply from little
Ruth's father embodying a dreary desser-
tation on the tariff. The subject of the
correspondence being gift will naturally
prompt strong free trade response.

1t is stated that fuel gas company is
to be speedily organized in Cincinnati,
with working capital of S2,O00,0O0. 1t
will be operated as branch of the
United States Fuel Gas company and at
the head of it will be ex-United States
Treasurer Huston, who, it is understood,
resigned his position as the head Of the
department of finance to assume the
responsibility of the presidency of this
important concern. Under the patents
it is claimed that the business of manu-
facture can be revolutionized. The COM
pany, it is believed, will operate under
the Harris patents. The question Of
economy in fuel for manufacturing pur-
poses vests this new invention or dis
covery with considerable interest, though
for lighting purposes electricity has sup
planted gas so largely that the latter
does not cut the figure that it once did
as such agency.

HIS LAST WORD FOR WICHITA.

A stenographic report was taken of
Senator Plumbs last speech made in
this city on October 9th, three days be-
fore his fifty-fourth birthday, of which
the EAGLE published two or three col
umns at the time. Omitting the first
half of the speech the report was taken
word for word, the senator saying after
wards that the portion published was
very correct. On our table still lies the
stenographer's report and we will now
make a record of the opening words of
earnest compliment paid this city which
were omitted in the first publication. He
commenced by saying;

An ocular demonstration Of the great

in that locality potatoes that measured a
foot in circumference and ten inches ia

The demand of the Canadian bankers
upon that government for tax upon
United States currency circulated in that
country is quite compliment to our cir
culating medium, especially in view of
the allegation that ours is worth less in
commerce than their own money. But
it will prove great card for the fiat
advocates in this country.

Mr.. Cleveland having authorized a
formal declination of the nomination for
president by his party, it will now be in
order for his champions to proceed to
create an emergency that will demand of
him as duty that he accept the nomi-
nation. This they will do, of course,
and likewise of course he will accept.

What with the war now formally de-
clared between the Crisp and Mills fac
tons in the Democratic party-which is
in reality a Cleveland and anti-Cleve-

Republican victory in 1892 at an earlier
date than was anticipated.

1t is asserted in the most authoritative
manner, says the New Orleans Times
Democrat, that the Ants have entered
into an arrangement or alliance with
the Republicans, whereby the latter
agree to support the state ticket nomin-
ated by the boilers and headed by Muir
ply Foster, in return for which the An
It's are to help the Republicans to get the
eight electoral votes of Louisiana in the
next presidential election. This is alto
gether improbable. The Republicans do
not need to fuse with the antiwing of
the Democratic party Though for the
sake of decency and honesty they might
be justified in doing SOY because the
split in the Democratic party gives
them-the Republicans, the opportunity
to carry the state for their own ticket,
through free vote and fair count,
which the said split would seem to
promise for once in decade.

From the Saturday Evening Post
DIR. Brewer says that the mark Of in
terrogation @ stands for 90 that is,
the first and last letters OF the Latin
word questio, which means question. So,
too, the sign Of exclamation CD "i-o" is
the Latin word 10, an exclamation Of
JOY. Then the mark S IL merely

Owen & Moore the druggists give
ten reasons why hamberlain's Cough
Remedy is the best:
|. 1t will cure a severe cold in less
time than any other treatment.
:. 1t does not suppress cough OF
cold but lOosens and relieves it.
3. 1t relieves the lungs, which is of
great Importance in treating a cold.
4. 1t is the only remedy that will
cause the expulsion of mucus from the
air cells of the lungs.
5. 1t renders the mucus less tena-
ciOus and easier to eXpectorate.
g. If freely used as soon as the first
symptoms appear, it will cure severe
cold in single day.
T. 1t will prevent Group aud avert
all danger and anxiety arising from
that dreaded disease.
S. 1t has cured thousands of cases of
Group, and careful inquiry fails to dis
cover single case in which it has ever
failed.
9. 1t does not contain opium, chic
reform, nor any other injurious sub
stance. There is not the least danger
in giving ii 70 the children.
