PLUMB's VIEWS OF THE SITUATION.

Senator Plumb, who has already made
a very borough canvass of the state,
thinks the Republicans twill gain % per
cent of the Alliance vote of the state.
One thing that strengthens US is the Re-
pubIicans everywhere are justifying
themselves and their party on stronger
grounds than they ever did before.
do not believe the Alliance will carry
slick and clean more than half as many
counties as they carried last year" In
an interview published in the Topeka
Capital he expresses this idea of the
ultimate tendency of the Alliance upris-
ing:
Il think this whole perturbation
througl out the country is going to drift
into the Henry Geor idea, that all ine-
qualities are To be eXtinguished in a sin
gle-tax millennium of perfect happiness
and conteutment. The Alliance farmers
do not believe in the subtreaSury and
land loan schemes. These heresies are
not in it. They are recognized as too alb
surd and extraragant by the Alliance
men themselves. But when these are
discarded. unless the whole party falls To
pieces all at once, something like Henry
Georges scheme will come out of it.
Now, the trouble with Us in Kansas is
precisely what happened to the whole
country at the time OF the panic of 1887.
the worst panic we ever had in this
country, and the remedy Is nor sub
treasures or single tax. II 1885 and
along there our people had gone viO-
lentIk into speculation, SO much SO that
productive pursuits were neglected and
toroaken, and we had to actually import
our food products. Here III kanSas.
aloHg I'm 1886 s, we went into speculation
IN The same wild and insane way, con-
Iracting all kinds of obligations. and AT
the same time our crops failed and we
were caught at both ends when the in
fiatIon collapsed. Our people ia the Al
hance forget all this and only consider
that some men in the cities are rich.
while thev on the farm are poor, and
they are locking for some scheme Of

The victory that will come to the Re-
publican party in Sedgwick county in
the election of its county ticket next
Tuesday will be cause for rejoicing to
every true and loyal member of the
party, for the reason that it will be a
triumph of truth and honesty over error
and deception. Never was there en-
ployed more underhanled, dishonest,
hypocritical methods to compass the de-
feat of a ticket than have been and still
are being put forth to down the Repub-
licans. In S me instances it amounts to
open personal persecution, and deserves
to be rebuked, as it will be next Tuesday
by the election of the Republican ticket
from bottom to top.

a PATRIOTIC DUTY.

From the Ssiina Republican
Kansas has been developed with won
derful rapidity. Il has been developed
By western energy coupled with eastern
capital. The miraculous growth Of the
state is the product of the two combined
Both were absolutely essential. The
men who are crying the loudest against
capital and wailing over the hardships
Of the farmer are men who have con-
tributed nothing to the development of
the state either in capital or energy.
They have been non-prodUcers in every
respect. Not one Of them has promoted
a single industry. They have not even
failed because they had neither the cour
age nor energy 10 undertake anything.
The work they have done has been
that which the blIe necessities Of life
has driven them TO. and now after
thirty years of struggle by the indomit-
able energy Of an industrious people
these plains have been transformed from
a desert to fertile fields and farms.
These men who have been dTones and
cOmplaIBers are now Using tie influence.

conyultlon, to destroy the credit which

WHAT MosBAcHgR WOULD DO.

The great plea of the Cone gang is
that MOsbacher is such popular fellow
in town, and that Republicans will vote
for him because they personally like him.
For the same reason a man would vote
for his grandmother or for his sister.
Not personal likes, but principle and
party interests ought to weigh with
every man who has an ounce of brains
in a contest like this. Personal friend
ship is commendable but it is an unrea-
sonable thing on which to Ease party
vote. A personal friends views when
carried out in politics may prove very
detrimental to your personal interests,
which is almost sure to be the case
where that personal friend is politically
opposed to you.
Charley Mosbacher, with all his per-
sonal friendships, is dead set against the
Republican party Of Sedgwick county
and would use his office and powers
against every interest and institution of
the Republican party without regard to
the Republican friends who voted for
him out of friendship. Nobody could
blame him for that. 1t would become
his political duty to fight the party of
the personal friends who foolishly helped
to put him in position where his fight
would count.
Away with such friendship nonsense.
1t is the duty and ought to be the pride
of every Republican in the county to
vote for Ike Ault.
The Wichita daily eagle., 1891-10-28

The attempts OF the market street
Democratic g ringmasters to make it
appear that Republicans are proposing
to trade part of their ticket to save the
balance, are but the futterings of the
dove to mislead and deceive. They
know that everybody knows of their dis
reputable trickery and scheming in that
direction, and they are beginning to re-
alize that their skullduggery is creating
q feeling of disgust, and in order to di-
vert attention they raise the cry of stop,
thief. 1t will deceive nobody; nor will
it cause any true Republican to scratch
as good a ticket as the party ever NOM
mated, and incomparably better than
any other in the field.

IKE AUL p TROUBLE.

The street offers to bets are now that
Judge Rec will have more votes than
both of his opponents and that Ike Ault
will carry the city by handsome plural
ity. Ault never had but one trouble to
encounter, and that has been his own
modesty. He is most too quiet and diff
dent for candidate for political Office
where brass and impudence count for so
much. In spite of his shy ways, the peo-
pie are finding out that as the Republican
nominee he is not only worthy, but that
It's an executive officer he will have the
stamina of General Grant, finding out
that better man could not have been
chosen for sheriff by the convention.
Personal popularity among the hurrah
boys of the town is one thing but sterling
qualities as man is quite another, and
no one pretends to deny Mr.. Ault being
a man IF sterling qualities.

administration of the Russian govern

A VALUABLE SPOT.

A week or two since the EAGLE pub
lished statement composed of verified
facts and figures showing what had been
done in five years in the way of convert
ing raw piece of prairie near this city
into fruit farm, which statement has
been published far and wide.
Yesterday we were given the figures
for another piece OF land in the north
central portion of this county which are
worth recording. Four men own the
section of land out of which the town
site of Mt Hope was taken. The town.
site covers 140 acres, leaving in the sec
ton for cultivation just five hundred
acres, which are owned in equal parts by
T. j. Randall, county commissioner; J.
P. Mccormick, Samuel Maxwell and A.
j. York. From this five hundred acres
was harvested this year the following
amounts and kinds of grain by the indi-
viduals named, viz:
Randall: Corn, LAO: Rye, 800: Oats, 800
Mccormick: Corn, 1850; Wheat, 2, $50; Oats. 325
Maxwell: Corn, 2,2J0: Wheat, 1000: Oats, $50
York: Corn, 1900; Wheat, 1891; Oats, 2j0
Total bushels of grain ......... ....15. .6s2
Total value of grain on 500 acres ........S 1856
Or nearly two thousand dollars to each
of the four farmers in grain alone, each
of whom has orchards, gardens, live
stock and the usual variety of produc-
tions found on the farms in this valley.
