THE NEWSPAPER FAKE-ARTIsT.

One of the greatest of nuisances, re-
Gently developed into destructive class
in this world of tensioned energy and
taut emulation, is the fake newspaper
man. So long as his efforts were con-
fined to startling inventions that electri-
fled the land without injuring anybody,
and to unique fictions that always have
large reading among the curiosity hum
tiers, the fake-artist was harmlessly no.
ticeable but not disagreeably in lament
able majority. 1t has become SO that
there are, in a large per cent of the
newspapers, as many denials of news as
there is news, and it is not an uncom-
mon occurrence to wade through a col
umn of appalling intelligence and at the
bottom have it officially denied in two
line paragraph. Our public men are
constantly denying the authenticity OF
words credited to them. The fake-artist
is either becoming flagrantly holder or
our public men deplorably more corrupt
and lnsincere. 1t is more than probable
that it is the fake-artist who is to blame.
There is no remedy for this, apparently
Enterprising papers will get news at any
cost and do not question the authenticity
of scoop" 1t might be well, how
ever, to boycott" the correspondent
who is once caught in the act, The dis
patch in regard to 1Ir. and Mrs. Henry
NJ. Stanley was a malicious fabrication
and has been SO proven. The state of af-
fairs, which is the paradise the fake-art-
list is bringing to perfection, creates dis
trust Of everything in the minds of the
public and instead of making the news
paper a conveyer of information, only
in provoking unenlightened crit
icism and low scepticism which must al
ways be detrimental.

WEATHER FORECAsTs.

Prof. Foster, OF St. Joseph, furnishes
the following concerning the weather

pass through Montana, South Dakota
and eastward along the latitude OF north
ern Iowa and Ohio, and the heaviest
rams, halls, gales and tornadoes will &C
cur south of that line. The storm will
be at its greatest force on the Gath and
25th, when its center will bein the Rocky
mountains, and will gradually decrease
IN force as it moves eastward. The
destructive force of these storms is
usually manifest from 500 to 1000 miles
south of the storm center.
The storm forces will be more evenly
distributed during August, and where
local drouths shall have continued TO the
close of July there will be great danger
of injurious drouths in August. But
these local drouths are not expected to
cover large areas, and will probably be
confined to lands near the sea level.
The storm wave of July to 10 de-
veloped tropical hurricane on the
Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico which
greatly affected the weather in the
United States. have not yet learned
the periods of these tropical hurricanes,
but will repeat that 1912 will bring
more of these dangerous storms than
have been experienced within the
same time for sixty years past, and
they will be awfully destructive during
October of this year Along the coasts
of the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico from
the mouth of the st. Lawrence river,
Canada, TO Central America, the ship
ping interests and coast jewellers will suf-
fer vastly from these hurricanes during
September, October and November, and
whatever can be done to protect life and
property should have immediate atten-
ton. This forecast is not necessarily
sensational, and will be found to be far
short of portraying the serious results
that will come from these great storms.
Whoever will study my forecasts of the
destructive storms of last month, pub
lished in 1890 and early in this year, will
realize that l am not guessing at these
weather events, and | feel it
to be my duty to give serious warning of
dangers ahead. Whoever heeds these
predictions will not regret that they did
SO, and whoever scorns and ridicules
them will see their own folly when it is
too late. These hurricanes will seri-
ously affect the weather and crops in the
United States.

For the EAGLE.
KANSAS,
Where the sunflowers spring from new-broke

Where the sunfowers spring from new-broke
sod,
In obedience to laws known only to God,
Yet charmed by the motion of the sun,
| Follow il from morn It'll its course is run;
Swaying ike willows in soft summer breeze,
Toying, at times. with the branches of trees,
Disseminating seeds its life to renew,
Which are Graded meath leaves, water'd in
dew;
There is our bright prairie Kansas home,
Toward which we turn wheresoe'er we roam;
Sun-brown'd it is as an Indian maiden,
Fresh and fair, wi fruits and grain DER laden.
A kind foster-mother she is TO me,
This fertile plain so broad, so fair and free,
Her mOuntain-fed stream flows On TO tn sea
Thro' fields of green and gold; a happy lea
It's bosom, ne'er shaded by o'erhanging trees
Is warm'd by the sun and cool'd by the breeze;
Then pray that Ceres ever may smile
On the water'd vale of the Kansas Nile.
Until all Kansas, wi banner unfurl'd,
Shall be n&m'd the granary O. the world,
And earth's noisy tongue shall shout our name
Herald our glory and publish our fame.
Until our praise be universally sung,
And rival bells in our honor be rung;
UncrOwn'd kings once, were all jewellers in
Rome,
Thrice crownd are we who hail Kansas as
home.
Where the sunfOwers nod in the breeze,
Towering to the sky like trees,
Where waving blue-stem resembles seas,
And fruit and vine and grain, plenty yield;
There is our happy prairie home,
That calls Us wheresoe'er we roam.

ments, but the work is not so agree
able, and the men and women both
prefer some other kind of labor, IN the
factories or the shops. This sentiment Is
so strong that there is steady move
ment of population from the country to
the city, as the census very clearly dem
onstrated. immigration affords no re-
lief, for very small proportion of the
newcomers work on farms, the laborer
of foreign birth, as soon as he becomes
acquainted with our ways, preferring to
stay about the cities. There is plenty of
work on the farms, where the tens of
thousands of men unemployed and loaf
ing about the cities can find something to
do, but they do not feel disposed to go
there.
The New Orleans Times-Democrat sug-
gests another point in this matter, how
ever, which has been mentioned by us
heretofore, and which, to some extent.
explains the lack of farm labor this year
the very large crops that are being
grown. Unless the present indications
are false the United States will this year
take in the largest amount of money
ever received from its agricultural pro-
ducts, for, with rare exceptions, all our
crops are phenomena1ly good.

OKLAHOMA'S STATEHOOD.

From hope to wild conjectures, from
conjectures to rude plans, from plans to
detiuite purposes have been the success
sive stages Of the statehood question in
Oklahoma. The commingled mass of
ideas are now assuming shape enough to
outline the possibilities and probabilities
of such an event. A new feature that
enters into the discussion is that the
Democratic party will oppose the open
ing Of the Cherokee outlet, because it
will result in large influx of Republi-
cans from the north. just as much as
the citizens prefer individual prosperity
to political party success, SO much do
they desire the opening of the
Cherokee strip before statehood and the
complication OF political schemes that
come with it. The opening of the Chero-
kee strip means more people, more
money and more prosperity and it is ex-
tremely unfortunate that it is to be made
a political matter. Statehood will bring
some perpleXities, the Cherokee strip
none. The citizen of Oklahoma who is
on the right road to success is the one
who tills his soil, sows his grain and
judiciously handles his crop, without
deVoting too much of his thought as to
whether Oklahoma is a state or a terri
tory, which will in no way effect the
yield. Every body should want to see
the Cherokee strip opened. 1t means
great deal. And almost everybody wants
to see the whole territory a state and
called Oklahoma, If politics can be left
out of both Of these momentous ques-
tions, it will be far better for everybody
But the opening of the
Cherokee strip and its settlement should
not be sacrificed to statehood.

THE TIDE WITH TURN

The heavy and continuous shipments
of gold from this country to Europe dur
ing the past six months, and which has
caused an uneasy feeling among mer-
chants and dealers in products, and in
fact, among nearly all classes, is readily
accounted for by the investment of large
amounts Of foreign capital in this coun-
try, the interest and dividends upon
which must be paid stately and in the
universal standard of value, gold. A
common question was "when will this
drainage cease" 1t has now almost
ceased and not only that, but soon the
tide will turn this way. Crop reports
from all parts of this country are very
favorable and in many sections harvest
has begun. Winter wheat has already
been harvested and is beginning to arrive
at eastern markets. There was received
at New York last week 537, 900
bushels, and $4,000 were exported.
Other eastern ports have received
as yet but little of the new crop.
but the yield is large, the quality good
and European prices from 10 to 70 cents
higher than last year, although home
prices are about 3 cents lower. The
question of European demand is now
settled. They must have our supply Of
wheat. Their crops are not yet har-
vested but there is no question about
their general shortage. as the fact that
they are bidding 10 cents higher on
American wheat in the face of heavy
crop, abundantly proves.
With these assurances of demand and
fair prices, our gold will soon flow back
TO this country to widen trade, increase
and put life into business.
All the money which has been taken to
Europe will be needed 10 pay US for i'm
ports and they viii be obliged to draw
on their banks for more. There Is an
other gratifying feature of the situation.
Extreme caution has been the rule with
banks, merchants and manufacturers
for the past year. Business has mar
rowed down, economy has been the
everything has been saved
and nothing wasted and now that W
have reached the turning point all
classes viii be better able to appreciate
and be better fitted TO take
care OF the results.

FARM LABOR

Complaints about lack of hands for
farm work come from central Georgia.
from the west, but particularly from
New England. Good pay awaits the
farm hands everywhere, but they seem
70 be missing or unwilling 10 work
In Georgia il is attributed to a move
ment among the negroes who do not
care to work for the white farmers, but
as the same lack Of hands prevails every
where, even where there are no negroes,
this can scarcely be the true explanation.
The deficiency is greatest in New Eng
land, where the laborers are so few in
numbers as to account largely for the
many abandoned farms IN that section.
The explanation given Is the drift OF
people from the rural districts to the
city. Farm labor with men IS like
domestic service with the women. The
pay Is higher than for other employ

SOUTHERN KANSAS DISTRICT FAIR.

1t is matter for congratulation tina
the organization known as the Southern
Kansas District Fair association is located
near the largest city in the district anC
is in the hands of live men, who know
how to run a fair successfully. Thi.
association was born in adversely, fol
lowing the collapse of an association
that brought much discredit to Wichita
1t was a difficult matter to convince
people from adjoining counties, or re-
siding in the rural districts of Sedgwicb
| county, that the association holding it,
first fair in October, 1889, was not the
same organization that held a fair in
August, 1888. They seemed to think
it was the same old regiment with
new Clothes One breeder of some
note who was defrauded out of his
premiums in SO, told the writer in 'S9
that he would never again show at a
Wichita fair until those premiums were
paid. He was told that he might lust as
well boycott the Seventeenth National
bank for the failure Of the Sixteenth in
which he lost his money-the two banks
being under an entire different manage
ment though occupy the same building.
1t was this kind of prejudice that the
present association has had to encounter
and even today that prejudice is so
strong in the minds of the people that
nuendoes even from some of our leading
@ business men are leveled at the board
of directors. Some men, however. are
never happy unless they are impersonat-
ing Dioganes who spent a fruitless life
searching with lantern for an honest
man. The inference is that the imper-
sonaters unconsciously carry a reflector
IN front of their lantern and preceive
only glimpses of their own character.
Happily the promptness with which all
claims against the present association
have been met, has caused a reaction to
set in, and the man living in an adioin-
ing county, who said he would not show
was actually present with his herd at
the last fair and took away money
enough with him TO compensate for all
former losses and defeats at other fairs.
Last year premiums were paid before
exhibitors left the ground and this is a
feature that will be carried out in the
future without any doubt.
The board of directors are hard AZ
work, and are expending an immense
amount Of energy 10 make this fair

OF this long 10 be remembered season Of
1891. The success or non-success Of the fair

a man is dying at the city hospital Of
Cincinnati of a disease which battles
medical science. He is Dietrich Hager-
man. His disease is an affection Of the
spinal cord, called lepto meningitis. 1t
is always fatal. The cause is unknown,
aud medical treatment is therefore al
most completely Intellectual. The most
extraordinary feature of the dread dis
order is the effect which it has in short
ening the spinal cord and drawing the
sufferer into perfectly rigid state.
Hagerman's head is thrown back as far
as the muscular structure viii permit,
and his back is bent almost like a bow.
All that the physicians can do for him is
TO administer opiates TO lessen his agony.

Emporia Republican,: Minister Doug
lass says he would much rather live in
this country than in Hayti. That seems
to be the idea Of about all our ministers
to foreign powers, and it accounts for
the frequency and length of their fur
loughs." Another and even more strik-
ing exemplifcation of such preference is
had in the case of Minister Blair, who is
and has been for months representing
the United States before the Chinese
government from his home in New
Hampshire. But, after all, the chief
incentive in these foreign offices is the
salary and perquisites attached, without
which the honor of the positions would
have little attraction.
