CHEAP FUEL.
o the Editor Of the Eagle.

To the Editor Of the Eagle
We often hear the question asked,
''Wby is it that we have no more manu-
factories in our city" The answer gen.
orally given is, I'VE can't get cheap fuel "
We must infer from this that cheap fuel
Is necessary requisite to the manufactur-
ing industry. This, as a matter of fact, is
true. There are, however, other reasons
that make it difficult for our home indus
tries to exist. One OF these is the disad-
vantage under which we labor in respect
to freight rates. We can never make a
success in manufacturing here so long as
we have to pay such exhorbitant freig
rates. Give us the rate that we ought 10
have and deserve. and there is no difficulty
in this becoming a manufacturing center
To be sure, we would not be able to pro-
duce everything we need for either home
or local consumption, but there are natu-
raj manufacturing industries which are
adapted TO almost every locality.
Then, again, we need elevators. Wichita
is situated in the very heart of one of the
best, if not the best, agricultural districts
in the great southwest. Shall we let our
sister city just across the river euchre US
out of handling the grain that naturally
belongs to us-by establishing elevators IN
some of the border towns to the south OF
us? That's just what she is figuring on
now. 1t is a shame that men should be so
wrapt up in the quintesseuce Of selfishness
as TO be blind TO anything and everything
but that which will bring an immediate
income to their own pocketboOks.
Referring again TO our text, have we
coal beds near enough to warrant the
statement that with a reasonable rate, we
might and would have cheap fuel2 To
those who are acquainted with the geogra-
ply of this state and the territory to the
south an answer in the affirmative is not
necessary.
With abundant coal beds IN the eastern
part of our own state and large beds to
the south, there can be no legitimate
reason why we should not have cheap fuel

WICHITA AIDS THE BUCKEYE.

Sedewick Pantag raph:-Wichita and
Sedgwick county are ever on the alert to
get in ahead of the other fellows, and they
invariably accomplish their object. Tues
days dispatches announced that the grass
hoppers were devouring the crops-of all
kinds-in the vicinity OF Findlay, Ohio,
and that afternoon Wichita citizens tele-
graphed the mayor Of Findlay Offering
assistance to the needy, and incidentally
remarking that Sedgwick county alone
could supply provisions enough and feed
enough to appease the hunger OF every
citizen and head of stock in the Buckeye
state. Its an exceedingly cold day when
Wichita lets an opportunity of this kind
slip by without taking advantage Of it.

Yesterday the EAGLE received from the
farm of Mr.. j. a. Maddy, of Sumner
county, two and half miles north of
Mayfield, a sample box of evaporated
fruits Of his own putting up. The samples
embraced peaches, apples, plums, apricots,
cherries, etc, and will rate, in quality, up
to the best seen in the market. We find
pleasure in making mention of such enter
prses as this, and in commencing them to
others 1t is conceded that this year S
fruit crop is the finest, in quantity and
quality, the state has ever raised. And it
is almost phenomenal how the prices have
kept up, in view of the immense crop and
scarcity of money. And yet, in spite of the
good demand and fair prices thousands of
bushels will GO to absolute waste
because of the inability of the rails
ers to gather and haul to market.
high freight rates, and what not.
We are not advised rs to whether Mr.
Maddy has marketed any fruit from his
farm this season or not, but naturally pre-
sumo he has not, bnt has put in all the
time he could gathering and evaporating
it and thus not only saving it from waste,
but enhancing it in value and putting it
in condition to be kept conveniently until
such time as the demand for it will insure
him ready sale and good prices. The cost
of putting up an evaporator of sufficient
capacity to save all the surplus fruit on
the average farm is not over $50, and such
an evaporation will save several hundred
dollars worth of fruit in one season, and
is good for almost indefinite service In
view of all these facts, and others that
might be stated, it is next to inexplicable
that so few persons in this great fruit
avail themselves of this simple
and expensive means of saving their most
profitable and inexpensive crop.

gossips who, by an unwise provision in
the makeup of human nature, add con-
fusion to the already unlucky state of
bewilderment the contracting parties are
in. If you have ever been married and
have started to live down that act in your
native town, you will understand this.

OF course, this is not true of every mar
ried couple. There are some who escape
the tea table calumny and syllabub de-
famation of local society. There is refuge
in some distant place, where both man
and wife are unknown and free from the
tongues of past acquaintance and the
! ghosts OF former sins Here is a place,
where the most intimate have nothing bad
| to forget about you and all your virtues to
magnify. This couple is invulnerable.
Then, too there is a refuge in not being
known in your own town, where while the
mention of n mesalliance would excite
curiosity among your nearest neighbors,
it would not spread rapidly and be conse-
quently a fiat failure as a piece of gossip.
And if you are old, very old when you
marry, people are not so apt to nag you
about the chaotic condition of affairs in
your new home. Still, this very frequently
happens as witness the gossips in
their recent attempt to part Mr.
and Mrs. Henry Stanley, who
over their own signature had to
enter an emphatic denial, but that they are
living in the most approved manner of
happy love and married cOntentment.
There are many who miss the lurid delec-
tation of being divorced without legal
process, but as a general custom it is COM
plete. If you are newly married and live
among your acquaintance and people who
recognize you quicker by the clothes you
wear than your countenance, rest assured,
1t has been whispered that you were I'M
happy and were going to be divorced. If
you haven't heard it yourself, your friends
are, in all likelihood, good enough not to
tell Won.
