ENGLAND AS A CUSTOMER.

The Times-Democrat, of New Orleans,
with Great Britain in 1890, and then
brings up the Mckinley bill for inspec-
ton afterwards. 1t seems that of $685.
000, 600 worth of cattle exported, Great
Britain purchased $31 10000; of $685.
600, 900 of corn, Great Britain purchased
half; of wheat and wheat -four, she re-
lieved US of SCI, 000,0 900 worth, or two
thirds of our total export; while of cot
ton and cotton goods, she took consider
ably over half, or Sl49 900, 900 worth.
No reasonable human being can be-
live that the manufacturers of this coun-
try, for whose benefit the Mckinley bill
became law, can possibly step into the
shoes of such customer, unless 1t shall
compel a very large migration of her
people and industries to this side, and if
this is not done that law may force Great
Britain to stimulate the wheat, the corn,
the cotton growing countries of other
parts of the world to unusual and extend
ed operations. Then what are we to do
with our surplus products when the Nc
Kinley bill has forced such customer
to get up the zollverein between England
and her colonies which is now being dis
cussed in parliament? 1t is not an en-
couraging outlook to the raisers of
wheat, corn and cotton, whatever it may
be to any one else, and would be less so
but for the prospects and possibilities of
reciprocity.

ITS BAD ALL AROUND.

Judge PETER had much to say OF the
deplorable condition of the western
farmer, of the financial straits of the
Kansas farmer. All true enough. but
what of the townsman, of the mechanic.
of the tradesman and of the day laborer?
We venture the opinion that the inhabi-
tant of the average western town is
worse off, in every way than the average
farmer. The farmer is carrying his
mortgage-enforced debt and so is the
townsman, but the farmers household
goods are not held by chattel and the
farmer has his meat and bread with all
the employment; he wants even if it is
unremunerative. The townsman all
over the west is simply facing despair.
His trade is dead; his goods are unpaid
for; his shop is closed; those who owe
him cannot pay; his property will not
sell; there is no work; there is nothing
for him except to wait until prosperity
reaches the farmer when values will
again grow and be in the reflex action
finds a chance again to live.

THE STATUS OF THE STRIP.

HARPER, Kan, Feb %, 1891.
To the Editor OF the Eagle.
| will be obliged to you for answering
opinion as TO the time the Cherokee strip
will be declared open to settlement? If
the Cherokees have no title to the strip,
can the government officers lawfully put
settler off of it? Answer in the daily
EAGLE, and oblige, J. c. WARD.
The Cherokee strip question is liable
to be disposed of by March 4, but it may
go ov' year. 1t having been decided
that the Cherokees hold no fee simple in
the strip, there is no way of lawfully re-
straining citizens from entering there
upon, bu. there is an executive and mil
itary way.-ED. EAGLE.

Gen. Caceres, ex-president of Peru, is
perhaps the most iliustrious Peruvian
living. His fame was established by his
suppression of brigandage in Peru, after
he overturned the government of some
rival. The story appearing in the
Atlanta Constitution, however, of his
whipping 1000 Chilians at Tarapaco.
San Juvan and Mira Flow, with only 400
Peruvians, must be a mistake, first, be-
cause he was not in command at that
time, and second, because the Chilians
were not whipped.

The idea Of the publication of text
books for the public schools is losing
ground rapidly. Four years have suf-
feed to convince even the friends of
state publication in California that the
plan isa failure originally, in response
10 an inquiry by the Ohio board of pub
lication, says that he is compelled to ac-
knowledge, with considerable personal
reluctance, the comparative want of
success in the California experiment of
making and publishing school books.
he says the books can be purchased in
the open market at wholesale prices for
less than 1t costs the state to publish
them, and that he would not advise anv
other state TO enter upon the publication
of school books.

away The dogs did their best to protect
the fallen man, but the hogs were too
many for them.
Said a prominent farmer of Cowiey
county, TO the Arkansas City Traveller:
i never knew a wet February to be fol-
lowed by even a partial failure of crops In
Kansas" If this observation is cor, ect
and may be taken as safe guide. the
farmers will do well to put in the few idle
granaries and building new ones in
anticipation OF this years harvest.
Ehe official count of Kansas City, accord,
ing to the Globe, makes the population
l32, 7l6. This includes the unannexed
wards and does not count, as it should,
Kansas City, Kan, which would bring the
population up TO $4,000. which is the
actual population Of the city This makes

The oldest pair of twins in the United
States are believed 10 reside in Atchison
county. Kans. They are Ludwill Rector
Rlngo and his sister. Margaret Ringo
Miller. They were born in the year 1914
in Culpepp-r county. Va. Their father
was OF German nationality, and was u
soldier In the revolutionary war, witness
ing the surrender of Lord c rnwallis at

are direct descendants of Lord Ludwill Of
England.
The South Haven New Era tells of a
young man in Sumner county who, IN
dismounting from broncho ne had been
riding, had his foot caught in the stirrup
and fell on his back This frightened the
pony and it dashed off across the pasture,
crossing creek and running back and
forth from one side of the field TO the
other three times and across the creek each
time; dragging the young man by the foot.
Finally the victim of the broncho's sport
became somewhat fatigup d by the proceed
ing, pulled himself up by. the stirrup

rod home as If nothing had happened.
The young mans name was, perhaps, all
that saved him, it was SO odd. His name

FROM the Kansas City star
A peculiar and fatal accident hap
pened last week 10 man named Dun
ham who lived in kechi township, Sedg-
WICK county. \ farmer named Martin
had killed a number OF hogs which he
left hanging in his yard over night In
the morning one was gone. and in look
ing around for some trace which might
reveal the cause of its disappearance be
n, ticed. short distance from his house.
something strange propped against rail
fence, and on investigation found his
hog hanging by the gambrel stick around
the neck of Durham. The thiefs neck
was broken. and he had evidently been
dead some hours. The supposition is
that while climbing the fence Dunham's
burden had slipped and eau 1ht his head
in the moose formed by the two legs and
the cross stick, and the heavy weight
had instantaneonsly cracked his neck.
There is a good deal Of meat in this item

Judge Bl dgett docs not say in so
many words, in his ruling in the case of
Marshall, Field Sc Co. VS.. the United
States collector of custome at Chicago,
that the Mckinley law is unconstitu-
tional, but he intimates pretty broadly
that he thinks it is. The question will
undoubtedly be presented TO the supreme
court i'll a short time, and if that tribunal
pronounces the law null there will be an
extra session of congress, regardless of
party expediency, or stoppage of the
wheels OF government.

The Atchison Champion wants con-
gress to appropriate from $4,000, 900 to
$50, 900, 900 to test irrigation. 1t thinks
this better than $4,000, coo for a harbor
at Galveston. But the Champion is in
error, viewing the proposition from the
standpoint of available markets for
the surplus crops of the great west
With sufficient harbor and shipping ia
cilities on the gulf coast. the increase in
prices for the farm products the west
would receive for Its marketable sur
plus would be more than enough to sup
ply the deficiency that is likely to exist
IN the districts to be irrigated, as at pres
ent situated in regard to population and
development. If we are to have only
one at time, give rs the farbor facili-
ties first, and that will have the effect of
making the Importance, the necessity for
the other more apparent and pressing,
and thus facilitate its accomplishment.
But why not have both? Uncle Sam is
abundantly able and there is no good
reason why he should not undertake
both enterprises, and at once.

The Newton Republican scouts the
idea that another vote on the prohibi-
tory amendment to the state constitution
would take the question out of politics.
1t might not. But it is a settled fact that
the question will not be taken out of
politics until it is voted Oh again. And
it may be stated just here that that is the
prime reason why ever so many of the

submission. 1t would make OthelIos of
