WESTERN KANSAS.

The western portion of Kansas has
generally been considered as unfit for
agricultural purposes, an impression
that grew out of the failures of crops
in the early years of its settlement from
| lack of sufficient moisture in the ground
and atmosphere to mature the crops.
! Through the persistent and ceaseless eff
forts of the hardy and industrious set
tiers who went out there to secure
! homes the climatic conditions have been
so changed that where few years ago
the great stretch of country was known
and described as desert, now exists a
veritable land of plenty. A notable in
stance of this wonderful transformation
occurs in Thomas county. II. c. Root, a
well known newspaper man of the
northern part of the state, has recently
made a tour of western Kansas, and in
communication to the Atchison Cham
pion gives some authentic data as to ex-
isting conditions out there. Taking
Thomas county for an example he says
there is now in store for each man,
woman anu CGllU III IllO County lH0
enormous supply of 222 bushels of wheat
and rye, exclusive of other grain, which
will bring at present prices S15O.50 for
each person.
This sounds incredible, but it is never
theless true, and similar conditions exist
in many other counties and portions of
the western half of the state. And while
the showing may be little above the
average for series of years, it is a re-
liable augury of the possibilities of that
rich domain under fair conditions, and
these are in large measure insured for
the future by the efficient system of
cultivation in vogue, the growth of tim
Der and the effective and constantly en-
larging system of irrigation. 1t is safe
to say that every foot of Kansas land
susceptible of irrigation will ere long be
brought under cultivation, and its pro-
ductiveness will be limited TO the tact
and energy of those who till the soil.

SENATOR PLUMB roNleHT.

Senator Plumb, the most practical and
comprehensive man in the west, will
make a speech at the Opera House to-
night. Don't fail to hear him. He has
given more profound and successful
thought to the question of national cur
rency than probably any man in public
life, Senator Sherman of Ohio not ex-
cepted So sound have his propositions
been for the enlarging of the volume of
the currency that the jaundiced pluto
Gratis of gold-bound Wall street have
failed of reasonable protest. The lines
and experiences of his life, as well as
his mental makeup have all conspired
to fill him with practical ideas and arm
him with practical methods. These dis
tinguishing traits, supplemented with
his western sympathies and western in
terests impelled one who had served six
years on the same floor to lately observe
that the first man to reach the White
House from the transmississippi would
be Plumb of Kansas. However that
may be, and whether he takes up the
question of the nations money tonight
or not, the other elements in his charac-
ter mentioned will make his speech well
worthy strict attention and close con-

CONTEMPT1BLE ROBBERY.

The EAGLE 4 few pays since took occa
sion to make such a vigorous kick
against the determinations of those ever
changing, tyrranical and irresponsible
organizations known as traffic associa,
tions as brought out some protests. In
charging that railway managers or
owners no longer had any adequate
voice in the direction of those interests
which are of the most vital import to the
railways, and that the interstate COM
mission were but ready tools for the
enforcement of every species of dis.
elimination tending to break down that
competition which is the life of trade, it
was asserted that we had gone too far.
The ink had hardly dried on our paper
when under Chicago date an Associated
Press dispatch announced a new sched-
ule of rates on grain for Missouri, Kan

shipments, but arbitrarily designating

rate to include all points lying east of a
