The RemOnstrance, a little paper
which represents the views of women
who demonstrate against the extension
of the suffrage to women, presents a
summary of suffrage defeats, in the
several legislatures last wear. 1t appears
from this that municipal suffrage bills
were defeated in Main, Minnesota, Mas
sachusetts, California, North Dakota,
Nebraska, Michigan, Illinois, and New
hampshire, while other suffrage propo-
sitions of various kinds were voted down
in the legislatures of Kansas, Arkansas
and Arizona. The only suffrage sue
cess was the passage of school suffrage
bill in Illinois, which was subsequently,
declared unconstitutional. Abroad the
aesults were similar. The British parli-
ament did not reach vote on the gem
eral issue, but 1t defeated bill allowing
women to serve as county councillors.
The legislatures of New Zealand, South
Australia and New South Wales defeat,
ed bills giving parliamentary suffrage

George T. Anthony, of course, was re-
elected railroad commissioner The Wich-
tia EAGLE and few other rustic sheets
seem greatly pleased. In the meantime
the railroad commissioners will not be
troubled hunting power to make roads
running in and out of Kawsmouth operate
trains.-kansas City GaZettee.
Yes, the EAGLE, and ''a few other
rustic sheets" are greatly pleased, and
not alone at the reelection of Mr. An
thony, but also at the assurance the
Gazette gives that business at the kaws-
mouth will continue without serious in
terruption. From the fight made on the
commission and it anti-discrimination
order the impression was given out that
unless the order was rescinded the rail
roads Of the state would be forced to
cease operations from lack of business.
The Gazette's assurance who indicates
that the Missouri wholesalers have de,
cided to content themselves with a
smaller per cent. of profit on what goods
they sell in Kansas hereafter rather than
quit business altogether. Yes, the "rus-
tic sheets" are gratifed.

This talk about a new constitution with
out pointing out wherein the old one fails
TO do the work does not count for much.
with equal force 1t would appear that the
very same argument against the United
States constitution might be made, yet no
one suggests new constitution because
the present one is old.-Newton Repub-
licap.
The point of comparison is not well
taken. If the federal constitution had
not been amended in fifteen instances it
would be as much out of time and tune
with the present as is the state conslitu-
ton, and the demand for new one
would be as universal and imperative
throughout the country as is that now
pending in Kansas.

Congressman Durborrow's bill appro-
priating $15, 900 for the introduction of
reindeer into Alaska is worthy of the
careful attention of the worlds legisIa-
tors. The Chicago News recently pre-
sented the views of the distinguished
traveller, Paul B. Du Chaillu, on this
subject. He believes that the national
government could easily stock Alaska
with these useful animals, thereby pro-
viding the people at once with food and
transportation of excellent quality. With
the reindeer that country might increase
rapidly in wealth and population. And
this brings to mind the scheme proposed
year or two ago by one of Kansas dis
tinguished citizens for securing from the
government a large tract in No.Man's-
Land upon which to establish park for
the purpose of breeding and perpetual
ing the buffalo species. Praiseworthy
though the object was it nevertheless
proved abortive, as the Alaska reindeer
scheme will, no doubt.

Death of a Remarkable Freak.

On March 90 there died at Wharton,
O., one of the most remarkable of crea-
lures, an Infant aged 80 years. The
child, or young man, was the son of
Austen Burden, and during all the years
of its life was nothing more than mere
baby, 1t developed in no respect, and
died in its cradle. 1t could neither talk,
walk or recognize any one, and was as
helpless when it reached its manhood as
the day it was borne. Doctors were
completely baffied and could do nothing,
and for twenty-nine years its death has
been patiently awaited.

Emporia Republican: IF records
count for anything the Republican party
will enter the campaign this year with

than that of Benjamin Harrison the

stitute a stronger platform upon which
TO go before the country for endorse
ment than any amount or character of
promises, further than to continue IN
the same line of good work.

There is no denying that farmers ex-
pected better prices for wheat, IN view
of the unprecedented shortage in Europe,
than have been realized this year. Why
have they been disappointed? Because
their hopes were built on foreign mar
ket They forgot that, unlike the home
market, the foreign market is open to all
corners on equal terms SO India was on
hand with her wheat too. She exported
more than double the quantity in 1891
that she exported in 1890, and so de-
pressed prices. Another ungetoverable
proof of the vulue of the home market

wICHITA's WORD TO THE WORLD.

Watch the EAGLE. Its columns are an
unfailing index of Wichita, a sure re-
Hector of the city's every conceivable in
terest. Its advertising columns, being
unsolicited, never fail of telling the ex-
act condition of its business affairs, no
less than do its local and editorial col
umns mirror the towns other numerous
activities. The advertisers are branch
ing out. That's plain to be seen. No
body disputes business revival. The
weekly bank clearings are regularly
showing an increase of late of from 10
to 25 per cent. over last year. They will
soon be 90 per cent. greater. There are
hundred indications of growth and
prosperity to every one found a year ago.
And not only are old business interests
enlarging and additional old and new
lines being added, but the city is increas-
ing in population. There is prosperity
ahead or every sign must fail, surest of
which signs is the universal confidence
that is so manifest.

Why They Dislike the Champion.

From the Atchison Patriot
Some Republicans who don't like the
Champion are talking about starting
another morning paper, but its only talk.
Last year they made the same sort of a
bluff. Republican politicians only need
paper during the campaign, and as it
takes whole lot of money to start one
and run it. the probabilities are that the
Champion will remain the only morning
paper III Atchison. Colonel Challiss is
in the habit of saying what he thinks,
and that is why the disgruntled element
dislike the Champion.

Good Points for Farmers.

From the Atchison Champion.
Small farms usually pay best because
as rule the small leaks are stopped on
them better. On large farms these small
leaks some not so small. either are usu-
ally considered not of much consequence,
but when we come to put them together
We find large hole in our profit. Let
any one think over this and he will find
leaks enough to surprise him. Farmers
who are CRYING farming don't pay"
either have not the means or the ability,
or maybe lack both; but by far the most
are trying TO spread too much.
