Teaching the Child to Talk.

THE MOVING CAUSE.

Chicago's success in securing the ma
tional Democratic convention implies a
good deal more to that city than appears
upon the surface, and in substantial
way-more than to any other place. The
worlds fair people want more help from
the government, more money from the
treasury, and since the Democratic con-
vention is to be held there that party
viii be much more generously inclined
toward it. In addition to the benefac-
tions it will receive from the source and
on theaccount indicated, the city will be
able to get as much benefit out of the
convention itself as could any other city,
not excepting Milwaukee. The moving
consideration with the committee in
Sc Getting Chicago was, unquestionably,
the thought that the only time their
party has succeeded in electng its can
didate for president for third of a CEN
fury was when the nomination was
made in that city. The party has come
to regard the city by the lake as its mas
cot. Meanwhile, poor Kansas City! the
tureen is covered with inside.

TOO GREAT ESTIMATE.

From the Winfield Tribune Derl
We are not SO certain about it. For time
we were of the opinion that the summit of
Marsh Aiurdock's ambition was to run the
best paper in Kansas, WHICH is bigger posi-
ton than the governorship. Lately, however,
the EAGLE has been filled with complimentary
notices OF Marsh's fitness for gubernatorial
hoI ors, which looks little suspicious. But
he Is OVERRIDING the thing. Great men are
rarely selected for executive positions. Henry
Clay, Dan, Webster, and other notable men,
were always spoken of and admired but they
never got there. 1t is all right to indulge the
boys in their complimentary talk, but stick to
the EAGLE, Marsh, and let some of the small
politicians play governor of Kansas.

If anything We're lacking to convince
the people of this congressional dis

favorable To the idea Of fusion with the
Democrats this year in the national
contest, at least. the declaration of Jerry

Thursday certainly supplies the de-
ficiency. \ short time ago Jerry had
nothing but contumely for the poor

those endearing terms 10 the Democrats,
but now be is trying to smother them
win compliments and choke them with
taffy. Flattery is wonderfully effec-
tive lever in the hands of one who
knows how TO manipulate it, and Jerry
is pretty clever IN that role.

ED1soWs NEW MODE OF WARFARE.

The pending imbroglio between this
country and Chill invests with especial
interest preparations for open hostilities,
defensive as well as offensive, and in
view of the incomplete preparations for
defense at many points where attacks
are liable to be made in case of war, that
feature of preparation is of uppermost
concern to such localities and contigu
GUS country. As if specially designed
for points not provided with adequate
means of defense, Mr.. Edison, the cleo
trical wizard, has perfected plan for
the utilization of electricity as an engine
of warfare that is entirely new and
novel. The invention, for such it is, is
intended only for defensive warfare, and
is described by Mr.. Edison as fort filed
up with alternating electrical machinery,
the current of which is to be directed on
the attacking enemy by a stream of
water played through a powerful hose.
Mr.. Ed son thinks the virtue of this
means of defense to be that the enemy
can by this means be shocked out of the
world altogether, or the current can be
modified so as to merely knock the adj
vancing foe senseless, after which
the electrical operators could go
out, resuscitate and gather them
in as prisoners of war. Twenty-Five
men would be adequate, Mr.. Edison
asserts, to defend fort provided with
this electrical appliance against whole
army, if it should come within range of
its acknowledgement streams.
But there are always critics of the in
ventions of geniuses, and the proposition
of the wizard to shock the daylights out
of any who may dare to attempt the in
vasion of Uncle Samuel's dominions finds
one in the Pittsburg Dispatch. The Dis
patch refers to Mr.. Edison's invention as
follows:
Let us suppose fire engines of sufficient
power to throw streams of water two or
even three hundred feet are provided. What
if the enemy should decline to come so
close? What if the invading general should
be mean enough to sit down two, three or
five miles away and fire eight or ten-inch
shells at the fort? Might there not be dan
ger of the electric apparatus becoming dis
arranged under such circumstances, and
conveying its deadly alternating current
into the bodies of the twenty-five de-
tenders?
Mr. Edison's system of warfare is a good
deal like the clowns method of killing
tieas, by first catching them and then pry
ing their mouths open to administer the
poison The arsenal of modern warfare is
chuck full of methods for killing the enc

CLEVELAND AND JACKSON.

From the Capitol
But if Mr.. Cleyelands veneration for
qhe father of the Democratic party seems
somewhat puZzling and inconsistent, his
fulsome praises of Andrew Jackson are
ridiculous. jackson was grand Ameri-
can figure. He was a fighter in every nerve
and fibre of his body. He was an Ameri-
can always and everywhere But he had
no use for Mr.. Cieveland's mugwump
notions. He believed with a mighty faith
in the spoils system and his Kitchen
Cabinet" would have given Mr.. Cleveland
a violent patriotic spasm and called forth
one of his longest and most complex
literary effusions on the necessity for
civil service reform. As an advocate of
the Mckinley idea of protection General
Jackson stood in the front ranks in his
day and generation. He had no more use
for free trade than small boy in swim
ming has for an alligator. The following
paragraph written by Jackson in 1924 reads
like a speech of Read or Mckinley:
This tariff mean a judicious one
possesses more fanciful than real dangers

agriculturists Where has the American
farmer a market for his surplus products:
Except for cotton he has neither IA foreign
nor a home market. Does not this clearly
prove, when there is no market either at
home or abroad, that there is too much
labor employed in agricultural, and that
the channels of labor should be multiplied

remedy. Draw from agriculture the

There was funny scene at Tootle's
opera house in st. Joe night before last.
Eight Bells" was being presented, and
at the end of the first act, the curtain
refused to go down, nor could it be made
to go down. Those who participated in
the climax finally walked off the stage
and the scenery for the next act was
arranged in full sight of the audience.
This was continued throughout the
piece, and those in the audience saw
how all the special scenery was put up.
This proved to be an interesting inno-
vation and furnished amusement for
the audience for the time that is usually
the dull interim between acts.

strength There is A widespread feeling that
