A BEETLE EuE1ED IN IRON.
One of the Most Interesting Mineral
specim IN Existence.

One of the Most Interesting Mineral
specime ems in Existence.
Our fellow citizen, q. 7. White, says
the Ell raso Bcllion, is the owner of
What we believe to be the most interest
ing insect and mineral specimens in
existence. Some months ago Mr.. White
was presented with specimen taken
from considerable depth IN the Long
fellow mine OF Clifton, A. I. When the
specimen in question was fractured,
Lcetle of dull reddish gray was disclosed,
surrounded by closely fitting mould of
i-on ore; in fact, the beetle lay in state
as perfect as in lie, in it's sarcophague
of iron.
Naturally very much impressed with
his acquired property, Mr.. White has
tened to envelope it in. piece of cloth
with the view Of conveying it to his
cabinet. On his way, however, he bed
orcasion to examine the interesting
SIP cimen and his surprise may be better
imagined than described when he per-
ceiyed young beetle slowly emerging
from its dead parents body, and IN
eve,y characteristic resembling it, bar
r;pg Ire fact that it was smaller.
AIthe time Mr.. White called the at

vorpg | :etle was put under glass by
its owner. 1t continued to prosper and
ircrease in dimensions, and lived for
five whole months. The specimen, the

MAKE NO TRADES.

Make no trades with anybody on
election day. We have got every
thing unless you trade your votes.
Republicans will be very ANXIOUS, in
Simpsons district for instance, to
trade the electoral or state ticket for
votes for Long; and IN other places
they will want to trade for votes for
local candidates. They know they
cannot carry the state or electoral
ticket and will trade that which they
know is already lost for something
they hope to gain, whenever they can
find a man fool enough to make the
dicker. Vote the straight Peoples
ticket from top to bottom and you
will win everything.

MR., MULVANB'S REPLY TO DUB
CRITICISM.

reply from Mr.. Mulvane, OF the Bank
of Topeka, to our criticism OF his sta
tistical report Of the agricultural pro-
ducts Of the state. There are some
points in this reply that we desire to
notice. He says he is sorry we missed
the great point in them, namely, that
he had underestimate the value OF
the crop product Of the state"
On the contrary, we think he has
overestimated it, and we think, so far
as the prices he has named are con-
cerned, the sequel will show that he
has placed them altogether too high.
Neither corn or oats will reach the
figures be names until practically the
great crop of 1892 has passed out OF
the hands of the producer. Then we
expect the price to rise until the
speculators unload prior to the har-
vest OF the neXG crop.
But whether Mr.. Mulvane under
estimated the value of the crop or not,
he does not undertake to controvert
our argument that it is produced at a
loss, as shown in our former article,
nor does he attempt to explain the
constant decline of prices which we
demonstrated has taken place.
Mr.. Mulvane protests that, so far
as he is concerned, there was nothing
political in this statistical report, and
he considers it unfair to HIM that such
a construction should be put upon
his work. He is undoubtedly right
in this disclaimer. He says he has
been in the habit OF making these sta
tistical estimates for the last ten years,
for business purposes only.
It is not SO much the purpose OF
MIR. Mulvsne in making these esti-
mates, as the use that is being made
Of his figures by the republican press,
that called for our criticism, and we
think he will admit that we treated
the subject more as an economic
than a political one. 1t matters little.
as an economic question, whether the
crop Of 1892 is greater or less than
Mr.. Mulvane's estimate. If it is true,
as we think we have shown it to be,
that, taking all Of the products Of the
state into our calculation, they are,
as whole, produced at q loss, then
il these products exceed the esti-
mates given, the loss must be corre-
spondingly greater.
Speaking of the cost OF raising
wheat Mr.. Mulvane says:
You will fnd that this cost varies with the
men producing the crop, and will be as
widely different as they are in ability.
That is very true, and in our esti-
mate of the cost we used Mr.. Mohlers
figures which were obtained by
careful investigation of the subject
throughout the entire state. His
figure of 40 cents per bushel is the
average adduced as the result of this
investigation, in which not only the
varying ability of the producers, but
every other circumstance bearing
upon the cost was taken into con-

was not the purpose OF my paper.
Certainly no injustics was intended
in any statement made in our former
article, nor can we see that any il
done. We believe the statement re-
ferred to is fully justified. Let us
see.
The total value of the available
product of the year is put down
at $2O9, $4,000. After deducting the
amount estimated for seed and fol
home consumption generally. there Is
a balance stated of $92,500,0O0 which
by inference, at least, would be re.
garded by the general reader as sc
much clear profit that would accrue
to the producer. Not only IS it pre-
sumable that this inference would be
drawn from the figures given, but the
republican press took especial pains
to see that such an Interpretation
should be placed upon this balance
Is it unfair, then, for us to correct this
error? Is it an injustice to any one
to say that the figures are ''intended
to show condition of things that has
no reality in facts" There certainly
can be no injustice in it unless it is
IN the use of the word intended"
We did not design to say that Mr.
Mulvane's purpose in this estimate
was deceitful. The word intended
was not used in that sense. But with
out any quibbling over words, the
effect Of that estimate was and is to
show a condition of things that has
no reality in fact, and the comment
of the press fully jLsti6es this state
ment. There is no such condition oi
prosperity among the agricultural
classes in the state as those figures
would indicate to the mind of non
resident especially. The surplus
products of the state over and above
family and incidental expenses have
not for several years paid the taxes
and the interest on the aggregate in
debtedness and it will not do it this
year. Leaving politics entirely out
of consideration and treating this
matter purely as an economic ques
tion, we submit that it is one in which
Mr.. Mulvane and every other gooC
citizen should take a very deep anG
lively interest. The facts and stats
tics submitted in our article of two
weeks ago are Of SO serious charac
ter that they will not down. They
exhibit conditions that demand ad
justment and Mr.. Mulvane, as gooC
citizen of this republic in which w
all have a common interest, shoult
lend his acknowledged abilities In aic
Of the solution of the problems tina
are now disturbing the very founda
tions of society, and that will ulti
mately lead to revolution if not SOLVED
by peaceable means.
We certainly desire to be fair, bu
we also desire to be just; and abov'
all things, we desire to secure a care
full confederation of the questions in
volved in the economic controvers!
