Whist is all the rage in Washington
this winter. 1t is fashionable not sim
ply to play whist, but to play it scien-
tifcally, or at least to think you do.
Mrs. Harrison and her daughter are
learning, large number of senators
and representatives wives are enthusi-
astic in the game, and a bright little
woman from Boston, Miss Clapp, is
making hay while the sun shines She
is a professional teacher of whist ao-
cording to Cavendish. Her charges are
two dollars q lesson, and she teaches
four persons in a class. That makes
eight dollars per lesson. But she gives
three and sometimes four lessons per
day, and Miss Clapps income from
whist is at the rate OF $3.50 per week

profits. Grain merchants will have to
do the same. and when they only have to
buy the actual wheat raised they can
make their calculations more accurate
ly. Under the present system there is
no telling how large the supply Is. when,
for instance, one dry goods freak can
supply millions of wheat contracts With
out anything but pencil and a trading
card.
The short seller argues that he has to
buy it back, but before he does so prices
may have been depressed by his short
selling to the extent that holders are
compelled 10 sell, which they would not
but for the unnatural depression caused
by this fictitious supply, and when he
does buy he does so largely from some
other short seller willing to take his
place.
Is il conservative to say that there Is
90. 000, 900 bushels of wheat short III the
United States, on an average, the year
around. This extra supply, under pres
ent conditions, has the full force OF so
much additional wheat, and it is incon-
ceivable how anybody can escape from
the logic that, as supply and demand
regulate values. this extra supply must
tend to lower values. 1t Is no argument
10 say that sometimes markets advance
beyond reasonable level on account OF
urgent demands from short sellers, as
th, Sc accidents invariably occur either
before the producer can get his grain 10
the market, or after he has sent it to the
market They do not occur when the
producer is in position to profit by them.
The grain trade Is saturated with false
doctrines. The ignorance prevailing is
alarming. Commercial considerations
are of no consequence. Two bright
specimens today sold wheat on news
paper statement that the Argentine re-
public would have 260, COO, 900 wheat for
export, when every school boy ought to
know that the republic never averaged
5000 600 exports. What chance has a
farmer and merchant against those
dealers, whose very ignorance Is their
strength, because they act on it as under
the inspiration Of faith.
1t will take time to convince the Board
of Trade, but after the bill has gone into
operation it viii be found blessing IN
disguise. 1t will elevate the grain trade
to the rank which its importance COM
mands, and while it may relegate some
dealers to callings more in harmony with
their education, the Board of trade will
manage to get along without them.

SENTIMENT CHANGING.

The Presbyterian, in significant edi-
torial entitled Signs of Reaction says:
This fall, wherever prohibition was
more or less prominently an issue, the
result has been disappointing and dis
couraging. In Iowa, where the conflict
was most pronounced between the saloon
and the law, the returns showed the cleo
ton of man who had declared himself
opposed to the present constitution and
laws which prohibit the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors. In consequence, a move
ment will at once be started to repeal ex-
istlng prohibitory legislation. In New
York, though the temperance question
was only Indirectly involved, yet legis-
lature has been returned which is oppos-
ed to all restrictive regulation of the
liquor trade. In Pennsylvania there
has been conspicuous falling off in the
prohibition vote it being $50 small that,
under the amended election law, the
party has no standing, except it can Sc
cure it by the petitions of very large
number of citizens. There may be
special grounds for this diminished vote,
but making all due allowances, it is clear
that change of sentiment is going on as
to the propriety and value of advancing
temperance through distinctively party
medium.

resounded through the country vanishes
into the mockery of an echo. Signally

A STATUE OF PLUME.

There is hall in the national capitol
set apart by congress for statues of emf
nent men, to which each state has been
invited to contribute two statues re-
spectively of its most distinguished citi-
zens. This hall was in the days of Hen
~ Clay and up to the time of the build
ing of the present house wing the house
of representatives In passing from the
rotunda to the house everybody goes
through this hall which already con-
tains a number of marbles and bronzes,
principally of warriors and statesmen
from the New England, eastern and
southern states. Vinie Ream's
Lincoln stands in that hall
So far as the states have availed them
selves Of the privilege men of representa-
tive character have been chosen. Plumb
was in his manner and methods, in his
energetic spirit of enterprise and of faith
true representative of Kansas, as he
was in his ruggedness and breadth, q
typical westerner. Kansas will probably
never produce, or boast a son so truly
representative in all these particulars as
was the late lamented, loved and noble
senator. As printer, as an editor, as a
lawyer, as a soldier, as a banker, as a
farmer and as one largely interested
in the development of mines and
the agricultural resources of the
west, he filled every station
and performed every duty well. And
when he fell he was still growing; was
at the time of his death not only the
ideal of his state, but he ranked promi-
nent among the strongest and greatest
men of the senate and of the nation.
Then, why not place his statue in that
place of distinguished men, in the statu
airy hall of the capitol?
The matter would be one for the legis-
lature to decide, finally, but primarily
the move, the demand, must come from
the people-from the people to whom he
was faithful ever, and faithful to the
death,

MORE FUN AHEAD,

That was a suggestive dispath in yes
terday mornings EAGLE, headed "pack-
ing house rates." in which 1t was an
nounced that the packers of Sioux City,
Omaha, Kansas City and Wichita had
formulated complaint for the Trans
missouri Freight association against the
present determinations in favor of Chi
cago. The Transmissiouri association is
liable soon to be among the things that
were but it is hopeful sign to see this
move nevertheless. Chicago can ship
her packing house products to the gulf
for the same rate that is charged Wich-
ita which is just half the distance, and
Chicago can ship meats to Denver at
a cheaper rate than Wichita and as
cheap as Kansas City. This is dis
elimination not only against western
packers but against western live stock
men which should be done away with.
If western packers were afforded an
equitable pro rate with Chicago, they
would pay the farmer the Chicago price
for hogs. Not Only that, but large per
cent. of the hogs now hauled to Chicago
to be slaughtered would be slaughtered
at interior points. Its only because of
freight advantages held by Chicago that
the great bulk of the cattle and hogs Of
all the Transmissouri country are forced
to Chicago.

Oklahoma City Gazette: Chicago is
made the butt of many paragraph as
being city where person can procure q
divorce while stopping off between trains,
but the records of the probate court OF
Cleveland county show a case that breaks
the record in the divorce line. Some time
ago a resident of that county applied for
and ~as granted n divorce, and less than q
month had elapsed before the same man
was applying for divorce from another
woman whom he had married subsequent
to his first divorce Although the apph
cation was backed by the endorsement of
the second wife the probate judge refused
to grant decree, and the couple will have
to bear with each other for a while at least.
To show how the mem bers of the Citi-
zen band of Pottawatomies have their
rights, privileges and :mmunities curtail
ed by certain technIcalities and frivolous
anomalous conditions, certain member
of the tribe asked whether his son could
carry on store on his individual allot-
ment to which the commissioner OK In
dian affairs decided that "by the general
allotment law Indian allottees do not be-
come citizens of the United States until
their patents have been issued to them.
a that pending the issuance of such
patents trading cannot be carried on on an
Indian allotment no more4than it can on
an Indian reservation unallotted." Hence
member of the Citizen band being ciri
zen of the United States, would have to
get license and give bond of $4,000. the
same as any licensed United States trader
on an Indian reservation to carry on
store even on his own allotment.

Jerusalem Meal"
ON the Garden City Sentinel.

From the Garden City Sentinel
The Garden City mills have been
grinding some of the New Jerusalem
corn into nIeal for table USE j. NJ. Dunn
has had 1 400 pounds ground, the shrink
age in boiling being 200 pounds. Many
of our citizens have tried the meal pre-
pared in the same ways sare usual for
ordinary Indian meal, and pronounce
the new grain most superior and pala-
table article for the table. The Sentinel
has received a sample of it for trial and
will report results. Dr. Sewell of the
United States Grass station, recommends
the grain very highly for table use, both
ground and cooked whole like rice or
hominy.
