The. latest rain-makers who went to
Dakota to make rain and did not make
any should call attention to the fact
that shower fell in a Pennsylvania
town almost simultaneously with their
experiment. This reminds US of a
recent occurrence in the rainmaking
line up in Sherman county last week.
The enterprising people at Goodland who
had engaged rainmaker, at the stipu-
lated price of $500 to produce needed
shower, thought it only fair for the adj
joining counties of Cheyenne, Thomas
and Wallace should pay proportional
part of the cost and take their chances
at getting part of the precipitation.
Meanwhile the experimenter refused to
experiment because "the signs were not
right" just then the other counties
were refreshed with copious rains, while
Sherman remained as dry rs a chip.
The joke was on the people who got the
rain, nevertheless. because they gave the
Goodland experimental credit for pro-
ducing the rain.

SOUTH KANSAS CORN CROP.

A Kansas City dispatch appearing in
the columns of all the Associated Press
papers of yesterday morning makes the
announcement that the corn of Kansas
is in 4 critical condition and that unless
rain comes within a very short time the
crop will be failure. We suspect that
the dispatches were sent out iii the in
tereSt of the bulls. Fear of hot winds
was also expressed in the same dispatch.
Hot winds are the result of local radia-
ton and are impossible except after con-
tlnUOus drowth and excessive heat.
The EAGLE cannot answer for the
state of Kansas at large, bu: the corn in
this section of the state has not suffered
perceptibly by the excessive heat of the
past few days, There was an abundant
rain fall covering all southern Kansas
and Oklahoma on last Sunday a week,
ten days ago and corn that has been
properly cultivated could hardly suffer
In that time.
OF course If there should be no more
rain the corn crop Of southern Kansas
would be short, from what it would be
with one more good rain.

the dog days. The convention
was sweltering, but Mrs. Foster talked
on, and on, and on. Her fifteen minutes
ran into thirty, and the thirty into forty
five. She used up about an hours time,
but she reused up the delegates as they
had never been before. Old fellows
from the lumber couutry-old chaps
who carried hickory canes, chew-ed plug
tobacco, and wore striped calico shirts
yelled for j. Ellen to go on. She did not
need much encouragement, and did.
Her object is to encourage the forma-
ton of woInen's clubs throughout the
country whose work shall be an aid TO
the Republican party. She prefaced her
remarks by saying she had prepared an
address on the question. Each CORES

II any one thinks that Kansas properly
belongs to what was termed the Great
American Desert, let him visit Sedgwick
county, and particularly the great Min
nescah valley. We don't pretend that
she Garden of Eden was situated here,
but we doubt not that but few words
would be necessary to convince the
most skeptical that such was tie case
if lie only beheld the fields of grain
Up and down this fertile valley as far as
the eye Can reach stand multiplied stack
yards with backgrounds of magnificent
standing corn, that never knew what
thirst for water means. 1t has been
said, that when it rains in Kansas. il Is
Il deluge; thai when it is dry water be-
comes a natural curiosity" But this
year this valley has experienced neither
extreme. When the moisture begins to
fail, the corn has but to give nod and
down comes a copious shower, and at
gentle shake of the corn blades the sun
again come out and the corn rises a
couple of inches to meet it and mods a
gentle approval, while another thirteen
inch ear shoots out from under the two
or three already grazing the stalk. The
last murmurs, crowd over and make

The mobilization of the army of Penn
sylvania was conducted with rare skill
and It's concentration at Homestead
within few hours after the order was a
feat worthy the best generals of war
times. The experience will be valuable
to the Keystone soldiery, even if the
campaign ends with no more serious in
cidents than the march on Homestead
and the march back again, and every
body wishes that that may be the extent
of their experience.

THE RAILROAD KING ON LABOR.
Jay Gould.

Jay Gould
think the true mission of labor organ
izations should be to properly educate
their members, weed out the black sheep
and provide life insurance scheme
whose benefits would be worth working
for. The worker should be able to feel
sure that if by hard fortune he should
become incapacitated, there is still pro-
tecting hand to give his remaining days
some brightness; that there is safety
from the poorhouse and freedom from
the anXieties and tortures of absolute
poverty. And in case of death there
would be something to support the wife
and children, otherwise thrown on the
mercies of the wor d. Here the work
ingman would, have something to live
for; he would not feel himself cut off
from all the world; he would not be con-
fronted constantly with expectations Of
misery. Manliness would assert itself:
there would be no danger of dlsloyaIty.
The laborer would be patriot always.
He would never be law-breaker.
