REPUBLlCANISM IN BUTLER.
To the Editor of the Eagle.

% the foitOr OF the Eagle
On Thursday night, the 18th, the people
of Benton were addressed by Captain W.
Z. Burgess of Wichita on the political
issues of the day day. His was one of the
best speeches it has been our pleasure to
hear this season. His discussions were
presented in clear and foIciful manner,
and in such way as to be uuanswerable.
1t abounded in facts, and was bright with
illustrations portraying the truth in d
convincing manner, to all who would hear
the truth.
He INDUCED in no abuse and discarded
personalities. The tariff question was
made plain, and, by an array of statistics,
the speaker showed that since the tariff
measures had been in force, labor had
profited by it; new industries had been
developed; manufactures increased; that
the cost of living lowered, and the declara-
ton that the tariff is a tax" as argued
by the the Peoples party. was held up in
such an amusing and absurd style that all
were convinced of the absurdlty and false
hood of such an argument.
He com pared the financial policies Of the
two parties, the financial condition of the
country-at present. He showed that the
country's Indebtedness at the close of the
war was 81. 500 coo, 000-that this vast sum
representa- the gold, silver. paper money
bonds, etc. This was virtually the amount
in circulation Gold was worth - 80
Divide the s.. 500, 0O0, coo by this standard
of gold value, and it shows We had in
actual circulation $1,000 000, 600 Estima-
ting the population then at 10000 COO
gave Il circulating medium OF SIS per
capita. st that time there were
no customs, no duties, no tariff,
but the gold necessarily went TO England
and other foreign nations, and this was at
a period when, in fact fres trade was the
policy. Since that time and particularly
under high protective tariff, We were do
ing business on mouey equal 10 gold, and
our credit was better than that OF any
other nation on the globe. We are increas-
ing in wealth and prosperity.
The speaker showed the development OF
the Territories-the vast opportunities
for increasing power.
He closed with fine perora.ion on our
educational institutions aud made an
enlogisric appeal 20 the young men, 20
cooperate with the grand old party.
The crowd gave excellent attention
throughout. His was al educational
speech.

WHAT WAS IT?
A Peculiar Meeting Held ut the Garfield Hal
Last Night

A meeting was held at Garfield hall in
this city last night that was certainly q
freak of politics. It was neither Demo
cratic, Republican, Peoples Party or
Prohibition and if any single man who
attended it has any idea this morning as
to what particular party policy was
advocated he must certainly have a
wonderful degree of reception. 1t was
absolutely funny to contemplate it soberly.
The only thing one could make of it was a
mixture of the fragmentary political ele-
ments that are Again the Government.
1t wasn't Democratic meeting for
every man on the stage. and they were
supposed to be representative of the crowd,
are formly determined not to vote for a
single Democrat this year and it wasn't a
Farmers Alliance meeting for their was
not a single farmer honored with seat On
the stage. on the contrary the old enemy
of the farmers, the lawyer. was there
in abundance. While waiting for
the services to commence the EAGLE
man looked over tie worthless on the stage
and here they are:
John Martin, lawyer
John Eaton, lawyer and national banker.

THE Nogales people ar- seriously in earnest regarding their intentions to apply for a division of Pima county at the session of the legislature which convenes in February next.

A Cow Story.

The most remarkable occurrence
 that ever . newspaper asked it's read
 CTS to believe happened in Nogales on
 Sunday night and the truth of the
 story is vouched for by the writer, who
 was an eye witness to 1t. The Monte
 yuma hotel, beside being first-class
 house, has frst-rate crowd of guests and every room is filled. They will vouch for the correctness of this tale.
 On Sunday night about a. m. s noise
 was heard at the foot of the flight oi
 stairs on the ground floor. It sounded
 as though . hali-dozen intoxicated
 celebrators of our Savior's birthday
 were "'oliing home in the morning,
 boys" It took them fully fifteen min
 utes to get up the first flight. Their
 passage through the long hall at the
 top was tedious. They evidently
 stopped to rest before tackling the
 next flight, which ran to third floor
 and which are winding in their ascent
 and more difficult to mount. After
 resting fifteen minures or so tine iasi effort to reach the home base was be- gun. The noise was terrific, men swore and women muttered impreca- tions upon the heads of their sup posed husbands who were returning from the banquet. Every occupant Of the house wondered why some other fellow did not go to the rescue of the unfortuna,es. At last the top was reached and silence reigned. One | lady whose husband had been due for | several hours knew that he must be | among the number, and the poor fel- | low overcome by his exertions had fallen to sleep at the end of the hall in front of his bed room door. She had compassion on him. She wo Id open the door, drag him in and put i him to bed. The halls are all bril- liantly lighted by electric lights. She opened the door and almost simulian- eously uttered piercing scream that startled every mar, woman and chil in the house, who hurriedly halt dressed and started for the scene of the tragedy. Doors opened cautious ly at first, a giggle was heard here and there which broadened into roar of laughter, for there at the end of the hall, with her head out of an open i stood a COW chewing her cud as contentedly as though she were in the middle of Salt river alfalfa field. The animal had without assistence and unknown to anyone reached this eminence of her own free will. The anima. was a strange one 10 the pro- prietor of the house, but it is safe to say that her photograph is engrafted Dn the memories of the guests of ths house for all time to come. The COW was with difficulty started on her downward course and reached terra firm. as easily as though she had been \ circus COW all of her life.
