MORE LIGHT NEEDED.

Dark Corner That Should be
Lighted Up.
The attention Of the city authorities
is called to the dark corner Of TattnnIl and
Liberty streets. The nearest light is on the
next corner, but thelight is so far back that
its rays do not penetrate this spot, and at
night IL is so dark that one cannot see his
hand before his face. and TO make the mat
ter worse the pavement is raised probably
half foot above the asphalt. 1t is impos-
siole Tor stranger to notice the downward
step, and often a severe fall is caused by H.

noticing the descent, one OF them severely
wrenched her ankle, and a carriage had to

Tweed gang in the shade, but it has

reaching out for the national govern

made by that political octopus in extend
ing and strengthing the hold of its ten
tacles upon the government, local and
general, would be alarming if it did not
afford such clear pointers for its own I'M
dong. Tammany's success has been the
result Of thorough and complete organi-
cation, and persistent, determined eff
fort. The only feature it has to COM
mend it as an organization is its success,
and this cannot alone stand a counter

and backed by the principles of honesty
and the best interests of tile people. Or
ganized effort intelligently managed and
persistently and aggressiveIy pushed is
bound to bring success, and, it may be
added, it requires just these to bring it
in most undertakings.

WHERE DID CORONADO GO,

Lately there has been some discussion
through the columns of the EAGLE.
mostly of a humorous character, touch
ing the expedition of Coronado, and as
to whether lie ever reached the present
site of Wichita. The talk having reach
ed the eyes of an archeologist and his
torical researcher our readers are to have,
in a few days, a short and succinct
statement covering the only records of
the expedition ever written, and which
are now in the archives of Spain at
Madrid. The writer Of the article refer
red to has read all these accounts in the
original language and his brief paper is
very interesting.

THE QUESTION OF LOCALITY.

From the Atchlson Champion.
In great state like Kansas. in the matter
of selecting candidates for state officers, the
question of locality, perhaps. should not, as a
rule, be allowed TO cut any figure; personal fit
hess and worth should outweigh every other
consideration. Still there is something in the
idea that no one section should have mon
opoly of these things and that, so far as prac-
ticable, all parts of the state should be recog-
nized, provided they can furnish suitable can
didates.
In the matter of governor, until the election
of the present incumbent, the gentlemen who
have filled the high Office have lived in the
eastern portion of the state-Robinson, Craw-
ford, Osborne, Carney, Harvey, Anthony, st.
John, Click and Martin were all Eastern Kan
sas men. Governor Humphrey alone of all
the executives is a nonresident of the eastern
third
There were, it is tru., good reasons why this
section should thus have been so highly favor
ed during the first three decades of its history.
1t was for two decades the most thickly settled
and the most advanced section OF the state in
every respect, and represented by far the larg-
est and best part of it. But all that is no
longer the case. The middle third is now
the equal in every particular of the eastern
third and the western third especially
the southwestern third" is in every essential
feature fully at par with the other sections
named. Hence the Champion contends that
if there is such thing as one section Of state
having claim politically superior to other
sections at this particular time. Southwestern
kansas-the section known as the great Ar
kansas Valley, whose chief city is Wichita
has just that claim, and therefore can, with
the best Of grace, present its candidate to the
Republican state convention and urge his nom
ination on the score of fair dealing and con-
sistency.
The lieutenant governor, the state auditor
and treasurer might be selected from Northern
and Northwestern Kansas, but the governor,
secretary of state and superintendent of public
instruction should by all means be taken from
Southwestern and Southern Kansas.
This, in our opinion, would be an equitable
and to all but the small clique of fiXers who
infest Topeka be an eminehtly satisfactory
arrangement all around.

SILVER WEDDING.

The estmable wife of President
Phillips of the Southwestern NJ. Z. college
at Winfield in her anxiety to advance the
interests ofthe school, conceived the idea
of celebrating their silver wedding swith
the understanding that all donations or
presents should be in silver dollars or
books for the college library. Invita-
tions wee sent out for the wedding
which took place as she college Monday
evening. The building was brilliantly
Illuminated. The elite of the city of
Winfield were present with quite nu n
Der from surrounding towns. The wed
ding ceremony was performed after
which refreshments were furnished fol-
lowed by toasts responded to by teachers.
pupils and preachers, in which a great
many brilliant things were said,
excellent music from the college orches-
ira in addition TO vocal solos, added in
terest to the occasion. The object for
which Ii was planned was 4 success be-
yond their utmost sangEine expectations.
The cash and value OF books is placed at
$1,000. The books are most all standard
works. The whole affair from COM
to finish was conducted in
an elegant and BETTING manner. The
EAGLE congratulateS President Phillips,
faculty and students.
The college is already too small; more
than 400 students are enrolled. and
call for more room is being heard. which
ought 10 be met by the conference and
the friends Of the institution.

DEMOCRATIC ENDORSEMENT

Some one sends us two copies of the
Beacon of July 10 and 20, 1888, contain
ing respectively column articles favoring
the editor of the EAGLE as the RepubIi-
can candidate for governor. The arti-
cIes are remembered with pleasure, and
yet with pangs of misgiving. The
editors and prOprietors of the Beacon
are splendid lot to meet at their homes
or in any other social way, and gener-
Gus, enterprising fellow citizens with
whom there is little chance for any mis-
understanding, but their paper, politi-
cally, reeks with the blood of unsuspect-
ing victims. The editor of the EAGLE is
all right, for them, as an Individual, but
once a legitimate target for political
crucifXion the Beacon would make the
average Democrat weep for very SYM
patty. They would, about the first
thing, insert their snicker-snee between
the friends of ourself and those of every
other aspiring Republican of this baili-
wick and proceed to twist it round and
round IN such a horribly insinuating
way as would make even a calamity
bowler forget himself and smile. No,
thank you, we will defer quoting our
esteemed cotemporaries' complimentary
things until about the coronation period
of the suspicious future.
