WOULD LIKE TO LIVE IN MARS.
Wiggin the Prophet Says 1t Us Much
More Comfortable Than Earth.

OTTAWA, Ont, August 5.-Dr. Wig
gin, the weather prophet and astrono-
mer, thinks Mars must be a far more de-
sirable world to live in than our own,
because there there is only a small re-
gion near the poles where any winter
exists, and it has such a dense atmos-
phere that the temperature is not exces-
sive even at the equator. GAS it is many
millions of years older than the earth,
I Judge that its inhabitants must be
much more intelligent than we are, and
probably live for hundreds of years. /
would infer this from the fact that nox-
ious vapors do not exist in its atmos-
phere to cause epidemics, for its volcan-
ic agencies ceased many millions of years
ago. As his attraction of the earth is
now the greatest possible, our atmos-
pheric density is slightly increased,
which accounts for the great heat of the
present summer. This will also increase
the violence of Mount Etna's eruption,
and we will have an increased valcanic
action and humidity throughout the
World.'' 81

Admore Chieftain: 1t is a well known
fact throughout the Indian Territory that
the Chickasaws alone of the FIVE civilized
tribes have not adopted the negro freedom
and their descendants as citizens OF the
nation. 1t is also a fact that in W of
these tribes-the Greeks and Seminoles-
the Indian blood has been well nigh alb
| sorbed by the African, so complete has
been the amalgomation between the black
and the red races. Indeed, til commonly
admitted that the Greek Nation but one
~family-that of the late Judge Stedham,
of Eufauia-can boast of Indian blood un
contaminated by African. y view of the
legislative bodies of these nations will
cause the observer to wonder why the
tribes are not known as negroes instead OF
Indians. Governor Perryman, of the
Greeks, is an Africo-Indian, rs everybody
knows, and Governor Brown. of the Semi
noles, is a veritable Senegambian with
rings in his ears. Nearly If not fully one
half of the Cherokee citizens are adopted
negroes, although amalgamation between
the races is rare in that nation. In the
CAoctaw nation the adopted negroes con-
stitute a very considerable social and
political factor.

RALLY.
Honorable Chester I. Long and Senate
Bentley Speak at Clearwater.
CLEARWATER, Aug. 20.
ALBERT BIGELo'

CLEARWATER, Aug. 20.
To the Editor Of the Eagle.
The Republican campaign in this por-
ton of Sedgwick county was opened
here this evening by telling speeches
made by Hon. Chester l. Long and SEN
ator O. II. Bentley. 1t was first intend
ed to hold the meeting in the open air,
but as a number of ladies were present.
and it threatened rain, the meeting was
held in the Baptist church which was
we'll filled.
Dir. Worth Chambers, a representative
Republican farmer, presided, and first
introduced 1Ir. Long, who discussed at
length questions of a national character,
reading and quoting from the
Congressional Record of Jerry
Simpson. Long laid bare the
the sub-treasury and land loan schemes
embraced in certain bills introduced in
congress by Jerry Jimpson. He quoted
consciously from Jerry's speeches and
record as a representative IN congress.
His speech was candid, fearless, and to
the point. AT the close of the meeting
he was surrounded by many of our best
citizens, who shook his hand and assured
him of their warm support.
Senator Bentley has often spoken in
this city, and knows nearly every
man, woman and child in Minnesota
township. He took up and carefully
analysed the railroad bill as passed
by the last house, and his
talk on this subject was we'll received, as
u people know the man and have the
utmost confidence IN his integrity. He
touched I'D the late fusion and spoke of
the local situation in Sedgwick county.
After the main speeches the audience
called for the candidates OF the county
ticket, and Judge Naftzger, John d.
Davis, Professor Carson and Newt BrIdg-
man made remarks.
Altogether the meeting was a most
satisfactory n in every way.
On motion Of Mr.. D. A. Nickerson the
meeting adjourned for one week, at
which time a rousing Republican club
will be formed. Matters in Min
nescah township are starting off right
under the leadership Of such men as
Hammers Brothers, John Stanley, Henry
Miller, j. r. Elliott, F. S. Tillinghast, j.
w. Chandler, Sam Asmond, J.. T. Nc
Creole, Rank Watt, Tony Chambers,
Worth Chambers, Walter S. Roberts, j.
w. Brown, John Craig, and about 100
others. In addition to this there is a
large Grand Army post in Clearwater
which keeps Clearwater and Ninnescah
township in line for the Republican
party.
