millionaires, each eager to sell for his
principal and more than eager to give the
property Of his rival black eye. You
may imagine the undignified and IN
profitable spectacle, but as your lot was
cast IN Wichita and not III Stanley CITY.
your disgust cannot be real and hearty
enough to do justice to the situation. In
happy Wichita. as l gather from your
files, how different. When an investor
reached your city, while he was trcated
politely from all he came in contact
with, great care was always observed in
ascertaining who it was, or what prop
erty it was he designed to deal with or
to purchase, and that matter settled all
others stepped aside, pursued their
usual avocaiions and left the stranger
unannoyed by over solicitations, and if
it chaEced that the party having him in
charge could not suit him, he turned
him over to some one who had what he
wanted, and the property was sold.
This dignified method of course is only
possible to people who highly appre-
ciste their possessions, and is in fact the
only plan that will persuade the stranger
that property has any particular value.
Now l have no doubt but that property
in Wichita is as good as gold or bimetal-
lie currency for that matter, but if the
methods of Stanley City had been OBJ
served in Wichita, if Wichitaians had
fallen over each other to sell the casual
stranger, sine would not today be in con-
dition to lay claim TO the title of the
Peerless Princess, the metropolis OF the

WlIp-BYED PATERA LISM.

Speaking of Senator PETERS form Of
idiocy, especially his bill for the creation
of government loan bureau, the Phila-
delphia Press says the harm of such raw
and impossible proposals is done in Kan
sas and other states in which they clrcu-
late, filling the people with false ideas
of the powers of government and buoy
ing them with false hopes which are
certain to be disappointed. They can
not see that there is no more reason why
the government should go into the bank
ing and pawnbroking business any more
than into the drygoods or the grocery
trade. Uncle Sam would be in great
business foreclosing mortgages on Kan
sas homesteads and taking the tubs and
stoves of the farmers wives which had
been pledged to secure defaulted loans.
Yet the PETER bill will be franked far
and wide for the sake of adding to the
Populist vote by increasing the number
Of those who look upon the government
as rich, benevolent and rather simple
grandmother, who is bound to make it
easy for all whom improvidence. folly or
misfortune has given big crop of de-
sIres and small stock of ready capital.

HoKE SMITH ONCE MORE.

There seems feeble effort is being
madeto have congress investigate the
opening Of the Cherokee outlet. That
there was fraud and violence none
cogniZant of the facts will pretend to
deny. That there was collision between
representatives of the interior depart
ment and a large number Of Interested
parties, everybody believes. Mr.. Hoke
Smiths man might continue reporting
the utility and wisdom of the booth blind,
and its promotion of honesty, until
docmsday, but it would be impossible to
find man west of the Mississippi not
connected with either the interior or
military forces who would for moment
believe him. As for an investigation, it
would come too late for justice for those
who were defrauded. The truth is, even
if Hoke's honesty and good intentions
ment proved wholly inefficient. Fraud,
begotten of both speculative and adj
venturous spirits, triumphed, and
no amount OF investigation viii
remedy the great wrong done thousands
of honest homeseekers. Thousands Of
the very best equipped settlers, thou
sands of men with teams, live stock,
agricultural implements, andsoforth,
many of whom were accompanied by
their families, have already left the ter
ritory disappointed and Disguised. The
price which the government agreed to
pay for the lands, and which the settlers
must pay in turn, was too high by one
half in The first place, and to buy out
with additional price the successful
sooner was more than even the average
well equipped man could afford. There
fore an investigation, even if thorough
and honest, would be barren Of any sat
isfactory results, would utterly fan of
any reciprocation or recompense for the
men who waited SO long and patiently
on the border IN respect for the very
proclamations and orders which proved
their ruin.

The FL Dorado Republican makes
whole lot of insinuatius interro.ations
about the oil business. Il thinks the
coal oil inspection law the biggest fraud
on the statute books. Did you ever see
an annual or biennial report of state
oil Inspector? 1t is asserted = at q former
inspector collected $4,000 in seventeen
months for inspecting oil: AT one time
il cost $50 10 inspect a single barrel of
oil. The money collected for oil inspec-
ton is not turned into the state treasury
at all but it is the sole property of the
sate inspector and his deputies. and
that there is no accountability anywhere
under the law. Did you ever hear of
any oil being condemned by the state oil
Inspector? The Republican says that the
whole scheme Of oil inspection was
gotten Up by the oil trust to freeze out
the little companies, and the statement
bears strong suspicion of the truth.

Senator Martin introduced bill in ii

Senator Martin introduced a bill in the
senate day or two ago providing for an
amendment to the constitution authorlz-
ing the election of United States senators
by direct vote of the people in states that
desire. There is considerable popular de-
mand for some change in the mode oil
electing senators, but if the bill intro
duced by Mr. Martin was on his own
motion, it Yves prompted by an uEselfish
understanding in odd contrast with
his ruling characteristic. He must know
as we'll as every body inKansas knows that
no sort of scheme can avail him to get
back into the seat he now fills by fraud.

Bristow is now accused of posing for
the Republican nomination for congress
from his district. He was the life of
the late irrigation convention at Salina,
and if western Kansas is to be doubled
or quadrupled in value by irrigation the
quicker we get men who understand the
question into congress the better. The
motto of the west should be, "Save the
lower Mississippi valley from destruc-
tive floods by retaining and utilizing the
waters for the lands OF her upper tribu-
tarIes."

MONEY IN ABUND NOE.

The popular fallacy that there is a
futed by the reports of savings banks,
trust companies and building and loan
associations in all parts of the country.
The fact that money is not in circulation
is by no means conclusive proof that it
is not in existence, but rather that con-
fidence is Indispensable, no matter how
great the supply. A single savings bank
in New York city now has on deposit
over S50,000,00O. Safety deposit vaults
are overlooking in the larger cities,
while loan and trust companies hold
funds greatly in excess of all de.
mands. The advance sheets are
out for a report of the
department Of labor, which will be SUBJ
mitted to the next regular session of
congress, showing the condition of
building and loan associations through
out the country. 1t is estimated that
they now have net surplus fund of
over 100000, 600, held by something
over 5000 associations in the United
States. The report says: "The investi-
CATION discloses growing tendency to
lean money to outside capitalists in
SUMS of $50, instead OF combining
the loans to members. These loans are
made only where the money is not need
ed by members, but the accommodating
surplus supplies the associations
with more money than the
members can USE" Investments
of weekly savings in these associations
have grown rapidly for the reason, as
stated. that they furnish "a greater
stimulus to permanent banks, because of
| the spirit OF cooperation which leads
the members to retain their membership
instead of withdrawing their funds and
putting them TO other uses, as they
might do if they were simply on deposit
i'll savings bank with which they had
no connection except as depoSitors.'
Showing that this form of investment
is in its infancy in the United States, it
is cited that shares in England, Ireland,
Scotland and Wales aggregate over
| Isl. 000, 600 or more than half the amount
invested in a similar manner in this en-
tire country. These grand totals are al
ways surprising, but the exhibit shows
that the money Is IN existence, and, IN
der safe limitations, eagerly seeking in
vestment. What is needed now is that
degree of confidence which will induce
the trustees of these great aggregations
of capital TO let it out at reasonable rates
of interest. 1t the doctors of finance
and dabblers in legislation affecting our
currency could be made &c realize that
this VIII never be brought about bv laws
enacted, either in the interest of few
money sharks, or on the lines marked
ont by a few impecunious advocates of
unlimited fat shin-plasters, the road to
prosperity would be short ard easy of
| access. A direct vote of the poo
pie of the whole country would
soon adjust the iuequa lilies, and set the
wheels of commerce in steady. rapid
motion. What we now need IS deliver
ance from the capitalist who would sink
the welfare of his country to add 10 his
accumulated millions, and the dema-
gogue who casts his vote IN our legisa-
| tive bodies with direct reference TO its
bearing upon his political prospects.

Give Us a Rest.

From the Lawrence Journal
The attempt to make political meet
ing OF the far a. Topeka has been a
failure. 1t ought to be. There is no
more sense in holding political meetings
at county fairs like that at Topeka than
there Is TO hold them in connection with
a camp meeting. The people of Kansas
really need rest from politics at least
one day IN the year.
