THE WORLDS FASTEST CRUISER,

In breaking the worlds record fOl
speed among armored cruisers the New
York has demonstrated the progress Of
the United States in ship-building. Con-
templating the wonderful improvements
in naval architecture and armament, il
is scarcely 10 be conceived how nations
equipped with such engines Of destruct-
ion may afford to indulge in war. Yet
at the same time the existence of these
vessels is, according to the reasoning,
most conducive to peace.
As a triumph of engineering skill the
New York is q credit to the nation. At
last Mondays trial speed OF 21. % knots
was maintained, and the mighty hull
was almost buried in the sea under its
own momentum. Twenty-four and one
fourth English miles an hour is the rec
ord of the New Iork-a speed per hour
which corresponds favorably with pas
senger trains in very many sections of
the United States.
Thus, late in the nineteenth century
of the Christian era it is still recog
nized duty of civilized nations to main
tain navies. 1t has been many years
since one man-of-war grappled with an
other, and yet the progress which has
metamorphosed the merchant marine is
rendering war vessels of the world obso-
lete in form, armament and speed.
The United States is first now with
armored cruisers. 1t may be that the
New York will one day be broken up in
some shipyard, without having fired
gun against an enemy. Aud yet we
shall have 70 build ether ships, larger,
swifter and more destructive than the
New York. Perhaps only a national
pride will demand it, but in so building
there may be demonstrated just what
we demonstrate now in the New York
our progress among the maritime ma
tions Of the world

WHY THE OBSERVANCE OF TO-DAY?

Some one remarked that the moral,
| socia, and intellectual status of COM
munity is evidenced by the appearance
| of It's cemetery-the attention paid to
and the condition in which the graves of
the dead are kept The remark has been
so universally accepted as to become an
axiom. And if true of communities as
to the consideration shown by the in
dual living to the individual dead, how
much more so it is as applied to the COM
munity at large, the nation, in its mani
festation of respect for its hero dead, IN
the sacrificial offering Of whose lives 1t
owes its present existence. Not duty
alone, but it should be the patriotic
unctlon, the sacred pleasure OF every
citizen to contribute something make
some personal manifestation of esteem as
a citizen and beneficiary of the wealth Of
achievement wrought by those who
strove, and won, and have passed into
rest. In honoring the chivalric dead,
the living do themselves the highest
honor.
And not to the soldier dead alone IS
tribute due; nor yet as n pleasurable
privilege of a grateful citizen inspired
by patriotic impulse, but it is duty 10
the young, even those who may not IN
their childish innocence comprehend and
appreciate its meaning. The ceremonies
and eloquent action of strewing flowers
upon the soldiers graves constitute an
object lesson that cannot fail to impress
itself upon the minds and hearts Of the
boys and girls, the young men and
young women of the country, and serve
as an inspiration to higher attainments
in life.
The day thus spent is not a day lost,
but one, if rightly observed, that must |
count as the most profitable for the !
future welfare of the nation IN the up
lifting and inspiring of its citizens.

Summing his reasons for vetoing the
sugar bounty, Governor Hogg of Texas
SAID that IN the first place he believed
that congress WAS guilty of usurpatioa
of power in passing the bounty act.
and that 10 accept money from such
source the state government would be
an accessory TO the crime. and in the
second place the state would debase her
dignity, prostitute her honor and appear
in the hul'iliatinS attitude OF a subject

70 the Editor OF the Eagle.
The public has become accustomed to
reading newspaper accounts from many
Of the western states, each claiming 10
possess all Of the elements necessary to
an ideal country for home and it may
| be admitted that within the confines of
any of these states or territories some
one or more Of these elements may be
found, but the question that naturally
arises in the mind Of the homeseeker, is
where can the greatest number OF these
| qualifications lie found to exist
! In some of the Missouri river bottoms
all kinds of grain grows to perfection
and crops seldom fail except IN an
occasional season when they have
an overflow then ali is lost. Then
again there is only a certain class of peo-
pie, those who possess the most robust
constitutions, who can endure the
miasma of these valleys.
Tie tide of immigration that flowed
10 the Dakotas and northern and central
Iowa and northern Nebraska has been
arrested by visit of an old time winter
which IS ever ready to make life a
burden to those who are unused to the
regions of that climate
California has received large share
Of immigration during the last half
dozen years, as also the other Pacific
states, but it is conceded by all that not
one of these can truly be classed as an
agricultural state. That the climate is
good there can be no doubt, but eli
mate equally as good and just as
healthful in every respect is found in
southern Kansas, and in a strictly agri-
cultural district, where greater divers
ity Of grains and fruits can be produced
than in any other locality in the United
States.
California and Minnesota are classed
as among the first of the wheat growing
states, yet we find from an examination
of the statistics furnished by the agri
cultural department at Washington, that
these two states produced S0,000,000
bushels of wheat in 1892 We also find
in the same report that Kansas alone
produced over 70,000,0 600 bushels. 1t
is further shown in this report |
that California and Minnesota
together produced less than 100000 I
bushels of corn in 1892 and that Kansas
IN the same year produced over 145,000,- |
000. In order that the public may better
understand the relative position of the |
leading agricultural or grain growing |
states comparative table is herewith |
submitted, taken from the last annual /
report of the agricultural department at
showing the number of |
bushels of wheat, corn and oats pro-
duced by each of the six of the leading
grain producing states for the year 1892.
By an examination of the figures the
reader can very readily see which are
the grain growing districts.
The Wichita daily eagle., 1893-05-30

Estimates have been made showing
the value of the grain produced in each
state as shown by the above table refer
ence being had to the price of each class
of grain prevailing i'll the state wherein
such grain was produced. This discloses
the fact that the aggregated value of
the wheat, corn and oats crop of Kansas
for 1892 was in excess Of $50, 900, 900 or
more than the value of the grain
crop Of apv other state. When
it is known that in Kansas less proper
ton of the whole number Of acres are in
cultivation than in any other state and
that the population is less in Kansas
than any other state included in the
above table and consequently a less num-
Der of persons engaged iii grain growing
the above figures will be more apparent.
As a fruit growing country it is GER
tainly unsurpassed in America; all kinds
Of vegetables that are adapted to a tenn
perate climate succeed there admirably.
An obi ection has been raised on account
of fuel, but it is we'll to remember that
all eastern Kansas is underlaid with
coal and the denizens of central
Kansas find it no more expensive
TO provide fuel than the people of cen
tral Illinois. This is made possible by the
miidness of the climate in southern
Kansas which has been called the Italy
of America. and it would seem from the
pure air, Its beautiful sunshine, its in
vigorating and health-giving climate
that this appellation was properly given.
A careful observer who recently re-
turned from an extended trip to the
southern and western sta tes said that
southern Kansas was susceptible Of
greater development than any part of
the west as the soil and climatic con-
ditions are such as to admit of greater
variety of production than any other
state. HENRY KNOX.
