sons have succeed in dividing the
former splendid following of the late
Mayor and in driving many of his
stanchest supporters away from them.
The columns of the Times have been
used to abuse not only the late May
or's enemies but his friends. These
facts are matters of common notori-
ETY.. Having succeeded in dividing
the former followers of Mr.. Harrison,
they now decide to nominate Frank
Wenter and to ram him down Demo-
cratic throats.
They will have sweet time doing
it.
They will be quite as successful in
this as they were in the attempt TO
remove Chairman McGillen from his
position as head Of the Democratic
Campaign Committee and to substi-
tute Mr.. Frank Wenter in his place.

YOUNG DEMOCRATS.

THE EAGLE is pleased to note that
the young Democrats of the North
Side are looking to an active partici-
patton in the coming special election
for Mayor.
The Young Mems Democratic Club
of the Twenty-second Ward have
formed splendid organization, and
their example is being followed by
the boys of the Twenty-flrst and
the Twenty-third.
Every encouragement should be
offered these youthful enthusiasts,
and their good work will no doubt be
felt when the votes are counted on
the 10th of next month.

WILL MAKE 1T LIVELY.

EAGLE readers will have no reason
to complain of the lack of liveliness
in the paper for the future. 1t will
be a free lance in every possible
sense. 1t has avoided taking good
broad cracks at number Of stiffs,
literary and political, because of pol.
itics. Hereafter politics will not be
permitted to interfere with THE
EAGLES fun.
Democratic frauds and pretenders
will receive equal attention with Re,
publican frauds and pretenders, and
The EAGLES 35, 900 readers will oc
Hcasionally enjoy rare sport.

IT is a waste of time to theorize
upon the causes of the terrible
railroad wrecks that have followed
one another during the last month
each being more fatal and horrible
than its predecessor. One fact is
evident-that the railroad system is
essentially defective at some point,
and that where direct responsibility
is incurred the responsible person
escapes punishment. Not one rail-
road official, from President down to
brakeman, has been held to legal
account for the loss of life in the re-
cent accidents. The "investiga-
tiors" have amounted to nothing. So
far as known, no special precautions
have been taken to avert further
disasters. The smash-ups continue,
with increasing loss of life. This will
have to stop some time. Self-preser-
vation is the first law of nature, and
the travelling public will not submit
to be decimated. The railroads will
have to do something to restore con.
| tidence. People will not travel when
Z journey involves as much peril as q
pitched battle. The limit of endur
ance has been reached. The public
will stay at home or travel on foot
rather than incur the ever-present
danger of death and incineration.

WHAT ARE THE CHANCES?

While a lot of would-be Warwicks
are holding meetings by threes and
fours and deciding to force this man
or that man down the throats of the
Democracy, it might be well to stop
and ask what are the chances for
Democratic success on the 18th of
December?
The Democratic party was whipped
on the 7th day of November partially
because of general dissatisfaction
among Democrats with the National
Administration; partially on account
of the hard times, and partially on
account of too much Son OF His
Father business about the makeup
of the Democratic ticket. There is
no doubt but that the placing of the
dude, Trumbull, and few others Of
his ilk on the Democratic ticket was
an insult to the Democracy that it
was not slow in resenting.
Are there any signs of improve
ment on any of the lines indicated?
Let us see.
People who were dissatisfied with
the Federal Administration three
weeks ago have even more reason To
be dissatisfied now than they ever
had. President Cleveland has not
improved his standing with the peo-
pie by his extraordinary action in
the Sandwich Islands matter He
certainly has not improved his stand
ing with the Democratic workers by
his continued refusal to fill the Fed
eral offices with Democrats.
So much for that point. No i'm.
provement.
The sons of Carter II. Harrison
have decided to take the running Of
the Democratic party into their owr
hands. They have decided to turr
down numerous Democrats, and Il
put up candidate for Mayor with
out consulting anybody in particular
about it. Is there any improvement
in this aspect Of the case? Hardly.
On the other proposition OF hard
times, the times show no cheering
evidences Of improvement.
What is there then to encourage
the Democratic voter?
One thing is certain If the m en-
who are trying TO foist their own can.
didate on the Democratic party sue
ceed, that candidate will be defeated.
Democratic prospects are none toC
bright TO be spoiled by this sort o.
bulldozing.

IT is gratifying to our racial pride
to learn that many OF the crafty
Oriental fakirs in Midway who sold
piasters worth cents to the guile
less American for SO all summer
found that goodly proportion OF
their ill-gOtten gains consisted Of
Confederate aud extinct State bank
bills when they came 90 ~cash In.

AMONG the curiosities of taste, the
Partisan passion for self-eXhibition
at the morgue must hold a conspicu-
Gus place. The principal keeper at
the morgue is said to have had many
applications from persons eager to
figure az corpses on the slabs of the
dead-house. They were deferred by
the official announcement that the
temperature Of the bodies was kept
some degrees below zero, If this dis
comfort could have been endured for
twelve hours, and if the au horties
could have been persuaded to lend
themselves to such a fraud, what
materials for a coup in journalism
would have been afforded some enter
prising genius.

SENATOR COUGHLM.

Alderman John j. Coughlin, the
very efficient First Ward Representa-.
tive, is being strongly urged to be-
come candidate for the State Senate.
John is a man of great ability, and
if elected he would reflect credit up
on his party and upon the city. John
is rising.

HOPKINS IS ALL RIGHT.

The managemen of the campaign
of 1892, by John P. Hopkins, was a
masterpiece of ability and political
sagacity. The Democratic party
owes Mr.. Hopkins a debt of graft.
tude for what he did then, and it is
wrong for Democrats to asperse him
now, simply to crafty petty malice
and spite.

Hardly.

EVERY one who visited the Texas
Building at the Worlds Fair will
sympathize with the ladies of the
Lone Star State in the difficulty they
are now having with the contractors
who erected the structure. The Texas
women made friends of all who have
partaken of their hospitality, which
was as broad as their great State.
They raised the money for the build
ing themselves: the men had nothing
to do with it, They paid the running
expenses, too, and they did the hon
ors in a style second to no other State
represented in Jackson Park. They
won the respect and good will Of all
their guests, and they did more to
advertise their State than all the of
hceholders and wide-mouthed poll
ticians between Texarkana and Ell
Paso If the men of Texas do not
now come to the relief of these pub
lic-spirited. energetic women they
ought to be kicked across the border
into Mexico and made to say there

Sundry alleged Democratic papers
are threatening to bolt in the event

or that Democrat for Mayor.

There is one man who could easily
be nominated and elected Mayor If
he would only say the word, and that
man is Samuel b. Chase, the Cook

SUNDAY OPENING.

The well laid scheme of the worlds
fair directory to open the fair on Sunday
has failed. It was Chicago move from
first to fipish, even to the judge of the
supreme court of the United States. The
demand of the American people for the
maintenance of the American Sabbath
was so great that they could not stand
the pressure. Even the laboring people
of Chicago on whose alleged demand for
Sunday opening SO much stress was
placed by the board, repudiated it by not
attending. After it has proved an entire
and complete failure the directors meet
in star chamber session and pass reso-
luton closing the gates; not allowing
the national commission to have any
thing to say for fear they might get some
credit for 1t.
Under the circumstances the results
and benefits accruing from the whole
affair will be better and more far reach
ing than had the fair never been opened
on Sunday. 1t demonstrates the I'M
mense force of public sentiment when
expressed by the Christian and Sabbath
loving people of the nation, and an
nounces to the world that in spite of the
action of the Chicago board and their
construction of the law America will
have none of it.

The STRIP LANDS,

Ex-Governor a. p Swineford of Alas
ka, the newly appointed agent of the in
terror department to locate the land Of
fees, county boundaries and county seats
in the strip and Kickapoo lands soon to
be opened to settlement, reached Guthrie
last Friday, and in an interview III the
Leader gave out the following data that
will prove of interest to all who contem-
plate going upon the said lands when
opened:
1.-The strip is to be divided into nine
counties and the department thought it
advisable to establish four land offices.
My mission is to select the locations of
the county seats and land offices, and if
possible TO have my work completed and
a report sent in before Aug. /. Since nv
arrival hele Ihave become impressed with
the idea that the intending settlers in
the eastern portion of the strip could be
as well accommodated if that territory
was attached to the Guthrie and King
fisher districts, which would reduce the
number of new offices to two. How
ever, this is a matter for the department
todecide.'
The last county to be named in Okla
homa was THE Wichita country, not
opened TO settlement. On account of
the similarity in the letters it was de-
cided TO skip j and begin with X in the
northeast corner of the strip. West of
there will be l., VI, n; O will be located
south of \, and east will come 2. Q, r.
with the flat iron country named S.
The land offices will be located at
Woodland. near Fort Supply; Alva,
near. the Kansas line on the Southern
Kansas road; Skeleton, on the Rock
Island road few miles north of the
kingtisher county line, and at Perry or
Red Rock on the Santa Fee"
when do you think the strip will be
opened
1T is very much desired to have the
opening take place as early as September
/. Everything has been accomplished
IN the way of preliminary work with
the exception of approving the seventy
one aliotmentS aud that which | am de-
tailed TO perform.
The proclamation opening the coun-
try TO settlement has been written and
Is now III Commissioner Lameroux'
hands awaiting for the description OF the
land TO be incorporated therein and he
additional reservations for school pur-
poses, should any be decided upon
