Withsan ascertaIned shortage in the
wprldsisupply of wheat amounting to
100000, 900 bushels as compared to the
average normal supply. it seems almost
unaccountably strange that the price of
that cereal should continue to decline.
This'cannot last very much longer, for
that has been withdrawn from circula-
ton will be again seeking investments,
and there is nothing that promises so
large margin of profit or greater secur-
ity than wheat at its present value-un-
less 1t be Kansas real estate, which is,
beyond question, at the very head of the
list, though it can hardly be classed
among the speculatives.

A spirit Of unrest seems to pervads
the human family extant, and in an
unusually large number sections of the
universe this spirit has led the people
into open revolt against the ruling pow
ers. In fact, there is scarcely country
where there is not more Of less man
Hesitation Of that spirit As to the
cause or causes of all this, it would re-
quire close investigation in each par
ticular case to ascertain all the moving
facts, but one of these, in every in
stance, would be found to be dissatis-
ton with the policy of the government.
We know it is the case in this country
and it is fair to assume that it is the
same elsewhere. Happily for us our
people are more intelligent and con-
sentative than most Of the others, and
are, consequently, better prepared to
settle the difficulties by peaceful
methods.

THE MISSOURI PACIFIC IN KANSAS.

From the Emporia Republican.
For several years past it has been the
desire of our people to have the Missouri
Pacific railroad company extend one or
more of its lines to this city. From
Waverly on the east, Madison on the
south or Carbondale on the north, the
connection would be desirable and of
great Importance to both the city and
the company. 1t now appears that the
company has been contemplating an
extension of its Madison and Carbon
dale lines TO this place. The latter
to go on through to Ell Dorado.
where it will connect with its Fort
Scott and Wichita line east, and the
former TO connect with the Carbondale
line at this place. This would give
completeness TO the Missouri Pacific
system in this state, at comparatively
small cost, which it seems to lis would
be of great advantage to the company.
IL would not only enable the travelling
public from a large area of the state TO
reach many points in the state. but 10
reach Kansas City and the east without
delay or change of cars, and, in the mat
ter of frieghts, would be of much greater
Importance.
