The storm along the Atlantic coast
Monday was the most widespread and
destructive of any that has occurred for
many years. lt extended from the
Florida peninsular to Massachusetts, bay
and seemed to sweep every foot OF in
iervening land aud water. Hundreds Of
lives were lost and many millions of
dollars worth Of property destroyed.
Being forewarned did not serve to fore
arm the people. most persons being
more or less skeptical of Prof. Hicks
forecasts. However, there was not much
preparation 10 be madeagainst such COM
bined catastrophe from wind and water.
Those who had underground retreats
were flooded out by the tidal waves. and
nothing on land or sea could Withstand
the fury of the gale. 1t was simply

a TEXAS ROMANCER.

To the Editor OF the EAGLE
In a recent issue of your paper under
"Figures of Interest" a Texas statis:ican
declares that the state of Texas would
give five acres each to the families of
the inhabitants of the world, assuming
five persons to each family, and the pop
ulation TO be 40, 900, 600 Not content
with this gorgeous lie, he moreover
asserts that there would be 100000
lots left for public parks and buildings.
As matter of fact the area of the
state OF Texas Is about 40. 900. 900. /
nave heard Kansas liars and have read
their i.ures, but when it comes to CO.
lossal lying Kansas is nowhere. Ameri-
can exaggeration is proverbial, but this
Texan has more effrontery tkan his
peers. Yours respectfully,
". BURKE.

In answer to the question whether or
not intending settlers on the strip will be
allowed under the presidents prOclama-
ton to make the run from Chilocco,
Usage and Ponca, Commissioner Lam
Oreaux replied: THE presidents proc
iamation reserves TIE Chilocco, Usage
and Ponca reservations from lands to be
opened. / have no authority 10 grant
parties permission to go thereon" This
would seem to indicate that the 900
feet strip surrounding the lands to be
opened" is restricted TO the northern and
southern borders of the strip, which, if
correct. will sorely disappoint hundreds
who have planned TO make the run from
the reservations named or the 100 feet
adjacent TO them that was supposed TO
pXtend all around the lands TO be opened.

When majority of the Democratic rep
resentatives III the house Monday voted
against silver at the bidding OF the AFRO
CANT money power and to please Grover
Cleveland, they deliberately violated the
solemn declarations of the Chicago plat
form.-Topeka Democrat.
On the contrary, they carried out TO
the letter the declaration of the Chicago
platform which denounces the Sherman
law and demands its repeal. OF course
the vote on the repeal bill pleased the
money power and Grover Cleveland, but
the trick was fixed up by them and
adroitly incorporated in the platform.
Failing TO discover the deception prac-
ticed upon them, it lily becomes the
Democrats to kick at this late date.

A bill was introduced in the house
Tuesday providing for the coinage of the
seignorage silver bullion in the treasury.
That is all right as far as it goes; but
why not require the secretary of the
treasury To have all the bullion coined,
so much a month, until the whole is
transformed into currency? That would
add to the volume of money an amount
practically equal to the coin value of all
the bullion. which at present represents
very little if any OF the currency, the
treasury notes issued in payment for the
bullion having been taken in by the
treasury and gold issued in exchange
for them.

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE

| 1t is not unlmportant-aS thousands
of honest American workmen are de-
prived. by the shutting down Of the
mills, Of chance to earn their bread,
| and as the whole nation finds business
contracted by money stringency caused
solely by the threat of industrial revo-
lution-tO try to fix the responsibility.
With whom does it rest? Did any one
person set IN motion the train of Cir
cumstances which has produced these
lamentabie results? Let us see.
Silver purchases were made month
by month when Mr.. Cleveland sent to
congress his first incendiary message in
1887. They were still made when he
wrote his letter of acceptance in 1883.
They were made when he accepted the
nomination last year upon revolu
tionary platform; but still the business
of the nation prospered. But 10 sooner
had he and his party come into office,
with positive ability 10 make good their
threats, than great wave Of depres-
sion swept over the land. 1t is impOssi-
bic not 10 perceive that the whole cause
Of the trouble was the success of the
Democratic party, or to deny that the
man who gave the impetus to the forces
of destruction was Groyer Cleveland, to
whose rash utterances and aggressive
promotion of the free trade cause is to
be attributed, far more than to any other
influence, the caIamities which have
overtaken nation which up to within a
few months past was in the midst of
high prosperity.

A BAD BHh K,

From the Guthrie Capital.
The proclamation designates 100 feet
around the Glands to be opened to settle
ment." This is bad break. Haa. it
said around the lends known as the
Cherokee outlet there would have been
some sense in it. AS the proclamation
now stands you can start in On the north
line, follow the 100 feet along the Arkan-
sas river TO the Ponc a reservation, follow
the 100 feet to the west line of the
Ponca reservation, then south along the
100 feet to the southwest corner of the
Missouri and Otoe reservation. and then
you are within three miles of the land
Office town, Perry-which is now one
mile north of the present site of Whar-
ton. You can yet have 100 feet to play
on east to the Pawnee reservation. This
will allow 10000 or 10000 people to
crowd up to the very edge Of the best
lands III the strip, where two steps will
get claim; and it viii put them within
SIX miles of Kildare, and three miles Of
Perry. This might cause litigation, but
it would be entirely legal under the
wording of the proclamation, around
the lands to be opened"

Leavenworth Times: ut is claimed
that letter from Senator Martin, which
fell into the wrong hands, reveals the
fact that he is working against fusion in
this state this fall. He is anxious to
humble the Populists aud bring them to
an understanding that they are depend
ent upon the Democrats. There is prob
ably much in this story. AS the matter
stands at present John isn't III it with
the Pops. Unless he can bring them to
their knees he will not stand ghost of
show of reelection" He stands no
show in any event if the Republicans of
the state but do their duty this fall. The
success OF fusion next year, in the cleo
ton OF slate officers and members of the
legislature depends largely upon this
falls election of county officers: if it is
defeated now there will be no fusion
next year.
