SAFER AT WICHITA.
Better Make Run f.r Ger. amy yhan an
Uncertainty,

| The EAGLE has no advice to give to those
intending to go to the strip for invest
ments. 1t viii afford opportunities TO
! thousands Of hOmeseekers to lay the foun-
dation for q competence, and it is not UNI
natural that there should be n great rush
for this last great body of rich agricultural
| lands which remain to be taken up. A
| word Of precaution, however, may not be
out of place, applying especially TO those
who go principally for investments.
Nothing stimulates the selling price of an
article SO much as competition between
numerous buyers. It is Il fore2one con-
clusion that purchasers and settlers
will be greatly in excess Of lands and lots
to choose from. This being the case, and
buyers intent upon an investment Will,
| under the excitement and competition, pay
more than the property is worth, and more
than it will bring for years to come. 1t
should not be forgotten that there are
chances for bargains i'll Kansas laid and
Wichita property such as will never be
offered again, and it Is matter for the
investor 10 settle for himself whether or
not lie is leaving better bargains and safer
investments at home than he is liable to
find in the new country.
A point in favor of Wichita purchase
is that there is nothing problematic about
It, Our railroads are built, our wholesale
trade is well established; our public build
ings, schools. churches and elegant homes
which have been secured at great cost are
here. They add greatly TO our comfort
and are Indispensable in all cities. Through
the influence of the late boom and its col
f.,,,E t,a,
about the figures which will be paid in
embryo towns of the strip, it seems absurd
TO take money fiom Wichita to be put upon
an uncertainty. These points will, no doubt
be considered by many, causing them to
return aad plant their money in Kansas.
Ii is never quite safe to rush hurriedly
into an investment, and we offer these
suggestions simply TO point the parallel of
prices aud prospects.
Wichita has at no time in her history
been On as secure footing as today. She
has all the natural and more acquired ia
cilities than she ever had. The settlement
of the strip will of itself be a great factor
leading to early growth. 1t supplies new
territory and hundreds Of thousands of
settlers to be fed and clothed. Wichita
holds to the geographical position and is
the unriyalled supply point for that terri
tory.
The discrimination in freight rates
which have retarded her progress as job
bing center so long. cannot last. aud when
this yoke is removed she is rs certain to
double and quadruple her present popula-
ton as that the same influences and
causes have built other great cities in the
west. These conditions being at her doors
she offers inducements TO the investor
which occur but seldom in life time

striking figure in the rotunda at the
Kimball yesterday was that of Capt. Con-
way of Augusta, a prominent candidate for
the United States marshalship of the
Southern district OF Georgia.
When it was announced that the war
was over and Breckinridge's brigade was
mustered ont of the service at Washington,
Ga, Capt. Conway aud Hon. J. c. G.
Black. who were among the Kentucky
troops, went to Augusta, where they have

''Well, Just after the boys were mustered
out at Washington they heard, in some way,
that several wagons loaded with confeder-
ate money and gold were not far distant
from that town.
1--WE were all In a pretty bad fix finan-
cially, and about forty Of the boys, think
ing that they were about as much entitled
TO this money as anybody, il not a little
more so, decided to go out that night and
capture those wagons, selecting me TO lead
them. OF course we expected TO have to do
q little nghung, out ulun't mlno tnat, as we
were used to it.
But Gen. Breckinridge got wind Of the

of doing this thing. Some Of the boys are

all Of US to go home, and | sincerely hope
that ell Of you will abandon this idea Of a

captain, was that we gave up the idea,
but the very next day we learned that the
yankees captured thuse wagons Just before
daylight and took the last dollar.

night the wagons could have been taken

leration was accepted as having been
given in perfect good faith; then there
began to be doubts expressed. Finally
the whole country got into q faggy
condition OF mind on the subject. All the
while hr. Blaine's friends Ia the different
states were more alive than ever. They
would not take no" for an answer. Com
vention after convention selected Blaine
delegates to Chicago. Mr. Blaine was grieved
to find himself so much misunderstood, 50
on May II, while in Paris, he wrote let
ter 20 Whitelaw Reid, in which he left no
doubt Of his purpose TO decline the proffered
honor. Notwithstanding all these facts the
Chicago convention was so thoroughly

Guilty IN giving up their choice. At last
Benjamin Harrison was chosen as their
standard~beareF. Mr.. Blaine returned
from Europe, Immediately took an active
share in the contest and made speeches in
many OF the northern states.
SECRETARY OF STATE AGAIN.
When Mr.. Harrison was elected President
heOhered Mr.. Blaiue the post Of Secretary
OF State, which he accepted. 1t was freely
stated that the President would have pre-
ferred another premier, but be was forced
by Mr.. Blaine's friends in his party to
recognize him after some fashion if he cared
for peaceful administration. The ses-
sion OF 1890 brought with 1t the
Kinley tariff bill Mr.. Blaine preserved
long silence on this measure a silence 50
profound that whispers found ter way
into circulation that the Secretary Of State
had no faith in the sue cess of the bill under
consideration. AT hast all doubt on the sub
ject was removed by the publication of his
celebrated letter 70 Senator Frye outlining
the reciprocity scheme which was subse-
quently saddled on the Mckinley bill. The
chief incidents Of his incumbency Of the
chair of Secretary Of State under Harrison
were the panAmerican conference, the
Boring sea dispute, which is not yet de-
cided; the New Orleans lynchiugs, the
Chilean embroglio aud finally his resigna-
ton OF the eve of the Minneapolis conven-
ton. All OF these affairs, however, are Of
too recent occurrence to need further asten-
ton here. After Mr.. Blaine's retirement to
private life he lived very quietly in Maine
until his health. which was poor, had i'm
proved enough, as he thought. for him to
risk Washington life, when ne moved with
his family to the capital.

CROPS IN BRYAN.

Indications That the Acreage in Cot
ton Will be Large.
PEMBROKE, GA, Jan. 27.-Farmers are
making preparations for planting crops and
the indications are that this years cotton
crop will be three times that of last. In all
probability the average VIII be fully
doubled. Owing TO the two droughts oc-
curing respectively at planting time and
during middle growth the yield of last
years cotton was cut off considerable from
what it would have been otherwise.
The experience Of many years OF al
ternately, extreme. and moderately cold
winters have taught plan ers that
continued colds aud SHOWS are
TO the land. The effects are brought about
by peculiar decomposition of the latter
growth of herbs and grass with the earth
besides, no doubt, there are other natural
reasons not accounted for or explained, but
these favorable predictions have been made
as to the result of tho recent colds and snow.
Fruit trees will also be materially bene-
fitted and a large crop may be much
expected. Peach and some other trees that
are usually in bloom at this date, show no
spriGs putting forth. Considerable truck
farming, such as potatoes, cabbage and
melons, will be carried on this year by those
living within easy access to stations. Dat
crops, where the land Is poor, are
killed, but if fortified or sown in
rich soil, they are still green
and unhurt. 1t is estimated that more
Ruano will be used this year than in any
year during the last decade. Many have
already stacked under shelters six or seven
tons, and carts are daily carrying carIoa Is
away from the railroads. The manu-
facturers will most likely not be able to
supply the demand if farmers in other parts
Of the country are buying in proportion to
those here
