Three Millions For Endowment Orders.


There is over $3,O00,000 lying in the
commonwealth treasury in the state
house at Boston awaiting distribution
among the certificate holders of the de-
funct endowment orders. In order to
facilitate a settlement the supreme jul
dicial court proposes to take an active
stand in the matter, and to that end E..
G. Bumpus has been appointed by the
court a special master to examine into
the situation of the several endowment
order corporations, to confer with the re-
ceivers and to report to the court plan
for an immediate dividend to the claim
ants, with the draft of decree ordering
such a dividend. Judge Bumpus has
taken such a course of inquiry as will
probably result in practical sOlutio 0t

ly having come to the conclusion that
the only way to settle them up is to take
a common sense view of the matter and

DUMB AS AN OYSTER.

Stiller than the dreamy silence oil
these fire autumnal days is the voice of
the president on what be proposes to dc
with silver after the repeal bill is passed.
The discussion through the press and in
congress brings out the fact that a large
majority are in favor of a biz -tallic
currency, yet he maintains with bull
dog tenacity his original demand for
unconditional repeal, refusing to be in
terviewed on the subject of further legis-
lation. His silence, however, will not
be misconstrued. If there was ever i
doubt Of his purpose to enforce gold
standard it is removed by his stubborn
resistance to all compromise. Whether
this is whim, personal trait or the
fulfillment of pledge to the money
kings of the country it matters not, but
he will find before he is elected TO
third term that even his hard head and
stubborn will are not invincible against
the demands Of majority of the people.

MONEY GOES.

Is there not some danger of over
doing this righteous Indignation bust
ness over the Van Allen appointment? II
is true that nothing can be said in de-
Tense of it, the applicant being unfit in
every essential point for the position;
but in so far as the president made the
appointment in recognition of the
power and influence of money, he con-
formed to the custom Of the country. If
the president is to be pelted for this
motive in making his selection, who is to
cast the first stone? The growing ten
dency to recognize money as the ruling
influence in political and social life is SO
universal that no man is exempt from a
share of responsibility. When an oil
king or bonanza king. without other
qualification, can literally buy seat in
the United States senate, or while an
untutored, vulgar nobody can rise to
the highest social rank with no better
recommendation than his having raked
together, or inherited or married few
dollars, itisnot the business of the public
to turn double somersauit OF indigna-
ton when a public official conforms to
the custom. There is room here for
moralizing and sermonizing, but it is
not the purpose TO more than call
to the sentiment for
which every one should feel that he is
partly responsible. This appointment
affords fine opportunity to begin re-
form, and we trust that neither execu-
tive nor party dictations will prevent the
senate from delegating this pampered
dude to remain at home and work his
way into notoriety at his own expense.
In his nimtable and vigorous style |
Edwin Perry Whipple trests the subject
n this wise: sit is pathetic to observe

| To the Editor Of the Eagle.
Now that they have wiped out the lit
tie infant (tin) with another of their
Democratic free trade war whoops, let
them keep right on making this glori-
Gus country until they clean up every
last solitary manufacturing institution
in this country. The sooner the better,
for they cannot exist in half-paralized
condition, and nearly every one of these
skilled mechanics and good workmen
IN factories and shops will make good
farmers, and when they all find out for
sure that free trede or low tariff is
coming they will get to the country and
the west and then we can sell land and
America can feed the world while Eu-
rope can do the dirty work. We should
hope to see this manufacturing business
all closed UP soon and forever and let us
go to farming That always pays and
those fellows will all get hungry over
there some day and then we will have
the heels of them. II.

REPUBLICAN RESPONSIBILITY.

In one month the election will occur
in Kansas. 1t is true that there will be
no state officers voted for, bus the polit-
ical battle to be waged during the COM
ing month is fraught with as deep an
I interest as ever characterized general
election campaign in the Sunfower state.
OF SO much Importance is the contest
| deemed that the Republican state central
committee has been called upon to take
charge of the campaign-a move that
was never made before in the history of
Kansas politics. In 1891 the Republic
cans. rallying from their shock of the
year previous. made bitter fight for the
county offices, and succeeded in captur-
ing the majority of them. But the Pop
ulists realizing that the Kansas people
are tired of their villainy, and that their
ticket will have no hope of victory in an
honest election, have conceived a new
plan by which they hope to maintain
supremacy in the state government.
This plan is to elect Populist county
clerks this year, and Populist county
commissioners. With the aid OF
these officials they brazenly declare
that it will be an easy matter to count
their candidates in at the next election.
no matter what the verdict Of the people
may be. So, that, in struggling for VIC
tory this year on local candidates the
Republicans are fighting the battle of
1894 on state candidates and the legis-
lature.
Republicans should remember that
they have foe to fight untiring in its
efforts and INSCRIPTIONS in its methods.
The Populists of Kansas have demon
strated that they can forget sacred oaths,
trample upon the constitution OF the
state and steal funds from the public
treasury in order TO advance their
political interests. They will stop at
nothing, no matter how damnable, in
order to achieve victory.
There is but one way to deal with such
an opposition, and that viii be By Repub-
licans adhering strictly to their own
ticket and their own party nominees.
No office, no matter how insignificant,
should be given to Populist. The Re-
publicans of Sedgwick county must stand
shoulder to shoulder with the Republi-
cans Of Kansas and do their part in re-
deeming the state from the reign of
treason and anarchy.
Vote the straight ticket.

CIGARETTE MAKING.
The Vast Number Consumed In
This Country in One Year.
Machinery Invented for the Purpose Has
Greatly Increased the Manufacture
OF the Destroying
AbOmina tfony.

The annual report of the commits
sioner of internal revenue shows that
three billion cigarettes have been made
III this country during the fiscal wear
| just ended, says the Cincinnati Com
mercial Gazette. This is an average of
about fifty to each individual. The
growth in the production of cigarettes
goes on year by year. A decade ago
the number manufactured was far be-
low billion. Like pretty much
everything else that is done in this
country, the manufacturing facilities
are greatly increased by the adoption
| of machinery.
| Within the last few years some very
wonderful machines for making cigar
cites have been invented. One pattern
will turn them out at an average rate
of two hundred and seventy-five min
ute. The patents on these devices are
vastly valuable. One style, which may
be well described for the sake of illus
tration, passes along an endless strip
of paper, the width of which is just the
length of cigarette. The tobacco is
led from above into little scales. They
drop as soon as they have received the
precise quantity required, emptying
their contents upon the strip of paper,
which is rolled, chopped off with
knives and glued neatly, all in an in
slant of time, of course, a great MANY
simultaneously, the machine counting
them and conveying them into the
packages, which are likewise wrapped
around them by mechanical contriv-
ances unaided by hands.
The Russians and Turks do not use
any machinery for the manufacture of
cigarettes, the work all being done by
hand. French cigarettes are particu-
iarly mild, because the tobacco is
STEPPED in water to make it So
The details Of the manufacture of
cigarettes are kept to greater or less
degree secret by the manufacturers.
each of whom has his own particular
combination of tobaccos. None of the
brands on the market are composed of
one kind only. The recipe is not di-
vulged outside of the firm. But this
is not all. The original mixture is
merely basis, for artificial favoring.
To begin with, various essential oils |
are added.
The list of these includes rose peran- |
ium, vanilla bean, tonka bean, and |
licorice root. These ingredients are |
added after the tobacco has been
into shreds in readiness to be |
rolled into cigarettes. Finally the /
particular drug chosen, in the shape |
Of liquid solution, is sprayed on the
with an atomizer, while the
tobacco is stirred and mixed. The
quantity employed is very carefully
Judged, so many drops being allowed
Tor each cigarette. AL the drugs that
are used in the manufacture Of cigar
cites cannot be mentioned, but there
s no doubt that opium, valerian and
;annabis indica are utilized TO the
argest extent Each manufacturer
