A SERIOUS PROBLEM.

The great Arkansas river is being
slowly but surely consumed-annihila-
ted.
The Arkansas river is as much nav
igable stream, in law, as the Mississippi.
The government OWLS the river from its
mouth far into Colorado. Its banks
were meandered by the government
surveyors and no Individual or corpora
ton owns any portion of its bed or of its
waters. But its waters have been sys-
tematically diverted by ditch companies
and individuals until the stream within
the bounds of Kansas has practically
disappeared for many months of each
year. The disastrous result to the farm
ers and to the cities of southwest Kansas
would he hard to demonstrate by facts
or in figures but it is claimed by many
of the older and more oeservant settlers
of the valley that the div"rting of the
waters have noticeably affected the at
mospheric conditions and the rain fall,
and very certainly and seriously dimin-
ished the ''undsrhow" and its subirri
cation agency in the immediate valley
not only but in the counties south of the
river.
The question has been asked, is there
any vested right or easement with con-
sequent remedy. While it is a question
which we cannot answer, IL seems never
theless to be one of enough importance
to warrant state action of some char
acter, either through its administration
or law officer, through the legislature or
by its representatives in congress.
When the ditch operations CT Colorado
had commenced to visibly affect the
flow or volume of the river, and while
yet the general government was making
annual appropriations for its improve
ment as navigable stream, the editor
of the EAGLE wrote Senator Plumb of
the matter, furnishing him the results of
personal observation, and conclusions
as to the future effects to the agricultural
interests of this section. The senator re-
piled that all navigable streams were
under the supervision and care of the
secretary of war and that he would
have conference with that official at
an early date. The details of the subse-
quent letter containing the facts and
suggestions brought out in the con-
ference have been forgotten, but if our
memory serves us the secretary of war
referred to the status of like questions
in California, saying that he could do
nothing in the absence OF more definite
legislation upon the part Of congress.
As fully one-fourth of this state is
directly affected. and the rest of the
state more or less interested by the way
of crop asgregations and total wealth,
we are persuaded that the subject is of
sufficient importance to demand some
authoritative action, or at least of official
INQUIRY.

WHY RAILROADS DON'T PAY.

The decision of the supreme court Of
the United States that railroads can
make their own rates is not AS startling
as appears at first glance. The question
has not been SO much the rate charged
as the inequality of the rates and the
rank determinations. Uniform and rea-
sonabie rates would do more to settle the
question than anything else. But when
the western states are compelled TO pay
five times as much per ton per mile for
a local haul that the same shipment
costs to transport it to the eastern sea-
board, the discrimination becomes un-
bearable to the people and has resulted
in bankruptcy 10 the railroads. In or
der to promote business it must lie fos-
tered. If the products of the west cannot
be produced and shipped to the market

driven out of business and the
reads lose the haul. If the wants

COULDN'T BLK THAT DENTIST

From the Cleveland Leader.
A Superior street dentist smiled
when he told of his experience in deal
ing with large and crafty customer.
In the absence of the dentist, date
was arranged by the customer with
the custodian of the business docket
for a goodsized job Of dentistry. When
the appointed day came he duly APP
peared and took the chair. For two
hours the buzz saw, mallet and file did
hard service. Then the electric bat
terry was called into play and one big
molar succumbed. Finally the Job
was finished and the chair vacated

Spouse. "You can charge it"
The dentist moved about in sus-
pense for moment, and then said. in
a measured tone: ''See here, my friend,
we are strangers. Cash is my rule,
and it is the only thing that goes"
Exactly" responded the customer,
rememb ering the pain he had just en-
dured, but what are you going to do
about it?"
The dentist was disconnected. His
happy thought struck him. "Just a
moment" he called out. I'm sorry,
but left one of those nerves exposed.
Will you just sit down again, please?"
The remark was uttered in such a
sincere manner that the man did not
hesitate in taking the chair. No
sooner had he done so than he began
to suspect that all was not right. A
sense of vacancy stole over him in the
region of one of his teeth, and in a
moment the nerve began to dance.
The dentist had removed the filling.
"What are you doing anyway?" he
managed to mutter as the workman
proceeded.
''Oh, nothing" was the reply.

bad"
The man clinched his fist and made .
spasmodic effort to release himself He
found that he had been made fast to the
chair with a strap. He grew hot and
drops Of sweat appeared on his fore
head and nose.
How much is this bili?" he finally
inquired.

ard because England and Germany self
iShiy demand that she must. That is a
truth about silver that nobody but .
gold monopolist will have the brass to
deny.
The silver question is the great politi-
cal question Of the hour, not only for
America, but also in Europe. 1t is the
question of questions, involving the
economical trouble of the whole world.
Individual members and single papers
of the republican party may be off on the
question, but the record of the party as
a party is right on silver, and the atti-
tude of the present administration all
wrong, even in the repeating of the pur-
chasing clause.
The silver question, that is, bimetall-
ism, and opposition to single gold stand
ard, will determine the next presidential
election.
The republican party must stand by
silver.

Jeanette L. Glider, editor of the New
York Critic, sister of Richardson Watson
Glider, of the Century, and one of Amer
lca's very brightest women, who was
compelled to make a home for her sis
ter's orphan children, contributes an able
paper te the Bazaar on woman suffrage.
She is believer in the mental equality
of the sexes and is opposed to any sex in
work, leaving every production OF man
and woman to stand upon its merits.
AS for public life for women. she is even
more strongly opposed to female suffrage
than the EAGLE, but holds
exactly to the same arguments.

to publish her sound and able paper in

Jersey coast that are peculiar. One
sort is the catching of frost fish that
are thrown up on the beaches in win

night, and the men are directed to the
fish by the peculiar Shaping noise that
the creatures make when they find
themselves landed high and dry above
the waves The frost fish are picked
up like kindling wood and carried
away in baskets No nets are used.
They are gathered like ripe apples that
