IBSEN AMONG JAYHAwKERs.

Kansas is a peculiar state. There is
no use in denying it. The people here
are as different from the people of Ne.
braska as they are from the inhabitants
of Georgia. They are nothing like the
Missourlans. Oklahoma, the child of
Kansas, does not resemble Kansas in
civic life, although many of its citizens
are from Kansas.
The people of Kansas have nothing in
common with those of Colorado. The
Sunffower state is an island, iguratively.
The temperament of the average citizen
is unlike the easterner and the far west
erner. There is no state in the Union
where there is so much independence OF
thought, commonly called kicking, as
there is in Kansas.
The typical man of Kansas has never
been described in book. HIS idiosvn-
crasieS have been ascribed to the climate.

AS TO AID AS RA ANDANrE.

A musical authority takes exception
to the EAGLES criticism in the way OF
music and musicians. He says thi:
| paper omits musical terms which are
absolutely necessary to clear under
standing.
A tenor robusto he says, is not tenor
leger, nor is an alto or contralto a mezZc
soprano, nor a soprano forte a soprano
legere. Or again that basso profundc
is not basso cantante.
This is what we like. If there is any
thing this paper is informed on it is the
curlecues of musical gibberish. There
Is no Joy SO unutterably unutterable as
that gasping bliss that comes to a man
who knows basso profundo when he
sees it. There is no pleasure so keen as
that which wells up in a mans soul
when he puts his trusty rifle over his
shoulder and strolls out into the wild
wood, still redolent with dew, and
plunks baritone cantanteS in the eye and
brings home enough for a mess.
As for mezzos, we have them for
breakfast every morning, fried some
times, and sometimes fricasseed. What
greater delight to the epicure than a
nice little largo cantabile scaled and
rolled in butter and then brought in hot
with Saratoga chips and parsley dashed
about the edge of the dish.
1t has been our delight for years 10 sit
in the moonlight and listen to the noe
turnal threnodies of the things that creep
on the dank earth and bats that fit in
the sky. The harmonious thrum of the
towering sunfiowers as the wind Gibbs

appasionate, and swishes around plur-

1t is then that we hug the glimmering
gloom and fit these Latin, Greek, Italian
and French phrases to the various and
varying sounds We hear That is delight.
What would music be today if it were
not for these beautiful terms? Where
would be the pleasure of communing
with nature unless you could dab on an
Italian term about once every three COM

WICHITA LEADS THE PROCE SSiON.

The opinion prevails in some quarters
that Wichita is in the same boat with
the smaller towns Of the state in bust
ness way. 1t is no disparagement to
other cities or towns to claim our own
or to publish a truthful exhibit of our
we can point TO the tonnage and volume
of trade, which far exceeds that of any
point between the Missouri river and the
Rocky mountains. Aside from statistics
which have been furnished from time to
time, our bank clearings are an infallible
ready barometer to the amount of busi-
ness transacted. 1t is the averages
which tell the story. Taking any period
of six or twelve months, Wichita has
distanced all competitors in the volume
of her trade, SO much so that it may be
conceded that she has no rival in the
state. BY way Of detail we cite her job
bling interests, her live stock, grain and
lumber trade, the goods which are
manufactured and sold from first
hands in this market, the merchandise
handled by brokers with headquarters
in this city, the vast amount of produce
raised in this V.rH'y and shipped out
by our commission houses, and the
great aggregate OF goods of all classes
sold at retail which foot up otals an
amount far ahead of ali po.n.s with
whatever pretensions or claims. That
trade is dull and collections hard is not
10 be denied. 1t is so everywhere, but
The general depression prevailing
throughout the country furnishes the
test as To what points are to survive
and where the central markets are to be
located. The comparison by this test is
20 favorable TO this city that it should
forever settle the question of her sur
vival.
Looking toward the future and taking
conservative view of what is to come
to Wichita in the way of new outlets to
DUR gulf ports, to the advantages she
must and viii have in rates by reason of
her tonnage, to the natural relation she
sustains toward the south and the
markets so freely opening out
in that direction, and the never to- be-
1ost-sight-of advantage that she COM
mands the situation for the largest area
of only partially developed territory in
the country, there is certainly cause for
encouragement, even in the midst of
these rocky times. The cold sweat
brought on by the ruinous business
policy Of the present administration
spreads its blight over our imme.
diate prospects, but its influence is coun-
teracted IN part by its being general
and by the fact that it is only temper
airy.

things. will level up the inequalities. and
