WILL HAVE TO PAY.

South Carolina was cheated out of a
big portion of her railroad taxes last
wear, because of the action of receivers,
the big end of the entire railway sys-
TEN being in the hands of the courts.
When the constables attempted to en-
force collection by tying up the rolling
stock of a road the courts would arrest
and fine and Jail them for contempt.
The house of National representatives
has just passed bill which provides
that railroads in the hands OF court
and its receivers shall be as powerless to
dodge taxation as if in the hands of a
corporation or Individual. If the court
is convinced that the taxes are too high
or unjust it can apply for readjustment
lust as an individual.
The bill is right and should become a
law

post he passed. he was happy-go-
lucky sort of dog, but one whose per
sonal characteristics plainly indicated
he was out for fight with anything
that walked or stood on four legs.
Suddenly the brindle dog came oppc-
site the red-painted lion. The sport"
felt the chain tighten suddenly. He
looked back to ascertain the new csrse
for delay.
The brindle bulls eyes were popping
from his head in his anxiety to reach
the red lion. He strained and tugged
at his chain until it seemed his collar
would cut his head of. All the hair on
his back stood up in anger and def
snce, and the game pup" growled .
defiance TO the enemy.
Of course the red lion looked straight
ahead.
Angered to frenzy by this nonchal-
ance, the dog made one final tug and
pulled his master several feet nearer
the object of his wrath.
With yelp of mingled rage and de-
light the dog sprang upon his towering
adversary and made a grab for the
lions ear. His teeth came down on the
coveted hold" with a clank.
The red lion never winked.
Mr. Bull Pup fell TO the pavement.
He looked up at the iron lion; his tail
skunk between his legs, and his head
dropped. He sneaked OF at hi. own
er's heels, who remarked:
Il guess the next time you goes up
against a cold deck you'll get yer teeth
filed"
The crest fallen dog seemed TO think
the suggestion good.
And the red lion looked straight
ahead.

THERE IS WORK AHEAD.

The EAGLE hopes that the Republican
central committee of Sedgwick county
realizes the importance of organization
this year. Close, systematic organiza-
ton by township and ward was never so
| necessary. 1t will not be a campaign
in which spread-eagle speeches viii
count for so much. 1t will be one OF
earnest work. But will it do to rely
upon the supposition that because the
more intelligent have been disguised
and alarmed by turns with the high
handed and corrupt way in which the
affairs and institutions of the state have
been conducted for the past two years
that everything will go the other way
this fall? a large majority CT the men
who put Lewelling and Artz. and Chase
and Osborn, and Todd and Mrs. Lease,
and that whole Pullman palace party
into power are blind to tie incompe-
tencY and dishonesty of their leaders
and will vote for them again. They are
so STEPPED in their prejudice that shutting
and perfdy seem marks of sweetness to
be commended. The Democratic party
is an uncertain quantity. One-haif OF
the Democrats of Kansas have no idea
today of for whom or what they Will
vote this fall. Under the circumstances
the effort should be for thorough poll
ing of every precinct and full R-pub-
licau vote in November. The Republic
can party has the requisite number for
pronounced victory if rallied to a man.
They do not need convinci ng SO much as
individual responsibility, The press
will Go Its part-it always does, but in
such a close campaign as this in which
the action of the Democrats up to the
last minute will remain an uncertain
problem, personal and Individual influ.
ence is of the utmost consideration.
Every wavering Republican, every old
time Republican who has been
led away by the vagaries of
wild dreamers, only because of the hard
times, should be counseled-appealed to,
The state can only hope for relief
through Republican victory and restor-
ed credit. A Pop legislature VIII prove
the death knell to all enterprise or hopes
of farther progress.
The claims of candidates are well
enough,-their individual fitness import
ant, but the present central committee
should get everything into ship shape for
most effective FORK upon the part or the
new committee, to be chosen and organ
lied on the meeting of the nominating
cc~vention. august 18th. By Septem-
Ter 10Th or October fst the Republicans
of Sedgwick county ought to be all in
line for earnest systematic work.

a POLITICAL OPINION.

Justice Brewer Of the United States
supreme court. is spending his vacation
in Topeka with his son-in-law. a Cap
ital reporter interviewed Judge Brewer
on many leading questions of the time.
In speaking of the causes which led up
to the financial depression, and the later
labor troubles, the justice said:
Business had been done upon a specu-
lative basis for some time and l think that
in the attendant liquidation there would
have been financial I ouble anyhow" Mr..
Brewer replied. However, the tariff
question and the silver agitation had their
effects upon the country and intensified
the situation. With due respect to Mr..
Cleveland, / believe he should have called
a special session Of congress in March i'm
mediately after his Inauguration. His
party had come into power upon promises
of tirif reform and every one was ex-
pectaut Of changes. Those who had
any idea of investing money in new bust
ress enterprises abandoned the thoug ht
until the question of protection should be
settled Ia some way. They cannot be
blamed for that. If | had had any idle
money at that time do not believe that
would have invested it either. The Amer
lean people adjust themselves easily to
Legislative changes, and had the call been
made then for special session in all prob
ability the Democrats would have been
able 10 pass II tariff bill. They would have
felt their party pledges more keenly tnan
they 90 at present"

a GREAT SACRIFICE.

From the New York Sun.
It cost Uncle Sam over 1000, 900 men
to place the American flag in the
proud position it occupies to-day
among the nations of the earth. In
the war of the revolution SAP seamen
of the regular navy were killed in bat
tie, while considerably larger num-
Der were killed in the privateers that
played such an important part in that
struggle. OF the 542 seamen killed,
81 persisted when the United States
2S-gun frigate Randolph, Capt. Nicholas
Biddle, was blown up by shot from
the British 74-gun ship of the line Var
mouth, March Z, IT'S, which Biddle
had heroically attacked in order that
his valuable convoy of seven YES
sci might escape. About the
same number of soldiers were
killed in the land battles, but
this does not include the $500 Ameri-
cans who died in the British prison
ships in Wallabout bay. In all $4,000
men persisted in these ships, but about
1900 of them were French sailors
captured near the American coast.
The total number of Americans who
lost their lives in the revolution is
about 70 900. In the wars with France
and Tripoli, 119s to 1905, about 175
Americans were killed. This does not
include the number who died in the
French dungeons at Guadeloupe or in
the slave pens at Tripoli, of whom no
accurate estimate can be made. In
. G,., E III
sea fights in which the regular govern
ment cruisers were engaged. But this
does not include the number lost by
shipwreck, the sloop-of-war Wasp
laundering at sea with all hands (1s3)
on board. Neither does this include the
loss in American privateers, which was
nearly equal to that sustained by the
navy. The number of killed in land
battles was about $50, so that the total
loss in the war of 1912 is about 1000
men. In the war with Algiers, 1915,
Mexico, 1916 TO 1S4s. and in the minor
conflicts between 1915 and 1860, about
1000 men were killed in battle.
But the greatest losses, of course,
were in the civil war, where brother
was arrayed against brother. Probably
not more than 1900 600 men of the
north effectively participated in sup
pressing the rebellion. OF these, $1,000
were killed in battle and 5000 died of
wounds in hospitals, while 1884,
600 died from disease coz
tracted in the army. OF the
10000 colored men enlisted, %, PCS
died from disease. No accurate esti-
mate OF the losses sustained By the
southerners has been made, but it Is
probable that they were fully equal to
those sustained by the northerners,
bringing the total to about 100000.
Adding 70 this number the 100000 who
We're permanently disabled by disease
or crippled by wounds we have the ap-
palling aggregate OF a million men lost
in that strife. OF the 100000 confeder-
ates who were made prisoners during
the war 1886 died of wounds or dis
ease during their captivity. OF the
unionists about 200. 900 were made pris-
oners. of whom about 10000 died in
prison. From the figures it VIII be
seen that Memorial day is in honor Of
over million men who have given up
their lives or limbs in the defense Of
the flag.

CUTTING OFF EMIGRATION.

Ii there is a live cue stion with the
American people today 1t is that of
foreign emigration. 1t is talked
everywhere. Politicians alone dread

interests Of the country has not been
settled satisfactorily. Population is de-
sirable, meaning greatness. 20 which end
foreign emigration has been encouraged.
