The Interstate-commerce Commission has
decided that a railroad must take freight
offered it by steamboat companies at the
same rates that 1T takes it for a connecting
railroad. A lot Of cotton reached Mobile
en- route to New Orleans BY steamer. The

railroad was rendered and refused. The
commission declared that the road must
ship it at the same price for the steamboat
as for the railroad.

Another get-rich-quick concern has come
to grief. This time it is the Order of Tonti,
which has it's membership principally in
Pennsylvania. A recent order by the mana
gers levying 210 assessments, ag~gregating
$525 on each holder of a one-thousand-dollar
certificate. has been followed by the filing
of a bill. in equity by certain members of
a Philadelphia lodge, who ask for the ap-
pointment of a receiver. The bill makes
defendants the supreme president Of the
Order of Tonti. the supreme secretary, the
supreme treasurer and several other SUI
preme officials. This supreme nomencla-
recalls the Iron Hall business. The bill
alleges that by next May the obligations
of the order will foot up in the neighbor-
hood of 81 100000. while its assets will
amount to net more than $1,000, 600. and that
for the purpose of making up the large
deficiency an assessment styled a debit
assessment has been levied on many of
the members. including the complainants.
The facts recited in the bill show how in
%geniously the supreme managers made one
hand wash the other for a considerable
length of time. but they also reveal the
inherent fallacy and rottenness of the plan.
OF course the game had to end some time,
and those who were in when the collapse
came got caught. 1t is only a question
Of time when all such schemes must fail.

pacity costs l6i per cent more In this coun-
try than in England. and that the labor
on a ton of steel ingots costs 200 per cent.
more in this country than in British mills.
These are official statistics. The Coates
Thread Company has mills in Rhode Island
and in Scotland. For the same labor, at
tending the same kinds OF machines, s6.e2
is the wages paid here and $.06 in Scot
land. In 1885 Sir Lothian Bell, president Of
the British Iron and Steel Association. tes-
titled to a royal commission that while
each British coal miner got out from 500 to
525 tons Of coal a year, the returns from
the best American coal districts show an
average output of $50 tons per annum- In
1886 Secretary Andrew, of the Oldham Mas
ter Cotton Spinners' Association, testified
before a royal commission that "the En-
glish workman produces considerable more
work in a given space of time than those
of other nations" The labor on cutlery
costs 100 per cent. more in the United
States than in England. The labor cost
on a dozen pairs of ladies' hose in Sax
ony, Germany, is ga cents, while it is sl.75
here. Even Mr.. Schoenhof says the reason
that tailor-made clothing is higher here
than in England is because hand work is
paid much more here. If American work.
men are so much smarter as is claimed,
they ought to eliminate the difference of
wages TO hand workers like tailors.
The weakness Of business men like the
H~untingburg correspondent is that when
free-traders make such assertions they do
not demand the evidence. Instead of so
doing they accept the laboring oar by set
ting themselves TO prove that the state
ments of their adversary are false.

THEY DEMAND MORE BONDS.

That which Wall street has set its
heart upon and which it is demanding
of their man, is an issue and sale of gold
bearing government bonds. True they
have already forced one issue of fifty
millions, in face OF the indignant pro-
test of large majority of the people, but
fifty millions made only a very small
hole in the untold idle millions slowed
away in private vaults and in safety de-
posts. These hundreds of millions are
kept idle because of the unsatisfactory
economic conditicas brought about by
the political revolution which
put the Democratic party into pow
er. The owners of this wealth, having
secured it through combines and trusts
of watered stocks, and of fictitious and
speculative values, are anxious to put
their all gotten gains into such securities
as are unquestioned. They want their
interest in gold. The dividends of rail-
roads, manufactures and mines have be-
come of too uncertain tenure, The
promise and obligation of the govern
ment, even if bearing low rate of inter-
est, Is what they are demanding of the
man they made and of the party which
they placed in power. President Cleve-
land more than hints in his veto OF the
Bland bill, that had congress incorporated
In that bill provision permitting an in
crease of the gold reserve by the issu-
ance of bonds, he would not have killed
1t with his objection. Mr.. Carlisle went
before the committee and urged the
necessity of a farther bond issue in con-
nection with the contemplated coin
age of the seigniorage. The only
condition upon which silver will
be given a chance by the present
administration must involve a further
issue of gold bearing bonds.

WHAT'S AILING THE GANGq

Judge Waterbury of Emporia, a lead
ing Populist has, it seems, got his eyes
open to the character Of the men who
corralled his party and who now hold
the offices. He cries out that the "black
vomit of office-seeking has entered the
Popuiist camp, which. unless it is i'm
mediately quarantined at once, will de-
stroy the party" The judge overlooks
the fact that he was, himself, among the
first to nail an Office He, however,
says the gang must go, including State
Printer Snow, the whole state house
crew and the demagogues who through
their howl of corruption, corruptionr'
are filling the best county offices and
stealing themselves rich in the name of
reform. The judge points out the I'M
disputed fact that the state house ring
is more corrupt and less competent than
the Republican administration which it
succeeded. He demands that wire pull
ing and stealing in the Pop party shall
cease, two very Improbable if not i'm
possible things. For a judge he diagnoses
the case well but yet being afflicted with
the same disease his prescription will
hardly be swallowed by his compatriots
in trouble.

The Democratic party is noted for
being equally successful in raising a
howl over the supposed misadventures
of the Republican party and the cover
ing up of frauds in their own. OF the
half dozen scandals and outrages occur
ring within a wear probably the greatest
lie that of the armor plate frauds. Only
by an accident did the facts come out.
All the proceedings of the covering up
process, even to the action of the presi-
dent in indorsing the compromise of his
officials, were kept secret, and now
that it is all out, no one believes that
the Democratic congress will do any
thing in the premises.

AHEART'S REGRET.
IL. E. HOBBs.1

Low in the west still dimly burns,
The saffron glow where day hath set:
Behind purple bank of clouds,
It's faint beams linger yet.
/ rest my eyes with longing gaze.
Upon that dying sunset light;
know it bathes another land,
Where thou. my darling. art tonight.
1 stretch my arms toward that land,
And vainly cry. come back to me-"
Across the mocking years of time,
Ny weary heart cries out for thee,
To see thy dark and radiant eyes,
With their old love light. rare, divine;
To feel thy strong, yet tender hands,
Still warmly clasping mine!
To hear thy deep and mellow voice,
Speak low and tenderly to me.
Alas, my heart cries out in grief,
For that can never be.
I've sought in vain Lethe's cup to find,
That might quaff it and forget;
All that thou ever vert to me,
And all, my darling. thou art yet.
The memory of the far off past,
would bury down so deep;
That naught would ever raise it more,
From its eternal sleep.
The roses that thou brought so oft,
To greet me, in the days of old;
VIII soon beneath a summer sky,
Their glowing hearts unfold.
But naught can bring thee back to me,
My heart il cries in bitter pain;
For that lost paradise of mine,
Inever, never shall regainl
Kans.

DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKE.
The greatest mistake possible of th
Hoch contingent is their abuse of Maio

The greatest mistake possible of the
Hoch contingent is their abuse of Major
Morrill,. Its all well enough for those,
| to the majors location and what not,
but its too late, by at least twenty-five
wears, to reflect on Morriifs character as
a man. or his fidelity as Kansan, or
his record as Republican. 1t is proper
enough, perhaps, for such editors as are
radical woman suffragists, or for such
politicians as esteem the Murray law
the wisest enactment of civilization, and
for those who above everything else de-
sire Republican governor from the in
terror, TO urge the claims and fitness of
Ed Hoch; but all attempts to belittle
Major MCrrilfs services to the state, or
20 indulge in the least reflection upon
his character for truthfulness and
sincerity, or the impugning of his honor
or integrity, by whomsoever, the reac-
ton will be no less emphatic than,
disagreeable to such authors.
The nominees of the Republican
party this fall will need all the Re-
publican votes of the state, especially in
the event of fusion by the Populists and
Democrats. As pronounced man as
Mr.. Hoch is, touching certain so-called
advanced propositions. he would, as the
nominee, need every one of the thirty
or thirty-fve thousand liberal Republi-
can votes of his party, and he, nor his
friends, subsequent 10 such nomination,
would stop to criticise any Republican,
whatever that Republicans convictions
might be touching the subject of female
suffrage or his habits as to beer drinking
or cigarette smoking. Undoubtedly
nearly or quite all of the right minded,
as also very big majority of the truly
good and sanity people of the state, are
members OF the Republican party, still
it is not known as a saint party, but as
political party. The EAGLE has, In great
good glee, whacked 4 number of fellows
who have been posing as Major
MorrIlfs friends, also such others
as have presumed to speak for him,
for which we have no apologies,
but when any writer or other
individual insinua;es that E. n. Morrill,
lied when he protested against the decla-
ration which sought to make him respon
sible for the talk of the gang, or when it
is insinuated that he would or could be
guilty of a questionable action either in
politics or in business, it will be found,
at the end, that Major Morrill, nor his
cause has suffered, but that that of such
opposition has. Everything else being
equal it is proper that each candidate
should be endorsed and sustained by his
locality, but vast majority of the Re-
publicans of the state live outside of the
counties of Brown, Wyandotte and
Marion and such outside majority will
choose between the respective claims,
fitness and localities of Hoch, Martin
and Morrill,. and having chosen will pro-
coed to confirm their choice.
This is year in which it will be no
more dangerous TO load down the plat !
form with side issues than to load down
candidates with failings and charges
which at The bottom are lies.
