THE EAGLES ENGLISH.

Our esteemed contemporary, of the
capital, Of like name if not of like
meaning, complains that it can't under
stand our English. That's unfortu-
nate-fOr the Capital; besides, one
likes to be understood by his own
! household, as it were. However We
Go not seem doomed entirely to
stranded lonliness and neglect. Among
| the more prominent of the exchanges
reaching our table today we find a
quotation each from the Eagle, in the
New York Post, the Cincinnati Times
Star, the Cleveland Leader, the San
Francisco Call, the New York Mer-
curry, and three in the Denver News,
one of the latter being the body of our
editorial on British Bondage" Be
cause we failed to note any quotations
from our esteemed in the metropoli-
tan sheets named it would not be fair
to say there were none. If there were
they were undoubtedly reproduced as
striking compositions Of elegant Eng
Hsh.
But, conceding the unequalled ex-
cellence Of our contemporary, as also
the evident necessity of transmitting
it diagram calculating the humiliat-
ing fact that we ''don't know no Eng
lish," and that it is unbecoming in us
to complain Of being credited with
other peoples sentiments, which hap
pen to coincide with his fin di steele
ldiOSyncraSieS, we nevertheless feel
that it is unjust to the criticized for
failing to remain quiescent while his
impecunious anonymous correspond
ents, whose ambition seems equally
divided between between the. chances
of airing their SmartneSS and win
ming So reward, are rubbing it in on
us. The TRANSACTIONS or explanations
of our delineatiOn Of Topeka's pecul-
iarities, eSsayed by the Capitals cor
respondents, are exactly what anyone
would have expected from regular
readers Of that sheet. They may be
either mundane or of the celestial
transcendent, but whatever, they will
not fail of appreciatiye respone from
the only people under the sun who
will, in claiming to understand also
concede their wit. If the conglom-
crate contributions in yesterday morn
ing's Capital touching the English of
the Eagle be English as she is writ then
are we confirmed in our longtime es-
innate that no writers under heaven
cOul6 successfully and accpnta hlv adit
the newspapers Of Topeka, the ones
now holding down that job solely saved
and accepted.

memory of the beautiful things said by
Sappho, the sprightly love songs Of
Ovid, the wit of Horace and the sagac-
ity of Socrates fade into misty forget
fulness and give way to a perennial
desire to slave for a diseased and
sOmnOlent buck Indian, whose knowl-
edge of literature is nil, whose intelli-
gence is only awakened in the form Of
mOnOtOnOuS grunt, and whose ambi-
tons extend no further than from one
meal of raw cow to another meal of

Will May Heron go back to her
tribe and fall in with it's barbarous
Incidence, savage appetiteS and de-
PRAYED desires in every avenue Of a
life that is mOnotonously meagre of any
energy, ambition or hope:
The lamentable fact is that that is
what May will probably do. 1t is re-
ported that she will try to educate her
tribe. The American Indian is a
queer mixture. Education reaches
him TO a certain extent. He may ap-
preciate it slightly if kept away from
his tribe. But once in touch with the
communicating influences of his tribe
and his mouth closes. He knows moth
ing. He cannot talk. His frock coat
and tailor-made trousers are shed over
night, and he appears decolette the
next day with his savage brothers,
happy and contented, and despising
the white mans education as much as
he despiseS the white man himself.
In this connection a new feature of
the Lulu Blind episode reaches the
Eagle. 1t will be remembered that
Lulu was sold for fifteen ponies and
that Lulu demurred. What was not
published and which has just come
to hand was that Lulu herself was the
most anxious member Of her family

A WORLDWIDE WORD.

From the converting of central COM
mittees, the wrangling in political con-
| ventions and the space devoted to it
by all the leading journals of the
| country without regard to party, the
casual reader might be led to believe
| that the silver question was occupy
| ing the attention of the American pub
and that America is aioat and particu-
larry interested. While it is true that
its Importance has crowded the tariff
and other political and economical in
terest into the background, it is never
theleSS equally true the silver question
is agitating the peoples of all the ma
tons Of central and western Europe.
In England where the money-lending
classes own everything, including the
crown, house of lords and parliament,
hampered by monometalliSm. The
merchants and manufacturers of Man
chester have raised 100000 dollars
to fight the gold hOrdeS of Lombard
street. The incomes of the nobility
of England is chiefly through land
rentals, which owing to the demoneti-
cation of silver have, in twenty years.
shrunken 1868, 100000. And so the
pOmpous British blue-blood, as well
as the tradesmen, is kicking about the
stringency Of a condition which clips
his plumage and curtails his eXpendi-
lures. And SO we find backing the
merchants of Manchester the Dukes
Of Sutherland and of Portland sub
scribing each 5000 to the guarantee
fund for international bimetallism, and
the Duke Of Fife, Earl of Marlborough,
Lord Ashburton and Sir Charles Ten
nant subscribing $500 each for the
same purpose.
There appears in Berlin, the capital
of Germany, the Bimetallische Monats-
schrift, the organ of the German sill
yer party. Back of this new departure
are the encouraging words of Bismarck
and the declaration Of the emperor to
the effect that he will stoutly adhere
TO his purpose Of a bimetallic inter
national conference.
And so Of other countries. The
Bimetallic League of France is urging
the French government to action with
a view Of restoring silver, its last re-
port recommending a return of that
country 'to a pure and simple free
coinage of silver At Brussels. in
Belgium, Alfonso Allard, a commits
sioner to the last international con-
ference, in an address declares that
the fall Of prices is not due to over
production Of commodities, but to the
scarcity of money caused by the de-
of silver. He farther
declared that the only real remedy for
the industrial and commercial depres-
sion is to rehabilitate silver.
These incidental instances cited are
but an earnest Of the real demand be-
ing made by a world of interests
for the restoration Of the oldest prim-
airy money known to civilization, as
they are sufficient to effectually an
null the cuckoo cry being passed all |
along the goldbug line of newspapers
in the country to the effect that "the |
silver craze is dying out"

CUBA SHOULD BE OURS

The average American sympathizes
with him of whatever land who is
striking for freedom, and so it is not
surprising that the report comes that
hundreds of Americans in improvised
boats are running under the very noses
of Spanish warships and landing on
the soil Of insurgent Cuba. The fact
that the chances are against the people
of that taI-ridden ilsand makes no
difference to the American who takes
such risks - help him who longs for
freedom. The American scornS both
the powers and claims Of the rotten
old Spanish dynasty, all the more so
that many Of the insurgents of the
island are Americans. But these sym
pathizers are confronted with a new
difficulty. Not only do Spanish gun
boats patrol the American waters, but
our own cruisers are doing a similar
service for Spain. by rigidly enforcing
the neutrality law. and United States
marshils in cities along the coast are
on the alert TO suppress all movements
attempted in this country 10 aid the
Cuban insurrection- Yet the flibus-
tiers are not suppressed. One large

dents proclamation was issued, and az
