Another thing growing out of this fact is dwelt upon by the vice president in his letters home, and that Is the won derfu1 salubrity of the Alaskan climate. The far-away territory would undoubt- edly be great health resort were 1t not for the expense of reaching it and the popular ignorance of it's resources in this respect. Mr. Stevenson seems likely to return laden with native spoil. He has already amassed a collection of shells and birds, including the white heron, which, according to tradition, makes a rope lasso of its own neck. All these wonders will be brought back next winter.
 Meantime, MT. Stevenson continues in New York to be the great dark horse among presidential possibilities. It will be remembered that he owes his nomination to the vice presidency to Tammany. That organization proposes to do for him next year similar serv- ice, but on a bigger scale. Stevenson is the one man capable of reconeiling all the factions in New York. There may be very interesting developments connected with the vice presidents 'fboom" before many weeks.

The Sizzling Truth.

The Atchison Globe says that the
mistake made by Governor Morrill,
was in admitting the truth about the
prohibitory law. There is a great deal
in that little remark. AS long as every
body will shut their eyes anc lie about
the matter, pretending that the law is
strictly enforced. as almost every man
does who gives statistics" TO other
states wanting prohibition laws. every
thing runs smoothly, the prohibition
list has his prohibition and the whisky
man has his whisky. But let some
man incidentally drop a red hot siZzl-
ing truth into sight in reference TO the
matter, and he is at once jumped upon.

with all kinds of things. The red hot,
sizzling truth that We are going TO
give you now may bring down the
wrath of many righteous upon us, but
we are going to tell il just 10 make the
air seem clear: There are not dozen
towns in the state of Kansas today
where any man who wants whisky may
not get it if he has the price. And he
does not have 10 search long for 1t,
either. This is prohibition as il pro-
hibits in Kansas today. If that be trea-

WILL KANSAS CITY HOLD HER OWN?


Presumably because of the lack of
anything else sensational to talk about
the Times sprung proposition a few
weeks ago TO make Kansas City q
metropolis of half million people,
in which connection that paper offered
a chrome or other kind of prize, to the
enterprising individual who should fur
nish the most feasible plan. Its edi-
tor kept on daily dilating upon the TAX
ing subject until the interest Of the
more imaginative was aroused, since
which time there has been 4 steady
stream of hoW-tO-dO-itS poured into his
columns. 1t is harmless amusement
in the absence of the only thing that
ever did build city-busineSs. Among
the multitudinous schemes and propo-
sitions is one favoring the organization
of club to be known as 1.-The Half Il
Million" which club is to have put 1T
their disposal one-half million dollars.
AS there are no membership fees or
dues necessary and big pile of money
among all the others of equal imprac-
ticability, to which the Times takes.
1t is not our put in, but at this distance
1t strikes us as diSintereSted out
slider that it would be more TO the point
for the Times to offer a prize for the
most feasible plan for Kansas City to
hold her own. We are not unmindfuI
Of the great advantage of that magnifi-
cent waterway, whereby Kansas City
has been enabled To get freight from
Galveston, by way of Wichita, for less
than one-half what Wichita is COMPEL
ed to pay, nor of the gall necessary to
the claim that the state of Kansas means
commercially speaking, Kansas City,
Missouri, nor yet would we deny that
there will be great city at the mouth
Of the Kaw, THE Half Million club"
and its 100000 even left out of the
estimate, yet it remains for US to be
convinced that said great city will be
on the Sni Hill side of the line. The
real basis for commercial greatness at
the rivervalley confluence at that point
are the glue and stink, the dirt and
squeal of its pens, and the dust and
smoke Of its elevators and packing
plants. These are the basic values.
and these are not in Missouri and
never will be. and the Kansas City
which interests the Times is in Mis-
souri,.
The five hundred thousand town Will
develop in all good time. but its prop
erty will pay taxes TO Kansas, mostly.
and half its population. or more, will
be on this side of the line, which line
separates the old and conservative
from the new and progressive. And
in this connection we are reminded
that the consolidation of the towns on
this side OF the line was 4 good thing
for Kansas, but the name was wholly
in the interest Of the Missouri name
sake who in that name still reaps half
of her glory.

WILDCAT CURRENCY.

There is one hope remaining to Cleve-
land and Carlisle to hold the south to
its historic adherence 10 the Demo
cratic party. That hope is in the re-
peal of the currency tax. 1t is now
asserted by the friends of both that the
one in his report and the other in his
message to congress will earnestly in
Sist on the repeal Of the tax of 10 per
cent upon state bank circulation. The
measure having failed in the house of
its friends. how it is expected that Il
Republican house will take it up and
pass the repeating measure is not eX-
planned. But having lost the conf
dence and good will of the south some
thing must be done. In face of the
demand for silver that something must
be in the line of an increased currency.
So the old wildcat currency will be
advocated. q system Of banking long
since repudiated for its unsafeness. OF
course if the national law levying 10
per cent on all state bank issues We're
repealed the country would be flooded
with the bills of broken banks in Il
very short time unless the repeating
law or some new enactment could pro-
vide and prescribe the securities TO
be carried by the issuing banks. AS
a whole the administration scheme of
Reinforcement is of doubtful promise.

THAT MAJORITY SENTIMENT.

A young gentleman. presumably a
local aspirant for future honors and
the emolumentS of office, drops us 4
note Of inquiry. He wants TO know
how local sentiment can stand In the
way of the enforcement Of any law,
however obnoxious it may be TO the
majority. He then submits the prop0-
sitiOn that should a county attorney
and sheriff and judge combine, Or
singley, nobly brave majority senti-
ment, and go in, determined to enforce
any law, without reference to its pa
ularity, or otherwise, what power IN
der heavens could hinder them, or he
from succeeding, without reference to
the governor, the police commissioners
or anybody else d.
That kind of talk is very well for the
platform or stump for him who has
no ambition for office himself or party,
and none for his friends, but Is prac-
teal proposition it is without sense.
1t is even unnecessary TO answer such
a proposition in definite or even a
general way. 1t ought to answer itself.
SO we leave it to our friend to answer
himself, by telling Us what would be-
come Of his attorney, his sheriff and his
Judge at the next ensuing election in
any community, with the majority
against them, TO say nothing OF the
findings of the average JUT.1 when they
know that the sentiment of the com
munity, in which they live, does not
indorse the prosecution.
This is a wicked world at best. and
too many things are away off wrong,
but fortunately or unfortunately, living
as we do. under a government Of ma
jOrities, you can't hang a murderer
even if the court and jury are con-
WINGED that the majority believe that
the victim deserved his fate.
AS for his last question, all that
Governor Morrill, said in that inter-
view, and he said the same thing in
his message, was that it is difficult to
enforce law that is opposed by the
majority sentiment of the community
in which such law is sought TO be en-
forced.

A DIAMOND BASIS.

Our only reply TO the Capitals OBJ
lection 10 the Eagles claim for n BIZ
metallic basis is our assertion that
neither does gold circulate 1t costs
about three hundred dollars cash per
day TO run the Capital. yet we venture
nothing in saying that the editor OF
the Capital has not had a gold piece
Of money in his pocket once in a coon's
age. ON an average. How much silver
coin could be kept in actual circulation
depends on the denomination Of the
notes of issue. But with bank and
treasury notes, great or small, gold
cannot be kept in circulation so long
as it commands the price per ounce
that it does now. Gold is rs inconyen-
lent in one direction as silver is in the
other. 1t is not the gold coin or silver
