OUININE AND BAYONETS.

More destructive to the army OF
Spain in Cuba is the yellOwjack than
the guns and sabers Of the inSurgent
patriots. The Spanish troops might
possibly survive the shakes but the
yellow fever is a cavalry boss of an
other color. The Spanish government
is spending more for quinine than for
powder. The latest advices say that
the duinine contract for the Spanish
army in Cuba is $4,000 per month, OF
almost two thousand dollars per day.
IL the insurgents should fail 10 kill a
man the yellow fever would soon not
only defeat but annihilate the crowns
troops. Unacclimated, they find a
deadly foe at every turn. 1t faces
them with death night and day. There
is no possible arnistice. no white flag
of truce. It's the black flag and yellow
death. SO it is a campaign of quinine,
campaign against the ravases Of a
death dealing fever. In the interest
Of humanity. in the interest Of the
people Of Spain themselves the recocni-
zion by the United States of insurgent
rights for the patriots would be JUST
fable and praisevorthy.

IS IT PEACE OR WARP

Kansas. politically, is very murk!-
Black storm clouds are in commotlon
and their edges are streaked with a
glare that is wicked and uncomfort-
able. Both the Populist and Demo
cratic organizations having fallen down
in the matter of the chief justiceshlp
it was thought that they would fuse Oh
the county offices throughout the state.
But they have failed to do this except
in a very few instances. both the
Popuiist and Democratic parties have
practically gone to pieces so far as
any state campaign this fall is con-
cerned. That fact relieved the Repub-
licans of any necessity for state cam
paign. there being no opposition TO Its
nominee for chief justice. This would
seem to warrant party serenity and
harmony, but it doesn't. There Is
blood on the moon in administration
circles and party distraction and dis
content in all the larger cities and
towns of the state, with probably one
or two exceptions. Realizing the
troubles for the future the Atchison
Globe is urging a cessation Of hostili-
ties. That paper pleads very per-
suasively that the fight be dropped in
the interest of both the present and
future of the state. Upon the other
hand the LeavenwOrth Times adds a
fresh coat of war paint every day OF
two and renews it's declaration for
such a war as will purge the party
and clear up the political atmosphere

The most famous and most puzzling OF
all gold mines is the Mount Morgan. l.
appears, from one of the Sydney papers,
that 1t contributes more precious metal
10 the worlds treasure than any other
patch of the earih's surface of the same
extent. Mount Morgan is supposed to be
the product of a thermal spring, and is
simply mountain of geld. but OF gold
that has already been treated by nature.
In some far-of age the hill has been a
huge natural crueible. and all the gold il
contains has been already mined, chem
ically dissolved. and precipitated by ma
ture herself. No speck OF gold larger
than pins point has ever been dis
covered in the mount The precious metal
exists in a sort of golden -four, dissolved
through ironstone.

FOR THE FUN OF THE THING.

Our dispatches said that there were
three hundred thousand people on the
streets of Kansas City, Wednesday.
What were they there for, and where
We're they from? Such vast number
of people meant a million dollars day
for Kansas City. A very large per
cent of that money was in the pockets
of the people of Kansas three or four
days ago. 1t was theirs. They had
earned it and saved it, but only to
waste It, They will all return home
tired. eneryated and disguised, with
nothing to show for their money. 1t
was a tinSel parade, all color and no
substance. 1t was jam and spree
of eating and drinking and hurrah.
The profit Of the jamboree goes to
Kansas City. Missouri, the loss to the
people of Kansas. 1t was all profit
for the one, a total loss for the other.
Kansas City did the cheap fiddling and
the people of Kansas did the dancing,
and they put up roundly for the cheap
music furnished. The Kansas City
man being million dollars or SO
ahead is chuckling in his sleeves this
morning, while the Kansas man re-
turns home with a wet towel on his
fool head and a sickly smile on his
face.
But after all it must be admitted
that the majority got that for which
they went to Kansas City, and in so
far We're not cheated. They were in
search of an unrestrained holiday of
fun, sO-called. However humiliating
the admission, it is nevertheless true
that the attractions Of public holidays
will not draw in the absence Of prom
ised fun. And the fun must be Ii
censed and unrestrained. What the
lions and tigers are to the circus so are
the big pumpkins and fat pigs TO the
county or state fair. They constitute
the excuse for going, the one to see
the clown, the other to witness the
horse race. 1t is the human desire to
escape for season the restraints of
every day life. No prophet was want
ed to predict the result of the State
Fair now being held in Wichita so
far as the attendance from the out
side is concerned. as soon as it was
given out that Wichita had gone dry"
