| issues of the present administration,
| and which passed with such unani-
| nifty, there being only six cuckoo
votes recorded against it, meets with
| general approval as a move in the
right direction. Nothing could better
demonstrate the sincerity and earnest
ness of the senate in this matter than
did its willingness to give seeming
Endorsement of PETER, in order to reach
| the administration disgraceful record
on this bond question. The amended
form of the resolution, which places
the work of investigation in the hands
| of the senate finance committee, in
stead of a special committee, as at
| first provided for, by no means
abridges the scope Of the work to be
performed, and in no way embarrasses
the accomplishment Of the object de-
sired This investigation will be a
severe blow to the administration. 1t
will disclose as nothing else SO well
can, the animating spirit and secret
methods of the politico-fnanciering
coalition which has run this govern
ment for the last three years. This
combination will be bound to have its
two principle nerve centers strategic
ally located-the one in the White
House and the other in Wall street.
The purchasers and holders of the
government bonds issued under this
administration, and issued. as we be-
lieve, illegally, will not suffer any loss
through this investigation. The bonds
of this nation are never repudiated,
and no man is allowed to lose a cent
by owning them. They are always
good for their face value in any part
of the world. This is equally true of
the bonds in question. They were
improperly issued, because the author
ity to borrow money on the credit OF
the United States" is alone invested by
the constitution in congress, and con-
gress did not authorize these bond
issues. The administration cannot fall
1874 and 1915. These acts simply
authorized the issue Of bonds for spe-
cifcally expressed purposes. These
purposes did not include in any way
the increase of the governments obli-
cations. They went no further than
to provide for the readjustment of the
obligations already existing on a new
basis. Still, the bonds in question will
undoubtedly be recognized and legaliz-
ed by the next congress, with appro-
pirate accompanying condemnation of
the methods employed by the admin
istratiOn in their issue.
This investigation will be Of incal-
culable advantage and service if it
shall result, as we believe it will, in
re-establishing the clearly defined con-
stitutional limitations of the admins
trative and legislative branches Of the
government on this important subject.

wEYLER AND THE NEWSPAPERS.

American correspondents Of news
papers give Weyler more trouble APP
parently than the insurgents, but it is
only apparently. 1t is fortunate for
Weyler that he didn't execute the Kan
sas boy, who is doubtless a newspaper
correspondent. The first batch of
Americans murdered in Cuba is going
to raise a furore that even Cleveland
can't represS or stay. Mr.. James
Creelman, correspondent of the New
York World at Havana, and Mr.. Fred
erick W. Laurence, representing the
New York Journal, have been ordered
out of Cuba on the ground that they
have illuminated General Weyler and
the army, and had attributed 10 the
latter crimes committed by the insur-
gents. General Weyler would have
been wiser to have given no reason at
all; for the reason assigned is not only
incredible in itself-the correspondents
named being journalists OF eminence
and experience-but it is contradicted
by official and unofficial advices re-
ceived in Washington. A safe deduc-
ton is that the exiles have been driven
out of camp for having told the truth,
and through fear that they might tell
some more about Spanish atrocities.
The deportation of these correspond
ents, however, is not going to stop the
truth telling, nor will it strengthen
General Weylers sway in Cuba or add
to his prestige with the home govern
'ment Its inevitable effect will be to
inspirit the insurgent cause; and be-
ing one of the plaineSt signals Of dis
treSS which Weyler has yet hoisted, il
may likely enough pave the way for
his return TO Spain.

EDUCATION AND RELIGION.

at is quite impossible 10 meet the
question of education" says the New
York Churchman, without taking into
consideration the place religion should
occupy in the training of young people.
If We were TO put the difference be-
tween intellectual and religious edu-
cation in a nutshell, we should say
that the one teaches human being his
place in the world, the other his place
in the universe. To teach a child or a
youth his place in the world is To bring
him 10 realize his position with regard
to other men. 4 school or college
teaches the pupil his own mental
worth, in comparison with that of
others with whom be has been thrown
in competition. He learns his own
powers. and how they may be supple
mented by the acquisitions OF litera-
ture and learning. and the appliances
of art and science. he is enabled TO
do more than he could do before, and
the place of active exertion in society
for which his powers and attachments
fit him he is guided into discovering.
This is al that mere mental training
can Go for anyone. But s. human

MEx1oo's FREE SILVER PROSPERITY

There are many indications that
Mexico has entered upon an era of
grand development, and among them,
none more assuring than efforts of the
government to promote all industrial
activities. Those in authority seem
ties, and resolutely determined to de-
part from the old policies which kept
the country either in a state of revolu-
ton or in a condition OF general leth-
argy. Travellers all agree that the
country is in more prosperous con-
!dition than at any previous period in
the history Of the republic. New rail
ways are in process of construction,
manufacturing interests under the
new order of things have received an
impetus hitherto unknown, extensive
coffee plantations are being opened up,
and agriculture under the inspiration
of renewed vitality and improved
methods together with an infusion OF
Quickening American energy from
without, is contributing its full share
to the general prosperity. But above
all education of the masses, long
neglected, under governmental direc-
ton, is making rapid advancement, so
that she promises soon to be the newer
Mexico mentally, as well as physically.
And yet this highly prosperous and
happy neighbor OF ours, Is one OF those
miserable semi-barbarous silver-us-
ing countries, so-called by Wall street
and its goldite understrappers. and a
hireling press. Why, Oh We financial
wiseacres Of the east, ye evilbodiag
owls Of evil and prophets of disaster. is
Mexico so prosperous under the do
minion Of the accursed white metal, IL
all your dismal prophecies be true?
Why-as IS well known 20 all the
worlds foreign capital seeking IN
vestment in this land Of the Montezu-
mas, laden down as 1t Is with the silver
chains OF slavery that are dragging il
heading to perdition?

CAN'T MOST ALWAYS TELL.

Morrill,, Troutman and Potter have
been assuring the people that which
ever Of them receives the nomination,
there will be only harmony in the Re-
publican party and solid front in No
vember. Major Hood, who is thought
by many would make a stronger can
didate than either, and Judge Peters
is only to be a candidate in the event
of Morrill, finally concluding that Lee
lands advice was both friendly and
sound, haven't been heard from, but
they would probably hold to the same
declaration. An office-seeker or can
didate could hold to nothing else.
Nevertheless there is anything but
unanimity in the party at present and
its rank and file is not wholly alluded
to. A candidate may raise an issue
or face one, but he can never lay one
once it has been raised. There is
trouble in the Second district over the
nomination of Harris. Harris is 4
good man and would have made a
good candidate for governor. It's not
the man, but the way he was nominal
ed which is at the bottom Of the
trouble, which If not smoothed over
may lose him both Douglas and Wy
andotte counties, in which bolts have
been organized.

No one wants the youth Of the land
TO be an irresponsible ephemeral."
But the greater sentiment in this coun-
try, whether it is the better or not, has
long demanded that sectarian differ
ences be kept out of the public schools.
Religion has in no wise been kept out
of the schools. Every lesson in q Nc

This the country will never demur TO.
But when the pupil is asked TO dis
criminate in his infant mind between
the Baptist branch of the faith or the
Methodist or any other, the country
does object seriously.
All churches show an overweening
desire to mold the infant mind to GER
tain religious forms and symbols when
it is at the fictile age, for the purpose
Of securing 1t to the church so molding
beyond doubt when the youth arrives
at more mature age.
But the sentiment of the country
rebels against this practice. The con-
tentiOn is that the mind of a child, in
the absence OF religion, cannot be
harmed by education and that the
questions of infinity and a universal
God can be dealt with without harm
full prejudice at an age when school
education is completed.
This sentiment is founded on an in

CONDITION OF WHEAT.
Great Bend, Kan, May 10th,

Great Bend, Kan, May 10th. 1885.
TO the Editor of the Eagle
Much speculation has been made on
the condition of the winter wheat in CEN
trail and western Kansas. Here in Bar
ton county, since the rain, the wheat Is
in good condition. With few exceptions
our farmers claim that the red or brown
leaves on the wheat gave it the appear
ance Of dead, but on investigation they
find the main stock alive. and when it
joints the dead leaves below joint will
drop off and all the new leaves will be
above the joint and the stalk will will
sap the ground so much and make the
head larger and the berry more plump,
and the wheat will grade better on mar
ket. So we think in the end we are still
hopeful of a bountiful crop. Our corn,
oats, barley, alfalfa also fruit, is all up
to this time, in good shape. and we all
feel sure of as good a crop as we ever had
in Barton county. A c. BARRETT.
