TEXAS WANTS ALL
J. &. PURDAY SAYS THAT STATE
WILL TAKE KANSAS CORN.

Drouth has Made the Crop in Texas Fall
ure and She VIII have to Depend Upon
Kansas for Her supply-The Long Pro
tracted Drouth was Broken Thursday
But the Rains Came Too Late to Save
the Crop-Texas Anxious to Establish a
Permanent Trade With Kansas-Ad-
vantages Gained by an Elevator.
III. Purdy Of the Texas Pacific rail
road was in the city yesterday visiting
his family who reside here. Mr.. Pur-
Nv was for a number of years connected
with the Missouri Pacific in this city
and always claims Wichita as his home.
He came for the purpose of taking
his family on an excursion TO the noun
sains for a months outing and the
company left last night on their west
ern trip
AIr. Purdy called at the Eagle office
to order the Eagle TO be sent TO the
mountains as ne knew the family would
be lost without the paper which has
visited the family regularly for the past
ten years. In speaking TO a reporter
for the Eagle yesterday Mr.. Purdy said
kansas, and especially Kansas far
n1ers Will be strictly in il this year.
Corn in Texas is a failure. The long
continued drouth has done its work,
and as a result Texas will necessarily
have TO depend upon Kansas for her
corn, and this Will make a market. close
at home for every bushel of corn, both
Of this year and last year in the state
Of Kansas.
Il never saw such a prospect for corn
In my life as is 10 be witnessed in Kan
sash today, and / am glad that it will
india market close to home. The de-
maThd for corn viii come from the south
this syear, and this will place the prod
ucerS and consumers within short dis
tance Of each other.
The people of Texas are very en-
thusiastic about the building OF a per-
manent trade between Kansas and Tex
rs, and every article written with ref
erence to the elevator projct is watched
with the closest interest, and when the
states does not demand the crop 1t will
furnish an outlet 10 foreign ports thro'
Its deep water channels.
There is no doubt but what an eie-
vator will be built at Wichita, and that
at no distant day, with a capacity of a
million bushels, but the question now
is whether or not il will be a public /
or private institution. If it is a pub |
Tic elevator then it Will be under the |
laws of the state, and the people will |
get the advantages Of the reduced rates |
which are given for large shipments. |
If it iSsa private elevator, the proprie- |
tors viii set the price and reap the !
benefits derived from the same. A /
public elevator will aid in making the !.
city permanent basing line not only |
for grain but for other shipments while l
a private elevator will gain private ac-
cessions only for the grain.
Tell the farmers of Kansas TO take /
courage that things are coming their
way this year and they need not get /
scared about any overproduction.W While
there Is a big production there is also
a big consumption awaiting to be sup
piled"

Better Brains.

If we can trust the Cuban cor
respondents of the New York
papers, the running fight
from Lechusa to the seacoast
the other day, when the Span
iards by their own admission,
failed to hold the enemy, was
the most remarkable battle
of this, in many ways, re-
markable revolution. 1t ap-
pears to he the fact that the
Spaniards had Maceo and
his little army surrounded by
a square formed by the very
bert troops of Spain now on
the island. This square was
daily being madesma!ler and
it's sides 'cosrespondingly
strengthened as the area was
lessened. Through this how
ever, Maceo broke with small
loss and got clean away with
his victory. So great is the
Spanish chagrIn that one
general in command has been
suspended.
Such work as this on the
part of the revolutiohists can
only mean that they have
the better military brains OF
the two contestants, or, at

Silver In Mexico.

A resident OF Mexico, writ
ing OF the use of silver in that
country, suggests two prop
ositions in reply to two of
the propositions laid down
by Secretary Carlisle. He
says: "!There is not a silver
standard country in the
world today. bit whose pro-
ducers md manufacturers are
more prosperous than they
ever were b.fOre." And he
adds: ''There is not a gold
standard country in the
world today whose produc.
ers, manufacturers and ex.
porters are as prosper ods as
they have been in the past. "
II these two propositions
are true, they should have
more weight than all the
propositions submitted by
Carlisle. That both propo-
sitioDs are true can be easily
proven. 1t ia a we'll known
fact that the silver usiEg
countries have recently been
making rapid progress in the
production of wealth, and it
is just as we'll known that f.
nancial depression pervades
every gold standard country
in the world. The test oi
good legislation is, does it
contribute to general pros
perity? The gold standard
has notoriously failed to
benefit the masses. A gold
standard means an appreci-
ating money; an appreciating
dollar means falling prices;
falling prices mean hard
times.

Douglass was evidently
