Colonel Funston Tells Of the Spanish

Colonel Funston talking to q
Hutchinson News reporter about the
coming war with Spain said: The

men. The Cubans are also very poor
shots. In case of an American army
going to Cuba I do not think the in

and guiders. Their discipline and
methods of fighting are such that
they would really be in tie way dur
ing a battle.

supposed. I had as soon campaign

There are many who will remem
ber the 'On to Richmond" cry of the
news paper Major Generals, headed
by Horace Greeley, in 1861, and they
will also remember that the conse
quence was Bull Run and other
minor disasters. There are news
paper Major Generals today, and
their ''On to Cuba" cry has q very
familiar sound to elderly ears.
These aper "offcers'-''tin soldiers
appear to be utterly blind to the
fact that something besides yawp is
needed to win battles on sea or on
land. There must be thorough pre-
paration SO that, if war does come,
there may be no '.Bull Runs" to again
spread a black pail over the land.
War is not declared by correspon-
dents, nor won by editors. Congress
does the one. and to men in battle
array armel with deadly weapons in.

other, and not to the shriekers Of ION

To Walk Across the Ocean

Captain William G. Oldrieve. Of
Boston. has planned to walk across
the Atlantic ocean. He will begin
his journey July 4th, and will be ac-
companid by Captain William A.
Andrews, of New York, famous by
reason of his voyage across the At
lantic in small boat.
It is nothing new for Captain o.
drieve to promeDde the waves. That
has been his pleasure and profit these
ten years. Captain Andrews, who is
to be his companion of the water Pc
destrian, will journey in brand new
fourteen foot sail boat, and in this
merely repeats a feat performed in
1878 and again in 1892.
Captain Andrews is really the man
who has brought about the whole af-
fair. Here is his own statement:
"Increditable as it may seem, next
year we are really going to walk and
sail down Boston harbcr, out on the
ocean and over to Havre, France,
through the great bore of the river
seine and on up to Paris, to be there
to attend the exposition in 1900 in our
new seagoing shoes, and the small
est, fastest and best boat that ever
crossed the Atlantic ocean, the Phan
tomship. Every vessel we speak to
on the ocean will report one of us
walking, and sometimes towing the
boat, in calm weather."
The shoes of Mr.. Oldrieve are the
most wonderful part of the whole of
fair. They ore pair of, cedar boxes
five feet long, with fms on the bottom
and sides. They are very light and
capable of sustaining 40 pounds,
but as Oldrieve weighs only 13O, they
are as good to him as steamers
deck.

ga Tale OF a Kansas Cow"

a
The Santa Fe Railway company
has issued the following 'Tale of a
/ Kansas Cow:
The attention of Kansas agricultu-
rists was not directed to the possibi
ties of the dairying interests in that
state until about ten years ago. The
production and marketing of butter
and cheese previous to that time were
given only desultory attention, and
in the estimation. of the farmer the
returns therefrom were not of sui
ficient volume to warrant the invest
ment of any great sum in extending
this branch of the business. The
institution of skimming stations,
creameries. and cheese factories was
gradual. but from the time of their
first appearance the farmers found it
paid better to handle only the better
grades of cattle.
To-day there are $4,000 persons
engaged in supplying the market thus
afforded and the product Of 25O,OOO
choice cows, valued at 100000, is
required to meet the demands of the
400 Kansas creameries, skimming
stations and cheese factories, which
are valued at 100000, and whose
annual output is worth $S.OOO,0O0.
The mild climate constant sunshine
and light winds; the pure air, rich soil
and fresh water, all contribute to the
economical and profitable utilization
for dairy purposes of the $4,000
square miles of grass and grain pro
ducing land in the state.
Level roads possible throughout
the year, enable the producer to bring
his supplies to the station regularly.
The use of new and improved ma
and the presence of rival
companies with large capital insure
prompt acceptance Of the milk and
remuneration to the farmer.
The markets of the whole country are
available the year round, the refrig
orator car system insuring the do
livery of goods at the market prompt
ly and as fresh as though the article
were for domestic consumption.
The product of the Kansas dairies
is of such high grade that other
and older dairy states find in it a
formidable competitor. Not only is
it holding its own in the domestic
but it has made a bid for
foreign recognition, and successfully,
for twenty five Car lords of butter
were exported in 1897.
From the interest manifested by
agriculturists throughout the state,
it is fair to assume that ten years
hence the dairy business will have in
creased four-fold.

The Beef Steer and His Sister at
Home.


Cash City was one of the boom towns,
says c.. NJ. Harger in Leslie's Weekly.
1t had fame far and wide rs possible
rival for the county seat of its county in
western Kansas. A cattleman bought the
townsite the other day for $3.50, including
double stone store building, the post
office and two or three other structures.
His ponies are stabbed in one of the
buildings, the cattle roam at will through
the unclosed doors of the others. Two
Kansas court houses are owned by indi-
viduais under foreclosure. Three branch
lines of railway have been taken up
rails, depOts and rGund-huuses-and
moved away.
But the cattlemen are in their places,
making money. One young fellow re-
ceived notice from 4 friend last spring
that train load of steers would be at
Dodge City ut a certain date and re-
quested him to put them on the range
and sell them if possible. He delibei ated
for awhile whether he should do it. but
finally acceded. He herded them n
week, sold them and sent on for two
train loads. These went also at good
advance. BY December he had $4,000
to his credit in the bank, and is one of
the cattle kings of the range. Another
young man working on wages two years
ago shipped cattle from Texas and sold
them to feeders. He paid up in full $50 =
600 in life insurance the other day and
has about 5000 acres Of good land in his
wife's name. That beats farming or ir-
rigation theories.
All this marks new era in the de-
velOpment Of the west and period of
prosperity that promises to make wOn-
derful change in the surroundings of the
people. 1t has come about through the
growth of the cattle industry and the
|snpplanting of farming bv stock raising.
These are the central features of the
plains business life today and are making
the States Of Kansas and Nebraska able
to pay their debts and start anew. Texas
is heing shOrn of its stock On the ranges,
which is going to fit out the new ranches
started in the north. The old times Of
the cattle days are coming back when the
owners Of her,ls were kings and the trail
was the great business highway of the
nation. 1--WE do not want any more i'm
migration; there are enough now for the
country to support" is the expression Of
the dwelIers in the cattle country. More
would mean farming again-and that cx-
peTiencs has demonstrated that that is
not what climate and soil are fitted for.
The age Of the stnckman has come back
to the plains.

FUN At DlNGLEY'S EXPENSE

Democrats Improve an Occasion to Ask
Who Pays the Tax.
WASHINGTON. March 2l.-At the
opening Of the session Of the house Mr..
Dingley. the floor leader OF the ma.
jority, offered the bill reported from
the ways and means committee, pro.
viding for the free entry. into this coun.
try Of guns, ammunition, and other
naval supplies aud war material pur.
chased abroad, until Jan. l., 1899. He
explained that the committee had unan-
imously reported the bill. 1t was asked
for by the secretaries of war and navy.
Some of the Democrats undertook to
poke fun at Mr.. Dingley by asking him
why the supplies should be admitted
free of duty IF the foreigner paid the
tax"
Mr.. Dingley replied rather sharply,
that it was PERFECTLY understood that
where articles were purchased abroad
and imported, the purchaser paid the
duty. The bill was passed without
division.
