A DRY YEAR.

The people of Kansas for a series of
years have been noted as the greatest
kickers on earth. The calamity party,
If not born in Kansas, fourished in this
state as nowhere else. That organiZa-
ton could not fail Of thriving midst a
community of hOwlers. The conflict
however, between the boomers and
howlers seems to have met with the
same result as that between the two
snakes which swallowed each other.
There is neither boomer nor howler left
in Kansas Everybody within the con-
fines of the state having grimly and 81
lentIy settled down TO business success
was inevitable For two or three years
Kansas has been making and saving
money, and will not only be out Of debt
but rich before anybody knows it.
Kansas made money last year which
year. climatically considered, was the
worst II her history, save one. Because
of the satisfactory results of sticking
strictly to business few realized that
the summer Of 1891 was so diSaStreusly
dry and hot. Tie corn crop was about
the worst failure ever experienced.
There is little doubt that there will be
two bushels of corn raised next season
10 every one Of last year, and in some
sections five bushels will be raised
where but one was raised last year.
Kansas streams, springs and wells
show that there was never such a scar
city OF water in the state. The official
meteorological figures show that the
amount of rainfall for the year 1897
was one inch less than during any year
since such records have been kept, be-
ing less than twO-thirds of the average
annual precipitation. Yet we had 57,-
100000 bushels of wheat 10 sell and
more corn than most states. Instead
of bowling and kicking, the farmers /
simply worked their corn fields for all |
there was in them. Chancellor Snow, !
IN his report says that the year was !
warm, dry and calm, with the warmest |
September and October, the cloudiest /
February, the calmest summer and the |
smallest total rainfall in thirty years.
December WAS the coolest The re-
deeming chance in the weather situa
tion was the unusual precipitation for |
the drst three months Of the year That |
made wheat AS there was less howl /
ing there was also less wind, the total
distance Travelled by the wind for the
year being below the average.

JAPAN,S AMBITION

Japan's ambition is 10 become to the
East what England is to the West, to
play the role among the Asiatics played
10y England among the Anglo-Saxon
races. England is an island and Japan
is an island, both contiguous to great
continents, being alike in nearly every
particular except in race. Japan says
she has no ambition in the direction of
territorial acquisition. But England
while protesting the same thing. has
gobbled up half of the world. Japan
has but one power 10 fear. if indeed the

THE KLoNDIKE KALEIDOSCOPE

The government of the United States
is spending money for the relief Of men
who seem to have the world by the top
knot. Two agents are in London for
The purpose of chartering n vessel in
which TO ship reindeer to Alaska where
hundreds of tons of provisions are be
ing accumulated and a small army of
men rendezvoused to transport them by
the aid Of the reindeer, to a lot of adj
yenturers watching gold holes up in the
British Possessions. If all the tales
that are told of the gold of that country
prove true, the adventurous watchers
viii bring back enough wealth to buy
up the country.
Men who left the Klondike gold fields
as late as Thanksgiving day agree in
reporting the danger Of anything like
starvation in the mining camps very
slight. They also agree that the rich
est early strikes" have been matched
if not exceeded, by some of the latst
Claims tested. One seems TO promise 4
yield of 81 10000 and another is show
ing signs of turning out not less than
S5,000,O00- The best proof that these
men mean what they say is furnished
by their determination to go back TO
the Klondike in the spring. Not one
of them intends to stay out of the
great rush sure to come next season.
1t is clear that the winter is not to fur
nish any news which will serve to les
sen the size Of the army of fortune
seekers already preparing TO make an
early start for the upper part of the
great Yukon alley. Rather, the tend
oncy of the latest reports is toward
still greater proportions for the Klon-
dixie boom Of 1898.

CRAWLING UP.

There is great disappointment in this
country. 1t is among the Democrats
over the workings of the Dingley bill.
There is more than S1G0,000,000 in the
gold reserve fund and the revenues for
December exceeded the expenditures
by more than a million and a half of
dollars. This is not all. The treasury
officials confidently predict that with
the exception Of this month, when ex-
ceptiona1ly heavy interest payments
fall due, the revenues will ex-
ceed the expenditures for the bal
ance Of the fiscal year. This will be
just what Dingley declared would be
the result. He said when the bill first
passed that there would inevitably be a
deficit for several months owing TO the
tremendously heavy advance imports
of foreign merchandise 10 evade the
payment of higher duties, the revenues
would become adequate to meet the ex-
penditures as soon as our foreign trade
assumed its normal conditions once
more.
OF course the good news which comes
from Washington will be a sad disap-
pOintment to the Democrats who have
been insisting that the Dingley law
was a failure as revenue-raiser, but
il will cause rejoicing among all the
friends and advocates of protection and
the wen-wishers Of the Republican ad-

MORE AND MORE GOLD.

The director of the mint announces
that information already at hand war
rants the statement that the gold
product of the world in 1897 will prove
go have been not less than $240,OoO, 600.
That would be equal to an increase OF
nearly $4O,0O0O00, or almost 20 per
cent
These simple figures tell much, but
they do not give an adequate idea of
the importance Of the increase in the
gold yield of the world. The gain is
over the greatest annual product ever
known, down to 1897. 1t is equal to
nearly half of the total yearly output
of the gold mines not long ago.
Allowing literally for the use Of gold
in the arts, in dentistry, ETC., the addi-
ton made TO the worlds stock of that
metal last year must have been fully
S200,O00,O00. That means about 4 per
cent Of the total supply available as
money for commercial purposes. 1t is
a rate of increase which IS not less than
seven or eight times as great as the rate
of growth in the population Of the
world, and at least four times the rate
of increase in the number of inhabitants
of the great commercial and industrial
countries of Europe and America.
