MORE PROSPERITY.

Two trusts have advanced the wages of EN-
ployes-the steel t1ust and the tin-plate trust
There is great clatter over the advance, in
the newspapers. The papers have overlooked
some things, however. The price of steel and
tin manufactures have also advanced. Peter is
to pay Paul The owners Of the manufactures
have the same profits as formerly-or larger.
The armor-plate fellows expect big thing
from Uncle Sam They wanted $500 ton for
armor plate, and the house committee was will
ling. The senate had the price the govern
ment might pay cut to $500, or not to exceed
the price received from foreign purchasers.
This move of the senate is great setback to
our armor- plate manufacturers. It leaked out
that steel armor plate had been sold to foreign
purchasers for 5000 per ton. Hanna got
through his bill to revive American shipping
business Tariff shuts out competition in the
tin business. Wages for employees are raised
above the starvation point, and the taxpayers

Trusts Feed Nobody.

In now famous article, entitled eth. Deca-
dence of Christianity and Its Cause" written
by "Emilus" for the Chicago Chronicle, the
writer says:
"The great trusts and combines, which
crowd small merchants and manufacturers out
of business, throwing millions out of employ
ment thereby lowering the wages in every de-
partment of active live not protected by union
organization, and seriously threatening that,
and which are driving men, women and even
little ones to lives of vice and crime, feed no.
body. Why do you not unbottle your wrath on
them? Why do you not stick your ak deep
down into the root of the tree instead of brows-
ing around like giraffe on the tender twgs
and branches? Are you afraid? Are you
either hypocrites or cowards?"
'Society is divided into thre classes-vz.,
big thieves and slaves.
'The slaves in turn are subdividcd into two
classes-viz., preferred slaves ond abject slaves.
''The big thieves are the few who have TAX
ell possession CT the earth and lcgaized their
robberes. They assume Godgiven right to
own property in any amount, regardless of the
manner in which it has been acquired and with
out reference to any equitable standard to de-
termne the value of mans life work i'll what
ever vocation he may be employed.

Government Gone Crazy.

There was much rejoicing among The expan-
sionists because General Maxine Gomez, com
mander-in-chief of the Cuban army, had placed
himself squsrely i'll position as an active ally
of the United States government in the work
OF reconstructing Cuba" Gomez is to receive
$4,000 for his work in assisting in the "recon-
struction OF Cuba" in addition to handling the
several million dollars this country IS foolish
to pay the Cuban soldiers. No wonder Gomez
so chee~fully becomes an ally of the United
States he has been bought and paid for, and
paid too much Gomez is an adventurer and
nothing else. The action of the American gov
eminent in agreeing to pay the Cuban soldiers
seven million dollars has no warrant, either in
law OF common sense. Poor and deserving
Americans are being neglected, in order that
Cuban brigands may be bribed to behave them
themselves. AS soon as the money these br-
gands now receive is exhausted, they will 20
on the war path again and demand more. The
men in charge OF the American government
have gone crazy.-Atchson Globe. (Rep.)

CLIMATE.

Some time since, we referred to Kansas eli
mate as being like that of Italy. Since that
time, the climate like Italy's has been seriously
overdone. No snakes have been seen for six
weeks. The grounding came out of hole on
grounding day, and, in his eagerness to sustain
the lane agents claim to Italian climate, stayed
out so long that he froze to death. Since the
death of the grounding, the weather has been
reckless. There has been no strawberry wealth
er for long time, and peach buds are supposed
to be winter-killed. Dakota billiards are tri-
umphant March roars like lion. Coal is
away ahead of hogs and wheat in the heavenly
soar. We are strictly in it (the Eagle will
please note), and there is nothing left of the
Italian climate but crows and English sparrows.
But, we are not discouraged. Next year we
will do better We will import new ground
hog, set out another peach orchard, and again
turn our snakes loose.

ROTTEN BEEF.

General Miles has had some enistad men ex-
amined by the rotten-beef investigating con-
mittee-mostly sergeants. The testimony is
about unanimous as TO the rottenness Of the
beef To an unprejudced juror, the govern
ment stands convicted of having fed its enlisted
men OH buzzard feed. 1t may not have been
known to Eagan or the high officials that the
beef contractors were furnishing the army with
beef unfit for food Probably the contractors
had standin with regimental quartermasters,
and bad beef was issued to enlisted men ex-
clusively. In the army there is gulf between
enlisted men and officers, and private's COM
plant often is not heard, or, if heard, is not
needed.
We give General Miles credit for not only
hearing, but needing. Had it not been for him,
the beef contractors would still be furnishing
rotten beef, if they had any left, and the pri-
vates would either have had to acquire the APP
petite of buzzard, OF gone without meat.

THE NEW PARTY.

A new party is projected. 1t is to be farm
er's party 1t will not succeed. Farmers have
no conference. Farmers can't be tied together
hot even with binding Irvine made in the pen
itentiary. They can't be glued together 1t
has been tried. The bitterest foes of farm
er's party are farmers. This is our view and
we may be mistaken. We must not be Under
stood as disappearing. On the contrary, we
commend. II is the impracticabiity, and the
intractiblity. The movement is impractcable,
because farmers are most intractable mortas in
the known world In America the farmers
have numbers, intelligence, and are sufficiently
free from the tolls Of the money power as to be
in position to revoutionize American politics.
They ought to grasp that power, and exercise
it with view only to self-protection. This is
only common sense, and is becoming a neces.
sity. Congress is full of corporation lawyers;
so also are our legislatures. Our courts are
packed with the same class. Men serve their
masters. Corporations are masters. Farmers
will receive no service from men who are en-
ployed by farmers enemies.

People suppose that the weather is diseased,
and that human beings can catch its infrmities;
they take the Group, the grippe, coughs and
colds out of the atmosphere, as it were. These
diseases are human they do not affect the
weather. They we're not found in high Arctic
lattudes by Peary, Nansen and other explorers;
but upon return to settlements, the little cpl
denies of colds and sneezes were frequent.
Men do catch such Affections from the atlnos-
phere-the mental atmosphere, which cores
ponds to the physical atmosphere. In the
mental world there are storms and Billiards
and cyclones raging; extremes Of temperature
exist there the same as in the external world.
From the mental conditions are derived all the
epdemics and ills of the human family.-The

wanted is to correct the abuses of the office Of

The lake Of Geneva, at the western
end Of Switzerland, is blue, while Of
the lake of Constance, at the eastern
end Of Switzerland, is green. Blueness
implies purity, since the natural color
uf water is blue. A green lake has it's
water slightly clouded with impurities,
which may be exceedingly fine parti-
cles, separately invisible. Prof. Spring
OF the university Of Liege says greer
lakes sometimes become absolutely
colorless for a time, and he has found
that this SUDDEN change Of hue Is due to
the washing into the lakes Of mud
colored red by oxide Of iron. Red is
complementary to green. and the result
Of the mixture is that the green color
of the water becomes for the time be-
ing neutralized.

A Turkish physician has been ex-
perimenting successfully on the trans
planting of hairs, one by one, to bald
parts of the scalp. His results seem
to show that there is no impossibility
in tho complete renewal of a lost head

amount of time and patience neces-
sary for the accomplishment of tho task
would be considerable to say the least.

The largest sugar planter in Texas

ton and refinery are located at Sugar
land. The crop is cultivated and har-
vested by conyicts who are leased from
the State. Several hundred mules are
employed on the plantation, and Mr..
Cunningham introduced a new food
for them few years ago. This food
is pure, black molassos, and the ami
mails are fed nothing else throughout
the year. Large troughs have been
built in the stables, into which the
molasses is conducted direct from the
refinery through pipes. The mules
have a great fondness for the molasses
and they are kept in prime condition
all the time. The molasses fed to
these animals is of n coarse quality,
and would command only low price
in the market. 1t is much cheaper
than corn or oats. cit not only keeps
