KANSANS MUST WAIT.
No More Territory Positions Until
Hitchcock Retires.

There is trouble between Senator
Burton and Secretary Hitchcock
and the Secretary holds the cards.
As a consequence the Kansas SEN
ator has notified the faithful that
no iavors will be dealt out of the
Hitchcock pack.
The following lament has been
received from him by Topeka
friend:
81 can do nothing more in the
way of getting my friends positions
ia the Indian service or the land
departments until Secretary
Hitchcock is removed from the
cabinet. | do not know how soon
that will be and my hands are
tied in the meantime. !"
The trouble between Burton and
Hitchcock is three years old, and
is not melIowing with age.
The delay, pending the retire
ment of the secretary, imposes
cruel injury upon those Kansans
whom il is the duty of the terri
tory to support. A petition will
probably be circulated in the
name OF humanity, asking that
they be allowed 10 take their
place at the "pie counter. {"

Are England, Scotland aud Ireland
destined, ultimately 10 become a part
OF "Tne United States OF America
and GraAt BrItain"? Is the startling
inquiry which William T. Stead
makes In the January Cosmopolitan.
He has been one or the prophets OF
Great Britain, and has, at all times,
been able 10 see in advance OF his con-
temporaries-as events have proven.
He has been studying the new condi-
tIons brought about by the industrial
combinations and reached the cOnclu-
sion that England and the United
States are destined 10 become more
closely united aud that as soon as the
English people wake up To the absurd
ity and general uselessness, as has
been shown ia the B0er war, OF king
and aristocracy, the trend will be inn
mediate in the direction Of union
with the people Of the United States.
However much one may differ from
Mr.. Stead, his speculations will be
found vastly interesting. He is the
first British subject who has had the
courage to suggest such an outcome.
An article which will prove OF the
widest interest to all those engaged
in teaching or who may be interested
Ia education, is one ia the January
Cosmopolitan by Elisha Benjamin
Andrews, ex-President OF Brown Uni
versity. who for The first time. in a
leading magazine. has had the cour-
age to show the great evils resulting
from the private contract school-book
system-educati0 officials corrupe-
ed, school-boois often the poorest !.
lected, and the prices paid by tn
children themselves or the highest

lions which could be very easily avoid
cd IL the proper organization were
brought into this effort.

WATER FACILITIES
In the Territory Causes Complaint
and Test of Artesian
Water Will be Made
With View to
its Use.

The engineering department oil
the Fisco road are going to make
an exhaustive test Of the adaptab-
billy OF Vinita artesian water for
steaming purposes. The recent
freeze up along the line, and the
large amount OF sediment contain
ed in the creek waters has at
tracied their attention to Vinita's
insxhaus.ible supply Of overflow
ing pure water.
Complaints were made by some
engineers that the water was too
gaseous except for use in station
cry boilers, They claimed that
the natural rocking" Of the en-.
gine kept it boiling, making the
feeding Of the boilers hard task.
They further stated in their re-
ports tha, If the artesian water was
used alone that this "boiling'' was
not 80 noticeable. but when it WAS
mixed with the creek waters con-
tanning minerals in large quanti-
ties 1t was difficult to use.
The test will not only include a
thorough analysis of the water but
il will be run through two tank
system to see II the water will lose
its gaseous properties when al
lowed to stand reasonable
length OF time.
II the tests prove satisfactory
the company will build a large
water station here. and it is inti-
mated, will follow with other inn
provements.
The use OF creek water in both
the locomotives aud stationery en-
gines of the company in the terri
tory is very costly, owing TO it's
damaging effects on the boilers.
and the absence of all corrosive
minerals in the srtesian water. .it.is
stated, will influence the company
in the location of some contem-
plated improvements. The
value Of the artesisn water for
use in stationery boilers has been
demonstrated at the electric light |
plant. where, after two years use,
the engineers have pronounced it
free from all damaging sediment.
President Ratcliff, OF the Com
mercial club. on request. sent the
samples Of the water for the chem
icaI analysis to ST. Louis this aft
ernoon. The results OF the anal
ysis and the practical test will be
awaited with interest, as it is ex-
pecied to demonstrate. beyond all
doubt, the great value OF the wa
ter for all purposes.
