BUSINESS is MORE EXPENSIVE.

enterprises than it did four and six years ago. Labor
is higher because food is higher. While products
are claimed be proportionately valuable the
profits are complained of as being less Railroads
doing vastly more business with gross earn
ings showing great increase, but such has been the
advance in the price of iron and ties in salaries that
arrangements are predicting and telling the stock
holders that dividends will be curtailed The Wall
street view of the business situation, present and
future continues to be optimistic The latest issue
increases in railroad earnings, following the phe-
nomenal gains of the past four years ,emphatically
testify to this The only complaint heard is the
increased of doing business and the consequent
diminuton of profits. This complaint is general
not only among individuals, but is shown in the
current reports of ndustrias and railroads An
event of much business significance is the estimate
of the iron ore producers of output this year
of 100000 tons, and increase of 100000 tons
over last year. and an agreement to advance the
prices in ore There is an immense amount of iron
tonnage in sight and whether this advance will
check the demand not remains to be seen. With
the urgent requirements of the railroads to be met
it seems very probable that the iron boom may

TOO AWFUL TO CONTEMPLATE.

The worlds most populous nation is ON the verge
Of another revolution, which must involve the IA
te~est property and the prosperity of four Eun
red niTIi9s of people, a rumber five times greater
than IS hoasted py the United States. The people
of China are not to blame primarily The trouble
is with their rulers who utterly opposed to any
newer or higher civilization for the empire. These
rulers at the head of whom is an old gray-halred,
dominating and preiudiced woman, are opposed to
the nroads Of modern commerce, to modern eauca-
ton and every and all prosperous steps. The ways
and customs of a thousand years ago are what
these desire today. The only why the right
ful heir is not upon the Chinese throne today is
because he desired to lift his people TO more mod
ern standard in religion, in education, in commerce,
and il the everyday life Of the average citizen.
The late Boxer uprising, which but for the good
Offices of the United States, would have resulted
in the ACKNOWLEDGMENT and downfall of this. the
Oldest empire of history, was unquestonably IN
spired by the old Dowagress who with her counsel
lors of state her vceroys and privy advisers, are
in sympathy with this later outbreak of which the
world is hearing more less now every day. The
dupiicty of this Anticipated old sheruer is some
thing beyond ordinary comprehension She is con-
tinually issuing edicts commanding reforms along
the lines of occidental civilization, the while aiding
the movements of the leaders of the revolt and en-
couraging the viceroys of the interior to stand by
the revoutionists which revoutionists in turn are
threatening the lives of the Dowageress. If the
unexpected does not soon happen in the way of
intervention or prevention, the most bloody massa-
xI n1v
include every foreigner falling into the hands of the
insurgents but whose native victims will be num-
bered by the million rather than by the thousand.
Then will follow pestilence and famine and woe
and such destruction civilization cannot compre-
hend and finally the dissolution of the empire and
the parceIing out of its territory among the nations

ABOUT INGALLS, AND PLUMB.

."rhe house and senate of Kansas. after fighting
over the matter and spending several thousands
of dollars OF the peoples money, decided to place
bust of John J. ingalls, in the national capitol build
ing Did the Republican legislature forget the last
great speech ingalls, made was one endorsing the
principles of Populism? And did the members re-
member that if he had made the speech year
sooner he would be alive yet and a supporter of
Democracy and that he would probably have been
in the United States senate long as he lived?
And while talking along that line it may be just as
well to call the attention of these statesmen to
the fact that Plumb, too had repudated the tenets
of Repubcanism before he died, and was ready Tor
q fight against mossbackism in his party ranks. 1t
is well to remember these things and mention them
occasionally that future generations shall not
forget them. Lawrence Gazette
There is some sense in the foregoing and more
of truth Plumb was an out and out free silver
man He was the first to call the attention
of the United States senate and of the county to
the fact that silver had been surreptitious1y demon
itized by the gold bugs through congress- and that
after recording pretty stiff protest came back
to Kansas and denounced the act upon the stump,
his first speech being delivered in Eagle Hail. WITCH
tia. And farther had Plumb lived, Kansas would
have sent a delegation to the national convention
at st. Louis instructed to vote with the west for
silver.
AS for the speech of Ingalls, alluded to, II
written and announced TO be delivered in June.
Knowing of the purport of the speech, from him.
self the writer of these lines went over from Balt
more to Washington to hear it delivered. In reply
to inquiries he said that he first hesitated and
$ then later decided not to deliver it. We begged
him to do so the plea that it would in shutting
up the calamity howl in Kansas against the pluto
of the Republican party insure his reelection
He delivered the speech later on, but the Ga
zette intimates, it too late. Instead of being
accepted good Republican doctrine it was held
TO be but bid for the Populist vote and which as
such resulted in the RELOCATION of ingalls, and which
RELOCATION later killed him.

The old bachelor the male celebate is held very
largely responsible. Taxation and final conhsca-
ton by the state Of their holdings seems to be
the most popular penalty lor these recalcitrants
The days of ancient Sparta cited when it was
lawful for woman to drag unattached men into
The temple of Hercules and give them sound
thrashng Plato condemned celebate men and
Rome in the time Of Augusta attached penalties to
bachelorhood Later in France and in other coun-
tries were laws enacted enforcing penalties upon
the fellow who refused to commit matrimony 1t is
possible that the philosophers mentioned and states
cited were on the wrong horn Of the dilemma II
may be that the average bachelor rather than lose
his freedom would plank down his annual tax and
promptly But there is the old maid few Of whom
have not had than opportunity to get mar
RED If she is not willing to make affidavit that
she has never had a chance why not tax her also.
II the tax was made stiff enough there is little
doubt of her getting hustle that would bring
some fellow to terms.

THE DEITY OF CHRIST.

President Patton, of Princeton University in
a sermon last Sunday the Dety of Christ, on His
Divinity or rather the Person of Christ declared
bIfefy:
1.-The idea of personal Christ is scrptural
doctrine 1t is the function Of the church to teach
doctrines and of the Bible to prove them. What is
the particular doctrine to which the crystal
lizing power of Christianity? The Bible teaches
and proves to that it is none other than the
person of Jesus Christ. Paul. in his epstles, clearly
brings this out. Christianity is not religion Of
great reformer; it is worship Of risen Christ,
and has been the greatest factor in the history of
the world 1t may be true that science would have
developed that inventions and discoveries would
have continued had not Christ came into the world,
but it is certainly that Christians the light
of the world
"The doctrine of evolution may give us belief
in an incarnation, but it cannot give the fact
Of that incarnation. If the incarnation took place
in evolutionary way the only thing could
say is that Christ is great man. There are some
people who Kenotists who say there are some
things which Jesus Christ did not know and, among
these, who wrote the Penetateuch The incarna-
ton stands closely related to the Kosmic process.
Jesus is the revealer OF God, his moral attributes
We know God through natural religion, but
We know him a God Of love and the author of
moral law through Christ"

THE KANSAS PEACH CROP BUSTED.

The peach crop is said to be a goner for 1903
Some of the most observant horticultursts as well
as many of the of large peach orchards de-
clare that the late Manitoba wave cooked the crop
beyond hope. This may be true so far as the north
half Of the state is concerned. North Kansas is
not peach country although occasionally that Sec
ton shows up with profitable peach crops But for
one the Eagle prefers waiting for another month
before desparing entirely of the crop in South
Kansas and in Oklahoma

back severely 1t is the best thing TO do for future
crops. Good heavy trimming and heading in will

cutting back in unfrutfa years and always with
