Leavenworth, Aug. 10. Many per
sons believe that it would be unwise for
tiie new bridge company to secure the
Maple Leaf line over its bridge on the
ground that the old bridge company,
tiudiog its rveau" almost wiped out,
would make an ulioit to sell tho struc
ture to Leavenworth and Plaite counties
at about 15 ceuts on the dollar to enable
these counties to make it a free bridge.
This might be very damaging to the new
bridge, but would be au important mat
ter lor the business interests of both
counties.

PEFFEIl SIZES UP
The President, null Says in 23 Tl His
Iti-putatlou Will lie Nothiug.
Pittsburg, Aug. 10. A Washington
special to the Dispatch says a majority
of the so-called statesmen who inhabit
this town act like timid white rabbits.
Each sits trembling behind his little
bush of corruption, or hatching his fool
ish little presidential egg aud shivers
with fright if anyone asks him to talk.
Beside these shivery citizens Senator
Peifer of Kansas produces a most favora
ble impression. He may be all sugar
trust men and others say of him, but it
is certain that honesty is included among
his peculiarities and that he is not afraid
to sav what he thinks.
"What doyoutriiak the future will
have to say of Grover Cleveland what
wiil be his exaet standing iu history, and
to what permanent achievement by him
will future writers be able to point?"
He thought about Cleveland, and he
said: "Mr7 Cleveland had but one lead
ing idea when he entered national poli
tics, and that was to reform tariff legis
lation. He is a man of strong convic
tions and honest purposes. Had he been
permitted to have his own way he would
have accomplished a great deal of good,
but social and financial influences were
too strong for him. He has been moved
out of his orbit, and now, like a wauder
intr comet, is getting further and further
away from the original one idsa which
constituted his intellectual habitation.
He will not get another idea, aud his Erst
one has been lost. He has failed utterly
to fulfill the promise of his national be
ginning. "The president's affiliation with finan
cial interests has decreased his influence
as a public man. He will pass away
from the public stage. Tlie Democratic
party will soon be disbanded. lis lifo is
about run. Grover Cleveland will pass
away with it In twenty-five years it will
be seen that nothing in Air. Cleveland's
public career made any real impression
on the history of his country.
"Only the" man who succeeds in actu
ally accomplishing a great reform, or one
who sows great seel which actually
ripens iu time can hope to be remem
bered." "Please try to imagine yourself a his
torian iifty years from now and writing a
short child's history of America. Tnen
dictate exactly what you think would bo
your chapter on Grover Cleveland." Air.
Peller folded lus long, thin hinds in his
long, thin lap and posed his face in his
long, thin beard aud dictated this chap
ter of the future child's history :
"Grover Cleveland his public career
illustrated the possibilities of develop
ment among common people or a Dem
ocracy. His position in history is about
the same as Harrison, I' dk or Garfield."
Air. Peli'er then changed the subject.
He said:
"The next house of representatives
will have a big majority of Republicans.
That is perfectly certain. '1 he Demo
cratic party will never recover from ils
present disorganization. It is divided
against itself, and curiously enough it is
divided upon ttie same lins as those upon
which the entire people of the nation
are divided. It is a division of labor
against capital.
"The idea that tlie tariiT vacillation has
had all to do with this panic and depres
sion is fallacious, although it will help
greatly in the killing of ilie Democratic
party. The country has reached the
stage where something has to be d me.
The first step will be the national owner
ship of railroads."
Air. Peifer was good enough to express
his opinions of a number of great men.
'Men great in all d.rectious," said he,
"are very few-, if any really ever existed.
Abraham Lincoln, Julias Cseaar and Na
poleon Bonaparte came nearer to univer
sal greatuess than any men in history.
In the senate, John Sherman is
the greatest man in the old school of
finance. In political history Morgan of
Alabama is the ablest senator. In mod
ern finance Senator Jones of Nevada ex
cels them ail. As a political worker the
shrewdest man is Chandler. Gorman is
the shrewdest politician. Hill's trouble
is too much courage. That's why Gor
man beats him as a politician. Hill does
not care whether he has one man agaiost
him or a thousand When his mind is
made up he goes ahead.
"Air. Reed of Alaine is one of the men
who do not help the world along. He
takes it as he finds it, gets what he can
out of it and leaves it, so far as he is
concerned, just where it was when he
came upon it. But he is a brilliant man,
despite his lack of valuo to his race."

THE SUNFLOWER OF SIBERIA.
An Arctic Plant That Is llemarkabla la
More Ways Than One.
"One of the greatest curiosities I
sver met with in my travels," said
Professor Philip L. Newman of Cin
iinnati, "is the sunflower that blooms
in the northern portion of Siberia,
i where the earth is continually covered
j with a coating of snow aud frost.
I This wonderful plant shoots from the
frozen soil on the first day of the year,
I and roaches the height of about three
I feet; it blooms on the third day, re
j mains open twenty-four hours, and
then returns to its original elements.
It shines for a single day, then tha
stem, leaves, and flower a re converted
into snow. The leaves are three in
number.
"The flower is star-shaped, its pet
als about as long as the leaves and
about half an inch wide. The third
'lay the extremities of tha leaves show
little glistening specks. like diamonds,
about the size of the head of a pin.
These are the seeds of this queer
flower. I was told that on one occa
sion some of these seeds were gath
ered and hastily transported to St.
Petersburg. They were there placed
in a bed of snow, where they were
kept nntil the first of tlie following
year, when the sunflower burr,t forth
and was greatly admired and won
dered at bv all who saw it"
FAR SEEING EGYPTIANS.
Why They Waved Wild I'alm Branches
Over Iiate Palm Flowers.
More than one thousand j-ears ago
Herodotus observed a remarkable cus
tom in Egypt, says' Professor Drum
mond. At a certain season of the
j-ear the Egyptians went into the des
ert, cut oif branches from the wild
palm and. bringing them back to their
gardens, waved them over the flowers
of the data palm. Why they per
formed this ceremony they did not
know, but they knew that if they
neglected it tlie date crop would be
poor or wholly lost.
Herodotus offers the quaint ex
planation that along with these
branches there came from the desert
certain flies possessed of a "vivific
virtue," which somehow lent an ex
uberant fertility to the dates. But
the true rationale to the incantation
is now explained. Palm trees, like
human beings, are male and female.
The garden plants, the date bearers,
wera females, the desert plants were
males and the waving of tiie branches
over the females meant the transfer
ence of the fertilizing pollen from the
one to the other.
THE MASHER'S MISTAKE.
A Thick Veil Oeluilud Him and Spoiled
a Suggestion of Supper.
An elderly lady who keeps a fash
ionable New York school, and who
lays no claim to good looks, tells the
following as a joke on herself:
"The other night I left t ie home of
a friend half a mile above my house.
It was pouring with rain. I had on a
heavy mackintosh and a thick veil,
but no umbrella. I started to walk
home, when a swell-looking young
man approached, rais-ed his hat with
a' mashing smile, and asked me to
come under his umbrella. 1 took his
arm with a smile and walked with
him to my door. He said sweet things
all the way. When I reached my door
I thanked him for his sheltering
escort. He suggested a little supper.
I said:
"'Young man, whom do you take
me for?" at the same time raising my
veil and looking at him in the full
glare of the electric light. He jumped
half way across the street and cried:
" -The devil'.' "
Impossihle Under tlie Circumstances.
A gentleman, acaompanie 1 by a lady
wearing a handsome dress and boa
net, came out of the Albert Hall one
night to find it raining, while they
were without umbrella or waterproof
clothing. "Why, Charles:"' the lady
cried, "it's raining." "So I see," said
Charles, calmly. "Well, what shall
w-e do?" "I rather think we shall
have to let it rain," replied the matter-of-fact
husband. Excited by the
disaster awaiting her garments, the
lady amused the bystanders greatly by
saying: "Why, Charles, how can we,
when I have on this light dress and
bonnet?"

TODAY'S 31AKKET UEPOItT.
Furnished by tlie Associated Press to the
State Joiiruai.
Chicago, Aug. 10. The grain mar
kets today were decidedly quieter and
steady than they have been during the
past lew days; in fact they appear to
have resumed their normal condition.
A feature of today's trading was the
strong preference which speculators
showed for the Alay future over Septem
ber, the latter beintr comparatively neg
lected aud the former becoming the lead
ing option. There was a straggling
shower here this morning which gave
the market a temporary weak turn, but
it rallied again ou firm cables, reports of
no raiu3 in the corn belt and high tem
peratures yesterday with hot winds.
Another factor iu the firmness was the
country buying, though the orders from
that source were not so uniform as here
tofore. Some buying to sell.
Corn opened Jc lower at RC1, advanc
ed to5G J4 reacted to tlie opening price,
rallied to outside figures again and eased
off to 5t$l-. Alay opened Jgc off at 54,
eased off to 534, rallied to 54 g, broke
on realizing sales to 54Ja, rose to 54?g,
but fell away to 53,3.
Wheat showed a more independent
tendency and whs not so closely sympa
thetic with corn as it had been for the
past week.
Liverpool was Jl higher and the mar
ket here responded readily to buying
orders. September opened unchanged
