FILES ANOTHER CHARTER,
The Chicago, Kansas & Western (Atchi
son, Topeka & Santa Fe) railroad, Satur
day evening filed another charter with the
secretary of state by which they are to
build and operate fifty-two new lines of
railway in the state, fixing the capital at
$154,000,000, thus making the capital
stock larger than any other railway com
pany in the United States.
Among the many iines designated, no.
less than three strike Sedgwick county.
One of the lines starts in Osasre countv.
Hljd runs to Wighita exactly over Johnny
Long's Kansas, Colorado & Texas line.
Another practically parallels Gould's new
short line from Kansas City to "Wichita or
what will be the short line by December 15,
when the Paola link has been finished.
WOMAN AS A KL'IiER.
The Clearwater Times bought that
Helen Congar had forced the editor of the
Eagle to capitulate until he read our
welcome to Susan Anthony and her com
panions. Kb, my friend, wc have only
agreed with a committee of ladies, to an
armistic, which is to hold good throughout
the coining session. In the mean time
there can be no harm in giving Mrs.
lieechcr's opinion about those who rather
be any place else than at home:
"Let home stand first before all other
things! No matter how high your am
bition may transcend its duties, no matter
how far your talents or your influence may
reach bej'oud its doors, before everything
else build tip a true home! Be not its slave;
be its minister! Let it not be enough that
it is swept and garnished, that its
silver is brilliant, that its food is
delicious, but feed the love in it, feed the
truth in it, feed thought and aspiration,
feed all charity and gentleness in it. Then
from its walls shall come forth the true
woman and the true man, who shall to
gether rule and bless the land." Is this an
overwrought picture? "We think not.
What honor can lie greater than to found
such a home? What dignity higher than
to reign its undisputed honored mistress?
What is the ability to speak from a public
platform to large, intelligent audiences, or
the wisdom that may command a seat on
the judge's bench, compared to that which
can insure and preside over a true home,
that husband and children "rise and call
her blessed?" To be the guiding star, the
ruling spirit in such a position is higher
honor than to rule an empire.
ItEAVER CITY,
To the Editor of the Eagle.
Ukavek City, At. S. of I. T., Oct. o
I request space in your columns to answer
some questions, asked by the readers of my
letter in your paper, to Mr. I. Beard, of
Valley City. I would say that land can be
had in tracts to suit anybody. There is
building rock of two or three qualities.
The best of clay for brick. The lay of the
land is from a level plain to a rolling
prairie.
There tire plenty of springs, and running
streams of line living water, that are full of
fish to furnish sport to the settlers, and
food for the hungry. I will say here, that
to get near town, 3011 will have to buy peo
ple off. But eight to ten miles from town
you can get fine locations. It is settling
up very fast, and thoc wanting good loca
tions, 1 would say come carry. Wc have
two more large general stores since my hist
letter, I lodge ct Hodge, of Wichita, and
Tracey Brothers, of Hunnewcll.
Yours, W. Waddle.
IT COSTS TOO MUCH I
To the Editor cf tl.c Eagle.
Goddaed, Oct. 11. Will you allow me
to talk to the farmers and business men of
our county through your valuable paper?
If so, I desire them to consider well the
"constitutional amendment" that is now
submitted for their consideration, and for
their adoption or rejection tit the poll-" this
fall. It adds two additional judges to the
supreme bench, and pvovides that there
may be two more added when needed,
which mean'' four additional judges within
two .years, at a salary of 5,000 each or
3."i,000 annually. Now, gentlemen, there
is not one word said about this matter by
the lawyers or politician-, and if it receives
the suppoit of 500 votes, anil no opposition
is ofTeicd, it will become a part of
the constitution and then we are
bound to stand it. But before it
reaches this point, we should at leat dis
cuss it, and learn if possible how
we are to be benefitted by its adoption:
When the salary of the judges of the su
prcmc court arc to be doubled, and the
number of judges more than doubled, it
should be considered well before adopted,
especially this year when we have lost our
crops and all hands striving to make our
expenses.
Our three judges now cost us $7,500 per
year, whereas if this amendment is adopted
it w ill cost $35,000. Now then, why raise
the salaries of these judges when our state
officers, our members of the legislature, our
district judges and all thoe officers arc re
ceiving starvation salaries? I it right? Is it
just?
Would it not be better to call a constitu
tional convention and remodel the "old
thing all over?" What say you?
Respectfully submitted.
Jxo. Kelly.
DKNVKK AND WICIUTA.
To Jthe Flltor of the Ea?le.
1)envku, Col Oct. 9. Thinking a few
lines from this "neck of the woods" would
be of some interest to the great and good
Kaolu, I venture to submit you this letter.
To begin with, the weather is simply
charming, almost like early spring, and it
is asserted that it will continue so in all
probability until the holidays. Denver is
certainly a beautiful city, with its broad
streets and avenues and its magnificent
public and private buildings, giving evi
uuitt iu,i.u.n. v ...v. ,..? ""
4..rhA T.kai1lt-ft AT ini TT1T U'rtOlIM
thit has accumulated here, .lust ow
the citv is all asroc concerning the l
I
opening of the Manufacturer's Exposition,
held in the Mammoth Rink, which though
too small for the purpose, serves to give a
fair idea of the industrial activities and
resources tuat Denver possesses, ine
opening exercises on the eA-eniug of the
7th inst, drev together an audience of per-
hapt four thousand people who were ad
dressed by Hon. R. W. Woodbery Esq.,
President of the Chamber of Commerce,
and the occasion passed off with much
eclatc. Matters political are rather ixcit-
ing just now, but it is a fore-gone
conclusion that "Billy" Meyers, the
Republican candidate for governor will be
elected by an overwhclrrung majority. I
had the pleasure of meeting 3Ir. Cox, a
brother of the genial proprietor of that ad
mirable hostelry of your city, the Occiden
tal, and find him fully endowed with that
suariter in modo so characteristic of the lat
ter eentleman. Mnrh intoroct icfitnn,i
expressed here in that wonder of modern
umes, wiemta, and the general belief is
that it is surpassing any city in the west in
rapid growth, and the few' copies of
"Wichita Illustrated" we brought with us
were soon exhausted, so large was the de
mand. Certainly no city that I can now call
to .mind possesses a class of people
who "pull together" so unanimously for
the general welfare as do the citizens of
the "Magic City," I uoticc from the col
umns of your paper that the real estate
"boom" still continues. Will it ever cease?
Without doubt Denver would be greatly I
oencmeu n sue uau a juuruocK, an utiver,
a Levy, or a Niederlander. Still this city
shows palpable evidences of an increase of
population, though it still lacks something
of that spirit of "go-ahead-itiveness" that
characterizes Wichita. It is only a question
of time in my humble opinion when your city
will rival an' city in the west, and it is
now undoubtedly attracting more attention
than any other young metropolis on the
continent. With your rapidly increasing
railroad facilities, for which the Eagle is
largely responsible, I venture the predic
tion that in ten 3-ears Wichita will have a
population closely approximating one hun
dred thousand people, In looking over
this letter I find that instead of writing of
Denver, almost all of my paper is consum
ed with Wichita. Well, it can't be helped,
as one who once visits your hospitable city
is certain to overflow with enthusiasm
which must have vent.
A. A. Hensley.
IS HE A CRANK?
To' the Editor of the Eagle
Wichita, Oct. 10. What of the reduc
tion of the national debt?
What of the future paper currency?
What of the national banks, their issue,
and the foundation whereon that issue is
secured?
Will we ever again tolerate a paper cur
rency, founded on cheek and upheld by
credulity, until the face of this country is
covered with bills "like leaves on the
strand," through an era of unexampled
prosperity, when at last "a frost, a killing
frost will nip its roots" and leave us sadder,
poorer, Aviser, madder?
Will we pay off the debt, close all the
banks, issue silver certificates, build vaults
to keep the silver in, have banks of deposit
only, until silver will be so cheap that all
contracts will call for gold, and force us to
resort to something?
Why not, when wc bequeath to those who
como after us h free country bequeath to
them, also, a national debt, incurred in
building up the entire country, furnishing
transportation and means of communica
tion? Why not condemn the railroad property
running from cast to west, north to south;
condemn the telegraph lines, express com
panies. Commence a system of internal
improvements, build a government build
ing wherever the government has a perma
nent business, and issue bonds for the
whole with the understanding that the
principle is never to be paid? Why leave
the country to posterity free of debt? As
Sir. Boyle Roche said, "What has posterity
done for us that we should burden our
selves on its account?"
When we leave the country to it free,
happy, prosperous only burdened with
interest on a debt, incurred to benefit
the country, it seems we have left
it enomrh, and it can in turn
improve on our own improvements, as Ave
have improved on those we found; and yet
greater improvement can still be made br
each succeeding generation.
The development of the vrcrA and south
has only commenced, and by a system of
governmental improvements the country
can be benefitted, by lasting and valuable
improvements, and the stability of our pa
per currency l.c establi-hed for all time.
The "bull butter bill' has eradicated the
idea that there is anything congress may
not do, if it desires to do it.
The direct effect of purchasing the rail
roads, telegraph lines and express linej a-, ill
be to force money invested in these lines to
seek after channels for dividends, and
these other channels must be the
upbuilding of the AA'est and south.
Another effect would be to decrease the
rate of interest ou money, cause better
homes and business 'houses to be built, im-proA-e
the farms, and last, yet not least,
give employment to the laborer.
If Wichita should borroAV $500,000 on
forty year time at 5 per cent interest and
spend it all in city improvements, who
would be poorer by reason of it?
What built Wichita? Was it not faith
in the town and "long-time money" a a
high rate of interest?
If the government borrows money and
issues lwnds, and spends all the money in
the development of the country, and pays
the interest by a tariff, and the principal is
renewable, tis it ever will be forever, Aho
will be poorer by it? On the other hand,
may not great good flow from the cxpendi-
ture?
If a farmer spends $1,000 to defend his
title to his farm, Avins the suit, and then
siu uown to rest -vvunoui improving it te- i
cause he is short of funds, and leaves the
land to hii children free of debt, are not
those children in a worse fix than if he had
pwrrowea 00 per cent oi its worth anrt put

The ILirper fair closed last Saturday,
continuing four instead of three days, as
was advertised. There Avere a number of
ncAV features. Liberal premiums Avere giv
en to educational exhibits, also to the boys
and girls for eA'ery description of work,
mental and manual. The races are said to
haA'e been fairly conducted, Avhich was cer
tainly a novel feature, and there was no
gambling of any description alloAvcd on the
grounds. The liberal premiums for home
Avork and skill caused the lloral hall to be
avcII filled. The ait and educational ex
hibits Avere good. Grain and A'cgetables
gave no evidence of either a light or infer
ior crop, if there is a short crop in this
county. While the agricultural exhibit
AA'a good throughout, the di-phiA- of Iiish
potatoes was certainly as fine as Ave hae
ever seen at any county or slate fair. Mr.
Hose of the Wichita greenhouses, Avas on
the ground Avith a fine display of plants
which attracts much attention, and Avhich
he entirely disposed of before the fair
cused. Tins fair Avas tne most sat
isfactory that has ever been held in
the countv, and Ave trust Avil be
the beginning of a neAv order of fairs in
this county.
The Republican county convention met
at Anthony Saturday and nominated the
following ticket:
Capt. B. C. Cook, of Ruelia tOAvnship,
for representaliA'c.
Alf. II. Addams, of Harper, probate
judge.
Geo. B. Crookcr, of Blaine township,
county attorney.
J. E. Hutchinson avus renominated coun
ty superintendent by acclamation.
G. S. Kilgore, of Stohrville tOAvnship,
Avas nominated by acclimation for clerk of
the court.
After endorsing the Republican state
platform and demanding that county official)
execute the laAV regardless of local preju
dices, a rc?olution introduced. Ave believe,
by Judge Tlieo. Botkiu, of Attica, was
passed with a hurrah, the occasion being
the recent dividing of the county into com
missioner districts in Avhich the third dis
trict takes most of the cast, and all of the
south side of r.he county, excepting about
six miles directly south of Anthony, ar.d a
little of the Avest, being in Iavo parts with
I six miles between them. This is a piece of
I work on the part of Anthony that is a little
too conteniptaylc and ridiculous to le pass
ed quieily by. Here is the resolution -
"That avc denounce the order of the
board of county commissioners at their las
session in redistricting this county into
commissioner districts as unfair and op
pressive to a l&rge portion of oar people,
and as an infamous scheme to gerryman
der said commissioner districts in"the"inter
