It now looks as If the strurcle at Wichita six weeks hence was to be speedily narrowed down to the issue clear and naked of the ring power and all of the disreputable Jonah factiunxif the party on one side, and the better clasa n'men ideatMed with the party only from principle, oi the other.

Of course the Eagle will support its backer, but even with the support of uns great newspaper, and the threats of the withdrawal of patronage, Mr. Ryan has something to do besides taking a sedative to succeed himself.

Pbajkie Gbove, Julv 6, 1878. Ed. Eaole: 1 have sometimes thought that the Arkansas Valley department of your paper was entirely overdone; not that it was untrue, to auy great exlcnt, but so much written on the same subject is apt to lose interest.

Bull will venture to givo utterance to a few thoughts: Every observant person feels so astonished at wh'at he sees all around him, that he feels that he must give utterance to his thoughts in some way. Some six to eight years ago tho pioneers of this valley came here to try an experiment which was thought by a largo number to be an exceedingly risky one- Tho" idea had prevailed to such an extent that these plains wcro an almost barren desert, liable to be overtaken, periodically, by all tho A'DAWE. 00JOB TO JUMMOT; a-w- jroai GiaTraxxL Tells Wet Ex Dwi'r Lax TixKiSLxuro omxiSoMiftnMT Izcv8X3 Fob His Political.

JAJ1ES McDERSlOTT, Chairman. Louis Haszack. Secretary. Topeka, Ausust 17, 1S7S. Who Are the Three? The assertion made last week by the Eagle, that there wcro three men in Sedgwick county in favor of defeating Thos.

Eyan, has brought out several inquiries as to who the three men rc one or two dating us to name them. Here goes Judge V. P. Campbell, Iisv. E.

C. Urooks and Mr. Samuel Peters himself. It will bo remembered when we wrote that article Mr. Peters was iu town.

Jcdgs Campbell's Letter. The good natural criticisms and railery indulged in elsewhere, by Judge Campbell ate permissible even enjoyable. But as tho Judge has thrown aside tho judicial ermine for a dive into the muddy political pool, we Will take occasion to say these two Words: The Eaole, or its editor, never opposed Judge Drown, neither did Wo have any hand in any job put up lor his defeat. As to the second charge: We said nothing against the railroad's candidate, Jlr. Samuel Pc-' tcrs, until weeks after we knew of tiio conspiracy to beat Mr.

Kyan, and not then, until two or three of our home men, including Judge Campbell, had nnmiBtikably, by words and actions, showed a sympathy for tho movement. "Wo would not say a word more in answer to Judge article or in our own defenro, if we had columns of room. Jcdgs Price- Judnc Price, of Doniphan county, bofore whom was the historic "Regis Lolsel" case by Senator lugall, ud who, since he left the bench, lias held several responsible positions, elected thrice to tho State Senate, is being urged as a candidate for Attorney General. Judge Price is one of the noblest uml truest men iu the State; sound as a lawyer, aud sound as a Republican, and if he is nominated will, on the stump, shako up the 'State as it never has been shaken before. Ileis of the Bob lngcrsoll stamp of orators perfectly irresistible.

The Wichita Eaole anuounccs the Hon. John Kelly, of Sedgwick county, as a candidate for Lieutenant-Governor, lie is, at present. Stale Senator from that county and President of the State Board of Agriculture. He served with credit during tho late civil war in the Union army, and is a man of nigii character anu line anilities. lie is a popular man, and will, if nominated, poll the full strength of the parly in the State.

L. Uubbs of Edwards county. Kingman Jfer-cury. Martin, why do you treat us thusly Haven't we o'lways used you, well Kelly, of Sedgwick, is the coming aaan; go for him. Kinsley liepubli-Ufa.

1873. Mr. Editor Our coming Eaole will no doubt chirp loudly about the Fourth of July-fications iu different parts of tho county. Our observances of that day wcro limited. You see we didu't have any pumpkin pio or other diet calculated to make U3 feel very patriotic, so wo just run up our flag, set off a fire-cracker, and went to stacking wheat, What aharvest-time we'vo had forty days of wheat, and sotuo small patches yet to cut; barloy, oats, and hay yet to lake care of corn to weed, stubbles to plow, wheat to sow, aud yet wo hope to bo ready for that biggest fair in Kansas, to be held from tho 10th to the 14th of September on tho Wichita Fair Grounds.

It was not lack of machinery that mado our harvest work move so slowly. Eleven binders, nineteen harvesters without binder attachments, four headers, seven or eight droppers and self-rakers, and a dozen or so cradle3 done the bulk of the cutting for Kcchi. The acreage and average per actc iu our township I will not attempt to give, but wo have saved lots of wheat, and there were thousands of bushels we didn't save. Some was marketed in the bundle, disposed of to General Flood. Tho General being the only buyer in tho market, took it at his own price, and as he shipped bv the natural outlet, the Arkansas river, he no doubt got cheap transportation.

Our wheat generally is plump, and it the miller and other buyers will stop that vulgar practice of sticking their noses into it, it will grade one and two. We've learned ono thing, if we didn't know it before that wheat set up in round shocks of reasonable size, aud well capped, will go through such weather as we have had without injury. Neighbor Gulp had thirty acres put up iu this manner, and in stacking found it well preserved. Our weather now is warm, with an occasional shower, just right to make heavy corn. And now, Mr.

Editor, the agricultural people have probable nothing more to dread than the bitter dose of politics to which tho coming campaign premises them. The timo is coming again wlicn honorable men accoiding to common practico arc licensed to live oat, act out, aud tell out almost any lie to advance party Is it any wonder that such a 6tate of things is forcing into existence new parlies. The glorious old Republican party ought to bring the people all tho reform needed, but as long as it persists in measuring its goodness or bad ness by the doing of the Democrats, while in power, how much of real reform can we expect from, such a source, lie who is prepared to vote the straight ticket as brought out by the Republican convention system, is is not fit to vote; and yet a moro recreant citizen is he who votes the democratic ticket under all circumstances When tho Democratic organ undor- takos to tell us that "Ten years hence nothing will be icmcmbercd cf the Republican party save its history of fraud and conuption," tho people should know at once that such organ aud the party it represents is not willing to deal fairly with facts, and hence thould not bo trusted with their votes. And now, Mr. Editor, if you can so arrange tho time for holding the town primaries that they will not come on fair week, it will probably give some of our oflicc-scckcrs and oflicc-niakcrs a chance to show their zeal iu their work of building up a homo institution.

The workingmen of IIniniib.il Missouri, have effected a permanent organization. Inclosed I send their platform, clipped from tho St. Jo Herald. Probably you can afford it space in the Eaole, aud then Squire Ross-may tell us how much moro communism may be introduced to make it palatable to an independent Xinncscah farmer. Wo think it clear, concise, and not bad Republicanism.

All that a real work- iugman can consistently ask is work, aud wages commensurate with the times. 1. That this society shall bo known as Political Club." 2. nones ty and economy iu tho administration of public That labor should have an equal representation with capital. 4.

That we elect honest, industrious and economical men to office. 5. That all kinds ot property whether owned by individuals or corpora- tious, should no taxed aiiKC. 6. The general government alouo to issue mouev, and this only for the ben efit of all, and uot through or for tho enrichment of national banks.

7. That we will abido by the laws of the gcucral government, ana that we will not countcuan cc the destruction of property ot any kind. 8. That the electoral college be abolished, and that the President be elected by the popular vote. 9.

That we know no party except the Workingmau's Political Club, regardless of color, or previous condition of physical or political affiliations the past. 10. Tho labor is tho propelling power of all enterprise, aud must have legislative protection. 11. That we encourage the increase of tho regular army for the protection of our frontier.

12. A reduction in the salaries of public officers iu proportion to laboring men's wages. Monday Morning One hour and- a-half's steady rain has filled our creeks to thclianks, aud laid our oat to the ground. Fakmeh K. worst agricultural enemies, such as drouth, and all manner of destructive insects, that the problem with us was, will this county bo a self-sustaining one can tho agriculturist meet with enough prosperity to carry him through his adversity; or, in other words can he raiso enough the pros perous year that might come, to carry him through tho adverse year that would surely follow? With such thought as the above, we concluded to take the couutry on trial, as wo wcro all too poor to tako any country that had boon tested aud been found to bo desirable.

And the time is not far distant when thoso who, through carelessness, iJleucs', or mismanagement, failed to secure them a portion of this goodly heritage will regret it, a3 Esau did tnc loss of his birthright, when re-grots are unavailing. As to fruit growiug, in those days we hardly dared to hopo that these vast, almost illimitable, open, unprotected plains would grow fruit of any description with any certainty, and timber was a thing to bo thought of and longed for, but never realized. Now, after six years' trial, wo can hardly believe tho evidence everywhere bofore us. Walk out iu any direction and you will ice legions of stacks of grain, giving tho entire country the resemblance of a large city, with its multitude, of spires rising heavenward. A stranger would nat urally conclude that the whole country was one vast wheat field, but when ho is told that but a small portion of this wonderful country is yet iu cultivation, his surprise knows no bounds.

1 will only say of corn, oits, and potatoes and vegetables, that he who doc3 his part by them, aud is not satisfied with tho results, generally, would be dissatisfied if taken to heaven. As a fruit and timber growing country, we are without a rival. Can you believe that it is possible for a small twig from tho five years, to malio a growth of from thirty to forty feet, aud tho diameter iu proportion? We can show you hundreds that have. The idea that in five years we could be well supplied with fruit, did not outer the minds of any of us, and yet thoso of us who did our part, to-day have a better supply of fruit aud in greater variety than nine-tenths ot tho old fanners in the cast, which clearly demonstrates the fact that all might have been thus supplied if they had planted and cultivated orchards. J.

G. Sampson. For tho E.iglk. The Fonrth at Petcn9. 1'eatone, July 4, 1S78.

Editor Eagle Another national holiday has passed. The people of of lhi placo and Ohioville celebrated the day iu a very fine grove on the banks of the Xinncscah, which is now a very pretty place, but with a little work could bu made handsome. Tho above place is what is known afc the S. C. Lockctt Ford.

It is a splendid, shady little grove. Iu tho writer's opinion it is tho prettiest placo on the Niuncscah. The representatives of Ohioville volunteered to do the enter taining on this occasion not because 1'eatone could uot do it, for she could we have the talent in our midst. It is not much to say, but I think we can "take the rag off the bush" on celebrations in this part of the county. There was quite a respectable crowd came up from the Buckeye settlement.

They had a forerunners two young go.itlcmen and one prima donna, who was dressed in white aud had ou a national apron. As it was near dinnertime when the Ohioville folks arrived the first thing ou tho programme was lefreshmcnts, aud a good aud bountiful repast it was. Wo partook of some of the best pie that ever graced a picnic table, baked by Mrs. Geo.Mead, of Sumucr county, who came up with her family to mingle with a good crowd. Next iu order was fixing up swings, putting up their instruments, after which we had some pretty fair singing for a tet of clodhoppers.

The instrument used wa3 provided by the prima donna, and the singing led by Sunday School Superintendent Kimball, of Ohioville. Among tho pieces snug was ono entitled "Only an Armor Bearer," in which a couple of our young lassies joined in while' swinging, keeping their own time, but there was music iu them, and they were forthwith invited up to join the singers. Their names arc Miss Lizzio Shcnk and Flora Davis', two sweet little girls of about 11 or 12 years of age. After the singing somo pleasaut ac-quaiulauccs were made, aud tho exercises closed with short speeches by different parties. 1 belieyo Ohioville ill always be welcomed iu this community, and whenever they want to have a good time iu tho shapo of a picnic we will insure them a big turnout, and do our share towards making it a success, if at nothing clso it will he at tho eolation.

Com looks splendid, especially the early plautiug. Wheat, I believe, is all iu the stack. There is not much wheat spoiled. That which sprouted was mostly through negligence. Oats is being cut.

There are several parties hero who planted trees, regardless of what an old settler of this township told them, that are now proud to see their labors rewarded. Mr. Frank boasts of a lino lot of peach trees from the seedwhich he planted this year. They look very thrifty indeed. Mr.

Beverly Graham has got tho mail route between Clearwater and Finlay. Mrs. T. L. Turnbull has been quite sick, but is now recovering.

I understand we arc to have that long looked for store. The exact loca-. tion is not settled yet, but we are sure of it. I remain with due respect, YlNKGAE. Wichita, July 11, 1878.

Ed. Eaole: I have been strangely, if not profoundly impressed, by tho course of tho Eaole iu tho race for tho Republican nomination for Congress from this district You have shown a disposition to treat tho opposition to Ryan with marked contempt, both on account ot their character and influence, as viewed by the Eaole, and' their number, which, according to tho Eaole is quite inconsiderable in Sedgwick county. You are not disposed to give us credit for tho least sincerity or honesty. You took up the cudgel for Ryan against tho world, long before tho congressional committee was called together, and with a vchcmcnco unusual with the Eaole, have battered away at his imaginary enemies ever since. You seem to go on tho principle, that bo- causc your Captain Bobadio is a member of Congress, aud has resorted to the usual devices of a Congressman ambitious for a second form, it is a species of sacrilege to even suggest that a better man might possibly bo found.

You havo adduced and reiterated your favorite argument that your patron was certain of a nomination, in tho face of the fact that long before anybody was in tho field against him, there was a united and determined opposition to him in every county in the district west of Harvey, on account of his evident subserviency to disreputable factions and combinations. You have refused to publish anv thing that pretends to discuss tho merits or demerits of the respective candidates, if against your man. Now, it occurs to me that if wo aro so few and insignificant as you affect to believe, you could afford to speak kindly of us, and I have yet to learn that it is a crimo for a Republican to support his preference in tho party conventions, notwithstanding ho may differ with tho Eagle. A few weeks ago you announced that tho opposition to Ryan in this county consisted of but two persons, and snceringly added that these wcro office-holders. I am not ashamed to acknowledge that I havo been twice elected to an office of great tiust aud honor, and by no means do I consider this a sufficient reason for my neighbors and friends to stamp me out, however agrceablo it might be to tho Eagle mau.

I am also gratified to know that my coutiuuancu in office decs not depend upon the favor of any Congressman. You have tho undoubted right to control your own columns, and to push your private fortunes if yon pleac, but it is always fair to givo both sidc3 a hearing, and a paper that claims to bo the organ of a great party should uot do the work merely of a little clique. In your last issue you say that Judge Peters has hut threo supporters iu Wichita, and theso you aro pleased to call Jonahs, and you threaten to remember theso for their disobedience. Now, Jonah was an eloquent orator and statesman of "ye olden time," commissioned by the Almighty to turn the wicked city of Niuevch from the evil of its way3. Jonah was refractory aud took ship for Tarshisb, and the Lord was justly augry thereat.

A fearful tempest arose, and the voyagers were nearly dead with terror, all except whom to their infinite disgust they found "down in sides of the ship," fast asleep. Having awakened him, they drew lots to boc whoso transgression occasioned tho storm, and the lot fell upon Jonah, of course. Whether they put up a job on Jonah, as the editor of tho Eaole helped to do on Judgo Brown two years ago, tho sacred narrative is silent. At any rate they discovered the guilty party aud cast him into the sea, aud the tempest abated. Luckily, Jo nah was taken aboard by a friendly whalo and conveyed to the neighbor hood of Niuevch, which city ho visited, converted aud saved.

If the Eagle stands iu the same relation to the Republicans of Sedgwick county, as the Lord Almighty did to tho festive mariners ou board the good ship of the Tarshish line, then I am unquestionably a Jonah, and thero aro one or two perhaps three Jonahs in Wichita. Thero is food for reflection in this story of Jonah. If tho ship-master had not found and awakened him, tho lot might have fallen on an innocent mau, and Jonah ana all board, would have gone down to the bottom of the sea and been eaten by little fishes, aud the luckless Ninevitcs would havo continued iu sin and been destroyed. So the Eaole, by its incessaut, unwanted, and I might say interested, blowiug and gong-beating, has awakened many Jonahs, and if you undertake to throw them all overboard, you will bo too busily engaged to pack the next convention in the Interest of "Tho Old Man." However, Marsh, if you aro deter mined to throw iu all overboard, send along your whalo and we'll go to Nineveh. Gratefully, W.

LOSEE BRO'S. DZR.TJC3- STOBB AND MEDICAL DISPENSARY 03 Douglat Avenue. PHOVESSIOXAL. I regard it only proper to offer my personal thanks to those who have employed me, for the confldcncc bestowed in me; shown by the amount or professional services called upon to perform at my ofilec, during tho time I have been in Wichita; and in addition to mention that I have, ever since engaging In the practice of medicine, several years since, provided with ampl hospital teachings, held sacred that trust conflded in physicians by their patients, and I do assure yon this is one of my primary requisites. When called on to give advice or render other assistance, Ido itinabcniflceiitsplnt, believing that the truephilau-thropic heart acts from purely devotional motives in the amelioration of human suffering.

By the light of science, we can now dispense with the barbarisms, superstitions, egotisms tho tine qua non that fettered worldly progress during those prolonged dark and dire days when ignorance ruled and when the imaginary gods and the Inrernal hosts kept In perpetual fear the wretched pcoole. Now days we do not attribute each pain, each lesion wo suffer from to the vengeful wrath of the dreadlul demons of the-infernal. We look upon our sufferings philosophically, reasoning from causo to effect, knowing that for every violation of sanitary laws there is in reserve for us a proportionate rewaid ot suffering. If wcsqnaidertoo lavishly the precious principal that sustains mental and physical action we know positively that exhanstion, possibly and very probably imbecility, tr Insanity awaits us. Uraln and nerve sustensnee, suited to our well being is supplied us in quantities sufficient to maintain that exquisite harmony which exists in the human being; that most wonderful intcrblending- and co-operation of the dynamical with the matcrialof mind with matter.

Disable the equilibrium and the inevitable consequences are certain; weakness, nervousness, restlessness, headache, Impaired memory, solitary hallts, despondensy all theso mean some-'hing. Mortification and sUf-sacrillce often follow indiscretion, but could the misery entailed end with us the punishment would not be to unwarrantable, notio howcvei, most always the crimes of the guilty lie In wait for the innocent that are to follow. Perpetual nse with expenditure, unaccompanied by appropriate recuperation or supply, whether of brain or physical force, ultimately end in diminished cerebral vital ity and natural power. Undue exercise of a ny organ or r3rt, leads to incapacity of that organ or part, and this exhaustive process may be carried to each an extent that flnallypirtial or complete destruction follows. Neither mewnolcnor auysmgio poruvir ur onr c6nsimiti.

w1ji survive longunder excessively abnormal stimulation. Wo are not suited to endure a great while the bnrdens we expect ourselves to bear. It takes supple energies to manufacture and keep in sood repair, brain and nerve tisue3 that are continually subjected to the destructive influences of such agents as strong and bodily overwork, say nothing of etill more, terrible enemies to healthy cerebral function. The very existence or.i healthy brain and mind depends on an equal balance between the Various material elements, and organs of the body; and to sustain this balance no undue taxation shonld be put on nnyonc portion. There arc certain habits of body that are loathsome and pernicious to vital if encouraged oflcn rob health of Its sunniest days, mind of its lloweriest hopes, happiness of ail ita Joys.

Besides tho already mentioned antagonists to lire, there arc othcrnox-iotu poisons even more specific in character; that on en- tenng the portals or the body contaminate the blood, and ir permitted to remain, soon gain mastery 07cr the functions and work untold evil by converting peace into discord, pleasure into misery. Too much caution cannot bo exercised in efforts to avoid the evil consequences that may arise from lack of precaution Many a one led on by the treacheries of lite, when tho deplorable sequel arrives: the canopy that has all along concealed the trouble ahead has been removed, and the truo precarious situation made known is amazed, and wonders how the delusion could have been so perfect. Dreadful as such a situation may be, there is an antidote in medicine, a means by which farmer self can be regained. Your Obedient Servant, D. MA1TLAXD LOSEE, M.D.

Tho new Sisger agent at thU placo would have peoplo bellevo that only agents for tho Singer 31analacturicg can sell a machine. This is entirely false-, anil when the public inow to well that Ibis company Is antj has been lor the past ten year, taking back tuousandsot worthlcso and worn-oat machines, rebuilding and seU-injj them again as new ones, wo wonder how io could havo the audacity to ay that rebuilt machine can be bought of tho new companies which havo dnly 'existed sinco too Singer's patent expired, ono year ago, and who sell for Jcah and never tako back a machine. If you buy a Henry Stewart Singer manufactured In New York City, a WIH'ioias Singer manufactured in Canada, or a Chicago Singer, you run no risk of scttiuij a rc-built machine as you do in buying theno ot tho Singer manufacturing company. This Is self-evident for the reasons given above. Another fact is, that tho newStszcrx.ro sold on their actual merits and not on an old reputation, as the others arc.
