A heavy rain fell last night about

er, until the rain was changed 10
snow. A high wind ragged all night,
the snow falling heavily. This
morning the snow continued falling,
drifting, badly causing trains 10 be
late, preventing the street cars from
running, stopping business and
causing all kinds Of arrangements
and annoyances. At 10 o'clock this
morning Il was reported at the U. p.

The last meeting OF the CONNER
cial club was more than usually In.
terestlhg by reason Of the subject,
introduced aud the visitor present
Saline counsy's representstive-elee!,
Hon. r. II. Dolan, upon invitation,
remained during the session, and
listened 10 what the members Of the
club had TO say about liberalization
against Salina in the matter OF
freight rates on coal, the methods OF
tax assessments, the condition Of o.
nsnclAl affairs In the county In con-
nectiou with money lending, rates Of
interest, present and prospective,
exemption and stay laws, the matter
Of an asylum for the insane, the beef
peddling ordinance, etc. The discus
siOns were informal, Mr.. DoIAn ask
ing pertinent questions now and
then, and in the matter Of the ordi-
nance above referred TO, urging the
sdvice that the ordinance was too
Irritating to the farmers and Il
should be repealed to prevent IN
pleasant consequences. He seemed
to restrain . manifestation Of very
strong feeling In this matter, and q
general discussion Of the subject
ensued.
While the freight subject was up,
Mr.. Decker presented some interest
ing figures showing the discrImIna-
ton against SsliDa, and though no
specific method OF redress or equIlI-
zAtion was suggested, there was 8
significant murmur of indignation
among the members Of the club. He
had prepared and read to the club,
the following schedule Of rates on
slack coal:
From Pittsburg TO Salina via San
tn Fe, 2Il miles; via Missouri Pacific
258; rates per ton, t2;Iowa rate tl.l2.
From Pittsburg to Hutchinson via
Santa Fe, pa miles; via NJ. P, 243
miles; rate, $50; Iowa rate tl.I2.
From Pittsburg TO Sterling via
Santa Fe, 262 miles; via NJ. p. 281
miles; rates 81 so; lows rate sl.l8.
From Pittsburg 10 Anthony via
santa Fe, pa miles; via NJ. r., PSI
miles; rate 81 50; Iowa rate, tl.li.
LeavenwOrth to Salina via Santa
Fe, PA miles; via NJ. p, 2is miles;
rate, tI.70; Iowa rate fl.l2.
Just Why there should be this DIFF
ference In the rates In Kansas and
lows, 90 largely In favor of Iowa, Il +
Is hard to tell. This 10 . subject Of
much Importance TO the state and
should be agitated until the unjust
be wiped out.
II was q subject Of regret TO the
clubs visitor, As well as to the men,
bers Of the club, that Senator Mohler l
was not present at the meeting, a. l
had been expected. He was at To-
PekA nj the time and could not be
there, though II IL hoped another
will be arranged, when both !
Inc representative and the senator
may he present to consider the above
md other subjects OF Interest 20 the
people OF this county.
