A TRIBUTE TO PIERCE.

The committee appointed for that pur-
| pose reported at the board OF trade meeting
/ yesterday afternoon as follows:
! Resolved, That years of unselfsh labor

upon Wichita. From the day that ne be-
came unit in the board of trade he rose
above the level of comman citizenship,
became the champion of Wichita, the
friend of Southwestern Kansas and the
! advocate of the commonwealth in its en-
tirety, as against all foes without and NAL
! contents within the state.
Apparently unconscious OF his residence
| in Wichita, he acted as though South
western Kansas was one county, and he a
citizen of il, entering heartily into all
matters brought before the board, whether
| the result for Wichita was immediate,
coutiu gent or remote, he promoted har.
mony, and won friends for the city.
Strangers who entered our gates" and
met him, were impressed with the posi-
bilities of " Wichita, the unity OF the board
and the faith of our people IN themselves.
His practical insight into freight ship
ments and rates, the result OF patient,
painstakin3 laborious industry. His
! thorough statistical Information on all
matters surpassed only by his detailed
and connsumate knowledge of the reSour-
ces of Kansas. have made Wichita his
debtor. Our fame as an uEselhsh, har-
monious, original commercial entity, is
due TO him, as mucn as 20 any other one
individuality in tEe board.
The incubation OF the truth that the
location. railway situation and surround
ings of Wichita, taken with its tributary
trade envirous and the distance from other
natural Kansas jobbing points, logically
demonstrated that Wichita Was the COM
