THE WESTERN STATES
Send Their Ablest Commercial HUstlerS to
the Topeka Conference.

ence in Topeka this week. Not sc
great in point of numbers as in the
rustling and talking qualities of the
delegates. They were here to talk uI
and promote schemes, and they did it.
It took sometime for the delegates
to come to an understanding as to
what they were here for. Some thought
it was to ask for further appropriations
from congress to deepen the hsrbors OF
the Texas gulf coast, while others
thought the main object of the meet
ing was to start boom for an expOsi-
tion at Galveston. This latter was
Governor Culberson's main idea when
he wrote Governor Morrill,, on August
81, asking him to call conference, and
acting on the request Governor Nor
rill issued the call. Other northern
delegates who had become so used to
attending deep-harbor conventions in
the days gone by, started out to talk
about appropriations and deep water,
and kept it up until they found that
the Texas men had something else on
the tspis. Finally they all got together,
and the result was quite satisfactory.
Some very prominent men were pres
ent and took part in the meeting.
Among them were Senator Vest, Con-
gresham Burton and G. N. Clark, Of
Missouri; Congressman Blackburn and
Governor Fishbsck, of Arkansas; ex-
Governor Hubbard, Congressman Ssyer
and q whole lot of other Texas artillery,
including the great civil engineer,
Prof. L. NJ. Hsupt. There were other
representatives from the states named
above, besides some from Arizona,
California, Colorado, Illinois, Louisi-
ana, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico,
Oklahoma, Utah and Wyoming.
Among the active Ksnqss men were
Howell Jones, d. w. Finney, L. Houk,
OK Governor Click, S. S. King, P. P.
Campbell, j. F. Pancake, S. B. Brad
ford and General Caldwell.
The conference was conducted on
the ordinary plan. Everybody who
had views on the question Of cheap
transportation expressed them. If he
did not it was his own fault. Bushels
of resolutions were read to the conVen-
tion before a rule was passed to have
them all referred to the resolutions
committee without reading. On
Wednesday evening the convention
adopted the resolutions offered by the
committee, which was composed of
two members from each Of the above
named states and territories.
The resolutions call for Q permanent
"water utilization committee" of five
from each state and three from each
territory west Of the Mississippi, to
suggest national and state legislation;
to gather and disseminate information;
to correspond with chambers of COM
merce, mercantile agencies, steamship
lines, ETC., in this any foreign coun-
tries to obtain from transportation
lines the best possible freight rates,
and to guard against and discrimins-
tions therein; to call an international
commercial congress, if they deem it
advantageous, to take such steps as it
deems wise to encourage the extending
and building of north and south rail-

IT is now reported that the two
hundred and 1fty dollars which VIM.
Davis checked out OF the peniteutlary
office TO District Attorney Crlst in re-
turn for his Communication of sentence,
was not all the money invested in this
mysterious case. There Is said to have
been another payment Of $3.50, which
did not go through the warden's Of
Zee, and Consequently there is no pub
lie record Of 1t. The consideration
for this sum was to be a full and i'm
mediate pardon. Owing to the out
cry over the Communication the goods
were never delivered. At present
Davis Is not allowed to say anything,
but in February, when his time isout,
a very interesting story may be ex-
pected from him. District Attorney
Crlst will do well to remember that
the dispute which resulted in the
death Of Fox and the incarceration Of
Davis was over a smaller sum than is
involved 10 this transaction. II might

WnEN the last Liberal Vas printed

WHEN the last LIBERAL was printed
the result of the election in Kentucky
and Utah was uncertain. Complete
returns show that both went repub-
lican. Mississippi and Virginia both
remain in the democratic column.
Both the gold men and the silver men
claim that the results in Kentucky
are favorable to their side. The gold
men say that Hardin, the democratic
candidate for governor, was a free sill
yer man and was beaten. The free
silver men admit this to be true but
say that the reason he was beaten was
because he vas standing on a gold
platform, that he ran ahead of all the
gold men on the platform.

On the first page is an account Of
the lnal outcome Of a contempt of
court case In New York There, as at
Albuquerque, a newspaper attacked
the court, and the proprietor was
brought up, charged with contempt.
Here the parallel stops. The Albu-
querque nan plead guilty, said the
article Was untrue and, 'as a result, is
now playing checkers with his nose in
the Albuquerque Jail. The New York
man stood by his guns, justified his ar
ticle and put up such a beautiful scrap
that he ratified the judge so badly
that he could not make out the COM
mitmant in a proper shape aud the
court Of appeals turned him loose.
Some Of the territorial papers are ex-
pressing considerable sympathy for
mar who is playing the baby in the
Albuquerque Jail, but IL is wasted, he
is entitled to nonc. When a newspa-
per mar will print an article and then
get down on his knees he deserves

by Governor Mckinley. Ex-Governor
Foraker followed Mckinley. Governor
Mckinley said in part:

platforms OF both the republican and

graduated the people that at last the
Ohio democracy had declared for
sound money" After criticising the
foreign and domestic policy OF the
