Santa Fe Committees Report.

WELLINGTON, KANs., Feb. IA, 1896.
To the Wellington Commercial Club;
The undersigned committee ap-
pointed by your president to visit
Topeka and confer with the officials of
the A. T. & S. F. Ry Co. with refer
enCe to the railroad situation and
prospects in this city, respectfully
submit the following report:
We arrived in Topeka yesterday
morning and during the afternoon
had conference with H. U. Nudge.
general superintendent of the Santa
Fe system. After reading the reso-
buttons adopted by your body, be made
a very plain, frank and buSiness-like
statement of the railroad situation in
Wellington as viewed from the COM
pany's standpoint. lie stated that
the time had come when the Santa
Fe was compelled to make the earn
tngs Of the road meet its operating
expenses and fixed charges and in
order to accomplish this, a general
reduction was necessary. Then TAX
ing up the transportation department
of the cOmpany's business, represent
ed here by TrainmaSter c. H. Winters
and the force under him, and at Ar
kansas City by TrainmaSter G. T.
Hawks and his force, he explained how
the query had been put whether the
Panhandle division could not be added
! 70 the work of the trainmaster at
Arkansas City without increasing the
force at that point and stated that it
was the opinion of the management
that this could be done. This being
true, there was no sOuLd business
reason why the company should con-
tinue Dpay at least $1,000 each year
in salaries here when the same work
could be done from Arkansas City
and done just as well, without increas-
ing the expenses at that point a single
dollar.
Mr.. Nudge seemed to fully appre.
ciate the friendly disposition of the
city and county towards the Santa
Fe in the past, both in the matter Of
issuing bonds and the patronage ex-
tended to the road. and he assured
your committee that should the time
come in the future when the company
could re-eStabliSh the division super
intendent's headquarters here on bus
mess principles they would very
gladly do so and that Wellington was
regarded by the entire Santa Fe man
agement as one of the first cities in
the Stale % be favored, because Of
her past treatment of the road, when
ever it was possible to do so.
\ With reference to the mechanical
department, he stated very positively
that the company had not the remot
est intention of either removing any
part of the force in this department
or curtailing the scope of the WORK
heretofore done in The round house

A Grand Concert


Was given last Wednesday evening
bytheWellington Military band under
direction Of Harry Canaan of Winfield
formerly of this city.
The program consisted If ten selec,
tions, and was carried through with,
out flaw. The concert was all and
more than advertised. The boys,
after their earnest efforts, deserved
packed house. The citizens who did
not assist them by buying tickets will
regret it when they have no street
concerts next summer. 1t is too bad
that a public institution of this kind
does not receive the encouragement
and goodwill Of the entire community
Wellington has a good band, band
to be proud of; there is not another
band in the state in which there are
so many drUlSUS.
The first number m the program
was Honeymoon" which received a
hearty encore; the band responded
with the classic overture, "Poet and
Peasant" which was heartily re-
ceiyed.
The second selection was the mid
way Plaisance.
Mr.. Layne, assisted by Miss Purcell
and Mr.. H. Il. Bradfeld, next execu-
ted the "Flower Solo," which is a
very clever selection. He received a
hearty encore.
Messrs. Reams and Alter followed
with flute and clarinet duet entitled
"To Hear the Gentle Lark" which
truly proved these gentlemen to be
musicians Of ability.
The orchestra, another institution
of which Wellington should beproud
next rendered an artistic selection
Little Christopher"
The band opened part second witt
very catchy piece entitled "Carniva
Wizard SOngsters. They received ;
hearty encore and responded with
selection, in which Prof. Huust
proved himself to be an artist of abil
ity N the clarinet.
Messrs. Smith and Price then rem
dered a COrnet duet, entitled "SwiS'
Boy" which was well received,
The orchestra followed with med
ley, screen Room Echoes"
Harry H. Bradfleld, assisted b,
Miss Purcell, gave flute solo, which
drew forth rounds of applause, com
polling Mr.. Bradfeld to render an en-
core.
The band then closed the program
with angels Dream" and "Jolly Min
Strels," two very interesting an,
well-rendered selections.
1t is doubtful if any of the concert
given heretofore gave as good salts
faction all the way through as the on
that night. 1t is to be hoped tn
poor encouragement the boys receive
will not cause them to diSband.

roads and other corporations in excess OF

UNION OF TRx PEOPLE.

First. That the union OF the labor forces
Dt the United States this day cOnsummated
shall be permanent and perpetual; may lite
spirit enter into all hearts for the salvation
81 the Republic and the uplifting Of man
kind.
Second. Wealth belongs to him who Gre
ltes it and every dollar taken from industry
without an equivalent is robbery. IF any
nan will not work neither shall he eat. Vt
The interests OF rural and civil labor are the
Iame; their enemies are identical.
Third. We believe that the time has come
when the railroad corporations will either
OWN the people or the people must own the
railroads, and should the government enter
upon the work Of owning and managing all
railroads, we should favor an amendment 70
the Constitution by which all persons en-
ragged In the government service shall be
placed under a civil service regulation OF the
most rigid character, so as TO prevent the In
crease OF the power Of national administra-
hon by the use Of such government en-
Dloyes.
