Brown is After Simpson,

Representative W. f. Brown, of Pratt,
has given out statement in which ne
directly charges that Senator Harris and
Jerry Simpson were responsible for the
defeat OF railroad legislation last win
ter. In it he says:
First, will assert that w. A. Harris,
aided by his first lieutenant, Jerry Simp-
son, defeated the maximum freight rate
bill.
Second, assert that Mr.. Harris was
in collusion with the railroads from the
day of his election, and that they, in re-
turn for the support, gave him their
support for the position of United States
Senator, and have dictated his every
act and his policy from the day the
Legislative session opened.
Third, | assert that the bill intro
duced by Senator Harris was drafted by
bevy of railroad attorneys, as was
the Walters bill and the Farrelly bill,
or If they did not wholly draft them,
they had the privilege of reviewing them
and striking out such portions as were
obnoxious and inserting such portions
as were particularly favorable to them"
Mr.. Brown adds to the above PROPOSE
tions that Bailey Waggener, attorney
for the Missouri Pacific railroad, after
urging him to see that the Legislature
was conservative on railroad legislation,
asked him to insist on the following pro-
vlsO in any bill that might be offered:
Provided, that any rate fixed by said
Board Of Railroad Commissioners shall
pay maintenance, operating expenses,
taxes and per cent. upon double the
assessed value of the road for the next
preceding year" This was submitted
and suggested as feature of the maxi
mum bill.
He says that he declined to support it
and was offered $4,000 to stand by the
proviso.
Mr.. Brown says that proviso contains
nothing to prevent the padding of ex-
pense accounts, pay-rolls and construc-
tiOn items to such an amount as to
bring in as big dividend as is now
earned and to maintain the present
rates. "This," he adds, "is the central
feature of the bill which Senator Harris
friends say is the real Harris bill"

the action in court relative to rates 1t
Is believed that the company's action
indicates an expectation that the Su-
preme court decision in the case, which
was brought TO test the law, will be ad-
verse to its interests. It is also asserted
that the company, believing the fight to
be lost, felt that it would be cheaper to
reduce rates now than to charge the
old rate and have to rebate the over
charge and pay per cent. interest on
II when the case is finally settled. A
recent circular issued by Attorney Cen
eral Boyle suggests to shippers the ad-
visibility of securing overcharge slips
in accordance with the order of the court
In order that the excess rates might be
recovered with interest. II the company
were sure of defeat it would be worth
many thousand dollars to make the re-
duction now. It is believed that this
had much 10 do with the change. The
yardage charges which are fixed by the
new law are not affected by the reduc-
tion order. A decrease in the cost of
handling stock at the yards ought, and
II seems would naturally result, in an
extensive increase in business at the
Kansas City yards and corresponding
decrease at other places. The new law,
for which Attorney General Boyle has
been so long contending, is practically in
effect now and the State is victorious.

The Stock Yards Gut in Rates.

On the 10Th of November the Kansas
City Stock Yards Company posted no
tice announcing radical reductions in the
rates for feed for stock handled at the
Kansas City yards. These charges are
practically 100 per cent. in excess of the
current market price. Hay has pre-
viOusly cost 81 per hundred but is 1t now
listed at 80 cents Corn has been re-
duced from 81 per bushel to 60 cents and
bran charges are 81 per hundred. This
rate is the same as that provided by
the law passed by the last Legislature
except that the charges are based on the
retail price while some defenders of
the law allege that the wholesale price
was intended to be the basis by the
Legislature.
The officers of the company refuse to
say anything about the reduction except
to say that the action was taken vol
unfairly and has nothing to do with
