costs 3 SO q mile 20 pay operating expenses
Inere are branches IN Kansas on which not
one-third OF the amounts given IS earned or eL-
pended. while the main lines IN eastern kan
sas cost more to operate and earn much more
money than the average shows There are
only four short roads or branches in Kansas
that did not earn enough to pay operating eL-
penses and taxes last year They are the
branches Of the Chicago. Burlington & Quincy,
IN northern Kansas, which run only short dis
tances into Kansas in the extreme northwest
ern and northeastern parts OF the state; the
line Of the ChicaEO-Great Western between
Kansas City and Leavenworth- the Leaven-
worth, Kansas s Western and the Manhattan,

the main line Of the Union Pacific which runs
directly through the state from Kansas City to
the Colorado line. less than so miles. and
earned more than S1,5OO. .OCO above expenses

most money and has the most track. It spent
s., ,5S9, 755 on operating expenses and had almost
& 600 900 left 70 pay interest and increase the
sinking fund The Chicago, Rock Island &
Pacific shows the advantage Of economical
management It spent less than 100000 for
operation and has Il. CO., 900 left for the bond
holders and stockholders The Rock Island has
nearly half as much mileage as the S;,nta F's
and not twO-thirds as much as the tfissOuri
Pacific, which has only 81. OOOOOO left after all
expenses are paid The Rock Island IS one Of
the few roads which has no iron raiI- It is
constructed Of steel exclusively. The Missouri
Pacific has several short branches wsth iron
rails and the Santa Fe has remnant Of old
track built Of iron rails There are only 653
miles Of iron rails in all the Kansas railroads.

Attorney General BoyIe,s Report.

Topeka, Kan, Dec 19.-In his an
nual report Attorney General Boyle
recommends that more help be allowed
in his Office Every officer in the state
of Kansas, from road Overseer up,
seems to have come to the conclusion
that it is the duty of the attorney
general to answer any and all ques-
tiOns that may be submitted; and IN
fortunately the custom has grown,
and indeed is a custom more hOnored
in the breach than in the observance,
Of answering these communications
and delivering official opinions.
