ter of furnishing facilities for handling
grain should be made at an early date.
If a railroad company can ignore the
rights of its patrons, who produce the
grain hauled by said company, and
force the people to patronize the ele-
yator and grain combine, 1t is import
ant that the people should know it.
We don't believe that a railroad COM
pany can force the people of Kansas
to submit to the high-handed methods
of eXtortiOn practiced by the r " or
Midland Elevator company in this ana
other states This is not q political
question; it is a business problem, to
be settled by business men. The people
of this state are getting little weary
of having barriers placed in their way
by a certain railroad company to force
then to support trust elevator com
pany.
IF railroad corporation can station
along its right of way lot OF pirates
and force the people to submit to their
brigandism before they can ship the
surplus products of their farms, the
people are in a horrible condition. 1t
is a condition that the people of Kan
sas will not long tolerate. Think OF
corporation leasing its right of way to
elevator combines and then refuse the
farmers who raise the grain the same
privilege The fact that the farmers
have organized to attend to their own
shipping business is sufficient evidence
that they have not received fair treat
ment-
Nobody denies that there Is a sufd-
cient number of elevators at many
points to accommodate the business at
those points, but the fact that they VIII
not accommodate the patrons unless
they submit to extOrtion and robbery
ought to be sufficient for the railroad
company to cancel their lease and pro
hibit their operation. 1t ought to be
sufficient cause for leasing to the farm
ers who rise en- masse as a protest
against extortion.
1.-THE argument used by the corpora
ton to secure a second line of railroad
was that it would afford competition
and thereby secure cheaper freight
rates. The people tolerated the second
Hne.and in some instances the third and
fourth, thinking they were getting
competition. The people are now ask
ing for a lease of few rods of land
on the right of way that they formerly
donated to. the railroad company, upon
which they desire to erect an elevator
and handle their own products without
paying tribute to combine elevators
that now have monopoly of the bust
ness along a certain line of railroad in
Kansas They are now met with the
declaration by certain railroad corpora
tons that there are elevators enough
to handle the business, and therefore
deny them the right to compete with the
trust with equal advantage. In sub
stance, the railroad corporations have
notified the people that they must sub
NIT to the extortiOn Of the elevator
combine and the grain trust or handle
age. The railroad con missionerss as
we understand them, clearly see the in
Justice perpetrated upon the farmers.
Nobody win deny that one railroad
is sufficient to handle the business

and yet there are a number Of places
where they are parallel lines. One rail-
road is sufficient to accommodate any

Says Railroads Should Furnish

Up Question.
MUST PROVIDE PLACE.

A great many of the cases that are
filed with the state board of railroad
commissioners are applications for
leases for grain elevators on the right
of way of railroads. Before coming to
the board with them the parties have
been refused leases by the railroad
CON panies.
To James Butler. secretary of the
Farmers Cooperative Grain and Live
Stock association, these occurrences are
evidence of discrimination against the
farmer by the railroads, as compared
with other shippers of freight He
brings forward the points that rail-
roads are compelled to furnish depots
goods hauled to the track before the
car comes along that is to bear it away
and the railroad itself furnishes men
to carry boxes, barrels and cases IN
and out of the cars. Mr.. Butler urges
that a test case for an elevator priv
ilege be argued along this line before
the board. He believes that under the
new railroad commission law the board
cannot enter on the right of way of a
road and compel it to grant a lease,
but he thinks it can compel it to estab-
Hsh and maintain at its own care d
depot for grain freight as well as it
could for a passenger station or q. depot
for freight of other classes
These cases are very much the same,
and each of these applicants presun-
ably know nothing Of the other" Mr..
Butler said in an interview today. IF
these people were co-operators, they
would get together and make q few
test cases at nominal price to each,
and settle the disputed questions As
1T is they are weak and little attention
is paid to their request If they were
united and strong. they would CON
mand and receive fair treatment. They
would secure their rights How long, o
Lord, before farmers win learn the ne
