HOMER B. M'KINLEY
Granted Street Car Franchise by
Salem Council Last tuesday
Night.
Night.

The regular meeting of the coun.
ell was to have been held Monday
night, but q quorum failed to turn
mp. A special needing was set for
Wednesday Bisht ,but other matters
necessitated q calf meeting Tuesday
night. The granting Of a street
car franchise was the principal bust.
ness to come before the council.
Homer Mckinley, cashier of the
Merchants and Producers Bank. had
made an application for a franchise
some time since.
There was ,some opposition, but
not enough to cause any delay. So
the granting of the franchise went
through a whirliug. The franchise
Is almost an exact copy OF the ia
NOUS Cleveland franchise, which
has proven to be the best.
1t is now supposed that Mr., Nc
Kinley will move this thing along
rapidly and that Salem will soon
have street cars
This Is the entering wedge to one
Of the finest street car line In the
State, which will extend from
Clarksburg to Sistersvilie. Consid
eriug the large number of towns
through which 1t would pass and at
the same time considering the fat
tering future of this region, 1t would
make franchise through this Sec
ton worth $4,000 or 500, 900.
Cashier Mckinley has the key tc
the situation. Good for our towns

10000 PEOPLE
LIVE HERE
That Is the Estimate of Wich-
ita's Population,
MADE BY DIRECTORY MAN
Gain of 5000 inhabitants in
10 Months.
CAREFUL FIGURES MADE
Liberal Allowance Made for
Duplicates and Corporations.
CAREFUL FIGURES MADE

The population Of Wichita is 5000. ac-
rording 10 the estimate made by ". H.
Burche. who is preparing the new city
directory.
The estimate is made after a careful
canvass of the city, and by computations
based on the experience obtained in pre-
vious work in preparing directories.
The canvassers, who were each assigned
certain part of the city, returned Is 800
names. emitting the names OF all people
under IS years of age. ard also the
names of all married women.
It was estimated that about 500 Of the
names returned were the names of firms
or corporations, and these were stricken
from the list before the population Of the
city was computed. This left 1900 names.
II has also been demonstrated by expert
ence that about one-third of the names
secured in a canvass Of the city would
be duplicates. Subtracting one-third OF
5000 or 5000, there still remain 10000
people in this city over is years Of age,
exclusive of married women. It is uni
versally estimated that the people over
IS years Of age, exclusive of married wo-
men, compose one-third of the popula-
ton, and figuring on thiszbasis. the esti-
mate of 10000 inhabitants of Wichita was
made. The people included in this esti-
mate are those residing within the legal
city limits, or in tracts of land entirely
surrounded by the city, as for example,
Mathewsons reserve, east of Wabash
avenue. While the residents of these
tracts are not legally in the city limits,
they are Wichitans TO all intents and
purposes except those of taxation. In
making the above estimate. Mr.. Burche
did not include the people who live in
outlying tracts, contiguous to the city.
The growth of Wichita in the past
eighteen months has been phenomenal
The federal census, in the summer of 1900
gave Wichita a population a few hundred
less than 5000 though it is believed by
many that hundreds of people were over
looked by the census-takers. The est
mate made by Mr.. Burche in July, 1900,
after canvassing the city for the 1901
directory. was 27,OOO. The gain since then
has been 5000
Mr. Burche stated yesterday that the
canvassers had found far fewer vacant
houses than they found eighteen months
ago, and that many new names Will ap-
pear in the directory.

SHORT LINE
TO THE COAST
Santa Fee, 1t Is Said, VIII Con-
meet Panhandle
WITH THE MAIN LINE
California Traffic to Go by
Way of Wichita.
GRADES ARE TOO HEAVY
Build Road TO Compete With
New Rock Island Line,
GRADES ARE TOO HEAVY

It is reported on good authority that
the Santa re officials are planning to
build a road from the Panhandle Hne
near Amarillo. Texas. 10 the Pacific coast
!ine. striking the latter near Albuquerque.
If these plans are carried out the Cali
fornia traffic of the Santa Fe system
from eastern and central points VIII be
diverted from that part of the main line
between Newton, kan, and Albuquerque,
y NJ. to the Panhandle division ana by
way Of Wichita
This policy has been decided upon by
the santa Fe officials it is said both
because OF the extension of the Rock IS
land line to FL Paso. Texas. giving it and
its connecting lines a shorter route from
Kansas City TO southern California points
than the Santa Fe, and also because the
heavy grades on the main lines Of the
Santa Pc between Trinidad, Colorado,
and Albuquerque.
The Rock island line 10 FL Paso. Texas,
runs through a comparatively level coun-
try and the highest grade on thai road
between Kansas City and Fl Paso is SIS
on the Santa Fe line between Trinidad,
Col, and Ration. y. NJ. is 1913 feet to the
mile, and the maximum grade between
Las Vegas, \. N. and Albuquerque, is
1881 feet to the mile
Because Of these facts the Santa Re Of
dcials realize that their road viii find q
powerful rival in the Rock Island for
trans continental business, unless a
shorter line ana one with lighter grade
than the present one is built
Another extension which it is said the
Santa Fe intends 10 make rs a result Of
the building Of the El Paso line Of the
Rock Island is TO build a line from Ros-
well, y. NJ. on the Panhandle line 10 FL
Paso. a distance of 100 miles. At present
the II Paso traffic of the Santa Fe from
the east is sent by way Of the main line
to Albuquerque and thence over the
branch to Fl PasO In handling FL Paso
business the Santa Fe must contend with
the same high grades that It does in its
California business
The distance from Kansas City to Fl
Paso by the Santa Fe route is LIP miles
while by the new Rock Island line it is
945 miles. When the new Santa Fe line is
built the distance between Kansas City
and Fl Paso by way OF Wichita and the
Panhandle line VIII be $50 miles or sixty
two miles shorter than the Rosk Island
hcials have taken into consideration is
that FL Paso is the gateway between the
United States and Mexico.

While we have seen nothing IN
the Prescott papers lately concern
ing the Stock Exchange, the Daily
Mining Record speaks editorlally
as follows, in Saturdays paper:
"Arizona's mining stock ex-
change is now assured. Arizona is
right up with the band wagon in
the onward march Of the mining
states and territories"
For the good OF this section, as
we'll as all Arizona, we trust the
announcement is AUTHENTIC and
and that the exchange will be or
ganized at once. Nothing will do
SO much for Arizona's mining in
terests as a stock exchange, because
it will be the first step towards put
ting the mining industry on a le-
gitimate basis in this territory, the
scene of so many gigantic frauds
by eastern concerns. Everyone in
terested in the development of the
most important industry in the ter
ritory, and one that will soon make
Arizona one of the wealthiest states
in the Union, should, and no doubt
do, favor the stock exchange move
ment, realizing that it is the one
thing which will rid the territory
of mining swindlers and restore
confidence in the minds Of invest
ors.
