souri, Pacific Extension.
FROM IUKA TO KlNSLEY

Stock.
FROM lUKA TO KNSLEY

The Missouri Pacific Railroad company
has decided TO build line from Iuka TO
ISinsley, kan, a distance Of fifty miles.
This line. when completed, VIII open up
zen townships with population OF 400
.peopie, to Wichita wholesalers and man
nfactursrs, and make this city the point
through which 100000 bushels Of grain
VII annually be sent to market
Two weeks ago Secretary Resing Of the
Commercial club began a correspondence
with the Missouri Pacific officials with
the object in view of inducing them TO
build the line. He called attention 70 the
fact that a country which produced go. .
765 bushels OF wheat IL 1900 and 133 e32
bushels Of wheat in 1901, was without
railroad facilities, and that a large
amount OF the product Of that section
was hauled 10 Kinsley and thence shipped
u eastern markets over the Santa Fe
railroad. or else IL was hauled 20 Pratt
and then shipped over the Rock Island or
Santa Fe routes. He called attention to
the fact that if the proposed line should
be built al that business wiuld be di-
verted 20 the Missouri Pacific road
The section TO be penetrated by the
new road is also well adapted to stock
raising.
Mr.. Resing was assisted in laying these
facts before the railroad officials by a
committee from Pratt county. in which
1uka Is located.
The railroad VIII build thirty miles OF
the proposed line this year. and the re-
fnhinder WI probably be built next sum
Tner.
The territory to be opened by the new
line has heretofore largely secured its
wholesale supplies from Hutchinson, but
II was necessary 70 haul the goods a
considerable distance overland. When the
new road is completed the people Of that
district can reach Wichita by raf.
The fact that loo 500 bushels Of grain
is TO be sent through Wichita Is Of I'm
portance because OF the fact that mil
lion bushei elevator VIII be built here
and that al efforts are being made to
make this city a great grain center. The
stock in those ten townships VIII be
shipped to the Wichita stock Yards

TIE republicans of Santa Cruz county are to be congratulated upon the way in which they are getting together and the harmony which is growing up among them.

vsrsal rule2 By no means. And it
 is the duty of a newspaper to
 criticise such men whenever it
 thinks they are deserving of criti-
 cism, During eight years now this
 newspaper has discharged that
 duty, and it will continue to dis
 charge it. In discharging that
 duty the course of the paper will
 be as in the past. It will make no
 assertions 1t cannot prove by Ireputa ble witnesses. And when it
 makes such assertions those touch
 ed will not help their cases by
 swearing about the. streets, and
 using abusive language. It is not
 necessary now to recall any names.
 Everybody knows what is meant in this instance. And every man who calculates upon mixing in public matters will do we'll to bear in mind what is here written. Nogales is within the pale of civili- zation, and within the confines of country enjoying the blessings of free government. The liberty of the press and freedom of speech | are among those blessings, and are a part of the machinery of civili- | zation. And citizens of Nogales t and Santa Cruz county taking part in public affairs are just as \ much bound by those great prin- | ciples as is the president in the White House or the governor of any state. That Is the doctrine which prevails all over this broad and and 1t prevails in Nogales. )nly two weeks ago Henry Wat .erson in public address severely President Roosevelt as the cowboy politician" and the man horseback" Did Roosevelt immediately pick d personal quar- 'el with Watterson? The next week he appointed him one of the official board of visitors to West Point. That Is the spirit which V HE OASIS stands for in Nogales, md 1t is the spirit which will ventually prevail.

LAST week the Vidette declared an intention of reproducing from time to time articles which ap- peared in THE OASIS during the years that the republican party was divided. That the Vidette is perfectly at liberty to do. The re- publicans in Nogales have buried the hatchet and it will remain buried. Nothing that the Vidette can say or do will work q split in the republican ranks. All have seen the folly of such work, and they will hereafter present united front to the common enemy.

APPLY THE UNIVERSAL RULE.

Men who figure in public affairs
 on the great theatres of national
 and state politics oppose and
 criticise one another freely In
 both of those arenas any public
 man who takes a position upon
 any public question whatever ex-
 poets criticism, and if he has con
 fidence in the correctness of his
 position he invites it. And should
 public man so far forget him.
 self as to lose his temper at ad-
 verse criticism and become vulgar
 and abusive toward his opponent,
 he would be quickly made to feel
 the displeasure of the public. In
 fact that is what has very recently occurred in the matter of the South
 Carolina senators. It will be recollected that Senators Tillman and McLaurin, both from that state, between whom there had
 been more or less feeling, engaged
 Tn personal encounter upon. the floor of the senate. As a punish ment they were both suspended from their seats, and the president withdrew an invitation which had been given Senator Tillmann to attend a, banquet at the White House in honor of Prince Henry of Germany. Then nephew of Senator Tillman, wno is lieutenant governor of South Carolina, took it upon himself to withdraw an in- vitation to the president to make the presentation speech at the Charleston exposition, where Major Jenkins, the South Carolina representative in the Rough Riders, was to be honored with the gift of a handsome sabre. And at the same time the Tillman entourage gave it out that should the presi- dent carry out his intention of visiting Charleston he would be publicly insulted, if not subjected to personal violence. Immediately the sensible people of South Caro- lina arose in their dignity and pro ! ceeded to squelch the TiIlmans. Another and finer presentation sword was procured. President Roosevelt visited Charleston and presented the weapon amid the plaudits of the multitude, and his journey through the Palmetto 'tate was a grand ovation. The Tillmans "went away back and sat down."
 The same rule which maintains in he public affairs of the nation and 'f states, prevails also in cities and 'ounties of any size and conse- IuehUe. You cannot pick up Chicago, San Francisco or Los Angeles newspaper in which you will not read criticisms of men vho hold municipal office or who lspire to have voice in shaping affairs. Now then are santa Cruz county and Nogales U Iifferent from the rest of the y he country Or are the men ? rho aspire to mix in local 'olitics of clay so superior that hey shall not submit to the uni .

From tho Deadwood Independent we
make the following brief excerpt con-
cerning the marriage Of Mr. Chambers
Kellar, formerly Of this place:
"The ceremony making Mr.. Cham
bers Kellar and Miss Florence Bullock
husband and wife was performed at l
O'Clock today at the residence Of the
BRIDES parents on Ingleside. Only the
relatives and immediate friends of
both families were present at the we'd
ding.
"The bride is the youngest daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Seth Bullock, and has 8
lived most of her life in Deadwood,
where she has, by her charming and
gracious manner, made host of
friends. The groom is one OF Dead
woods leading attorneys, being a
member Of the firm of Moody, Kellar &
Moody. He has lived here for q num-
Der of years and looked upon as one Of
Deadwood's most promising young
men,"
The STAR extends congratulations,
feeling more than passing interest in
Mr. Kellar. he having entered upon the
practice of his profession here, in which
he is making such a brilliant success.

interesting Revival Services.

Rev. E. F. Walker, the evangelist,
together with the pastors of the city,
began series of revival meetings at
the Congregational church last Sunday
afternoon, and they have been contin-
ued every afternoon and evening since.
Much interest is being manifested in
them. Rev. Mr.. Walker is an earnest
preacher, though there is sufficient wit
and humor about him to entertain his
congregation when the gospel without
q skip might be devoid of interest to
some. But he arouses a deep and ab-
sorbing interest in what he is preach
ing for-that sinners may realize where
they stand and seek salvation. The
attendance has been good, and the
pastors express satisfaction in what
has been accomplished, and hope for
excellent results.
The meetings will continue another
week, afternoons at 2:3O and evenings
at 1880.
