Meade county has taken action In re-
gard to county Indebtedness which, II
followed by the different counties and
townships in the state which are in a
position to refund, would soon take up
all the permanent school fund now on
hand, and at the same time pay inter-

eign companies. They have refunded
$4,000 of their outstanding indebted.
ness into the permanent school fund,
and by so doing have reduced their In
terest rate as well as kept the interest
in the state. Thousands of dollars Of
public Indebtedness is In shape where
such action could be taken, and the
officials in charge could easily take up
the whole of the permanent fund.

AUGUST Is
is DATE SET
For Orient Trains to Enter
Wichita Over Their Tracks.
LINE WILL BE COMPLETED
Into Sweetwater Texas and
Trains Running on That Day.

The Eagle announced Sunday morning
that the Orient was getting up its first
time-table and that the track would be
completed to Milton and trains be run
ming into Wichita over the Missouri
Faciic tracks by February 5. The Eagle
has some additional advices touching the
Orient and Wichita Many of our people
had concluded that for seemingly obvious
reasons the Orient would not construct
its line from Milton on into Wichita
but would use the Missouri Pacific tracks
and station. This Is q mistake The
Orient will be built Independently into
TINS city and over the right-of-way
heretofore selected. The contract calls
for the completion of the road mo
Wichita by August %. 1895 There Is no
guess work about this. as the in1orma-
ton comes from the most reliable source
and is positively correct
The work on the line into Milton Is
very heavy There is one cut nearly
2.0oo feet long and IS feet deep. and part
Of the work Is Of a very heavy nature
Mr. W. G Edwards has returned from
the line and Yesterday stated that every
thing was moving along nicely, the cut
would be completed before the end of
the week and the trains would be run
ming into Wichita on the date given.
With the exception Of some bridges the
line is completed from Harper, Kan. TO
Fairview, Q. T. and last week Mr.. Ed
wards was down getting the graders
started on eighteen miles of line south
OF Fairview- Part Of the line between
Eairview and Sweetwater. Tex, is now
complete, and with favorable weather
Mr. Edwards said the line would be fin
fshed from Wichita to Syeetwater and In
operation by the middle of August The
contractors are pushing with might and
main TO get the work completed on the
dates required by the company. They
are working hundreds OF men. MI Ed
wards having on his pay roll something
over $50 men and teams working on the
line between Wichita and Sweetwater,
q distance Of over 400 miles
One thing the company is striving for
b to get the line completed into Wichita
ut the earliest possible date. \ large
force Of men and teams are working
Milton and as soon as this section is
completed this gang will continue at
work toward this city and will not
waste one minute until the grade is COM
Pleted 10 Wichita over the route survey
ed As given above the Orient must have
its trains running into Wichita before
August =, and the contractors are sure
they will have the track completed on
that date. In the meantime the Orient
trains will be running into Wichita over
the Missouri Pacific tracks

MUCH GOOD ACCOMPLISHED.
Dy Wichita Traffic Bureau During the
Past Year

n. l. Resing. commissioner Of the
Wichita traffic bureau. has made his
nual report to the memb ers Of the hu-
seau- Mr.. Resting has been commissioner
OF the bureau less than a year. but has
accomplished 4 great deal for the benefit
of the Wichita jObbeFs and merchants in
The way Of freight rates. He has been as
sisted by the members OF the bureau and
the merchants and professional men Of
the city and has secured many reductions
in rates that have added much TO the i'm
petus given Wichitas jobbing interests
Lower rates on commodities from the
Atlantic sea aboard. Ohio river. and from
Memphis have been secured. IN some
cases the rates were reduced when the
Determinations were shown 10 the RAD
roads; in others the reductions We're Sc
cured only after a long and hard fight
The reductions are very material ones,
and range in amounts from cents 10 "a
cents per hundred pounds. and on some
classes of goods this has resulted ia the
lowering Of the prices of commodities To
the people of this city and the surround
ing country.
Material reductions have been made in
the sugar rates To this city from all
sources OF supply and from Wichita 70
the jobbing territory naturally tributary.
and a material reduction has been made
on Uananas and implements both coming
to and going from Wichita.
During last summer the bureau labored
long with the railroads TO get them To
recognize Wichita as a johbing point. ard
that her jobbers should have the benefit
of the sa me rates a. other jObbing points.
1t took long time and much hard work
to show the railroads that Wichita was
about the best town on the map, and
would return any fav0rs the railroads
would grant. The rates were finally put
in on trial. and the fact that they are
now in force stands as an argument that
the railroads. after trying these rates,
have found them a good thing for them

NEW HORSE or SPEEDWAY.

On the speedway last week there was
not such good work as characterized tne
week before. IL things are viewed from the
viewpoint of the horseman. During the
week before there were any number OF
exciting brushes between the horses OF
mettle. This week. however. on the ave-
me there was not so good opportunity
for the reason that the cold weather ana
the cut up condition OF the track was not
conducive to good results.
During every afternoon OF the FORMER
week a large crowd could be seen on the
speedway but last week there was only
one day that looked anything like race
day and that was Saturday. Many people
went on Saturday afternoon In the nope
OF seeing some good racing. but there was
not much doing.
There Is some talk concerning a race
hat many hope to see on between Billy
Bashford and Belle Hampton. This FORM
er horse was out on the drive a Few times
and succeeded in taking In tow some OF
the fast ones, notably Belle Hampton.
After that a dispute arose as TO tne
time I'm which the little speed engine could
sneed a half mile. IL was claimed tnat
she could not go under l;01 The owner
maintained that II could be done ana az
the trial the time was 1:o6%. From tha'
