GET. JUSTICE
Rates to Texas Points to be
Lowered.
SAYS BOARD OF TRADE
Want to be Friendly With
the Railroads.
SAYS BOARD OF TRADE

1t was the talk among the members of
the Wichita board of trade yesterday that
the railroads had agreed to reduce rates
on wheat and -four to Texas points three
to five cents per hundred pounds and
that the railroad agents here would re-
ceive notice to that effect probably to-
day.
This market has been practically cut
off from the Texas trade for several
monlns on account of the high rates and
it would seem from this that the roads
have become convinced that their rates
about righting them.
The members of the board of trade
were highly pleased over the result which
they claimed had been brought about
through the influence of their organiza-
ton. There is plenty of evidence going
to show that the organization of the
board of trade has had the effect of bring
ing about a better understan ding between
the grain men and millers and the rail-
roads.
The railroad are all right" said one
o. The biggest shippers in this city yes
terday. They can have no object in in
julie " icllild lIey nave never HI
tended to do so. Since we have organ
lied we are in better shape to present
our claims to the roads and we are get
ting along all right.
Il am willing to chance my all on the
favorable location of Wichita for the
grain and milling business and / am one
of the fellows who are everlastingly OPP
posed to cut rates or drawbacks. The
grain man or miller who cannot do bus.-
ness without getting an inside rate has
missed his calling and ought TO quit and
If he doesn't quit he ought to be froZe
out. All that we want is just as good
rates as our competitors and we will
hoe our own row. The very best thing
that could happen for every legitimate
grain dealer and miller would be for all
the railroads to make an ironclad rule
and stick to it, never TO give any man
an inside rate. The Wichita grain men
and millers are only asking an even show
in the race. They are not asking any
special favors. They are willing and
anxious for the railroads to put grain
men and millers on an equal footing and
then let the best ruStlers win.
Wichita is already commercial con-
ter and it is going to be a big grain and
milling center. We want to be on good
terms with all the railroads and the way
to keep on good terms with them is to tell
tlrem that We do not want special favors.
Let the men who have the products to
ship do the business with the railroads.
Wichita needs all the railroads she can
get and when we get them we grain men
and millers of the board of trade want
them to be friends of Wichita. They can
best befriend us by using every place
alike"

TRIED TO KILL HIMSELF,
Mr.. Brown Shot While Under InfIu-
ence of Morphine.

A man giving his name as Brown tried
to commit suicide in the Royal saloon
about 2:30 this morning. He had been
taking morphine. and also some whiskey
He had been loafing around the saloon a
considerable time trying TO get some bets
on the coming election.
While standing almost in the center of
the room, and at a time when the attend
ants backs were turned, he suddenly
drew a revolver and shot once. His nerve
did not hold out after the first shot, and
the gun was taken away before he could
shoot again.
He was arrested and taken to the
police station. In his pockets were found
a box containing half a dozen morphine
tablets, and it is said that he uses them
habitually.

Fine Attraction Friday Night.

On Friday night at the Audito-
rum II. v Esmond's beautiful
comedy when we were FL" will
be presented. To speak of this
play Is to suggest the thoroughly
sound moral lesson 1t teaches AT
ter seeing the lovely Phyllis and
her mother at Dicks home, and
then seeing those women at the
Corinthiau Club, who could hest
tate for moment as to which com.
pany he would prefer? The con-
trast Is made all the more effective
by finding ones self taken from the
happy home to the hateful club and
back to the home again. to fall In
love more than ever with PHYLLIS
and Dick. And what greater hero
Ism is there than Dick ? 1t doesn't
require remarkable man to dare
all sorts of things for the woman he
loves; but to think of a refined
gentleman associating himself with
a scarlet woman to save fool boy
from her clutches. We believe
there is no sounder instruction In
good morals nor more powerful,
than Is found In such play as
when we were FL" except In
deed, In the good lives Of the good
people we see about as Surely
there Is no more delightful way of
receiving instruction. No COM
pany has ever received greater
praise than the ladies and gentle
men engaged to portray Esmond's
life like characters

of William Morris and John 7.
