bushels of wheat on the ground near
Cunningham and that threshng is near
ing a close. He states that the cattle
mems convention at K1ngman this year
was the best ever held il that county.
The convention was held on new grounds
this year and the new race track added
much to the interest in the convention.
The association paid all expenses and
came out $1,000 to the good. Mr. Wal
lace is very proud of this fact and de-
clared to a representative of the Eagle
yesterday: Il want to tell you that we've

SEDCWICg COUNTY
TO HAVE EXHIBITS
Chamber of Commerce Select
Mr.. HeaIy to Appoint
COMMITTEE ON DETAILS
The Display Will Be Some
thing New and Original.

1t has been definitely decided in action
taken at meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce last evening that sedgwick
county shall have display at the world 5
fair in ST. Louis.
The matter was discussed considerably
and it was unanimously agreed by every
/ one present that the county seat must be
represented by an exhibit at the big fair.
Just what kind of an exhibit viii be ar
ranged has not been decided upon. Mr.
Healey with two others whom he will
/ appoint to act as a committee on the mat
/ ter in securing an appropriation for the
/ exhibit viii decide upon that part OF il
( later. Immediately upon the appointing
! OF two others to assist Mr.. Healey the
matter win be placed before the county
commissioners and the Commercial club
for the purpose of securing a sufficient
appropriation 10 make a fine exhibit. Mr.
Healey is in favor of preparing something
little out of the ordinary for an exhibit
and viii put a considerable amount of
tine in an endeavor TO make the display
something that wiz attract widespread
( interest The results Of the committees
work on the proposition will be given out
at the next meeting of the Chamber Of
Commerce.
The much talked of proposition to pipe
gas to this city occupied large portion of
the evening. bat resulted in no definite
action being taken by the members.
Nearly all were heard from on the sub
ject and each agreed that the idea was
worthy of ali the consideration possible,
but no one moved that anything decisive
be done in the matter At the close of an
hours discussion of the proposition the
situation remained exactly as at the start.
HIr. Smith, the secretary, called the at
tention of the members to a proposition
for the leasing of 900 acres of coal lands
wherever available. Nothing was done
with the proposition on account of Kos
Harris and Mr.. Foultz. each Of whom
made the statement that they thought it
highly improbable that there were l.00O
acres of paying coal lands in the country
that were not owned by a syndicate.
Others agreed with them and the matter
was dropped
Secretary Smith was given authority TO
act on his own responsibility in the mat
ter of getting out more circulars like
those printed some time ago for distribu-
ton over the country in letters sent out.
Three thousand of the pamphlets were is
sued some time ago. all of which have
been distributed and mary heard from.
The names Of the following persons
were submitted by Secretary Smith for
admission to membership in the Chamber
of Commerce: II. ]. Rotzel d. A. Nc

REMONsTRANCE
WILL BE ISSUED
Executive Committee of |. @.
@. F. Met Last Night.
CHARGE DISCRIMINATION
Rate to State EnCampment in
Wichita Too High.
CHARGE DISCRIMINATION

At a meeting Of the executive committee
of the L o. 0. F.. last night, it was de-
cided to make a fight on what the odd
Fellows term discrimination against them
by the railroads in not granting one-fare
rate TO the meeting of the grand lodge
the grand encampment and the Rebekah
assembly to be held in this city from
October Z to Is. They drew up a re
1nonstrance and copies viii be sent to ali
OF the division passenger agents on roads
operating IN Kansas, to the local agents
In this city and 10 Z. T. Macleod chair
man of the western passenger association.
Recently Macleod issued a notice that
the roads would make a rate Of fare
plus 30 cents for the round trip except
from such places as one fare plus a third
made less.
In their remonstrance last night the
Odd Fellows charge that this rate is
unfair, and that it is a discrimination.
They cite examples of fairs. reunions
and race meets where a one-fare rate
for the round trip has been granted this
year. They state that never before has
rate of more than one far for the round
trip been made by the roads to the state
eneampments.
About 1900 visitors usually attend the
state meeting OF the order and the add
tional 50 cents will amount to quite
little sum, and may result in the keeping
OF some people away from the grand
lodge. There viii be three meetings here
at the same time. The order has over GOO
lodges in the state, about $50 encamp
ments, and about 500 Rebekah lodges.
Each of these will send at least one dele
gate to the encampment and some of
them will send as many as three. This
will make the attendance so large that it
is set forth in the remonsUrance that a
better rate is deserved.
At the meeting last night several of the
plans for the state meeting were con
sidered. Arrangements have been made
TO hold the grand lodge in the audito-
rum, the grand encampment in the hail
on North Main street and the Rebekah
encampment in the Congregational
church.
The celebrated Far West degree staff
OF Kansas City. viii be here on Tuesday
night, and a large local class is to be
taken in. Out-of-town lodges have Deen
invited to send candidates to the encamp-
ment for initiation. The Kansas City

from Z TO IS years in age, all sons Of odd
Fellows. The team is neatly uniformed,
and well drilled, and is always a favorite

ments for the three meetings have al
most been completed, and the only thin5
