SMALL But USEFUL.
Kansas & Southern Railroad Is Val
ued at $4,000.

Although the Kansas & Southern rail-
road had one representative in the leg
islature last winter-or rather one state
senator-it will probably not be accused
of using undue influence as a railroad
corporation on the legislature. In fact
the Kansas & Southern railroad is not
extensive enough to exert a very great
influence over anything.
According to its report as fled with
the state board of railroad assessors, it
has 8 1-3 miles of road, extending from
Blaine to Westmoreland, Pottawatomie
county. It is Senator Codding's line
The line proper is assessed at $4,000.
The road has three depots and one
engine room on its line, and they are
assessed a a total valuation of $3.50.
But it is in rolling stock that the
Kansas & Southern railroad comes to
the front. It has two locomotives. but
one of them is of such little value that
the owners did not place a valuation on
it, but the board assessed it at $500. The
other is. assessed at 81, 200. The line has
one Wagner coach, assessed at $1,000;
two box cars, assessed at $500; and
three fiat cars, also assessed at $780,
But while the Kansas & Southern line
is not very great and mighty, it is a
great convenience to the people Of
Westmoreland, the county seat of Pot
tawatonie county. 1t is the only rail-
road connection the town has with the
outside world.

San Bernardino Shops of Santa Fe
Doing Much Work.

Some time ago an article was pub
lished, says the San Bernardino sun,
showing that the Santa Fe shops in this
city were fast becoming the second
plant of importance on the system, To-
peka being the exception At the time
the article was scoffed at by the Albu-
querque and other railroad papers, but
the arguments in proof of the assertion
are becoming more numerous as days
go by.
One of the strongest points in favor of
the local shops was picked up by Il
man in his rounds yesterday. During
the present month no less than twenty
one coaches have been or will be over
hauled, repaired and seat out of the
local car shop. All are standard sized
cars. including one private coach, that
of superintendent ". B. Beamer, and
makes the record of almost one car a
day within the working month. During
the same length of time in the month
of March, the Topeka department turn
ed out twenty-eight coaches, but seven
in advance of the local shop. Certainly
the compa rison is fayOra BILE.
