WINFIELD In LINE
Joins With v ichita in Secur-
ing Southeastern Road
WINFIELD HAS SURVEY
Two Committees Will Visit
St. Louis

Last night large number of interested
citizens met in the council chamber 10
listen to the report of the committee Of
five, consisting OF c. Il. smythe. J. H.
Stewart, c. L. Davidson, F. Wood and r.
L. Holmes, who were sent TO Winfield TO
confer with the citizens of that town in
regard 10 the proposed Southwestern
railway This meeting has been post
poned several times because Of the high
water and the public had become very
anxious to know what the committee had
accomplished.
The chairman of the committee stated
that they had conferred with the people
of Winfield and that that city was willing
10 put forth every effort 10 secure the
road. They also found that Winfield had
a complete survey of the road through the
Usage nation to Pawhuska and were will
ing TO act with Wichita under the pres
ent St Louis proposition providing few
changes We're made in the terms.
At the meeting last night Chairman c.
l.. Davidson was given authority TO ap-
point committee of three, himself as
one of the committee, TO 90 to St. Louis
in company with a similar committee
from Winfield for the purpose Of confer
ing with Major Wambaugh with view
OF interesting st. Louis capital in the
enterprise. If satisfactory arrangements
cannot be made with Major Wambaugh
the body was IL favor of enlsting some
other reliable men in the movement. Mr..
Davidson did not appoint the committee
last night and the date Of the trip was
not fixed, but ne stated that he would
do so in a very few days.
These present decided upon one thing
that Wichita must nave the road, and
the warm discussion of the enterprise
gradually led to the natural gas ques
ton. NJ y. McClelland stated that
natural gas would be worth more to this
city than two railways. with gas he
said lit would not be necessary for US
TO seek railroads. The greatly increased
tonnage which would result from good
flow of gas in this city would alone at
tract railroads. They would seek us. l
believe the only practicable way of bring
ing gas to Wichita is by piping it from
the nearest point The Caney oil fields
are less than - miles away and if the
enterprise would be taken hold Of in the
proper manner ! am confident that we
could soon have gas in ample quantity in
this city l move that a committee be
appointed to investigate the matter and
learn whether or not the plan is feas-
able"
Thereupon Chairman Davidson appoint
ed Mr. McClelland as Il committee of one
to investigate. to, correspond with the
proper parties and to report at the next
meeting upon the success of his work.
Every member present agreed with Mr..
McClelland when he stated that natural
gas would be the greatest beneht that
has ever befallen Wichita.

Mr.. A. K. McCOOK.
Democratic Candidate for State
Superintendent.

1t is with considerable pleasure that
the Tribune presents to its readers
this week, something of the personal
ity Of the democratic candidate on the
state ticket, for the Office of Superin-
intendent OF Public Instruction, Prof.
A. r. McCook of Elma.
A, r. McCook was born in Howard |
county twenty-seven years ago. At |
tended the Riceville schools, later
studied at the Minnesota high school
at LuVerne, Mimi, the Curtis Com
mercial College at Minneapolis and at
the Minnesota State University. He
has taught school much of the time
since he was Is years old and his work
has met with remarkable success. He
IL now at the head of the Elma schools
and is In high favor with his pupils
and the patrons of the school, SO much
80 that his wages have been increased
In order that his services might be
retained. He has been interested in
newspaper work and as lecturer he
has gained most creditable reputa-
tion, his lecture, Literature as an
Educator" being highly commended
by the press, pulpit and public. He i
has excellent executive ability and,
If he should be elected, he will bring
to the office the energy, determine.
tion and ability to set record mark |
for whoever may follow him in that
Office. His nomination for the Office
OF State Superintendent was mott
sought by him, and his school duties
prevent him from making an active
campaign, but that fact should not
and will not prevent him from receiv-
ing handsome endorsement at the
polls on election day.
We have the pleasure of knowing
A. B. McCook personally and do not
hesitate to say that there is not a |
young man in Iowa with better and
cleaner record as man; and that SO i
far as fitness is concerned few men
who have filled the Office of State
Superintendent were superior to him.
We hope that Chickasaw county will
roll up a good vote for our friend
McCook.-New Hampton Tribune.
