Senator Fulton's address, which ap-

Uttered.
Mr.. President, sat here the other
day and listened to a great speech by
a great senator on the other side Of the
chamber, a gentleman 10 whom ] al
ways listen with interest and usually
with profit, but on that day he gave
utterance to sentiment that I could
wish he had failed to utter. ! woul
not refer to II were 1t not for the fact
that have heard the same statement
made here and elsewhere a number Of
times. In referring to the present pres
ident and the probability OF his nom
ination TO the presidency this year he
spoke Of him as the man whom every
body IL for and whom nobody wants.
Does the senator mean to tell us that
all sincerity has gone out Of the land
and departed from the people? What
means this universal voice that is GO
ing up from the republican hosts all
over the land? DO they not mean what
they say, and do they not say what
they mean?
The other day away out on the shores
Of the Pacific sea in the state OF Ore
gon the legislature was called In ex-
traordinary session, and the very first
day they met, as II actuated by one
common impulse, the republican mem
bers Of both houses met in joint assem-
bly, and unanimously adopted reso-

that he be nominated to lead the re-

they said or that they did not say what

ABOLISH WICHITA DEPOT.
Rock Island May Send Its Business
into Frisco Station.

Wichita, Kan, May .S1.-Th ere is a
well defined rumor current in rail-
road circles to. the effect that the Rock
Island is soon to abolish it's passenger
station here and use that of the
Frisco. The change is said to be the
result of the visit by Rock Island Off
Gals paid Wichita about one month
ago. The most of the time spent here
by the officials was in an inspection of
both the Rock Island and Frisco sta
tons
When seen yesterday a prominent
Frisco official said, in regard to the
rumor: Il think it hardly probable
that such a change is contemplated.
OF course I know no more about the
matter than you do, except what I
have h eard. I have my opinion Of the
fact that the Frisco station, while ade-
quate to the needs of that company,
would be entirely too small for the use
of both
Rumor has it that the change will
be effective by July 1. Another thing
that sustains the report of such a con-
solidation is that the Rock Island and
| Frisco have had connecting tracks
built at both the north and south en-
! frances to the city.
