The Great Northern company
taxes the Vanderwarker people
ninety cents more y ton, There
is S1. 30 just for freight. Itcosts
fully a dollar a ton to mine the
coal and place it on the cars.
That places the coal at $3.50
per ton, before u cent profit can
be obtained. This does not al
low anything for the thousands
OF dollars OF capital that are
necessary for them in the mining
OF this coal.
The railway companies would

thereby obtaining long runs.
Just think of it. A coal dealerin
Duluth can ship coal to Devils
Lake Just at the same rate as is
charged the Nanderwarker peo-
pie from their mine to Devils
Lake. The rate is SO high that
the mine cannot ship below
Fessenden, to a profit. We take
this mine simply for all example.
We have no doubt that it is the
same with the other mines of the
state. What we would like to
see, and what will be necessary
before the industry is "a success,
is a lower freight rate. New rail
road commissioners will soon be
in power. Will they do anything
regarding theexorbitant charge?
It's up to them.

when the Republicans came into

in from united opposition, they at
tempted to disfranchiSe the voter if
fusion were again attempted by pass

the same name on more than one

not maintain two state tickets, yet we
can reach the same results and work

our action in so doing is not only
justified by the conditions but the eff

HIS AGE, EIGHTY-SIX.

Judge Samuel A. Kingman, one of
the most prominent of Kansas pio-

preme court of the state, died At his
home, 635 Monroe street, last night.
Judge Kingman was Sc yettrs Did
For many years his health has r cen
poor, but he had suffered no pro-
nounced illness recently and his
death was the result of old age He
was sitting in his chair whe1 the
members of his family noticed that he
was breathing with difficulty. In a
few moments he was dead.
Judge Kingman was one of the
most prominent men in the early days
of Kansas, both as a territory and a
state, and in the shaping of the des-
tiny of the state he took a prominent
part. Judge -Kingman came to Kan
sas in 1857.
Judge Kingman was a member of
the Wyandotte convention which for
mulated the constitution of the state
in 1859. He was elected associate JUS
tice of the supreme court and took his
seat when the state was admitted into
the union. He was defeated for re-

The Railroad Issue.

Candidates seldom make an issue.
Intolera BILE conditions usually present
one. And so this railroad issue that
has been raised in this state is brought
about through intolerable conditions
long existing. Complaints were made
by the farmer. the stock man, the
merchant, the miller. the grain buyer,
the wholesaler. the jobber and others
until these complaints became so nu-
merous that finally organizations were
effected by these different interests in
the different localities of this state, and
with the assistance of the press a
combination of these organizations was
effected under the name of Fedora
ton of Commercial interests" And
for months before any convention was
held. a crusade had been carried on
against unjust Determinations and ex-
tortions and for better railroad laws
This federation spent time and money
IN attempting through meetings with
the railroad officials to obtain redress
for the different interests and locali-
ties of this state and interstate rail-
road commissions, only to find their
grievances determined to be Just but
through lack of proper legislation the

the matters These conditions became
so cumbersome that relief was finally
sought through different political

the author of this issue In answer TO
that 1 desire to say that many months
the office of governor the press and the
people were clamoring for legislative

committees were appointed TO wait on

ers uncontrolled by railroad influences;
and the Republican state convention IN
March 8. of this year. held in this city
was appealed to by the federationests
for relief, and the character of that
convention and the answer to the ap-
peal of the commercial interests of this
state can be best described to you by
reading a couple of criticisms taken
from two of the most prominent Re-
publican dailies of this state, and I
