DOING LOTS OF WORK.
Santa Fe Working Large Gangs of
Men in Southern Kansas.

Superintendent Barnes went to Emporia
this morning, says the ChanUte Sun, to
meet General Manager Nudge and Gen
eraI superintendent Hurley, who are in
specting the road and are especially IN
terested in the work that is being done on
the roadbed of the Southern Kansas divis-
ion. The party came in over the branch
from Emporia which has been greatly
repaired within the past few months.
Several gangs of graders and trackmen
have been put on between Ottawa and
Cherryvale recently and it is rumored
that the officials are here for the purpose
of completing arrangements for rock bal
lasting the Southern Kansas The steam
shovel has been taken to Colony, where
the deep cuts are to be widened and the
dirt will be used on the fills. Work at
that point is being rushed at this time,
for within a few days rock ballast will
begin pouring in and place must be
ready for it. The cut north of the depot
here was widened until sufficient dirt
was taken for the fill at the Village Creek
bridge which has been raised three feet.
A gang of graders arrived yesterday af-
ternoon and set up camp near the south
brick plant. The roadbed will be widen ed
there and the crew Will then work south
toward CherryVale-

CONNECT WITH ORIENT.
Fort Smith & Western Will Build q
Line to Fairview, Okla.

Guthrie, April 1.-THE Fort Smith
& Western railroad is to be built west
to Fairview to make connection there
with the Orient. This fact was given
out here today by Judge Frank Dale,
a local stakeholder, when he filed a
mortgage for S7,5OO,OOO. This mort
gage is made in favor of the Mercan-
tile Trust company of New York.
1t has been given out that part of
the money thus secured will be used
to pay outstanding bonds; 100000
for new equipment, and a like amount
to build a spur from Fort Smith, Ark,
to Coal Creek, Ark, where the man
agement of the road has secured val
liable coal deposits.
The Fort Smith & Western is one
of the newest railroads in the south
west, having been completed from
Fort Smith, Ark, to Guthrie, o. T., a
distance of 216 miles, only a few
months ago 1t passes through a
number of fast growing towns in IN
dian Territory and Oklahoma. and has
done much to build up that section.
It connects with the Kansas City
Southern, Frisco, Santa F'e, Missouri
Pacific and the Katy and other SINH
lar lines. Its connection, therefore,
with the Orient Will mean much to
the latter road, as it will give it
a portion of the extensive coal and
timber shipping north and south from
the district through which the Fort
Smith & Western passes.

the choir were also located here
The arrival of Pope Plus was her

brown of the monks robes and the

figure Of the pope under the gorgeous
canopy, the picturesque fans and the
glittering helmets Of the guards, its
reception seemed cold after the frantic
applause permitted by Pope Leo. This,
however heightened the effect of the
choir. which greeted him with music
as he came in.

RESULT OF NATURAL LAW.
President SticIney Discusses Grain
Rate War in the West.


A. B. Stickney. president of the Chi
cago Great Western road, in speaking
of the western grain rate war, settle
ment of which now seems farther off
than ever, said:
There is practically no danger that
the grain rate war will spread to other
commodities. It would cost too much
money. Northwestern, Rock Island,
Burlington and other lines are now
paying a. heavy price for the privilege
of carrying grain. They will not pro-
coed to dissipate their revenues further
by paying for the privilege of carrying
other freight.
This controversy represents merely
the working out of a natural law. It
was not natural, for instance, that
Northwestern should carry grain from
a. Nebraska point 500 miles from Chi
cago at 25 cents per 100 pounds and
cago, 500 miles. Naturally, the rate
from Omaha should be five-ninths of
the rate from a point 900 miles away.
THAT is the basis on which Great
Western went to war Even allowing
for cheaper transportation west of the
river, the 21-cent rate was too high.
On our first reduction we put it u
cent above the true prOpOrtionate rate
"A rate slightly above the true pro-
portional, say, 1 cent above, would be
just and fair, and would serve all ends.
1t would not prevent Omaha from be-
ing a grain center, would not cut the
grain trade OF the long lines 10 pieces
and would not cause loss of revenue to
anyone.
1.-The real trouble is that in a war
like this the business gets established
on a lower general range of rates than
before. 1t will not be possible, in any
adjustment. to reestablish the old rates
right away. To do that would be to
create enmfty, raise public clamor-
and lose business. Consequently the
long lines will pay for their war for
some time to come. Not having any
grain worth while to handle, Great
Western will not lose much
Northwestern now says that the
real object of the rate war is the aboli-
ton of the old Bogue differential in
favor of St Louis as against Chicago
Originally the differential was cents
in favor of st. Louis, and this still
continues, though the rates have drop
ped so much that the differential is all
out of proportion
IF Northwestern can get that diff
ferential fixed it will help all the Chi
cago lines. but the St. Louis lines will
object. Anyway, it will take time"

NURSING MOTHERS

mothers. SCOTS Emulsion IS
the rich cream of cod liver

much cream as milk does.
The nursing mother must
eat with the purpose of pro-
ducing good. nourishing milk
for her baby. A little SCOTS
Emulsion is often very wise
addition to her daily diet. If
through nervousness or weak
ness her milk is a failure,
SCOTS Emulsion will help
make it a success.
