HAS VERY LITTLE COMPLAINT.
Wichita VIII BE Satisfied With Small
Coal Rate Reduction.

According to the Wichita Eagle, the
Windy City people are not very much
gaitated over the effort of the board
of railroad commissioners to reduce
coal rates. The Eagle says:
Wichita coal dealers are not inter-
ested to any great extent in the coal
rate cases now before the board of
railroad commissioners. When the
railroads a short time ago made their
voluntary cut on coal rates to this
city the rate on slack coal was fixed
at 81. This rate applies only to Pits
burg, as there is no slack coal from
Usage. The rate on lump coal from
Usage is S1.2O while the rate from
the Pittsburg coal fields is $3.50.
Local coal dealers are rather salts
fed with the present 81 rate and ad-
nit that a considerable cut on slack
coal would make it Improbable on the
part of the railroads to haul coal to
Wichita. 1t is. however contended
that a discrimination of so cents on
lump coal is little too high and
ought to be cut a trifie. Coal dealers
say that 25 cents in excess of the
slack coal rate is a sufficient margin
in favor of lump coal All efforts on
the part Of local dealers will be in the
direction of securing this 25 cents
difference instead of the SO cent one.
The rates as they stand at present on
lump coal are $50 on Pittsburg coal
and $1.20 on the Usage article

Secretary Of Agricultural Society sug-
gests Plan for Exposition.

Secretary Coburn, of the agricultural
department, has suggested a very hap
by plan to farther the interests of the
Seni-Centennialb by advertising through
the mail OF the department. The sug-
gestion which is embodied in a letter
to Iohn u. Frost, is as follows:
1.-THE state department of agriculture
is constantly sending out large Quanti-
ties of letter mail, not only to all parts
of the state but various parts of the
United States and foreign countries as
well. and I viii be glad to include in
such mail any cards, small circulars, OF
items of information, which the man
agement at its convenience wishes to
supply, and which are not of such
weight as to make necessary an in
crease OF the usual postage.
&'It viii be a pleasure to do this, and
4 think if each one of our business and
professional men, not only in Topeka
but elsewhere in the state as we'll
would DO the same during the years
of preparation it would so familfarize
the people and the country generally
with what you purpose doing as to as
sure their hearty interest, cooperation
and in g large degree their attendance
at the exposition.
SHOULD this idea meet with the ap-
probation Of yourself and your col
leagues the outgoing mail Of this office
will cheer4ully be at your service in
the way suggested -
