WORK BEING PUSHED.
Kansas City, Ozark & Southern to Run
October 4.

Mansfield, Mo-, July 25.-The Kan
sas City, OzarkA& Southern railway is
rushing work on its new line between
Mansfield and Ava, in Douglas county,
and it is fully expected that cars will
be operating over the road not later
than October first. Farmers along the
line are taking advantage of the OPP
portunity and are rushing ties, poles,
bridge timbers and other materials to
the road. sssalf esizsz
The result is that there is a great
deal of money being distributed
among the farmers, laboring men and
merchants. Several hundred men are
handling the pick and the shovel and
scores of teams are rapidly grading
the right of way. The ground has al
ready been broken over several miles
of the proposed road.
The building of this railroad will
open up about 1.400 square miles of
territory which is now without rail-
road transportation. About one mil
lion acres of fine farms and timber
land will be thrown open to settle
ment. There has been much prospect
ing for lead and zinc in different parts
of this territory, and 1t is well known
that there are great deposits of these
ores, but because of the difficulty of
getting the material to market, the
field has not been worked, as it would
otherwise have been.

WANTS COOPERATION
Appeals to Similar Bodies q
Kansas and Missouri.
Other Items Of Interest in
Railway Circles.

Members Of the corporation commits
sion Of the new state Of Oklahoma do
not seem to have abandoned the pro-
ject Of finding some way Of controlling
interstate rates SO far as they concern
traffic to and from Oklahoma points.
Chairman Love, at the direction OF the
whole body. has made another appeal
to the railroad commissions Of Mis-
souri, and Kansas to confer further on
the subject.
He suggests that they hold another
meeting at Springfield. Mo-, on some
date mutually convenient for the three
bodies. He wants 1t as early as posi-
bic, and suggests that some day dur
Ing the present month be selected. The
commissions Of Arkansas and Texas
already have signifled their adhesion
to the plan suggested and have prom
fsed to be represented at the confer
ence. 49,
1t is the programme Of the Oklahoma
commission to force the adoption OF
lower interstate rates, and it's plans
will be discussed at the conference. In
the meantime the attention Of the Ok
lahoma men is being directed to the
possibility that in thus trying to con-
troll interstate rates they are guilty OF
contempt of the federal law, and If it
is an infraction of the federal law pro-
hibiting any combination in restraint
VI tIdQe IOT the IOdQS " COUSplIC ~"
gether to advance rates, 1t is equally
an infraction of that law for the state
commissions to combine to lower them
In the meantime plans are being dis
cussed whereby the federal law may
be changed so that state commissions
virtually will have control of interstate
rates. One proposition is that the in
terstate commerce commission may be
made to consist of all the state COM
missions but this would make a body
almost as unwieldy as congress itself.
Another sug- estion is that on the re-
quest Of state commissions, the inter-
state commission may decree that in
terstate rates shall consist of the COM
bination of state rates.
1t is not believed that anything will
come of this attempt on the part OF
the Oklahoma commission to usurp
the powers of the interstate commerce
commission and virtually put that body
out of business. To the previous plead
ings of Oklahoma in the same direc-
ton Kansas and Nebraska turned a
deaf ear, and 1t is not believed that
Kansas and Missouri now will be any
more inclined to be- drawn into any
scheme the tendency of which Is to
cast reflections on the federal authori-
ties.
The whole thing is regarded as an
attempt to revive the old state rights
contentious and give these southwest
ern states a position of influence and
Importance which they could not in
any other way obtain
