DODGE CITY. KANSAS. THURSDAY. MAY q 1908
MADISON IS ACTIVE
Heading Movement to Push Passage Of One
Of the Measures Recommended by
Roosevelt.

The Washington correspondent of the
Kansas City Star wired his pap yester-
day that Judge Madison has become a
formidable leader In movement to force
the passage of one Of the measures urged
by President Roosevelt. Mr.. Madison is
the author Of an.injunction bill which has
been buried, but has not given up the
measure. Upon bearing an unofficial an
nouncement that no such legislation
would be considered al this session. Judge
Madison showed fight on the spot. The
Star report says:
ut was when confronted with this pos.
siblIty that Madison got busy. Too new
himself to take direct charge Of a legis-
lative maneuyer, be sought Townsend of
Michigan, great White House favori'e.
Townsend and Madison saw the Presi-
dent, and the executive gave them assur-
ance of cooperation. Today Judge
Madison is drumming up votes for
party conference to consider a similar bill
prepared by Townsend. This bill will
provide that hearing on a restraining
order must be given within five days and
a decision handed In not longer than two
dave later.
Judges are wont to issue Temporary
restraining orders and then 90 fishing or
to the mountains for the summer or do
other things which many citizens besides
labor leaders complain of.
CAT ! O'Clock this afternoon there hal
been forty. five signatures to the demund
for a confere nee, Only five more are
needed in order to assure the call.
A latter report from Washington
states that the necessary number of sign
ers to the petition to call caucus of the
Republican members was secured ami
the matter of drafting bill to be con-
sidered was left to Congressman Madison
and Hubbard.

Morgan Department Commander.

At the State Eucampment Of the G. A i.
r. yesterday, W, A. Morgan Of Cotton
wood Falls was elected Department Com
mander. Mr.. Morgan was the candidate
favored here and at other points. In Wes-
tern Kansas. but the east end fellows-who
favored B. r. Boyle had the advantage of
having the encampent at tnelr end OF the
state. That made 1t easy for them to get
their delegates there, aud hard for the
Spther side to get good representation, on
account OF the great distance. There
was some hard work done by both sides
and when the ballot was taken, Morgan
got 3il votes and Boyle 3O4.

THE LA JuNTA MEETING.
There Was a Wonderful Enthusiasm over
the Project Of Furnishing Electric Power
For the Arkansas Valley.

I The meeting held at La Jlinta last
Thursday as conference of the people
10 the Arkansas valley to decide upon
steps for putting through the Huit
project, was an altogether wanderful
meeting. There was a great body of
people present, every one apparently
having the same enthusiasm and con-
fidence In the project. Every nsn there
appeared to be thoroughly convinced
that electric power can be furnished for
the entire Arkansas valley as far east as
Dodge City, bya great liant at Canon
City and that 1t can be furnished cheap
enough to make the plan practical.
Everybody seems to hold the same
opinion, that the establishment Of this
power line, and the building Of an
electric railway, will double the value of
the Arkansas Valley several times.
Careful business men who attended the
meeting, ranchmen and factory people all
seemed to look the matter In the same
light, and at the meeting the sentiment
was strong that the thing can be done
and must be done.
An organization was effected to 90
about the work In an orderly manner,
and the organization takes In all the
territory covered ty thu original project.
Mr.. Russell was named asa director
from this county. The project is great
one, and OF Course an expensive one, and
one of the first steps will be preliminary
survey which is to be made by the
Electrical company which Mr.. Hulet
represents and checked up by the
organization Of the valley.
Meetings will be arranged in the
different localities to explain and con-
slider the matter as 1t progresses.
Dodge City was represented at the
La Junta meeting by W. W. Watson,
.. F. Milton, J. H. Hilyer and John
Sughrue.

floor will be elegantly furnished. The
carpet for this room was taken up Tues.
day, the largest aud most expensive car
pet that ever came to Dodge City, large

yard. Ii was sewed 10 Kansas City by
measurement, so that 1t was ready to
be placed on the floor. covering the en-
tire lodge room and rostrum. The third
floor Is certainly an ideal home for
the Masons. with its large lodge room,
and all of the additional rooms and con-
veniences that could be desired. especial

time In inspecting the third floor, you

1t. There is stairway leading to the
third floor at the south side Of the build
.,ipg, and upon the fourth floor is a large
banquet room, where feasts may be
spread, or where good sized dancing
party might be held. And all Of this is
above the first two stories, which are an
important addition to tho business por-
tiou of the town.
The second floor is taken up with
neat lodge room IN which number of
the different fraternal lodges will hold
their meetings, and different suites Of Of
fee rooms. The large corner room and
two others leading westward from 1t will

NO GRAIN OR FLAT CARS.
Northern Pacific Finds Open Ship
mcnts Too Expensive for
Wheat Shipments.

The Northern Pacific railway is
about to issue an order against ship
ping grain on flat cars and gondolas
according to reports received here.
The last two seasons cars have been
short and the shipping of wheat on
flat cars and in other styles not in
tended for anything as perishable
and as movable as wheat has been
resorted to, says a Walla Walla dis
patch.
Shippers refused to receive flats
for shipping purposes unless the
railway company agreed to stand the
loss, If any occurred in transit. In
some cases 1t is said that as many
as 90 sacks were short when the in
spector checked up the car at Ia
coma. Few cars, 1t is said, were re-
ceived as full, and frequently from
$25 to $50 had to be paid the ship
per for grain lost in transit This
loss by the railroad company was
borne long time, but it is now pro-
posed to put a stop to 1t.
About three weeks ago a Northern
Pacific detective arrived here and
began a quiet investigation of condi-
tions in the grain shipping business.
1t is said that he found where cars
had been loaded short.

WOMEN FORM PARK CLUB.
One Thousand Walla Walla Women
Are Organizing.

A thousand women it is hoped will
become members of the Women's
Park club which will hold an i'm
portant meeting in the Y. NJ. c. A,
building at 2:30 o'clock this after
noon, says the Walla Walla Union.
Not only will this organization have
an immediate interest in the making
of city parks but its civic activities
will be extended to other undertake
ings.
Should the expectations of the
present members be realized the Park
club will become a distinct power in
the community. The proposition
calling the organization into exist
ence is to the building of municip-
al recreation ground in accordance
with the plans of the park commits
sion. once this work is accom-
plished, however, the members will
not be satisfied, it is believed, until
they have given their aid and en-
dorsement to other undertakings.
"If such club Is formed as is
planned, and there is every reason to
believe tnat it will be-" said John W.
Langdon, chairman of the park COM
mission, 'It will be able to accom-
plish almost anything in the city that
1t sets out to do. For a thousand
women united in a single purpose
have a power that is practically in
vincible."
No dues or initiation fees will be
required of those who join the or
ganization.

BERKLEY'S HORSE BALKY.
Experience of Mining Man With
Horse that Got Tired.

n. Berkley, manager of the Buff
falo mine in the Granite district, is
in the city today. He stated that
there was nothing eventful happen
ing in that section to his knowledge,
but also said that he considered him
self very fortunate to be able to be
in Baker City today with no bones
broken, says the Herald. A day or
so ago Cato Johns and Mr.. Berkley
left Sumpter for the Granite country
driving team, one of which was
noted for being balky.
When they had reached a summit
of a hill the horse baked. Not hav-
ing any sand handy to put in the ami
mails ear Cato arose in the wagon
and proceeded 70 apply the lash
with a startling result. The horse
soon gave a lunge and upset the
wagon so that both occupants fell
on their heads in the snow. It hap
pened that the snow was deep
enough to act as a cushion and
saved them serious injury, although
there is more or less stiffness in
their bones at the present time.
