would prefer that the senator should
withdraw his question"
Elkins came back and Bristow re-
sumed his talk about the unfair rates
under which Kansas struggles. Elkins
asked questions until he got a state
ment from Bristow that he wanted to
protect the interior shipping points.
Flkins-NCw. the senator has ad-
mitted just what 1 say, if you pass this
law you will reduce rates all over the
country. The farmers of Kansas are
delighted to get their wheat and corn
to New York. But they complain of
the rates. Still they get a lower ex-
port rate than places near New York.
Demands the Facts.
st have a right to demand replied
Bristow, land 1 do demand that the
senator produce facts and figures to
back up his statement. Evidently the
senator has in mind the difference be-
tween export rates and domestic rates.
It is true that freight for export is
carried at less cost than freight for
domestic use; but in neither case does
Kansas receive any lower rate than
territory nearer New York, as the
senator has tried to say. My COM
pla int has been that the rates are high
est where the things we ship are pro-
duced.
1.-The rate from Wichita to Galveston
is five and one-half cents higher than
the rate from Kansas City to Calves
ton. But Kansas City is not benefited.
There is four times as much wheat
produced within fifty miles of Wichita
as within fifty miles of Kansas City
Wichita wheat does not go through
Kansas City but wheat from Kansas
CITY for Galveston goes through WiCh-
tia It is these Determinations that
complain about l have depressed, Mr..
President but I have felt that my state
should not be ridiculed by senators on
this floor bv representatives of states
that do not contribute one-third as
much to the wealth and progress of the
nation as Kansas.
Want Only Justice.
1--WE are not here asking that we be
permitted to prosper at the cost of any
other section of the country, but we
are demanding that rules of common
justice be applied to our section of the
country and our people Because our
state is prolific, because its fertility is
great, is no reason why we should suf-
fer Injustice so that other communities
can be built up. 1t comes in poor
grace for cities favorably located on
water to ask that we be not given just
treatment. 1t is to their advantage
YOU to refer to US in terms of oppro-
blum because we demand what we
know and you know is right
Elkins finally denied taht he had
told those who were not satisfied with
the rates their sections of the country
received to move out. He read from
| the record where he had said if they
| wanted the rates of Los Angeles or
| New York they ought to move to Los
Angeles or New York.
Doesn't that mean the same thing -
| Curtis demanded. How are they GO
| ing to move to these places except
move out of their home states?'
