KANSANS WELCOME TAFT.
President Receives Royal Reception
In Sunflower State.

INDEPENDENCE, Kan, Sept. 25-
President Taft received most friendly
greeting during his tour of southern
Kansas today. Both at Coffeyville,
where he spent two of the forenoon
hours at this place, Mr.. Taft was
greeted by great crowds, excursion
trains from outside communities help
ing to swell the throngs.
The president chose the vetoes of
the tariff bills for his theme today,
and received an attentive hearing. He
decl ared he did not come to Kansas to
apologize for having exercised execu.
tive disapproval of the woolen, the
free list and the cotton tariff bills, but
merely to explain to the people face to
face. Mr.. Taft said his vetoes were
the result of a deep seated conviction
that he had q duty to perform. He ex-
planned anew that the tariff board
should have an opportunity to report
before any of the schedules of the ex-
letting law are touched.
Mr.. Tafts day In Kansas begun pic
turesquely. At Coffeyville he was met
by an escort OF 200 horsemen, uniform.
ed alike in blue cambria shirts,
khaki trousers and peaked hats. They
were the representative business and
professional men of the city. The
president spoke at the plaza In Coffey'
Vile on the site of the bank that wat
held up by the noted Dalton brothers
many years ago. In the president:
escort was Jack Kloehr, determined
looking man with curly black hail
and q dropping black mustache. HI

roundup that followed their last es

DANVILLERR.
APPLYING FOR A CHARTER IN
VIRGINIA.

Application has been made to the
Virginia state corporation commission
for a charter for the new Durham and
Danville railroad to operate in vir-
ginia. the legal papers having been
forwarded yesterday to Richmond by
Attorneys W. T. Harris and Malcolm
X. Harris, counsel in Virginia for the
new road.
The Durham and Danville railway
was recently granted a charter In
North Carolina by the legislature, and
no trouble Is anticipated in the pro-
ceedings In Virginia. The Virginia
charter is to allow the railroad to ope-
rate from the North Carolina line to
Danville.
The directors named In the appli-
cation for charter include a number
of Durham capitalists and Malcolm X.
Harris, OF Danyille. Stock for the
new railroad, which will run between
Danville and Durham. going by the
way OF Yanceyyille, n. c., will be
placed on the market at an early date.
The charter allows the new line to be
operated by either steam or electric
power, though 1t Is nov thought that
steam power will be used.
The promoters Of the new line have
not yet made public their plans, but
have stated that they hope to have
the actual work OF construction begun
within twelve months.
A prominent real estate man Of
DanvilIe was in the city yesterday and
he assured the promoters that they
would receive hearty support Of theil
enterprise from the citizens of Dan.
Vile. A number Of rights Of wa,
along the proposed route Of the rcae
have been offered, and encouragement
has been offered from all sides.
4 Some definite announcement of thu
plans OF the company will doubtless
be made public within the next few
days.
