State Chpita1 Notes

The supreme court rendered a
number of opinions last Monday
which were complete set-backs for
the present democratic administra-
lion. 1t held:
First, that Sheridan S. Kendall
who was elected by the people. and
not F. S. Hoag. who was appointed
by Governor Shafroth. is the legal
railroad commissioner.
Second. that the Railroad Com
mission Law as passed by the re-
publioans in the Fifteenth General
Assembly was legal in every re-
spect and that under it the commits
son could make and enforce rates.
The democrats have since amended
the law and it will have to be
tested again. Had they left 1t
alone their commission could now
be performing some good work for
the state. This is the law which
Governor Shafroth often declared
was no good. The court now holds
that it was one of the best railroad
commission laws ever enacted in
any state in the union.
Third, that the law seeking to
give the state highway commission

announced here that the Wichita
Falls and Northwestern Railroad
which was acquired by the Haw-
ley-Trumbull interests several
months ago, is to be extended to
Denver. 1t is proposed to make
it one of the most important lines
of the NJ. X. & T. system. At the
time the road was acquired by its
present owners it had a length of
191 miles, exclusive of the Wichita
Falls and Southern division. which
runs south from this place to

is a well known fact that it was
jugged because of mixup be-
tween Governor Shafroth and the
opposition wing of his party. The
supporters of the law wanted the
court to hold that the third roll
call could be inserted in the rec

could insert roll call and declare

Very little information has been
divulged as to the ownership of

for contracting a low grade and
direct new line between Texas and

1t is expected that this road
will prove a good feeder for the

when the Panama canal is finish

project it is pointed out that the
route selected by the new line is
through a region now remote from
any railroad and undergoing won-
derful agricultural development
The Wichita Falls lines were
constructed largely by local capi-
tai. and they proved very profitable
to their owners. the principal one
of which was j. +. Kemp of this
city. The plans OF Mr. Kemp and
associates called for an extension
of the Wichita Falls and Southern
division from Newcastle south to

300 miles. Whether the latter
project will be carried out by Mr.

DENVER TO GET NEW RAILWAY
LINE TO GULF
Nj. X. & r. Extends Its Road F1pan
Wichita Falls, Texas; VIII Finn
ish 1t Before Panama tinal
Opens

The following with regard to the
Wichita Falls and Northwestern
Railroad now headed towards La
mar will be of interest to our
readers. 1t is taken from the daily
papers.
Denver is to have another di-
rect connection with Galveston and
ether gulf ports before the Pan
ANA canal is opened for transpor-
tation. incidentally the new line
will give the city direct connection
with the Missouri, Kansas and Tex
as railway system, operating more
than 5000 miles of track.
The new line to be built into
Denver is known as the Wichita
Falls & Southwestern. said to
have been acquired by the NJ. X.
& Il. within the past two months
This line now extends from Wichi-
ia Falls. Tex. to Leedy, in west
ern Oklahoma, and a large force
is at work extending the tracks
to Supply. near the Oklahoma-Kan-
sas line. 1t is semi-officially an
nounecd that construction will pro-
oeed rapidly to Denver, a distacne
of 400 miles. Construction work
has already begun north of Supply
and is being rapidly pushed.
The distance from Wichita Falls
to Leedy is III miles. At Wichita
Falls the road makes connection
with the main line of the NJ. X. &
T. When the line is completed a
new and direct low-grade route
will be provided betweeen this
city and Galveston. 1t is belicv-
cd the NJ. X. & T. wishes to get
the line completed before the OPEN
ing of the Panama canal.
Frank Trumbull, now chairman
of the board of the NJ, X. & T.,
was for many years president of
the Colorado & Southern before
II was purchased by James Hills
Burlington road. He is thorough
ly familiar with Denver's growing
Importance as a railroad center. He
was in Denver a month ago, and
his conversation with railroad men
indicated that he hoped to. get
connection for his system with Dem
yer i'm a short time.
The Wichita Falls & Northwest
ern was undertaken as an independ.
ent railroad. 1t began at Wichita
Falls. and the original builders
had Denver as their final goal to
the north. while the Wichita Falls
& Southwestern, backed by the
same interests, was pushed south

have to contend with only the
homemade sugar. They have no
other competition. The so-called
5 gar trust has supreme control
of prices except for the beet sug-
IF competition. {,
Congress can remove the duty
from sugar If it sees fit to do so, ;,
but it has no power whatever to-
make sugar any cheaper after the
duty is removed. There is nothing
IN the history of the sugar trade
during the last twenty years that
the refiners' combine will of its
own acr ord reduce the price of sug-
ar to consumers. 1t can and doubt
less will do SO for the brief time
necessary to drive the home sugar
out of business. 1t will have SUI
preme power to recuperate itself
over and over again.
''The senate will give the matter
serious consideration. 1t is less
and less disposed to make such
stupendous gift as S53 900. 900 an
nually to the small coterie of sug-
ar refineries, without any assur-
ance, in fact without any hope that
he consumer will reap any benefit
whatever in a transaction where
so large a sum of money and it.
is becoming more and more ap-
parent that the movement in fav-
or of free sugar is exclusively back
ed by the refiners. who are the
only ones who have any hope of
gain.
necessary to go into the discussion
of details because there is one
great question which must first
be solved. and unless 1t is, nothing
but waste OF time can be expect
ed. The leading facts<9s7khat the
country is collecting sugar duty an
nually to the amount of $53,0OO.-
900. which is used In running the
government. IF the duty is remov-
ed and that money is distributed
to the consumers in the same pro-
portion that ii is now paid by them.
that is one thing.
at would then be a question as
to what was best for the people at
large: but those who have studied
the subject know that reducing the
duty on sugar is equivalent to max
ing a gift of s53. 100000 a year to
six or seven men instead of making
sugar any cheaper to the consumer,
eventually causing the price to ad-
vance over and above the price 1t
would remove the only competition
mas been for some years past. 1t
now encountered by the sugar re-
finers' combine and put the busi
ness entirely in their hands. The
senate can remove the duty from
sugar If 1t pleases, but IL the duty
is taken off. all the power of con-
gress is not sufficient to insure a
single cent of the 100000 GO
ing back into the hands of the con-
sumner.
"As to the future, it Is very diff
ficuIt to predict with any hope OF
accuracy. As we are on the eve
of a presidential election. no one
can foretell what the political re-
suit may be, but it is safe to say
that If the democratic party wins.
it will as a matter of course, at
tempt to uphold the old doctrine
Of free trade. 1t is difficult to
imagine how that party could make
a more stupendous mistake"
Then the friends of the great
American industry must not stop
fighting. The refiners' combine is
in the hands of men who can COM
mand millions and also has the al
lied support of every free trader
and foe of home industry. Eternal
vigilance is necessary. Save our
sugar industry from ruin.-Nation-
