railroad may be built out from Dodge
City in the near future. Secretary
Spencer Baird of the Commercial CLUB
has received a letter from Frank L.
Yantis, managing receiver of the Scott
CITY & Northern railroad, asking what

The next step will be the construc-
ton of a 25 mile line from Scott city
to this place, thereby connecting with
the Santa Fe main line, the D. c. & g
V. and the Rock Island. The proposed
line would give direct connection IN
two ways between the Santa Fe main
line and Great Bend-Scott City branch
and between a Rock Island branch
and two Rock Island through lines
and connect two Santa Fe branches,
the Santa Fe main line, a Rock Island
branch, two Rock Island through
lines and the main line of the Union

The Commercial club is disposed to
encourage the line and is arranging
for a meeting here with Mr.. Yantis

In half humorous vein, Mayor Ro1ph
made this afternoon the only state

"Where is Huerta. For some rea-

Visors divided on the question. the
problem of whether the veto will be
rejected or sustained is still unan-
swered. leaving the fate of the pro-

Mayor Rolph's veto of the opera
house ordinance has stirred up a boil
ing caldron of charges and counter

sonalities, sarcastic salIies and re-
examinations fill the air out of it
all stands the simple fact that no one
knows how the supervisors will vote,
and that on their action hangs the
solution of the problem.

vetoed the bill for the best interests
of the city, to prevent the establish
