8 THE KANSAS CITY TIMES. SUNDAY. NOVEMBER 29, 1891. THEY WANT BETTER RATES. LOWER FARES TO THE RIVERS IMPROVEMENT CONVENTION DEMANDED.

The Transmissouri Association Accused. of Acting Illiberally In Catting the Hates for the Big Convention to Held in Kansas Oity Next Month- Many Delegates to Be Present A Letter From Senator Vest. It is just sixteen more days until the meeting of the Missouri and Mississippi rivers improvement convention in this city. The near approach of the important movement is causing many favorable communications regarding it to flow into Secretary Miller's office dally. They from the north, the east, the west and the south, The past week many were received from prominent men of New Orleans, Natchez, Greenville, Vicksburg and Helena.

River navigation enthusiasts of the south will be at the convention in great numbers but the larges delegations are expected from Missouri and Kansas. The railroads in the transmissouri association have made a rate of one and one-third fare on the certificate plan for the round trip to those who desire to attend the convention, but this rate does not include the state of Nebraska. The Kansas City, Fort Scott and Memphis, Missouri, Kansas and Texas, and the Kansas City, Oceola and Southern roads have made a concession of one fare for the round trip to 'all points within 200 miles of Kansas City. In speaking of the action of the railroads on the rate question yesterday, Secretary Miller said to a TIMES reporter: "The roads centering at Kansas City, except the Kansas City, Fort Scott and Memphis, the Missouri, Kansas and Texas, and the Kan889 City, Oceola and Southern, have been very close in the matter of rates for the The transmissouri association makes a rate of one and one-third fare for the round trip on the certificate plan, certificates to be signed by A. J.

Vanlandingham in order to enable delegates to obtain full benefit. Under these regulations such delegates as we may not be able to advise are liable to be compelled to pay, full fare both ways. For a gathering as large as this convention promises to be it 18 illiberal on the part of the railroads not to make a rate of one fare for the round trip and abolish the certificate plan. most unsatisfactory feature of the action of the transmissouri association is that or leaving out the territory of Nebraska. Already large delegations have been appointed in Nebraska with the expectation that some concession in rates would be made.

It is incomprehensible why no concession was made. We have asked the transportation committee to take up the matter again with the association and ask them for a more acceptable concession which, in view of that made by the roads referred to, we think they ought to make. They should also include Nebraska." A strong letter received yesterday from Senator George G. Vest, from which the following extracts are taken: "The great agricultural states of the Missouri and Mississippi valleys are vitally interested in easy and cheap transportation, aud every step in that direction is toward better returns for their produce. The Missouri and Mississippi rivers are natural competing highways with the railroads, and constitute the only real check upon exorbitant and oppressive charges by rallroad corporations.

It is mere waste of words elaborate these statements. "Until the people of the Mississippi and Missouri valleys can command the votes in congress to enact legislation, separate and apart from the river and harbor bills, for appropriations large enough to systematically improve the Mississippi and Missouri rivers (really one river) in accordance with the recommendations the commis. sions having these rivers in charge, conventions, orations and resolutions will amount to nothing. If the convention you pose holding can create a public sentiment which will elect a congress that will vote for separate bills of appropriations for improving the Mississippi and Missouri rivers, the money to be expended for general and systematic improvement, 1t will have done a great work. recommendations of the river commissions created to have charge of these rivers should not be overridden by the demands of localities, or the exigences of political ambition.

The recommendations of the commissions should be adopted or the commissions abolished. In twelve years' service upon the commerce committee of the senate I have persistently advocated these views and If able to be present will repeat them to the couvention. Whenever, in my Judgment, the people of the great states directly interested shall make an imperative demand upon polltical parties and upon every senator and representative in congress for the legislation suggested, the proper improvement of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers will be secured and not before. Until this is done, the two great rivers of the continent will be subordinated in river and harbor bills to the unworthy purpose of being used to secure appropriations for creeks and inlets unknown to commerce and useful only in a congressional canvass. result of this abuse must always be that the appropriations for these great rivers, to which no objection can be made, are minimized so as to be utterly inadequate, for fear of making the 8g- gregate amount in the bill too large for party purposes.

In other words, the apuropriations for creeks called rivers and inlets called harbors are carried through congress at the expense of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. I emphasize, therefore, the statement that until enough votes can de bad in congress to divorce the appropriations for the Mississippi and Missouri rivers from the river and harbor biils and to place money appropriated under the control and discretion of the commissions having these rivers charge, the permanent improvement of navigation must not be expected." Senator of North Dakota writes that he is in hearly sympathy with the movement and will be glad to extend any aid in his power. A letter from George Leis, who owns large, manufacturing interests at Lawrence, strongly indorses the the convention. The following delegates were reported yesterday: Denver, George 8. Van Law, Earl B.

Coe, B. L. Olds, H. W. Bennett and W.

S. Allen: Topeka, Samuel T. Howe, P. I. Bonebrake, L.

H. Pounds, J. R. Mulvane, C. 8.

Elliott, S. H. Downs, Del Keizer, Mayor R. L. Cofran and James Troutman.

Colonel G. O. Broadhead of the Missour river commission writes that he will be at the convention, A CARD OF THANKS To the W. F. Whiting Company, Tallora.

In thanking you for the seasonable present of a Thanksgiving turkey to each married man and box of cigars to unmarried employes, numbering In all twenty-five, we, as union men, admire and reciprocate the kind sentiments expressed in letter accompanying same; and for your just recognition of our union to confer with you in all matters pertaining to the advancement of our trade, or which to the may settlement possibly of arise any regarding possible it. difterSuch kindly feeling does not and cannot exist in the "scab" firms of our city, where cheap labor prevails and the consequent degradation of workmen. We will endeavor to excel ourselves in the excellency of our workmanship, thereby contributing to the further success of the and to the adornment and pleasure of its patrons. W. D.

FOWLER, ERNEST ZIMNER, Committee. PLUMB WILL GO IT ALONE. Chief Justice Horton Talks About Kansas Politics and Crops. Chief Justice Albert H. Horton of the supreme court of Kansas came to Kansas City last evening from Topeka and will return home this evening.

He is at the Centropolis. "There is nothing in the story that an assistant to Senator Plumb is to be chosen on the ground that Peffer can not help him," said Judge Horton last night, and he laughed heartily at the joke, "While Peffer can in no way aid Plumb to properly represent Kansas, the fact is that Plumb can get along without an assistant. The republicans, at least, are satisfied that he can represent the state in the halls of congress efficiently and ably. He is worth two or three ordinary United States senators in Washington or anywhere else. He is the best senator Kansas ever had.

"The crops in Kansas are good and the farmers are happy," continued the judge. "The alliance la going to pieces and will not be a factor in the politics of the state in the future. About the governorship? Well, now, I can't talk politics on account of my judicial position. It would not be right for me co do so or to engage in politics at all." Judge Horton said that the supreme court of Kansas is a year and six months behind in its work. The court is composed of three judges who are aided by three commissioners.

Protests From the Farmers' Alliance and Others Against the County Court's Cut. The people of Independence are indignant about the recent action of the county court in cutting the price for feeding county prisoners down to 20 cents per day. half dozen petitions strongly protesting against the cut are now in the hands of energetic business men and farmers and are receiving a great many signatures. The sentiment is emphatically against the action of the court. The farmers' alliance held a meeting at Independer.ce last night at which this matter was discussed.

One member made a red hot speech in which he declared it was impossible to feed a working man for 20 cents a day and that every member of the branch of the alliance of which he was a member would sign a petition protesting against it. These petitions will be presented to the county court, and it possible that body will be induced to reconsider its action. IN NEW QUARTERS Mr. F.

Special to the Kansas City BALDWIN CITY, Nov, foot ball game between the Kansas state university team and the Baker university eleven that had been so eagerly looked forward to by both colleges was played this afternoon and resulted in a decided victory for the K. U. boys by the score of 18 to 4 after the hardest game played this season. The rivalry in athletics between the institutons has always been Intense.

Fully 2,000 people braved the biting cold to witness it. A special train was heavily loaded with Kansas university stddents and backers, and a large number drove down, among them being two Tallyho parties bedecked with the crimson. The game was called at 2:30 o'clock with Bloss and Starrs of Washburn college for referee and umpire respectively. Barker won the choice of goals and selected the west one as favored by the wind. The Kansas university team took the ball and rushed the playing from the start.

After two gains in the center Champlin made a splendin run almost to the Baker goal, and in a few moments a touchdown was made and Hogg kicked a goal, Then Barker took the ball and by some splendid work by Light and Goodale gained half the distance to the Kansas university goal, when Sherman carried the ball far down toward the Baker goal line and soon the ball was across the Baker goal line. Hogg kicked another goal, making the score 12 to 0. By this time Baker had begun to grow desperate and pushed the battle Into the K. U. territory.

Light and Rice made some pretty side plays, but Champlin and Frederick were always on hand and carried the ball back to the center. After some lively playing in the center the first half ended with the score 12 to 0 in favor of the university. In the second half the Baker teams rushed the playing from the start but the K. U. got the ball on four downs and Hogg punted it aoross the fleld again.

Baker worked it back and again Hogg punted it nearly to the Baker goal Jine. Goodale attempted to returd Hogg's punt but ewett stopped the ball and as it rolled across the Baker goal line Dobson fell on it and another touchdown was scored, while Hogg kicked his third goal and the score was made 18 to 0 in favor of the Kansas University. Baker then began playing desperately but failed to break the rush line of K. U. held by Coleman, Finally Goodale made a splendid run for Baker and with persistent bucking of the center the ball was carried across the line and Baker scored a touchdown but Goodale falled to kick a goal, After a few more scrimmages the game was called with the score 18 104 CORNELL WINS A FINE GAME.

Michigan University's Foot Ball Team Defeated 1 in a Hot Contest. CHICAGO, Nov. defeated Michigan university today by a score of 10 to 0 in one of the prettiest foot ball games ever seen in the west. The field was covered with six inches of snow and frosted feet and hanas were numerous among the thousands that gathered at the South side ball grounds. Michigan won the toss and took the ball, Cornell taking the north goal, The lining up was this: Cornell, Positions.

and only one man left the field. Powers had an attack of vomiting just before the game began and in the concluding part of the last half he had to retire, LePond taking his place. Both teams played a rush game, kicking being out of the question, Three minutes after the game began the ball was covered with ice. The magnificent runs of Withebee, the snow plow rushes of Osgood, Floyd's excellent tackling and interfering, Vanwagon's Rittenger's and Digert's runs and tackling and the interference of Tupper were all features. Michigan opened the game with 8 furious rushIng wedge which carried the Cornell men off their feet.

Withebee soon made the drst of his runs, going through the Ann Arbor center, though carTying the team on his back. After fiercely vary1ng fortunes Floy got the ball in a scrimmage and touched down ten minutes after the game began. Bacon kicked a goal. This ended the scoring for the half. 00sgood opened the second half with a fine run for twenty yards and Withebee immediately duplicated it, going around the end.

It was nip and tuck till a wedge gave Osgood an opporportunity, for Michigan a touch 0.
