| ABOUT RAILROAD TRAVEL.
W.'ia' It 4 <>«t t« Carry S’aurngtm on
MVjtern Koatl*.
There lx a stu prising amount of mis
information among the people regard
ing the cost of carrying passengers on
inilroad trains ntid to this con
dition as a public mhid Is doubtless
due much of the sentiment in favoi
i of lower rate;, which is finding ex
pression through hill* for sweeping re
ductions In the legislature of many of
the western stales this winter.
Mr. J\ S. Kindis, General Passenger
Agent of the (’.. I!. & W- K. R., in argu
tuen; before the house committee of
tint Missouri legislature last week on
the two cent bill gave some valuable
and surprising Information about tbo
passenger business in the went. His
statements were based upon the re
port a of the Inter-state Commerce
Commission and the Railroad and
Warehouse Commission of Missouri
ami aie therefore beyond question.
Mr. Kustis showed in the first place
that the volume of passenger truffle on
railroads I - dependent upon the density
and wraith of population In the terri
tory through which It runs, ami then
compared the population of Missouri
and the traffle resulting from it with
*,|ie same figures iu other states, thus
cl.r.j/ Illustrating the theory of bis
point.
The following table showing the rel
ititi population and rate* I* Interest
ing in this connection:

Illinois . C8 2075.0U
Ohio . 00 1951.00
New York .I 4513.00
New Ragland .200 4422.01
Mr Kustis made the statement that
while the named rate in most of tho
western stales was three cents per
mil* the actual amount received i*
considerably less than that sum. d his
li due to the fact that the railroad bav
in;; a long line between two points
< arsuui 1 iiiiiK’ • **'
ilxed l.y a road having n shorter line,
unit to excursion rates demanded by
the people, hII of which reduce the
aver ay i rate materially.
Miii the most surprising assertion
mad • by Mr. Kiistl* was that the west
ern roads, with possibly one or two In
dividual exceptions, carry passenger.*
at an actual loss. The HI. Mulls,
Keokuk & Northwestern was cited as
an instance. Mr. fCustla produced a
statement of the exiiense on that road
to rhow that the cost per passenger
pe;- tulle < xteelled three cents, the legal
rr.t**.
The report of Ihe Inter-state- Com
merce Commission referring to the
railroads of Illinois. Iowa, Wisconsin,
Minnesota and that part of the !>a
kotu> and Missouri lying cast of the
Missouri ilver shows that it <-os: the
raili (*..ds two and three one-thousandths
rcnl> per tulle to carry passengers ex
clusive of any charge for taxes, rents,
interest on mortgages and other Items
nt the kind. Mr. Kustis declared that
a two '-ein flat late Ml Missouri would
1 educe the average to one and three
citiai-Uis cents If not. lower.
|i was shown that lower rates do not
largely irr-reuse trafflr and instances
-.ve-.e cited where reductions from four
cents and tliree and one-lmlf c-ents to
ihrcc- cenli per mile did not result in
iM ieuFid travel.
Answering the- cpieslion as to wheth
er or not rates In Europe were- not
low#-; than In this country, Mr. l-'nstls
-bowed that while the third class rate,
on some European lines Is lower, the
second class rates, which are paid by
the great traveling public, are higher
ibau American rates. The conveniences
of second and tlthd class travel In
Europe are not to he compared with
those of Ana lira la point of comfort
and convenience.
.Nlir Hr.i! II* i II
Among the e;icioug results of the re
cent battle of 'lie ballots one of the
most interesting from many points of
view Is the election of Vla'tie Hughe {
Cannon to the - vee senate of Utah by
an immense plurality ov •: her oppo
nent. Angus M. ■ -union who, alas for
the future peace mi -pilot of the Can
non household, is i!ic husband of the
seiistoress-elect. The advent of Mrs.
Cannon Into the Utah -Pate senate may.
however, exercise a per'irldi^g influ
ence over a wider circle than that
which circumscribes (lie domestic realm
of Mr. CaniPin.
The prospect of the election of wo
