The River and Harbors Chairman Impressed
With Captain Schultz's Recent Report.
Just to show the better feeling to
wards the Missouri river that exists
where such spirit counts, Captain E. II.
Schultz, who returned to Kansas City
Saturday morning from Washington,
said that Theodore Burton, chairman of
the House committee on rivers and
harbors, expressed to him a desire to
go down the Missouri river to see for
himself the condition of the stream.
Mr. Burton gave Lawrence M.
Jones and Representative Ellis to
understand he was very much impressed
with Captain Schulz's comprehensive
report. He intimated that there would
be generous treatment in the next river
and harbor bill for the Missouri. It is
probable that when the members of the
rivers and harbors committee make an
inspection trip down the river that Mr.
Burton will be one of the party. Re
presentative Ellis has strongly urged
him to make the trip, so says the Kan
sas City Star.
Captain Schulz went to Washington
to appear before the board of engineers
for rivers and harbors at the hearing
on his report.
Report Under Consideration.
"The board," he said, "has taken the
report under consideration and will
make its report upon it between now
and the opening of the next session of
Congress. As soon as the document is
printed it will be made public. Until
then I cannot give any particulars about
it. I believe, however, that the report
covers everything that can possibly be
said for the river."
After the engineer board shall have
finished with the report nothing else is
W. H. Stokes was a visitor in the
city this morning from Mynard.
Henry Hirz, jr., was a visitor in the

A. W. White was a visitor in Omaha

Knocks at the door of every one, and there is a tide in all our
lives, which taken leads to fortune. We have that opportunity
now in the shape of a horse ranch containing a full section and
an extra eighty, with thoroughtly first class improvements, a
modern dwelling, barns, granaries, other out buildings, well
fenced, all buildings nearly new, water piped into all barns, feed
lots, house and every field. This place, which is now being used
for the purpose of breeding horses and raising mules is paying
some $8,000.00 per year, and has improvements to the amount of
$6,000 and is being sold on" account of the death of the wife of the
owner. This will go at a figure which will make a good profit
and a good per cent income on the investment.

to be done officially until the river and
harbor committee takes up the appro
priation bill. Because of the late ad
journment of Congress and the national
conventions following shortly after
ward it is not probable that Represen
tative Ellis will be able to get the com
mittee together before September to
make the inspection trip on the river
from Kansas City to the mouth. At
that time the river will be in fine con
dition and enough steamboats will be
running to make a good showing of
business. It may be, also, that the
committee will take that opportunity
to give hearings along the way to all
persons interested in the improvement
of the river, instead of having them go
to Washington while the appropriation
bill is under consideration.
May Hold Hearings Along the River.
Those who are interested in the im
provement of the Missouri river would
like nothing l etter than to have Mr.
Burton make a trip on the river. He
probably knows more about rivers and
harbors in a general way than any man
in Congress. It was Mr. Burton, too,
who in 1892, becoming disgusted with
the action of Missouri valley congress
men in demanding always that appro
priations, made for river improvement
be spent in protecting somebody's
farm, "wiped the river off the map."
It was Mr. Burton, too, who, on the
representation made by Representative
Ellis and the promise of Lawrence M.
Jones that boats would be placed on the
river, consented to an appropriation of
$400,000 at the last session of Congress
to clear the snags from the channel.
And he promised, too, if there was a
revival of navigation he would help to
place the river back on the may.
