Washinotos , Fob 11. Postmaster Oon-
ornl Wanamakor , before the house commlt-
tee on postonlcos and jwstroads today , dls-
cussed fnlly the propositlotf in bis annual report -
port for the establishment by the govern
ment of a Utnitod postal telegraph He sub
mitted a plan providing for the leuso by tbo
government for ten years of wires for carry
ing on the business and for the delivery of
telegrams by carriers in the llrst delivery
following the receipt of the telegram Tbo
scheme , ho insisted , was practical und frco
from objections ,
Wanamaker proposes a union of the post
and tolcgraph on a basis that would not in-
torfcro to nny appreciable extent with unv
existing rights , but offer incalculable sor7lco
to certain classes not now enjoying vho use
of the tolcgruph to any large degree Ho
usked that ho bo directed to noun
tiato and secure leased wires such as
the great nowtpapers have from city
to city or brokers and bankers
buvo connecting tholr offices nnd
different cities , that the public might com
municate through their business otllces
( bostoflicos ) from city to city , or by mes
sages dropped in their mull boxes The
pcoplo had now , ho continued , In tholr busi
ness otllces clerks who could soon learn the
trick of the mnchlno , carriers who traveled
over the saino streets traversed by the tote
graph boys , and stamps for payment that
dispenses with bookkaeplng , and all that
was needed to build up the Bcrvico
was the authority and wire Ho
declared emphatically that such a scrvico
was tbo legitimate work of the postoulco and
, the peoplo.woro right in stoutly demanding
tolcgraph facilities at postal stations Wana
maker then stated the provisions of the bill
Nothing in the net shall bo so construed as
to prohibit any telegraph company from per
forming general business for the public , as
the same is now done Postal telegraph
charges In any one stuto shall not exceed 10
cents for messages or twenty words
or loss , counting the address and signatures ; "
nor over S.1 cents for any distance under
1.G00 miles , nor over 50 cents for nuy gronter
dlstuuco , the rates nud rules aud regulations
to be pi escribed by the postmaster general
'J ho bill also provides for the establishment
or u system of nostal tologrnnh money or

to present the memorial to the bureau and
two or thrco of the best talkers were selected
to malto tbo necessary arguments in be
half ot the domauds After this the delega
tion gave Its attention to the compilation nnd
publication of abook lor free distribution
Tlio delegates ot the Immigration bureau
and the members of the trans-Missouri asso
ciation met at the board of trudo rooms at U
o'clock in the afternoon
Chairman Buck of Winflcld , president of
tbo Kansas Immigration buronu , presided ,
and Halo Cowley outdated as secretary
ISecretary I Nupoii of the board ot trndo
welcomed tbo visitors on behalf of tbo
Omaha board ot trndo He apologized for
not giving the visitors n reception , and ten
dered the f roedom of the board of trade build
ing Ho also congratulated them on their
push and energy and predicted success
Air Hosowatcr wus introduced and ad
dressed the assembly , saying that Kansas
had increased more in population than Ne
braska had , which was duo perhaps , to tbo fact
that Nebraska is a little farther north , but
there Is no reason why the two states should
not work together hnnd In hnna Ho as
sured the moctinc that ho would do all in
his power to further the interests of both
states . Mr Hosewutcr called the attention
of his hearers to the bills which are now
pending in both houses ot congress , which
if passed , will very materially restrict foreign -
oign Immigration If these acts become
operative it will result in preventing the
immigration of the eastern pcoplo to the west ,
us there Uflll be no ono to take tholr places
Mr Hosowater expressed the idea that the
bills referred to are only cxoedicnts to in -
crease the fees of American consuls abroad
by placing a premium on their approval of
an itnni'grant's ' character Ilo announced
his intention of going to Washington soon
aud said ho Intended doing all bo could be
fore the congressional commintees to prevent -
vent the passage of these bills He snip ;
furlbec that the only way to All up the west
is to have foreig uimmigrnnts who will lake
the place of the oasturn pcoplo who are
wanted in the west
Chairman E. M. Buck returned thanks to
the citizens for the treatment the visitors
had received He said tbey had been treated
ns well and as of tea as a Kansas man dared
participate He also expressed their de
light nnd astonishment at what they hud
Been , nnd said that us their time was limllod
they Would ut once proceed to business Tbo
secretary wus dlicctcd to read u memorial
which had been prepared
Socretarv Cowley then proceeded to read
the memorial , which was addressed to the
passenger association
The memorial llrst rcvlowed the wealth
natural xesourcea , agricultural greatness und
religious and commercial supremacy of the
Btato , and the things which buvo brought
this state of uffalra about ,
Tno memorial then continued as follows :
Gentlemen : The Kansas immigration bu
reau is an organization formed by citizens of
tbo Btate Already ninety-one counties have
formed auxiliary societies und uro working
in harmony with und under the direction ot
the state board ot directors of Immigration
The object of this organization , as its name
implies.is to secure an influx of population
and capital to the Etato ot Kansas To be
able to-accOmpllsh the objects of this move
ment , n greater part of the lust half year
has been devoted , by leading men in Kansas ,
to perfecting the organization
In onler to accomplish our purpose it will
be necessary to thoroughly advurtiso the at
tractions of our statu ns to climate , soil and
situation , so us to induce homo seekers to
come aud buy our farms und cultivate thorn ,
to ihuuce capitalists to onen our mines , to
build factories , to maintain commerce , ana ,
in goncral , to advance the material und social
interests of the state
It is also tbo piirnoso of tbis organisation
to so unify the efforts put forth by the different
forent localities that they sbull not antago
nize each otheV , and then soond money with
out profit to nny , butruther to stimulate
cuch county to do all it is nblo for Itself to
promotb lbo influx of capital und population
Thus the whole country may bo informed as
to thp resources and utlractioas of our great
state in all its parts
Kansas is todav blessed with a crop , the
extent and magmtlcenco of which we our
selves contemplate with doubt ufter the
most positive proof of its existence , end
which , If wo are helped by you to show to
the bard worked and poorly paid farmer of
the cast , will be an ovldonce so overwhelm
ing to them that wo shall more tbun realize
our most snnguino hopes Tills dolecatlon
which represents tlio whole state of Kansas
asks of you aid in the following things :
1. To help thoroughly advertise the state
by printed matter , well prepared , and sent
broadcast over the whole country and even
into foreign lands
S. In securing the cooperation of news
papers , both insldo nod outside of the state ,
so that our people may know what we have
to offer to home seekers and capitalists
a. In sending agents whoso business it
shall bo to go every where to personally in
duce the influx of population and capital
4 , In securing for this movement an explorers
plorer's ticket at one fare for the round
trip
r > . Wo ask for a half-faro ticket fur the
immigrant und his family
0. Wo ask also lor reduced freight rates
for the Immigrants ' household and moveable
goods
The newspapers of the state are earnest in
their advocacy of this work , and the faim
ers , merchants , bankers and politicians are
ail doing wnat they can in tbo same direc
tion
Philanthropists see in it that which will beef
of advantage to thousands of people now
continod in too narrow limits in the east , but
by the success nf tbis movement will be
placed in bettor circumstances
Tbis , gentlemen , is the supreme hour nnd
happy opportunity for Kansas to forge to the
front una place bomolf in the first rank of
all the great agricultural commonwealths ;
nnd we would urge that this as oclution
move la hurniony of notion aud oonoord of
purpose This Is the request or every citi
zen of Kunsas that tbo fruits of Oils move
ment may be a doubling of her population ,
und the beuoilU as lasting as her name , nod
the propigators and cooperators la this
measure will receive tbo benefits , blnssings
aud protection of every loyal citizen of Kan-
ess
ess.Mr. . George Smith of Finney county then
addressed the meeting , giving an idea of the
uhmute and soil of Kansas , and suid that
they bad asked the rutlroad cotupaulos to
give them a reduced rate on passenger
trnflle , which would cuublo people to como
there und see the country and select homes
for themselves He said thut the delegation
was npt composed or real estnto men nud ,
Kunsas boomers , but was composed ot man
who | md boon selected by the vunous county
boards to como to this place In a body aad
present the matter to thj attention of the
tratuc association , The speaker Bald that
the granting of the request of the delegation
for a special rate would react In the interest
of tbo railroad companies , and be asked that
excursion rates be granted to all points in
the atate
Mr Smith was followed by Mr Kos
Harris of Sedgwick county , wbo outlined
the origin ot this movement , which was be
gun because the people ot the stale
realized Ibat the state was not re
ceiving ; u uropvr share of the Immigration
and was gradually becoming stagnuled , und
they realized also that some ( xmtlvo action
I wns tiocessnry They bad therefore como
hero to nslc for concessions from tha
railroads , and would mnko Kansas ono great
immigration buronu which would result lu
tilling up tha state nnd tncrenso ( ho business
of the rallroitds
Ho snld further that iho pcoplo of Knnsns
had como to nppreclato the fact that they
must got lo work or they would sulTor when
brought Into competition with otbor states ;
they therefore nsk the railroads to isstin explorers
plorers' tickets , which will nllow pcoplo to
go back and forth and see the country , nun
nlso to mnko spocinl rates on household
goods
Colonel Poarsall ot Fort Scott addrcssod
the meeting in a quiet , unassuming way ,
which was doubly luiprcssivo Ho review od
the situation in ivnnsos aud asked the mum
bora ot lbo ussociatlon If they would provide
frco transportation for necnts which iho
atato would send out to travel through the
oust to advcrtlso tha state of Kansas and In
duce pcoplo to locate on their farms aud in
their cities
Chairman Finloy of tbo trafllo association
then made a few remarks iu reply to the
gontlcmeii or the association Ho said the
association realized the fact Unit lbo devel
opment of the status In which the road runs
means also thn development of tbo roads ,
but that tha Jurisdiction of the association
only extended to the custom boundary of
Kansas Ho assured them , however , that
tha ussociatlon would do nil in its power
with tbs eastern roads , lu reply to n ques
tion ho said that tbo nssoclation would com
muulcato with the delegation at the earliest
possible moment
The mumbors of the trafllo association
then withdrew and the Kunsns delegation
proceeded to business
The sreratnry was Instructed to have
2,000,000 copies ot n book printed as an ad
vertising medium , the book to coutnlti
twonty-llvo pages ot stuto mutter nud ono
pngo devoted to each county , urraneed lu al
phabetic order and printed in minion typo ,
nil cony to bo hnndod in by the 25th inst It
was further decided thnt noadvortlsing mut
ter bo allowed in the book
The sccrotury reported the amounts received -
ceivod from tlio various counties for Iho ex
penses of conducting the business of the cen
tral olllco of tbo bureau Tlio rccoluts were
nbout fOlHI and the expenditures about f 100.
The report of the secretary showed that uv-
oral counties had not paid their quota of tbo
llrst assessment , and it was resolved that
no county which had not paid the first ns
sosRtncnt should bo allowed to appear In the
book
Mr C A. Drury of Atchison wns added
to iho executive committee
On motion of Mr , 3. W. Poarman of Obor-
tin lbo IcgUluturo will bo momoriullral to
appropriate 810,000 for immigrution pur-
1K1S08 ,
A resolution was passed uskinc the com
missioners of each county to pay their quoin
of the expenses of the bureau and to pay the
county's share ot lbo advertising ,
After several humorous remarks und
speeches which created considerable merri
