VICTORY FOR OMAHA OVER KANSAS CITY
Chairman Knaaa Wlpi President
Wattle, nf Grain Esrhenaje that
rrMiiir4 Dlsrrisnlnatloe Will
Xot Bf Tolrrated.
rrnWIrnt Wattles of the Omaha Grain
fcitellange yesterday mornlrm received a
telegram Xrom Chairman Martin A. Knapp
of the " Interstate t'oramtrc commission,
stating that the now 'Frisco grain rat
against Umaha anil In favor of Kansas
City Illegal and that the proposed
tariff rould not be accepted.
This news was highly gratifying to
President Wattles and the members of
the exchange and gave them cause for
celebrating Independence day with In
rreaaed teal. According to local train
men the proposed discrimination against
Omaha would have been exceedingly In
jurious to the Omaha grain market. Since
It was announced the exchange naa madi
determined fight to have It Knocked
out. Falling to Induce the St. Louis ft
San Franrlsco road to do so. It won on
an appeal to the Interstate Commerce com
mission. The effect of the differential would have
been to drain southern Nebraska of grain
through Kansas City without giving
Omaha any chance at It at all. he
prompt aitlon of the Interstate Commerce,
commission and the assistance of Sena
tor Millard ' In the matter is taken by
President Wattles as Indicating that
Omaha need no longer feel at the mercy i jjj
ir the raiiroaus in me iraurr or uujubi
discriminations.
Mr. Wattles Ksplalna.
Tl following statement explaining tho
t:Tair fully was Issued By Mr. Wattles on
receipt of the Intelligence from Clialr
liiun Knapp:
"The (Omaha tlralu exchange recently
rxelved notice of the Intention of the St.
Louis & San Francisco railroad, a part
of the Rock Island system, to put in a
tariff from Kansas Clly to Memphis,
which should apply on all grain originat
ing In Nebraska, south of the I'nlon Pa
cific railroad Hnd which was a cnt In
existing rates of about 4 cents per 100
pounds. This was Intended to draw the
grain from that part of Nebraska through
Kansas City and to southern markets, and
the result ol It was a 4-cents differential
uguinst Omaha. The Omaha llraln ex
change Immediately protested against this
cut and sent Its secretary to Chloago
to see the officers of this road and en
deavor to get tlicm to withdraw It, as It
was an open discrimination against the
Omnlia market. Juno 28 formal ptotest
was made to the Interstate Commerce
commission by wire. This protest was
followed by a letter to Senator Millard
urging hlni to present this matter to the
commission and explain the objections of
tho Omaha Grain exchange. These ob
jections were that this tariff was a dis
criminating one that was to be applied
to one particular locairty and not to oth-
Jers and therefore was Illegal. 1 have
I Just received the following telegram from
" Martin A. Knapp, chairman of the Inter
state Commerce commission:
' "WASHINGTON. July 3 Your tele
Jtram of June 28 now delivered at office.

OUR LETTER BOX.
Voting- at the Primaries.
UMAHA. July 4 To the Kditor of The
Bee: The oftlcers of the polls of the Ninth
waid, Becond district, refused my vote yes
terday morning. They wanted me to state
whether I was republican, democrat or
socialist. Being reginiered as independent
voter I refused to answer this tiucution
so was not allowed to vote. I have bout
a voter In this country since 1ST.', in dif
ferent states, always voted the .democratic
ticket, until the tirst McKinley election;
since then have always voted for be,t
man. or In other words. Independent. Has
any state the right to refuse a L'nited
Strites citiien his vote on account of above
;iieNtlon. ',
If a man votes a mixed picket, can he
call himself republican, -democrat or so-
l.il'sts? How could' I answer this question
and how can the slate refuse my vote?
Gl,'6TAV WOLFF.
Answer The election held on Tuesday
hs not a general election for oftlcers of
he people, but a primary election to select
aelcgatta to conventions to make nomina
tions for office. A condition precedent to
vet inn for or again.it a set of delegates
imposed to represent a particular political
ur'y Is avowed Hfhllatlon with that party.
If the voter wishes to vote at a republi-
an primary lie must have declared at the
irie u' regitiatlun, under -oath, that ha
inttnds to affiliate with that party. This
does not necessarily Imply that ho must
ote that party's ticket straight. If he
leilines to array himself with the party,
