Iowa City's Electric Line

| In consequence of Cong reSsman

! stirring themselves in the matter OF

agreement by which this end will be
attained.
A proposition from Holmes Bros. Il

of New York was received and after

cepted ny the residents of Iowa City.
The proposition as accepted is as fol-
lows:
A company shall be organized

SIS, 600 of which is to be subscribed
by the citizens of Iowa CITY, the
company to issue bonds for s., 900

and said bonds the parties presented
by Mr.. Haines. will put in three

Fourteenth Avenue.

Rock ISLAND. April 20.-EDIToR
OF THE ARGUS: The tax payers of
the Seventh ward would be very
thankful if some of our newspapers
would have their reporter take a
horse and wagon and drive out from
Elm street to Thirtv-ciGhth street
and then invite every alderman to
follow him the next day. We know
then the street would be put in such
a condition that a persons life would
not be in danger by using said ave
nue.. There has been in the past
three weeks only eight horses sunk
down in said street so that they had
to be dug out. and afterwards lifted
out by the neighbors. Anyone hv-
ing in this city who thinks this state
ment is to extremes would do us n
great favor by taking Il 5000 horse
and light horse cart and drive from
Elm street over to Thirty-eighth
street and Fourteenth avenue. and,
give his opinion afterward.
The greatest benefit for the city is.
that the tax collector does not have
to 90 from house to house. or else
the city could not collect any taxes on
above region. for we know he could
not reach us as there are no paths,
sidewalks or streets up to said region
where a man could possibly get up
without running a risk of his life.
Very respectfully,
SEVERAL, TAXPAYERS OF THE BLUFF.

The Chicago Fire.

The near approach of the Worlds
Fair awakens increased interest in
Chicago and her wonderful history.
Today Chicago Is probably the finest
city in the world architecturally,an and
all practically built within twenty
wears The most thrilling and Won
derful chapter in the city's history is
the one telling of the great fire and
the subsequent rebuilding. 1t reads
like a tale from Fairy Land. The
new and magnificent Cylorama of the
Chicago fire just opened in that city
shows in a most surprising manner
the city during the great fire. with
its thousands of acres of red-hot
ruins. thousands more of a surging
sea of flame. and countless thousands
of panic-stricken people fleeing for
their lives, is the most grand awe
inspiring. an realistic scene ever pro-
duced by man. The whole effect is
greatly intensified by the introduce
ton of novel mechanical and electri-
cal devices, making the whole situa-
ton seem like reality. This
remarkable exhibition is located up
on Michigan avenue near Madison
street. and will remain as a promi-
nent attraction during the Worlds
fair. Our readers should make a
note of this great work and not fail
to visit it.

We are aware that some mistakes
have been made in the appointment
of men on the supreme bench of the
State. 1t has of late become the
place for retired governors. OF
course, we say nothing as to the
purity nor ability of either Govern
or Nichols or McEnery, but we do
think the practice Of putting active
and prominent politicians on the
bench of the highest court in the
State is bad policy. Men should be
selected for such places who have
never been active partizans nor
prominent politicians. = Farmers

The straw that broke the camefs
back was the reported Endorsement of

al office was poser TO many. besides
Senator Whites own political fricnds.

did not seem impossible, for politics

There has been much said about
the removal OF postlnasters who have
held Office for a considerable time {;
but it is evident that there is no de-
sire to remove efficient officers Of

where they are satisfactory to those
who do business at their respective

thoritatively announced confirmatory
OF our views: "Of the sixty-odd
