TO THE LOWER END.
Bridge Across Rock River is
What is Needed.
OF MUCH HnfPoRTAHOE TO THE 0ITY.

Rock Island Should Guard and Advance
Its Interests r othsr Cissss nave rAsirs
"A Project Worthy the Endsavors Of
Business Men Partic1lsrly.
The renewal OF the suggestion on
the part of THE Argus in connection
with the announcement of the incor-
p0rati0n OF the Rock Island, Musca-
tine & Southwestern railway, that a
bridge be built across Rock river
near the mouth, has met with many
expressions OF commendation. The
handicapping influences under which
Rock Island has labored for years BY
reason of. the toll levied upon all
teams crossing the Rock river
bridges have had the tendency to
deprive Rock Island of the business
that would otherwise naturally come
here. The construction of the
bridge across Rock river and the
Hennepin canal near the mouth Of
each would obviate the difficulties
which have constituted the barrier
between Rock Island and its legiti-
mate commercial resources. TIE
ARGUS has always been q firm be-
lever in the lower bridge theory.
The location of the canal on the south
side OF Rock river strengthened the
conviction that Rock Islands mer-
camille advancement depended much
on the consummation OF such an un-
dertaking. The manner in which
Davenport has subscribed $50, 900 for
the building of the lower bridge be-
tween the two cities is evidence of
what can be done where public
spirit is aroused. Rock Island can
do as we'll as Davenport. Muscatine
a few years ago put a bridge across
the Mississippi to catch the trade of
farmers that would more naturally
come to this city. Rock Island can
do as well as Muscatine. Rock ISL
and few days ago subscribed lib
orally to secure an insane hospital
for the good of the county. Rock
Island can do as we'll again.
What Such . Bridge Would Do.
The erection of such q bridge
across Rock river at its mouth wheth-
er the railroad outlined in Satur-
days ARGUS is assured or not would
be great factor in developio e and
advancing the city. There are innu-
merable reasons why it should be
taken hold of either by the city and
county together, or as q whole or in
part by popular subscription and un.
der such conditions as would make
it absolutely free. :
1t would establish q new market
iu Rock Island for the farmer of the
lower end.
1t would bring the Hennepin canal
nearer to our door.
1t would open an avenue of com.
mercial intercourse to the lower end
of the county.
1t would compel the city to re-
move the tolls over the Rock river
briey yes. which keep people out oi
town sather than inviting them in.
1t would bring to Rock Island the
large class of farmers who now 90 to
Muscatine to trade instead of coming
here.
1t would demonstrate that Rock
Island, which has made steady ad-
vancement in recent years. leading
many other cities of its size, is still
on the move.
