ocrat Of the Bridge & Terminal
company passing through the
process Of . "hold-up" In Rocl

the case expressed in the same CON.

project in which both cities have be.
come interested had gone to thu
Iowa SIDE for commiseration over the
evils that beset it on the Rock Island
side. There is much hue becsuse
certain property holders of water
lots which the Terminal company
traversed took steps to secure pay
for. and the righteousness of whose
position in so doing was acknowl.
edged BY the purchase by J. L. Ha, {
for the Termin,l company. Of the
property in question. Instead Of b.
ing eandbsgged in Rock Island, the
Terminal company has met with the
most liberal and publlc-spirited
treatment on all hands and ali oces-
sions. II there has been any "hold.
up" the general public is not iamil.
