Iowa City Commercial Club Takes
a Shot at Cedar Rapids Men.

Make Claim That the Proposition
Submitted Does Not Protect the In
terests of the PIace-Asks City
Council to Not Recognize Request.

Iowa City Commercial club last night
took hot shot at the Cedar Rapids
company which asks for franchise
for the inter-urban electric railway.
The proposed city law, as drafted by
Attorney Clark of Cedar Rapids for
Messrs. Bennett, Booth and other pro-
moters of the projected road was scath-
ingly condemned. The club denounc-
ed the ordinance as it now stands as
selfish and Mnjust-giving the promot-
ers everything and Iowa City nothing,
practically tying this city hand and
foot for two years, more or less; leav-
ing the owners free to sell the fran
elise to spectators, and other serious
objections. As an expression of disap-
prevail, the following resolution intro
duced by Judge M. j. Wade was unan-
imously adopted:
Resolved, That as an expression of
the sense of this club we declare the
ordinance as prepared by the Cedar
Rapids attorney and presented to our
city council, does not protect the inter-
ests of Iowa City, and does not meet
the approval of this club, and
| Resolved, That we recommend the
franchise committee of the club to pre-
sent it to the city council, and if it is
agreeable to that body to point out
the defects of the document"

Local Chicago Great Western Agent
John L. Sullivan has received instruc-
tons from headquarters in regard to
the handling of construction crews
that will be sent to Mason City to ex-
tend the road from that point to Man
ly Junction. This improvement will
give the Great Western direct route
to st. Paul. 1t would be but step
more for the road to extend the track
from this city to Allison, distance of
thirty miles and thus secure a short
cut from Mason City to Marshalltown
instead of having to go around by
Sumner and Oelwein as at present
This would also make it possible for
the road to handle all the traffic direct
from st. Paul through. Mason City
Marshalltown, and Des Moines to Kan.

the fact has been made it is believed
the road will soon take up the work
of this connection.
