Rock Island wants rapid transit
as well as other improved means of
communication with the lower end of
the county, and the sooner the coun-
Gil encourages move in that direc-
ton the better. 1t is not necessary,
nevertheless. that ordinances should
be indiscriminately granted. The re-
sponsibility of the petitioner should
be fully considered and established.
Ordinances ought not to be granted
for the asking, but the corporation
properly established that will aid in
the long sought for communication
with the lower end deserves every
encouragement that the city can give
il. In this connection the city may
be i'm position to insure the placing
of the Rock river bridges in state
of safety. Under the conditions of
the ordinances under which it is now
operating i'm Rock Island the Tri-City
Railway company is pledged to con
tribute $4,000 to the improvement of
the bridges. With this amount avail
able joint Arrangement might be
made with the suburban corporation
that would enable the city to put the
bridges in suitable condition.

While in some lines a summer dizziness
rent as usual in June. and in most lines
trade is in excess of June of 1901, despite
the high range of prices in certain lines or
goods, the high prices being on articles
which come into general use, such as meats
and other lines which are TO considerable
extent substitutes for fresh meats These
include provisions, poultry, eggs and ce-
realine products. On such articles as dry
goods, groceries. leather, hardware, prices
are no higher than year ago. Flour mas
not advanced out of its usual range for
some years, but Irish potatoes. poultry,
eggs. butter, apples. bananas. oranges
range from 10 to 80 per cent higher than in
June of last year. 1t is evident. however,
that break will come soon. as the crop
outlook is promising. During the week
ended June there were but few changes
in values. Green stuff of all kinds Is lower,
but strawberries, oranges and apples,
which are scarce. ruled firm at quota tons
The coal market has a hardening tenden-
cy, but yet local dealers have not ad-
vanced prices. The seed market is rather
quiet; but not more so than Is usual In
June. Seed merchants have enjoyed big
trade all the spring and are contented with
taking matters easier. There was no change
in prices during the week. The weaker
tone to the wheat market is beginning TO
be felt in flour, and if continued another
weak lower prices for -four may be real
