Cheap and Direct.

On the other hand, the route above
mapped out would embody advan-
tages that would appeal to all inter
ests. 1t would be comparatively free
from engineering difficulties and there
fore cheap, and direct to all points
of any yet proposed. With these adj
vantages there ought to be little diff
ficulty in perfecting an arrangement
between the city an interurban rail
way company that means business,
by which new bridges can be built
and their maintenance provided for
without charging the public tolls for
their use.

Some Plan Necessary.

1t must by this time be evident to
every thinking citizen of Rock Isl
and, and every observing resident of
the adjacent territory to the south
that the question of permanent and
convenient highway connections be-
tween the county seat and the lower
end of the county is one that must
be settled for a generation. at least
and that within the next five years.
Two of the bridges now in use will he
past repairing, and the other two will
have to be replaced by heavier ones.
The wise thing to do is for all the in
terests involved TO get together, map
out a plan and all work for it,
Of course Il road paralleling the
Mississippi river and running near its
banks to the lower end of the county.
would be a most desirable improve
ment. but many hold that the cost is
an obstacle that there is no prospect
of overcoming for years. The city
would have to build such a road prac-
tically alone, and % maintain it after
wards. 1t would be calculated to
draw trade from 4 considerable dis
tance, and the building of a railway
line to the lower end of the county
would in great measure dispense with
the need for it.

New Road From Sears.

If wagon road were extended
slightly west of south from the june
ture of the Ninth and Twelfth street
roads in Sears. Rock river would be
reached at the point formed by the
bend in the river just below the old
paper mill, and from there bridge
could be erected to Big island. Then
by following the western village limit
south across the canal, and the mar
row south channel. the present high
way would be reached near the north
end of what is known as Cheney's
lane. The road thus afforded would
bring all points to the south and west
mile or more nearer to this city
than by the present road, and assum-
ing that the government could be
prevailed upon to remove the canal
bridge to the new crossing. would
greatly simplify the bridge building
process.
If Milan and the country to the east
were disposed to object to such
course they might retain the bridge
present road down the canal bank
which would still leave the distance
from Milan to Rock Island no great
er than it is now. AS the south chan
mel accommodates only Mill creek
now. bridge half the length of the
present one would he sufficient to
cover it, and probably one of the
present iron bridges across the mid
die channels could be used for Milan's

When Mr.. Kittredge was appointed

a hope of its own that the time
might come when the senator would
introduce a bill of this character.

congratulations had been offered by
the relatives Of the contracting par
ties the guests sat down to an ele-

the people who appreciate her worth
as a young lady to high extent.
She has been teaching school at
Grand View, in Douglas county, for
some time and has formed large
number of acquaintances near the
place she is to make her home. Her
many warm friends in this city will
extend sincere congratulations on her
union and wish them the greatest

BOOK AGENT SEASON OPENS.
School Book Agents Working Their
Way Through the State to Sc
Cure New Contracts.

Just at the present time South
Dakota is the storm center of all the
great school book concerns of the
country. This is owing to the fact
that on June 10 new contract will
be made for supplying books to the
schools of the state will be made and
it will be in force for five years. 1t
is too big thing to let slide without
making a great effort to land some of
the contracts. The Sioux City Tri-
bune has been keeping tab on the
agents as they passed through that
town on their way to the green fields
of South Dakota to get in as much
work as possible before the contracts
are let, and the paper makes the
following comment on the exciting
times that are now prevalent in the
school book field:

Close Ball Game.

The Huronlte gives the following
account OF the baseball game played
between the teams OF Dakota Uni
versity and Yankton college last week
at the athletic contest:
The two teams were pretty evenly
matched. Mitchell being a little
stronger in the box and at the bat
and up to the seventh inning seemed
to have a little the best of it. the
score standing at that time , to in
favor of Mitchell During the sew
enth Yankton knocked the Mitchell
twirler freely and when three men
were, out had tied the score. This
made things interesting and Mitch
ell came. to the bat the eighth time
determined to knock the sphere for
several runs if possible. But Yank-
ton was playing ball, too, and put
them out in one. two, three order.
Yankton then came to the bat and
followed Mitchell's style Of retiring,
the score still standing 5-5 at the
close of the eighth. The ninth inn
ing closed in the same way. and
Mitchell went to bat for the tenth
time but were quickly retired with
out scoring. Yankton put in two
scores in the tenth and won the
game. 1t was good exhibition Of
the great American game and demon
strated the fact that notwithstand-

The Bush League in Operation.

The six clubs in the Iowa and
South Daktoa league started the sea-
son Tuesday, Sioux Falls opening at
Sioux City and LeMars at Rock
Rapids. The Flandreau team does
not get into the game until June
%, when it plays Sioux Falls. Flan-
dreau starts with a percentage of 500
and from the galaxy Of PLAYERS on
the team the rest OF the clubs will
have hard fight Oh their hands to
beat out the Indians. Hillebrand
and four other college players will
join Flandreau June % and will play
out the season. With the exception
of Sioux City none of the clubs have
their full team and substitutes are
being played until the new men
come on. The bush fellows claim
that they will put up as good a
game as the western league or the
American association. We hope
that arrangements can be made to
have some of the league teams play
a game or two in. Mitchell during
the season, should they have an off
date.
The managers confidently expect
to be able to play through the sea-
son without going to the wall, as
has been frequently predicted. 1t
appears that with schedule ar
ranged and much expense saved in
racing around trying to get games as
they did last year, which eat up the
greater share of the profits. the
thing can be accomplished. Elan
dreau is picked as the possible winner
Of the pennant.
