There has been much criticism of the
railroad companies doing business IN
Tennessee that they have not before
this put line of railroad to the Shiloh
national park. 1t is twenty miles from
the park to the nearest railroad station.
The Iowa people will travel 400 miles
by steamboat to get to the scene OF
the battle. 1t would seem that there
should be enough enterprise in the rail-
road companies to at least build troll
lev line over to the scene to carry the
people. There would be a trolley line
built at least twenty miles II 1t was
