where Mrs. Brooks and the children have
been visiting for two months. Mr..
Brooks was greatly pleased with Ripon,
which is little city of 5000 population,
with streets paved with brick and beau
tiful lawns. For the finest house in
Mankato there are five at Ripon that will
discount it. There is an ordinance there
that protects the song birds and squirrels,
and the city is filled with fine gray squir-
rels. They are so tame that they will
eat out of the hands of the residents,
and Mr.. Brooks would place hickory
nut on his shoulder or in his pocket and
they could climb up his clothing and get
it. The cement sidewalks and curbing
were not nearly as well made as those in
this city.

II. l.
Hunt to express himself upon the ques-
ton before the board. Mr.. Hunt stated
that he did not feel that he had a right
to say much. He said that he had no
money to invest in an electric railway
even if he had faith that such an
enterprise would prove to be a paying
one. 1t is the history of electric rail-
ways in small towns that they do not
pay. In the Minnesota towns outside of
Minneapolis and st. Paul the railways
are not doing well, and most of them
have been in the hands of receivers. In
Winona, a town twice as large almost as
Mankato, the electric railway is barely
paying expenses. In st. Cloud no money
is made by the company, the ears run
ming empty a good share of the time.
Duluth has grown to that extent it
can support railway fairly well. Pos
sibly an electric line running into the
country from Mankato would pay, but
as municipal proposition he had his
doubts if it would prove to be pay
ing investment. He would rather the
city be without a railroad than it to
have one and the cars running empty a
greater portion of the time, as such a
condition would do Mankato more harm
than good. Only a short time ago Mr..
Hunt was conversing with wealthy
gentleman in Chicago who informed
him that the time would come when elee-
trio lines would not be operated in towns
of less than $4,000 population; that au-
tomobiles would be used as the means of
rapid transit. Automobile carriages can
be operated at an expense of 81 or So
per day while the cost of operating an
electric car is much greater. Mr.. Hunt
would be glad to have an electric rail-
road built in Mankato as such an enter
prise would undoubtedly be of great
benefit to the community even if it would
not prove beneficial to those who owned
