MIR. Head is an optimist.

Manager of the furnace factory looks
for better business more building and
can see wave of prosperity coming.
He says:
There is a general feeling with the
Marshalltown people that we are on the
verge of prosperity, and that Mar
shalltown for the coming year will
have better business and prosper more
than during many years past. l look
for more building than there has been
for the past few years. I believe it is
a good time to invest in Marshalltown
real estate.
II think the thing most needed to
make Marshalltown more prosperous is
a medium that will bring the business
men and the moneyed men of the town
closer in touch with one another and
by so doing strengthen confidence in
one another, and encourage the idea
of all pulling together for the one pur-
pose.
81 believe the best manner of OBJ
tanning factory enterprises is thru a
live commercial club which is contin-
ually on the outlook for propositions.
and which is composed of people who
are capable, and are inclined to inves-
tigate the same thoroughly and in an
intelligent manner.

Our Location All Right.

Mr.. George r. Estabrook does not look
for great deal of building during the
next year but he does have great faith
in Marshalltown as a. factory location
for the reason that the Fisher Governor
business keeps on increasing and the
product going largely east of Indiana
He says:
Referring to the factory enterprises
of Marshalltown, / believe that they
have been fully as successful as any
other city in the state. Every one Of
them seem to be on good sound fin
ancial basis and there is room for
more.
business can be done in MARSHALL
town as cheaply as in any city in the
state and my observation leads me to
believe cheaper than it can be done in
Chicago. believe that we can manu-
facture our goods cheaper in Marshall

CONFERENCE HELD
j. H. kiIImar Meets Mayor Ingledue's
Committee, But Settlement Was Not
Effected-second Conference Will Be
Held Monday or Wednesday of Next

The preliminary scrimmage preced-
ing the possible settlement of paving
difficulties of those who are represent
ed by Mayor o. l.. Ingledue's commit
tee was held Wednesday afternoon
Mr.. j. H. Killmar, general agent for
the Barber Asphalt Company, was in
session with Mr.. Ingledue's committee
in the council chamber for almost three
hours. While the results were of a
negative kind, settlement was not ex-
pected, and the meeting was devoted to
an interchange of ideas.
Mr. Killmar was extremely guarded
in what he said, and made no propo-
sition of any kind, which would be in
dicative of what his company might do.
His contention was that the paving was
up to contract, but If, as the committee
claimed, it was fact that the paving
averaged a certain per cent short in
material, the committee had just claim
for demanding a reduction in the price.
Mayor Ingledue was spokesman for
the committee ana aTSueu us coHleH-
tions altho he made no propositions of
a basis for settlement.
Another conference will be held eth
er next Monday or Wednesday, when
both sides will be prepared to make
propositions of settlement. Mr.. Kill
mar may be here on Monday, if not, he
will come Wednesday. He made no eff
fort Wednesday to meet the committee
representing the forty-four who have
appealed from the assessment.

Wants Paid Secretary.


Mr. r. H. Duncan, manager Of the
Marshalltown Cornice Works, new
concern, says:
II think Marshalltown is one
OF the best, if not the very
best, town in the state Of Iowa from
manufacturing point of view We
have everything that might be desired
In the way of railroad facilities, and it
would certainly seem to me to be the
fact that we could. secure real estate
for manufacturing purposes in Mar
shalltown fully as cheap or cheaper
than any of the larger cities.
"As to our outlook for business DUR
ing the coming season, 1t is better than
ever before during our time here, be-
ing about three years and a half. The
building outlook for Marshalltown is
not very f1attering just now and was
not very big last year: Speaking from
our own standpoint, covering the state
as we do we think our prospects are
good.
I'VE think that Marshalltown should
have several more manufacturing in
dustries than she now has and believe
II the right kind Of effort is put forth
we could have more. Towns like Wat
erloo, Fort Dodge and one or two 9TH
ers we have in mind. are out bidding
us for new enterprises just the same
as buyer for a large manufacturing
concern goes out and bids for new bus
mess. Personally we have had advan-
ces made us from the above mentioned
towns to come to them and locate, Of
fers which we are still considering, al
though we do not believe that their
prospects are any better than prospects
Marshalltown could offer.
I'VE believe, that in the way Of Il
suggestion, that the commercial club
could employ a competent man to look
after the matter of securing new enter
prises, if necessary take trips to see
the prospective concern and their pres
ent location, look UP their require
ments, etc.
