THE INTERuRBAN ORDINANCES

There Ii no good In scolding any
one on account of the delay in pass
\ ing the interurban ordinances. Moth
ing ii to be gained BY such tactics.
We can not all think and feel alike
1 about the details. but it is probably
safe to say that, on the main issue
the desirability OF an internrban rail-
May and the earnest wish 70 have one
WI are all agreed.
The matters about which citizens
Il seem to differ are mostly Of minor
Importance having q bearing only
upon the immediate ncighborhocds
whence the objections come and
these differences can probably be ad-
jusfoa bs mutual concessions, 50 that
the ordinances WAL be acceptable, II
not entirely satisfactory to all con
C6rned.
The point of utmost Importance to
the community at large is that there
shall be no flaws in the ordinances
which will weaken. or perhaps annul
them as to the main issue-the build
ing Of an interrrban railway to Mound
City and Mounds
1t may be true. as correspondent
elsewhere In this paper contends
that the Mckinley people are not al
all concerned in this project. Ger
tainly, no documentary evidence has
been submitted to the public that the
McKinieys are behind the movement
Rut the public need be very little
concerned about that II will make
little difference to them who builds
the iste II. ban railroad. The import
ant n int for them is that 1t should
~ lit within a reasonable time aud
IN the right way, and operated for the
benefit Of this community To this
end careful scrutiny of the ordinances
Is not only proper, but important-no
only with respect TO matters of law,
but with respect tc matters Of policy
as we'll There is reason to believe
that the amendments made at th'
suggestion of Judge I.ansden insure
the public an interurban railway un
der the ordinances as they now stand
or all rights viii lapse. This was no
the case as the ordinances wer'
originally drawn aud it is an import
ant point gained. There may perhap
be other objections to them whicl
ought to be and doubtless can b
met. The ordinances are stin befor
the public and The Bulletin win b
pleased to hear from citizens pro an
con with reference to them.

"As look over the body OF officers

Let us free our minds Of cant and
boldly assert that It Is not so much a
question Of age OF body as It is age
Of brain.
In the lower grades I recognize an
enthusiasm for efficiency which causes
turret officers to spend ~ hours out of
the "a with their guns and mounts and
connections, not reluctantly but cheer
fully. Each aspires to win the blue
ribbon Of the service and write his
name first on the competitive list.
Do their captains share this spirit
and strive to excel their colleagues In

distance between Montreal and Lon
don IS 2,s20 miles and between New
York and London, $3.50 miles.
II IS expected that the new canal

the development Of the Ottawa river
It Is estimated that with the compile
tion OF the canal the water power
available along the river win be al
most as great as that Of Niagara and
for electrical purposes 1t win be faI
superior to Niagara. because the pow
er at those falls Is confined TO a radius
OF about 50 miles. while the Ottaws
river affords water power along i0t
miles at convenient distances. With

with its great resources Of iron ore

pected 10 develop into one Of the great
manufacturing centers Of the con

new route from Chicago and Duluth &c
