Perplexing Problem Which Congress.
Man Prince Will Have to
Settle.

When Congressman Prince of Gales
burg. returned to Washington after the
holiday vacation he left behind one of
the warmest postoffice fights that his
district has known in years. The bone
of contention is the Office at Galva.
where the present incumbent and an
aspirant and their respective friends
are engaged in a setto that has arous-
ed the entire community. When the
congressman was home, it is related,
the first thing he saw in the morning
was n delegation of Galva citizens
holding down the front porch. and the
last thing he heard at night was the
ring of the telephone bell with a Galva
man on the other end of the line An
early settlement of the controversy is
expected at Washington.

Tri-City Press club. Peary'S life is
dedicated to that object, and he hopes
to attain it on his next trip. Respond
ing to President Roosevelt when the
president presented him the Hubbard
medal recently. Peary summed up the
situation is follows:
Assertions that the pole cannot be
reached; that the result of the last
expedition has been to show the un
availability of dogs and sledges and
of the route followed; that there are
better methods for attaining the pole
than by dogs and sledges.
Attainment Simplifed.
1.-THE results of the last expedition
of the Peary Arctic club has been to
simplify the attainment of the pole
so per cent and to accentuate the
fact that man and the Eskimo dog are
the only two mechanisms capable of
meeting all the varying contingencies
of arctic work, and that the Ameri-
can route to the pole and the meth
DDS and equipment which have been
brought to a high state of perfection
are the best for attaining that object.
Another expedition following in my
steps and profiting by my experience
cannot only attain the pole, but this
work can be done in a single season.

as an assurance that the line from

The deed is given TO the American

by its terms 100000 worth of the
company's bonds are TO be taken at

to $500 will be taken later as the road
is extended. The bonds are for $1,000

payable in 1947. They were sold at IS.
Route Being Surveyed.
Three routes TO this city have
been considered, from Monmouth,
Galesburg, or Cameron. which is be-
tween the two on the interurban line
of the Rock Island Southern already
constructed. Surveys have already
been made to Milan, and another sur
vey is now in progress.
The plans and specifications will be
made out as soon as the route is de-
termined on, and the contracts are ex-
pected to be let in the spring.
May he Steam Road.
1t will be recalled that in the adver-
tisements in the Chicago dailies for
the sale of the bonds, the Rock Island
Southern pointed out that the line be-
tween Monmouth and Galesburg gave
a connection with the Santa Fee and
the Iowa Central, and it was indicated
that the construction of the proposed
line would also provide an inlet into
this city for those lines. The COM
pany is authorized under its charter to
construct either an electric or a steam
line and the fact that the surveys are
for an air line, and do not make any
deviation for small towns, indicates
that a steam line is not improbable.
Signatures of Deed.
The deed filed here Saturday is sign

to tear up the tracks of the d., r. /. &

Mayor McCaskrin was arrested, with

Equipment.
TO BUILD THEM RIGHT HERE
Frame Work Laid Out at Rock Island
Shops for First of the
Series.

The Tri-City Railway company has
defined its policy relative to the much
needed equipment on many of it's lines,
particularly in Rock Island and Mo
line 1t has not only defined its policy,
but has put in into effect Indeed the
work of construction of new cars to
supply the lines not now equipped with
the big double truck coaches has be-
gun The first frame work was laid
out upon the floor of the Moline ave
nue. car shops of the company this
morning, and from this will rise in the
next so days the first of the series of
new cars to be built The frames of
three more will be laid the present
week, and henceforth the company
promises to turn out four a month I'M
til a sufficient number has been erect

equipm It, and to spare. This will re-
quire abb I thirty-five.
VIVA AThey VIII be Like.
The new cars, it was officially an
nounced today, will be 50 feet in
length. single truck and with comfort
able seating capacity for 80 people.
They will be, judging from the speci-
fications, the most modern type of
car, not quite as large as the double
truck cars with which the main lines
are equipped, but of the pattern of
what is generally used in Omaha, Kan
sas City and cities of that size. They
will have wide vestibules. considerably
larger than those of the big cars, dou
BILE door entrances, and side seats for
four people at each end, in order to
have a wide entrance, the remainder
of the seats to be crosswise as is the
case with the larger cars. They will
be provided with electric push bells
and other features of up to date equip
ment
