He said that no bonus was needed, and
that the proposition was good one,
that capitalists were tumbling them
selves to invest in, or words of some
what similar import. The council lost
no time in granting these gentlemen
a franchise, on Nov. 26, and the fol-
lowing spring was to see line built
from st. Peter and down Front street
to the park This was to be the first
section of line to the twin cities.
The promises were not fulfilled, and no
line was built.
Next the Mankato & st. Peter Rail
way and Lighting company was to be
organized, and a franchise was granted
to it on April %, 1905. 1t provided
for city line and line to st. Pc

except portions of Second and Broad
were granted to this company. w. II.
Hixon and others were back of this
enterprise and although nothing came
of it, they had Mr.. Collins again at
work on the proposition.
The Mankato Railway, Light and
Power company made an earnest endea-
vor to get street railway for Man
kato. It's first idea was to. build a line
to st. Clair, also, but this was later
dropped when it was seen how difficult
il was to interest outside capital

People Made Good.

The amount subscribed by Mankato
people outside of the syndicate was
$35 900, although some of this has
not yet been paid in. The syndicate
puts up 100000, which will pay the
balance of the cost of the line. This
plan of building with home money
eliminates every bit of watered stock
and inflated valuation.
Mankato people make good where all
efforts to get the line built by outside
capital failed. On May l, 1908, the
day required by the franchise five miles
or more of railway is on operation.

TAFT rs ELECTED.

Taft is elected. Mr.. Bryan's third
campaign has proven unsuccessful,
and doubtless he will retire, either
by request OF, his party, as the lead
er of Democracy.
1t has been remarkable cam
paign in many ways. and there has
been a great silent vote, that ap-
parently has been cast for Taft New
York states proves a great disap-
pointment to- Mr. Bryan's expecta-
tions. His majority in Greatr New
York falls far. below what was ex-
pected and he loses. the state by a
large majority. @ -.
The entire east votes for Taft.
This was confidently expected by
the Republicans. Mr.. Bryan's theo-
ries, his instability, his lack of poise
and economic equilibrium have lost
him the confidence of the people.
With the election of Taft. it is
confidently believed that there will
be restoration Of business activity.
The business world has confidence
In him. 1t has no confidence in
Mr.. Bryan. However much it might
admire him as a man it did not be-
lieYe him the equal of the Repub-
Hcan candidate, in sound sense or
in administrative ability. z.A:
The result proves the entire abil-
ity of the people to govern them
selves and to decide the great pub
lie questions right and to their. best
advantage. eesss-a7'e''''s' t
As for Mr.. Bryan, he has had re-
markable career, ssbut as the leader
of$the Democracy, it is ended. He
cannot hope to again compete for the
presidency, after three defeats.

cess of the primary law will not be
