THE INTERURBAN PROJECT.

The state OF things with respect 10
the interurban project is not neces-
sarily hopeless. As matter of fact
the CO. Lions at this end of the Lire
are better than they ever were fer
an agreement. If there Is any trouble
or any permanent hitch it must come
from Mr.. Fischer and his associates
And we have a right to assume that
NJ. Fischer and his associates are
reasonable men. Those gentlemen
have had enough experience in
rrvi ting or projecting enterprises in
which Public interests and public
opinion must be consulted, to know
that there must be obstacles to over
come. and differences of opinion TO
be adjusted. aud that it takes time aud
patient efforts to do both. If the en-
terprise is important the time and
effort are not wasted, even if all is not
gained that is at first hoped for, and II
all concerned in II are properly III
earnest they will not fail To give
cheerfully whatever of time and eF.
fort may be necessary SO long as
there is reason to hope for success.
The extension al the Mckinley, or
OF any other system of interurban rail
way to Cairo. Mound City, Mounds and
villa Ridge is a project OF sufficient
Importance to justify much patient Of

here. but also on the part OF Mr.
Fischer and his associates, or any
others who may be engaged in the
building aud operation OF such rail
re ads In Enthusiastically IL they
have really given this. project any
serious consideration. The people of
Cairo have given 1t much attention
and the few men who have done the
work so far are entitled to much
credit and II is freely accorded to
them. They have made mistakes as
they admit They asked fer more
than they wanted or expected 10 get. !
In the very nature of things they ex
pecfed opposition and criticism. ard
would have been disappointed hal it
not come. They did not want the city
to grant all that they asked and wcrs
glad TO make concessions, although
they wanted it to appear that they did
30 under protest. fearing always that
more concessions would be aske
than they were willing to grant. Per.
haps they went too far in their de-
mands; perhaps if they had not fran
ed the ordinances in the confident ex.
pectation OF arousing opposition and
OF making concessions that opposi-
tion would have been less determined
certainly 1t would have been less
effective because Il would have hal
less merit. less ground to stand upoa;
and IN that eass 1t might have been

Much has been said from the point
lof view of the railroad company re-
garding Cairo's disadvantages as an
Iinterurban point. Perhaps word or
1.-TWO for Cairo would not be out of
lorder. 1t is charged against this city
that she does not promise as good a
business connection for an interurban
railroad as interior cities because she
would be the terminal, the end of the
| line, and that it will be costly road
a part OF the way. This may mean
| much or Il may mean comparatively
| little. 1t may he a very strong argu
ment against Cairo or 1t may be no
argument at all, according to the
point Of view Other railroads have
been built and are being built through
those bottoms at much greater cost
and the Big Four railroad has always
made Cairo it's terminal somehow
quite q profitable terminal, toe. The |
Illinois Central, the Iron Mountain |
and Cotton Belt find good bit OF |
business here that does not in any
way depend upon their southern con
necticn. The interurban could have
connections with all these lines and
get its share Of what the southern
yield.
But granting ali that is claimed
granting that, because of Cairo's dis
advantages, therefore she should Civ 1
