Wu1ted--A Murshu11tOlU11 Club
First Why
Needed and What Could Do Advance
the Citys Commercial Interests

Editor Times Republican,: AT a
meeting held Monday evening, it was
decided to continue the preliminary
organization of the Marshalltown Club
and meet again early in January for
permanent organization and election of
officers.
CAS- one of the promoters and tenn
porary chairman of this club, Z will
give you a brief outline of the project
from it's inception:
after the municipal election last
spring few business men concluded
it was an opportune time to endeavor
to organize a .Marshalltown Club on
broad and liberal lines. with but one
| platform, For Marshalltown and her
best interests
1.-The plan was to secure 200 resi-
dent members from all classes of men.
our city, and also 100 non resident
members from the county and adjacent
towns. At s25 per year for resident
members, and $40 per year for nom
resident members. will give the club an
income of $4,000 annually.
| at is the intention to hire a secre-
tary a liberal salary to attend to the
duties of the club.
"Suitable and modern club rooms are
to be fitted up with all the accessories
of a first-class city club
mo liquors or gambling are to he
allowed or tolerated.
| THE matter was dropped owing to
Rev. William Ashley sundays revival
meetings in May, and was taken up
| this fall to complete the permanent
organization. Several meetings have
been held and the effort has been made
to complete the organization, but II
has been met with Indifference by our
citizens, if not actual GOODNESS. The m
tention has been to amalgamate into
the new club. the Retail Merchants
Association, the Manufacturers and
IJobbers' Club, and the Travelling Mems
Association, all of whom have either
outlived their usefulness or are dead
ones in fact. The automobile club
should also join this new club and have
a separate committee. if so desired
"The result of the combined efforts
have resulted in securing sixty-fiv
resident members, and one non resi-
dent member from Los Angeles who
had enough faith in Marshalltown and
her citizens to send in his application
without any questions, and check for
fs1o
l "What is the reason for this attitude
on the part of our business men? All
concede and admit that Marshalltown
needs such an organization, but only
sixty-fve have shown $25, worth of
confidence in the town! Not man can
deny but what this club has been pro-
noted in good faith for Marshalltown
land Marshalltown only, and not in the
interest of any political or business
faction. In my opinion the real reason
for the Indifference and GOODNESS this
proposition has received, Is:
First, that some OF our esteemed
citizens fear that we will get together
once more and in that way destroy
their political ambitions
Second, the prejudice one faction

ate few of the vital questions this
club could take up and push to sue
cess:
"A well-lighted and clean passenger
station
"a sleeping car for Chicago earlier
than the midnight, stop over privileges
on all trains.
Equitable freight rates and auditing
of freight bills. Il am satisfied this item
alone will save the shipping interests
three to five times the local expendi-
ture for the clubs support.)
"The reduction of fire insurance
rates. (Here we can make another kill
ing')
IAN organized effort for good roads
in the county.
can organized effort for the commits
sion plan of municipal government.
can organized effort for the city
beautiful.
"An organized effort for absolute
sanitary conditions to check the White
plague.
AN organized effort to sell Marshall
town products to Marshalhown citi-
zens.
Il must not name everything the
clup VIII accomplish. as you Will re-
ceive letter ON the subject. Why
Marshalltown needs business and
social club from the other ga members
and will endeavor to have our nom
resident member also also write you q
letter.
Nothing can be accomplished now
adays without organization. and sys-
tematized organization at that.
Il have endeavored to present this
matter to your readers in an unbiased
manner, and trust that enough interest
will be taken by our citizens to pusa
this club to success. However, !
must confess, l am not as enthusiastic
or optimistic as some others in this 'e-
gard, and fear the January meeting
will prove my judgment is correct.

his application to either the tenn
