Mr.. Norris Makes Reply

her and means life and death to US
1T is time for us to move when some
body tries to take away that which
is valuable to us Absolutely no bust
ness advantage could be gained In
secrecy except to make the railroad
believe we. We're asleep upon 1ur
rights while open, busnesslike treat
ment with concessions could save all
and gain shop improvements In the
hundreds of thousands.
/ stated clearly in my letter that
while Mr. Hawley complained of the
treatment his company had received by
Marshalltown police and mayor he
denied that this would influence them
any and again / gave it as my opin-
ion that while it Is very apparent that
soreness at Marshalltown for the strike
difficulties has prejudiced our case my
impression is that the real considera-
ton is the bonus, The road, needing
new shops finds a golden opportunity
offered by Oskaloosa to open the prize
to competitive bidding" This is still
my impression. however. l personally
know that many of the officials of the
road, not Mr.. Hawley, whom / saw IN
New York and not Mr.. Gutter, Who
came to the road after the strike, ola
believe that they were very badly
treated by the mayor of Marshalltowu
for they told me so at the time. and
while they insist now that this will not
influence this shop decision do believe
that 1T is very unfortunate for all Of
us that better order was not pre-
served on our streets at that time.
The charge that Mr.. Sewers has in
fluenced, assisted or communicated
with me regarding removal Of shops is
false and / believe has been made
with full knowledge that it was false.
Now that Mr.. Ingledue has requested
his attorney to make me personal Is
sue in this campaign 1t is excusable
for me to say some things which 1
might not have said am leaving to-
night for Minneapolis and will ehdeav-
or to discuss local politics in Mondays
issue of the Times Republican.
When the delegation of citizens re-
turns from Minneapolis we will know
more about this matter / remember
we'll that took part in fight to re-
tain the general Offices ten years ago
and we succeeded even tho we did not
get the order from New York until the
day on which the general manager,
general superintendent. general audit
or and others were in Peoria renting
offices but later on we lost the general
offices believe we have q stronger
hold on the shops and am optimistic
enough to believe that we are going to
hold them but we must be up and do
ing and when the program Is decided
upon / think that my name will be
found we'll toward the front for the
good Of Marshalltown even tho am
not trying to be elected to third term
in office on the strength of it.

Indicative of the interest taken in
