SURVEYING FOR ROCK ISLAND?
North From DEBORAH Between
Burr Oak and Hesper.

Much interest has been taken in
the item in last weeks paper stating
that surveyors, supposed to be in
the employ of the Rock Island rail
road, had been engaged in running
lines north from the Rock Island
terminals in this city through the
city limits. The reports in daily
papers, the visit to DEBORAH of the
highest officials of the road on a
special train, and the constant
rumors to this effect for two or
three years, have led to the belief
that the road was to be extended
north from DEBORAH to Owatonna,
II.nn., a conSummation devoutly to
be wished by all our people.
During the past week the gang of
surveyors have been gradually
working north, running various
lines. They seem to be laying out
route north from DEBORAH, pass
ing between Burr Oak and Hesper
at a point about four miles east of
Burr Oak.
Nothing can be ascertained from
the railroad company about this
matter, they simply refuse to say
anything one way or another, but
these men are not at work for moth
ing, and the sentiment is increasing
that they mean business. The only
tangible expression obtained from
authoritative circles is a statement
made to the writer from one of the
Rock Island officials here a few
weeks ago, to the effect that the
road were contemplating doing
something for DEBORAH, and further
he could not say at that time.

ANOTHER POWER DAM
Possibility That Big Concrete Struc-
ture Will Go i'm at FreepOrt.
DEVELOP ALUMINIUM DEPOSITS
Chicago and Minneapolis Parties
Claim to Have Secured Water
Rights and Investigating
Proposition to Develop
$50 Horse Power.

We have been predicting right
along that before many years atten-
ton would be attracted to the great
opportunities for big water power
plants along the Oneota river, and
that the building of the Upper Iowa
Power Co.'S dam would be only an
incentive for the further develop
ment of the thousands of latent
horse power daily going to waste in
this stream.
Now comes J. E. Lappen of Leroy,
Mimi, formerly of Freeport, and a
party of Minneapolis and Chicago
parties, with proposition which
looks mighty good to us, and which
we hope will be carried forward to
completion. Mr.. Lappen has dis
covered immense deposits of alum
mum bearing clay rock in the val
ley north of Sand Rock below Free
port, and for the purpose of develop
ing these deposits and making
aluminium, he proposes to construct
big concrete dam on or near the
site of the old paper mill dam, de-
veloping $50 horse power, for the
aluminium plant, and besides for
supplying electricity wherever want
ed.
We understand further that par
ties from Chicago and Minneapolis
have also been investigating pos
sible water power sites up the river
towards Bluffton. Surely something
will come of all this, and we still
hold to the claim that this river will
yet turn the wheels of industry that
will employ hundreds of laborers.
1t is here, investors are picking up
water power sites wherever they
can find them, and it is up to us to
get some factories here to use this
power. We can do it if we get to-
gether.

BABY's SCALP CRUSHED

"Our little daughter, when three months old, began to break out on the head and we had the best doctors to treat her, but they did not do her any good. They said she had eczema. Her scalp was solid scale all over. The burning and itching was so severe that she could not rest, day or night. We had about given up all hopes when we read of the Cuticura Remedies. We at once got cake of Cuticura Soap, a box of Cuticura Ointment and one bot tie of Cuticura Resolvent, and fol- lowed directions carefully. After the first dose of the Cuticura Resolvent, we used the Cuticura Soap freely and applied the Cuticura Ointment. Then she began to improve rapidly and in two weeks the scale came off her head and new hair began to grow. In very short time she was well. She is now sixteen years of age and pic ture of health. We used the Cuti- cura Remedies about five weeks, reg ularly, and then we could not tell she had been affected by the disease. We used no other treatments after we found out what the Cuticura Remedies would do for her. J. Fish and Ella M.
 Fish, Mt. Vernon, Ky, Oct. 12, 1909."
