SANTA FE SHOPS
NEED NOT NOV {
Water Power Company Denies That
Any Change viii Have to
be Made.

1t was absolutely denied b. the
Mississippi River Power company to-
day that the Santa Fe shops in Fort
Madison will be overlooked when the
dam is built, and that any change viii
have to be made in its present loca-
ton by the railroad company
The denial is occasioned by the
following article that appeared this
morning in the Burlington Hawk-Eye.
Some twenty-five years ago the Santa
Fe railroad made its way into Chi
cago from Kansas City, via Fort Mad
ison. Big shops were built at the
Gem City of Iowa and bridge was
thrown across the river there. The
last months have brought strange. in
teresting rumors about the Santa Fe
and Fort Madison. They are OF the
kind that cannot well be run down
The only people who do know are not
going to do any talking. II is said thar
the big dam at Keokuk is going to put
the present site Of the Santa F'e shops
at Fort Madison under water Il IS
also stated that the Santa Fe tracks
at Fort Madison will be flooded. and
rumor has it, that the bridge which
was not intended for eternity, has seen
its best days. Therefore, rumor says,
the Santa Fe Is going to shake the
dust of Fort Madison from its feet and
to seek home elsewhere. Now this
NAV all be wind. but it is being told
among people who are not in the habit
of discussing things that may or may
not happen in the dim and distant ~
ture.
Burlington is not like Des Noines.
She is not like some other Iowa cities
that are nearer 10 the Gem City Bur
I1ington would never make an effort 70
deprtve Fort Madison OF anything. But
/ If the Santa Fe is going to pub ont q
Fort Madison there is no reason under
the sun why Burlington should not
make the necessary effort to get that
road 1t is a part Of the unwritten
history OF Burlington that she could
have had the Santa Fe road, when
that road went to Fort Madison There
may he some excuse for doing the
wrong thing once. but there surely
could be no excuse for Burlington i
she did the wrong thing a second
