Make Keokuk A Big City

against LneA TX OF the lnuus-
trial Assocs lon-the men we
have chos- to push things
and do " -gs-the Industrial
Associate had as well dis
band Q : return the money
pledged .or their support. To
vote against the franchises and
publicity bill is to vote against
the Industrial Association and
their work of upbuilding Keo-
kuk.
Is a first-class street car and
lighting system a good adver-
ment? Or does Keokuk pre-
fer the lantern club?
In all seriousness this city is
fortunate in its present oppor-
tunities. Let's vote the fran
chises and the publicity meas
ure and for once make Keo.
kuk-A CITY!
Did you ever stop to con-
slider how Stone & Webster
are going to be able to make
their investment profitable
unless Keokuk grows? Is it
going to be to their interest to
retard the commercial life Of
this city or push it? Isn't it
reasonable to take the position
that they will work for the up
building of Keokuk.
It means something to iden-
tify this company with Keo-
kuk- advancement.
It means something to re-
fuse their offer -stagnation.
Live cities are the product
of a live citizenship. It's time
for Keokuk to take her proper
place with the aggressive cit
les. We have everything that
entities us to a first-rank posi-
tion. Such a place can be Sc
cured by encouragement to
capital, alertness, cooperation
with Intending investors but
most necessary of all, co-opera-
tion among ourselves.
Some people are afraid that
the new company may run
freight cars on its tracks. Per
haps it would be a calamity for
Keokuk to become so large a
city that such a proceeding
would be necessary. The street
car companies in Los Angeles,
Columbus, Indianapolis and
hundreds of other BIG cities
run freight cars. Some peo-
pie are afraid Keokuk will be-
come a city.
Under the franchise asked
for by the Stone & Webster
company freight cars can be
operated ONLY between the
hours of 10 p. m. and 6 a. m.,
subject to regulation by the
city council. Under the fran
chise which is now in exist
ence the present company can
operate freight cars AT ANY
HOUR DAY OR NIGHT.

Monday, June 18th, election

~ =
Stone & Webster are asking
for a franchise to operate the
public utilities in Keokuk.
This company will invest from
100000 to $500, 900 to put the
utilities in a condition that
will be creditable to the city
and the managing company.
It is absurd to think that
Stone & Webster would ask
for these franchises, spend
hundreds of thousands of dol
lars rehabilitating them, and
then do anything that would
injure Keokuk, or pursue a
policy that would be antagon-
istic to the best interests of
the city. It isn't the Stone &
Webster way Of doing bust
ness. It isn't the kind Of a rep
utation they have established
in other cities. It isn't the kind
they will create in Keokuk.
Once upon a time Keokuk
had an opportunity to get a
high free bridge across the
Mississippi and Keokuk voted
it down. Wouldn't the Keo-
kuk Of today like to have
that high bridge? Wouldn't
it be worth hundreds of
thousands of dollars annual
ly to the merchants? Are
we to repeat the failures
Of the past? Or are we
going to take hold of new en-
terprises in a new way to meet
new conditions. There isn't a
valid reason for voting against
the franchises. Some kind Of
a company, either a weak or q
strong one, either a competent
or an incompetent one, is 60
ing to operate the Keokuk pub
lie utilities. Why not get the
best one?
If you vote for the fran
chises and the publicity meas
ure you vote to Keokuk it's
first opportunity to get away
from the dead-line Of the past.
You vote to break up the
hoary customs of antiquity
and emancipate the city from a
line Of procedure that has had
for its distinguishing motto
nothing doing.
Let's change the placard.
Make it something doing.
Keokuk worked faithfully
to get the water power. Keo-
kuk worked faithfully to &C
cumulate a fund of more than
fifty thousand dollars to be
used for commercial and pub
licity purposes.
The inducing of Stone &

make them good was the first
