Some Eastern Railroad Writers Think
Valley Junction 10 Suburb Of
keokuk, According to
Their Stories.
HAD BETTER GET MAPS
Suggestion VIII be Made to Industrial
Association to Send Some Lit
erature to Set Them
Straight

Some of tie eastern railroad re-
porters should be presented with a
map Of Iowa. They should be told
that Keokuk and Valley Junction are
in two very different parts of the
state. A writer in the Des Moines
Capital suggests that perhaps these
fasteners get their geography from
studying the map of Europe. At any
rate an injunction should be ISSUED to
keep these gentlemen from perpetrat-
ing any more the following sins which
are found in the story In the Capital:
Eastern railroad reporters seem &C.
casionally to get some Of their i'm
pressions Of the geography Of the
country from the maps of Europe.
One Of the New York papers in
parading incidents connected with the
suit against the Rock Island for an
accounting of the affairs OF the Des
Moines & Keokuk railroad makes the
fantastic announcement that among
other acts of mismanagement the
Rock Island built valuable freight
depot at Valley Junction. q few miles
out Of Keokuk for the purpose OF
further diverting traffic" The article
says that the Rock Island failed to
credit shipments made over the leas-
ed Keokuk line.

Charges are Fantastic.

In the first place It Is superfuous
to call attention to the fact that Val
ley Junction is not "a few miles out of
Keokuk" Again the St. Paul & Kan
sas City short line was built as a
speculative venture by eastern capt..
alists and was not acquired by the
Rock Island until about Ave years ago.
full control being obtained two years
ago. It is also true that the short line
is not competitor Of the Keokuk
leased line. The short line runs north
and south while the Keokuk line runs
lat almost right angles to II. The Keo-
kuk line was built years ago when
railroads were new and when It was
believed that water navigation was
going to rule, owing to its cheapness.
The builders Of the line expected that
Keokuk was going to be the distribut
Ing point for all the freight coming up
the Mississippi and the Keokuk. line
followed an almost level water course
to Des Moines. When the line reach
ed Des Moines the Rock Island was
being rushed through from Chicago
and the dream of the builders of the
Keokuk line were shattered forever.
They appreciated for the first time
that the end of competitive water nav
legation had arrived.

Suit 10 to Recover.


The suit which was recently brought
in the New York supreme court by
minority stockholders il to recover
from the Rock Island $5,O0O,000 alleg-
ed TO have been earned in operating
over the leased Des Moines & Keokuk
line but Of which no accounting has
been made. Mismanagement Is charg-
ed by the plaintiffs to the suit. It IL
alleged in the allegation that the Rock
Island pledged itself in the Keokuk
lease to maintain and develop the
leased line.
Instead Of keeping up the Keokuk
pledges It is charged the Rock Island
financed and built the st. Paul &
Kansas City short line with the ex-
press purpose Of diverting trafic from
the Keokuk line. Materials for this
road were transported over the Keo-
kuk line without charge"
To any one familiar with the real
situation In Iowa the charges are 80
fantastic and impossible that it gives
the impression that q humorist has
been at work.
