Convenient Arrangement Made
By Mankato Club
DISTANCE TO THE TOWNS
Activities of Commercial Organ
ization Are Shown BY the
Secretary
From Mondays Daily.

Secretary E. F. Soaring of the
Commercial and Automobile clubs
was out Saturday, putting up road
signs. All of the Daniel Boon trail
signs We're put up, and also several
other signs. One of these latter was
at st. Peter, where the road to Man.
kato leaves the main street. Here it
was found that the road west of the
bridge was cut off for repairs, and a
detour through the bottom is made,
emerging near the brewery. At Sterl-
ing Center, signs were put up, show
ing the way and distances to Man
kato, Good Thunder. Mapleton and
Amboy. This is corner where a
great many people get mixed up, and
even while the signs were being got
ten in readiness to put up traveller
drove up and inquired the way to
Amboy. After this it will not be
necessary to call on the inhabitants
for information in regard to the di-
rections. 1t was found that a tree
near Kasota, on which one of the
Commercial club road signs has been
bolted, had been just cut down. The
sign was rescued and brought to the
city for repainting, and will be put
up again, this time at Kasota.
December 2 to 9th is to be OBJ
served as Americas Electrical Week.
1t will be a great energizer for the
"Shop Early campaign.
The road to Madison Lake is now
smoother and in better shape than
at any time this year. There are
sections of it that ought to be re-
graveled before spring, as the gravel
has worked and blown off. The work
of ditching the road is making rapid
progress, and the worst of the
trouble with water is now believed to
be over.
The repairing of the Good Thunder
road in places by the hauling on OF
gravel has been started. The upper
portion of the Strand ravine hill
needs re-graveling more than any
other part of the road, but this will
probably be taken care of. There is
an immense traffic on this road.
Saturday, every road leading to
MduhdlO saw pIOSSooloi VI duloo
bringing big loads to Mankato, and
the streets were filled with cars in
the afternoon Many of the cars
came from long distances. The mer-
chants are beginning to realize what
all of the good roads work of the
recent years has meant to Mankato.
This is a work that should never
have any letup. 1t cannot be over
done.

ciSion in Rail Case.

firmed the district court in the case
of John Curran against the Chicago
Great Western railroad in which
suit was brought for the death of
Arthur Curren.

George Curren, of Waseca, and the
railroad company set up defense
of contributory negligence, it being
claimed that the victim of the acct
dent had not exercised due precau-
ton as he approached the crossing.
The case was thereupon appealed
by the plaintiff The case was heard
in district court in November, 1914,
and has since been pending in the

BOND PROPOSAL
OF MAYOR Will
i. BE LIVE ISSUE
Proposal to Borrow $75O,000
for Roads Heard BY Super
ViSorS and Referred

Mayor Lanes bono message was
taken from the table last night and
1t will soon be an active issue in the
city if plans of some of the super
visors go through. On motion of Sup
ervisor Charles n. Arnold, it was re-
ferred to the several committees con-
cerned with orders to them to report
at the next meeting. After that the
question of a $75O,OO0 bond issue for
the city will be taken before the pub
lie in series of addresses before
semi-public organizations and at a
number of mass meetings.
kalakaua Avenue Considered.
Kalakaua avenue held the atten-
ton of the board meeting last night
for nearly half an hour, about 20 min
utes of which was taken up by thu
reading of the report. Details of the
report of George NJ. Collins, city engi.
neer, on the improvement OF Kala-
kaua avenue submitted last night,
were published in Mondays Star-Bul.
letin. After objections to his scheme
by Supervisor Arnold the report was
referred to the road committee.
No mention was made of the mem.
orial to the governor, although it was
slated to come up. 1t is looked on as
an already disposed of matter by most
Of the supervisors. ....
The meeting was long and deadly
dull one and when near its conclu-
sion, Supervisor Ben Hollinger
sprang from his chair and let loose
q torrent of invectiFe against the pub
lie utilities commission for it's action
just reported at the board meeting
in passing the RRpid Transit charter
to the governor without approval or
action on it, there we're loud cheers
from the galleries" at the prospect of
little excitement. That is a fine
way for body that has been working
hand in hand with this one to act"
shouted Follinger. ut asks us to ap-
prove the charter it proposed and then
refuses approval itself. Where is their
backbone? Why do they pass the
buck to the governor? What is the
use of public Utilities commission
drawing down $40 for every meeting il
it has to run babylike to the governor
every time it takes any action?"
Hollinger cooled down after a min
ute or two of this and the draft OF
the proposed amendments, which had
been read by the clerk, was laid on
the table and the clerk requested to
furnish copies to all of the members
of the board. ......
Supervisor F. NJ. Hatch, chairman
of the franchise committee, commend.
ed the amendments proposed as they
stand, saying that every change in tho
original draft proposed by the city
attorneys had been accepted.
