estate dealer. notices = pronounced
improvement in business conditions
generally and particularly IN bis
own field Of endeavor since the
campaign against lawless conai-
tons in the city.
People no longer shOw the same
degree Of hesitation" Mr..
Hance said today. about In.
vesting in Rock Island real
estate, since the situation
here has been 80 improved. Per-
sonally I am grateful to the ipfiu-
ences which brought this about.
and l am sure my sentiments are
fully concurred in by other BUSH
ness men. The improvement 10 90
pronounced that it is becoming
more noticeable every day. With
the menace OF the underworld re-
duced to q minimum, expect to
see Rock Island enter upon an era
of the greatest prosperity from .
business point OF view"
Mr.. Nance was particular to state

III was thought that the Illinois
Chamber Of Commerce was the
logical Organization to handle this
matter a. no honest man could
charge the Illinois Chamber OF

The Illinois Chamber Of Commerce
through its entire history has never
participated. directly or indirectly,
in any controversy in which labor
organized or unorganized was in
volved and. it was consequently felt
that the motives of this organiza-
ton could not be honestly ques-
toned. The organization is in nc

class, nor IL It in any way opposed
to workmen as a class. whether
they be organized or unorganized,
but 1t is very strongly and emphat-
ically opposed to murderers.

MCLMERS REJOICE:
HAVE GOOD REASON
Special Moline Service !

: Residents on Fifteenth street.
Moline, are going to celebrate the
opening of the newly surfaced thor
oughfare. And they have good
reason for rejoicing. For years
Fifteenth street, the main thor
oughfare OF the city from the
south, was in almost impossible
condition. The street was surfaced
with asphalt in 1902. ~TraYel was
decent for several years after that.
But the asphalt began to disinte-
crate long before it's allotted time.
The result was long drawn-out liti-
cation between the city and the
Barbour Asphalt company. involv-
ing the question of maintenance
of the street by the contractors.
Chuck holes were opened with ev-
cry rain. and as fast as one stretch
was repaired, other depressions ap-
peared.
Now, after ten years of agitation
for a new road, the dream of the
agitators has been realized. Eli
DeRue and W. H. Christensen,
bluff merchants, are the prime
movers in the plans for the pro-
posed celebration.

CORN RISE NOT
SPECUIh Tive,
SNOW ASSERTS
Expert Says 17.Cent Advance in o
Days Is Result Of Growing Ap-
preciat3sn In Market.

Chicago. Nov. 16.-Corn market
ing conditions unprecedented at
any time in the last six years, are
stirring up the liveliest sort Of in
terest among grain traders here.
The feature attracting attention is
that within about so days. the value
Of corn has scared about II cents q
bushel at q time when the bulk OF
the crop is still in the producers
hands.
What this situation means to the
farming community and to the bus
mess relations Of the country at
large was authoritatively discussed
In statement issued today by B.
w. Snow of Bartlett, Frazier COM
paQy, former assistant secretary Of
agriculture at Washington. Mr.
Snow said:
Crop Is Short.
The advance in corn is not spec
ulative in nature. but is the result
Of growing appreciation in mar
ket centers of the country situa-
ton. The crop is some 800, 000, 600
bushels short Of last year. and the
stocks of old corn carried over are
about 1Q0,000,000 bushels smaller
than year ago, so that the avail
able supply for the coming year is
fully 400,OO0,000 bushels smaller
than was the case the past year.
The surplus of corn accumulated
as a result Of war urging an enor-
nous war price has been used up,
and we are once again on basis
Of current supply and demand.
1.-THE present price movement
has had its origin in the country
with the farmers as the price max
! ing factor. The country set the
[, pace by paying more for corn for
feeding purposes, in transactions
between farmers than it command
ed in terminal markets. Ordinarily
Iowa corn is tributary to the Chi
! cago market, but this year western
southwestern and local feeder de-
mand has created a price that con-
tinues above Chicago parity. Cali
forn'a yesterday paid G6 cents g
bushel for corn in Omaha, a price
fully to cents a bushel above
Chicago's relative quotations I'm
der these conditions. there is nc
| material accumulation of corr
stocks at terminal markets, and the
ordinary commercial demand has
to be satisfied with current re
ceipts.
