To Prove They Can Re- p place Street Cars | By Newspaper Enterprise i Des Moines, Ia., Aug. 9.—It’s motor! against street cars. in Des s, with the prospects right now that the motor or busses will win. Thus this city of 100,000 furnishes a laboratory for a new. experiment in transportation. Motor busses have put the ‘s.reet railway system out of running here by cutting into its revenues so that even 8-cent fare did not pay.’ Now. the busses are trying to do the street) railway’s work, y | If they succeed they have a good| chance of winning from city council a five-year franchise at the expira- tion of their present licenses Sept: 1. The sitnation in which Des Moines | finds itself results ‘from five years ol wartare between the city and the street ralway company, which has re- sulted in litigation in state. and fea- eral courts, caused a changé.in the company’s managers and the dic~*--| sal of the city’s corporation counsel, and develoved a bitter fight in the | Iowa Legislature. Also there have been two street car} strikes. Fare Increase The situation began to come to a crisis in 1918 when the company, op- erating under a 5-cent franchise, ask- ed G-cent fare. Council refused. the increase. The people also voted it down. Then the company went into a re~ ceivership. The supreme court held year, when I got Mr. Robertson’s cure.

He said, the progress made was satisfac- tory, many of the orders for the liz- nite coal being “repeat” orders. He predicts a growing “business for the sale of North Dakota coal,in South Dakota. 0.
