INTERURBAN DEVELOPMENT OF INDIANA Fiction Is Outdone And Romance Is Out Romanced In The i Wonderful Story —■ - I

In three of the finest interurbatcars belonging to the Indiana Union Traction company the State Democrat * ic Editorial association left IndianapI oils for a fourday trip through the I northern part of the state, malkng stops at Peru, Warsaw, Goshen. Elk- ' hart. South Bend, Laporte and Michigan City, returning home from the latter point bn Sunday, June 4th. The cars in this service had been especially fitted up for the party, combining ' every possible convenience. In no Other manner would it be possible to { make such a trip and have the same 1 comfort and cleanliness as can be af- ' forded by the interurban service—flying across the country with wide-open 1 windows, a cool breeze blowing, seeing the best of the cities and towns through which they pass—absolute absence of dust and cinders and no annoyance to mar the perfect pleasure of such a ride. ‘ The trip itself was carefully selected as being one which would prob- ' ably offer the greatest amount of pleasure for the time allowed —starting from the capital city northward, i through the counties of Marion, Hamilton. Tipton, Howard, Miami. Fulton. Kosciusko. Elkhart, St. Joseph and Laporte, a distance of approximately 40b miles for the round trip, passing over the lines of the Indiana Union Tra - tion company, Indianapolis to Peru: the Winona Interurban Railway, Pern . to Goshen: and Chicago, South Bend and Northern Indiana. Goshen to Michigan City, cn the cool shore of l.nhe Michigan. Ten ..ears ago such a tri > by trolley would have been Im-tasU-ble. Now there ate many tr'ns of like distance and even trins o f much greater mileage can be taken in the states of Indiana. Ohio, Illinois or Michigan, the four states that represent probably the greatest development of interurban lines in like territory In the world. When we look backwards less than a score of years and see the de- , velopment that has come about during that time—-the trolley being the greatest of all —we can in a measure grasn the immensity and wonder what the next decade will bring. However, the one live subject we know of now is the interurban. The advent of the , trolley has put life in dead communities, built new towns, and in fact no factor in the world’s history can point to the rapid advancement in the upbuilding of the territory as has and is being brought about by the interurban: business, both mercantile and industrial —society, education, and the I latter the greatest of all. I The February issue of “Forward!” i the Commercial club publication of 1 Indianapolis, featured the I. T. U. sys- . tem and the interurban lines generali ly, entering Indianapolis. | The article told of how the first in- ; terurban car entered the capital city I eleven years ago. to be precise, on the I first day of January, 1900. ft was from Greenwood, eleven miles away to the i southwest. i Today there are, on an average, 472 ! traction cars in and out of Indianapolis each twenty-four hours —approxi- ! mately twenty to every hour of the twenty-four. This article states that fiction is outdone and romance is out-romanced in the wonderful story of interurban ' development in Indiana. Its end no ; one can fortell, and its past, present and future importance to Indianap- • oils is equally beyond the power of approximation. There are nearly 16,000 people being carried in and out of Indianapolis every day on the interurban lines. An article by Will J. Dobyns. secretary of the Indianapolis Trade association. of a trip by The “Boosters ” Club, over the same territory as was made by the Editorial association, has this to say: Indianapolis the Hub. The numerous interurban lines radiating from Indianapolis traverse a great section of the state of Indiana. In this respect Indianapolis is like the hub of a wheel, the spokes representing the interurban lines. I There are now six separate and distinct companies operating interurban lines in and opt of Indianapolis. ; These are the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern, with 380 miles of track; the Indiana Union Traction company, 365 miles; the Indianapolis. Columbus and Southern, 117 miles,; the Indianapolis and Cincinnati, 108 miles; the Indianapolis, Crawfordsville and Western, 45 miles, and the i Indianapolis. Newcastle and Toledo, 1 45 miles. The total mileage is 1,060. Directly contributory and running their own cars into Indianapolis, are i four other lines, the Fort Wayne and Northern Indiana, the Winona Interurban, the Ohio Electric and the Lebanon and Thorntown, their mileage be-

■ Ing respectively. 130 miles, 67, 50 i and 11. The mileage of these four companies ■ is 248, which, added to the mileage • of the first six companies, bring the : total to 1,308 miles. There is. in addition. 710 miles of ■ track in Indiana over which ears are not run Into Indianapolis. This makes - the total interurban mileage in Indiana, 2,018. Os the 710 miles not directly cni> ■ tributary to Indianapolis, however, only 1.28 miles is not connected 1 with lines that do enter Indianapolis. The actual number of campantes does not give an adequate idea of scope of the Interurban systems. Three of the six companies that operate in and out of Indianapolis are composed of divisions that constitute practically separate and individual lines. Thus, the Terre Haute.dndianspoils and Eastern has five divisions, the Indiana Union Traction three. So while only six companies are operating. thirteen distinct lines enter Indianapolis. Again, these divisions have various terminals and connections. Quoting again from the 1. U. T. system magazine for February : Trolleys and Business. (Wall Street Journal.) Business opinion in Cincinnati estimates that the commercial and financial interest of that city profit to the extent of 150,000.000 annually as a direct result of trolley communication with the surrounding country and neighboring towns. The middle west lias a large number of points which have excellent interurban systems, among which Cincinnati, Ohio: Indianapolis, Indiana, and Columbus, Ohio, are especially worthy of mention. Ten years ago nothing of the sort existed, but a revolution in merchandising and in the relations of the rural and village people to the larger cities has since taken place. The country merchant has not been wiped out. He still handles the small trade, while the people of the towns and country go to the cities for their larger purchases. The country merchant can make a turn-over in goods more quickly now' by aid of telephones ajid trolleys. Another result has been the increase in the value of farm land. Census reports for different states frequently show gains of 100 per eent or more. Not a little of this is among the older portions of the country, and has come from interurban electris roads. It is different with steam roads, because their influence on the value of the land depends more largely upon the distance from the stations. The trolley lines, however, have stations everywhere; each farm is a station for passenger and goods. The transformation is doing marvels in making the country more attractive and the city more accessible. Millions of pounds of copper, thousands of tons of steel rails and hundreds of cars of a modern type will be needed to supply the expansion of interurban electric lines for many years to come. Another article in the I. U. T. system magazine for April aptly tells the tales of a merchant in a small town and his trade. The Interurban and the Small City Merchant. The retailer in the small city or town with trolley line to the larger commercial centers, has learned the solution of what was at first glance a paradoxial situation. He watched the growth of traction line travel primarily with alarm, but now with a satisfaction resulting from the past few years' experience, knowing that while some of his customers will avail themselves of the city trip to make purchases, In the end nothing could serve his purpose better than that they should, as the bringing within his zone Os trade, of new merchandise of styles of wearing apparel serves to stimulate or create new business for him. Is he not making weekly trips : to the same sources of supply and arranging for a showing of the very articles which the “city shopper” has sei cured? Novelties in every line of gen- . eral merchandising can be turned ■ quicker because the demand has been ' created for him. Moreover the farm i er (and the farmer’s wife) have more . ready money to spend, also by reason of the taction line influence. Quick I and frequent transportation facilities - have brought city nroduce buyers to >' the farmc-'t who live near the trolley. , offering a contiguous market for •’ll . his surplus—h- has learned that i» is I worth a considerable sum every ye-r ■ to be near a traction line, aside from I the convenience to his family and ■ should he want to buy or sell, it is as- ■ tonlshing how much more a farm with- - in a mile of hourly traction service is

i worth in cash than one five or ten miles away. i To return to the original text —lhe ■ retailer looks at interurban travel > complacently—it all helps. All of the foregoing articles apply ’ in a general way to the Interurban » situation and what Is true of one loi cality is true of all others, where goes ■the trolley—advancement in even line of business is sure to follow. The • trolley always builds up—never tears down. , I o | BOARD OF HEALTH NOTICE TO CLEAN UP. ,\1! persons living in th * city of D c.-tur. lu.t. are hereby iMti.'.ed th wl atevi r is injurious to ut-xtli, or i d< < ent. or offensive to the r-ewes. o. , an ol>structi«* to the free ur* of Pio I eity. so a» to essentially interfere with the comfortable enjoyment ct lite property, is a nuisance and Are suoject of an action.
