Raymond Steinkamp and Robert McCarthy, two well known young men, are on a 350 mile hike, having left this city a week ago yesterday -for Muskeegon," Michigan, via Ft. Wayne and South Bend. According to the last letter received by local friends, the two were between Ft Wayne and South Bend. Although very foot sore, they are enjoying their trip immensely. . They are receiving very kind

treatment from the farmers along the;

way, who think they are discharged soldiers. No special effort is being made to make the trip in record time. In fact the only object is pleasure. They pick their route indiscriminately, part of the time walking -im the turn pikes while the rest of the time, they chose

their route along a river.

HSPHM.T TRUST IS IHTRODEEO INTO fllCHMD (Continued From Page One.)

O. T. Knode and Maggie Pry. These are the resident free holders who make this possible. Much Indignation. There is great Indignation among those who see this asphalt proposition being shoved through, on technicalities by the financial clique which Is gaining power in the city's affairs. There is said to be no reason for paving the street with asphalt except that those Interests want it paved to make business for their company. The street railway company refuses to submit to the paving of their right-of-way on those streets with asphalt and will avail themselves of their legal right to use brick. As was said In the beginning this marks the entrance of the Barker Asphalt trust into the city of Richmond, for no asphalt can be obtained in any other way. Subsidiary local companies are often formed all over the country when this trust wants to do business, sometimes when fearing to operate under its own name. It then ties up with local capitalists. The hints that have been given out to the effect, as Mayor Shillinger said this morning "that the time will come when the city streets of Richmond will all be paved with asphalt," seem to bear this out. Great Injustice. The great Injustice of the state law as manipulated by the financial Interests before mentioned is the fact

that they have manhandled the technicality by which the free holders of thestreet, who own very little property and have little to lose, are made the basis for the operation against the wishes of the largest owners of property on the business street ' That this should be the operation of the state law seems outrageous to the largest property owners on the street, particularly when It seems, that there Is no reason for paving the street with asphalt except for the enrichment of the few monled interests which are behind the proposition. , The entrance of the company Into operations here means the ultimate paving first of Eighth street "to obtain uniformity and then to spread over the entire town. ' Attention is called to the unsatisfactory paving which asphalt makes, particularly the action by the elements and the slipperlness of the streets for horses. It Is pointed out that the company is willing to bid a very low figure at this time and then raise the rates when the asphalt system Is started here. Then they will have a monopoly and can raise their rates. This Is the situation in other American cities. The reason that the city of DesMoines went over to the commission form of government was largely due to the Barker Trust of asphalt The war raged back and forth until the town was very nearly throttled In its grasp. Th3 is the proposition that Richmond may one day be called in to face.
