ILL. gMtqain to connect up with No. 19 at a point approximately 2M milts wesk-of^^pary. He advised the building of a subway which would accommodate lite extension of route 22 up the Fox river valley to the city of Mc- 1 Henry. / Mayor Ben Raae of Crystal Lake was the next one called. He told the commission that there was no fight on at Crystal Lake as to the location of the route and that the people which he represented would be perfectly satisfied with any location that the department might see fit to select and concluded his short argument by saying that all the Crystal Lake people want is to have the road built and to build soon. After a few minutes' pause Supt, Sheets announced that the route as argued by Mr. Schmitz of Elgin would be the one selected and that the state was ready to let the. contract jusi as soon as the right-of-way had been secured. Mr. Sheets was told that the right-of-way matter had ail been adjusted, which means that the Crystal Lake people may look forward to an early letting of the contract on that section of route 19. The problem of settling the controversy over route 20 as same passes, thru the city of McHenry was then taken up. Atty. A.' H. Pouse of this city was the first McHenry man called upon to offer his argument. Mr. Pouse then proposed the Elm street route, which would start on the Volo road, cross Fox river at Justen's hotel, thence on Elm street, crossing the narrowest part of the mill pond and thence to intersect Waukegan road in West McHenry and thence west on the regular McHenry-Woodstock road to connect with the present pavement at Sherman's hill. Simon Stoffel, addressing Hie officials, proposed the same route as did Atty. Pouse. Supervisor S. H. Freund of this city also went on record as favoring the Elm street route. E. J. Fellows, one of our highly esteemed rural residents, argued in favor of the Waukegan road route, starting at the end of the present contracted stretch of road near the Mrs. Kennebeck farm, thence west to Waukegan road, crossing Fox river at a point to connect with Waukegan road in the city of McHenry and thence following Waukegan road thru West McHenry and thence out of McHenry on the present McHenry-Woodstock road. Mr. Fellows argued that this was# the proposed route when the people were called upon to vote on the $60,000,000 bond issue for hard roads and added that this route would be shorter by a quarter of a mile than the one proposed by the preceding speakers. J. C. Ladd of Ringwood al§o spoke in favor of Mr. Fellows' proposition. Atty. D. T. Smiley of Harvard, who owns property at Pistakee Bay, favored the Pearl street entry into the city of McHenry and argued for that route. He told the members of the commission that he was familiar with the McHenry situation and believed his choice to be the best to be followed. During the course of his argument he took a shot at our. Meal attorney for the manner inrwhich he< handled the meeting as held in this city last Thursday night and also went on to show why Supervisor Freund favored the Elm street route by telling the commission that Mr. Freund was a blood relative to Fred Justen, owner of the hotel bearing his name. Atty. Smiley's argument failed to bring forth very much enthusiasm from the McHenry delegation assembled, and since the hearing we have ^eard at least one of those favorine 'the Pearl street entry as anything but enthused with the Harvarjr attorney's appeal. There were a few other short arguments, after which the chairman of the meeting announced Jthat the highway department would go over the evidence carefully and render ^ decision in the near future. It is understood that the decision of the state department will be final and no matter what this may be everyone must be satisfied as no 'further hearings on the matter will take place, McHenry's answer should be, LET'S HAVE THE DECISION AND ABIDE BY IT.
