The promotion was an attempt to foster the growth of the young auto industry in the United States and to boost newspaper sales. The first automobiles in the nation were produced only two years earlier, and they were so new at the time that the paper's editors could not easily agree upon a name for them. After considerable wrangling, the editors decided to call it a Moto Cycle race and first used the term in a July 15 article.<sup id="cite_ref-ec_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ec-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The original course of the race was to run from <a href="/wiki/Chicago" title="Chicago">Chicago</a> north to <a href="/wiki/Milwaukee" title="Milwaukee">Milwaukee</a>, but the roads were found to be too poor for early cars to traverse easily.

The finish line was near what is now the <a href="/wiki/Museum_of_Science_and_Industry_(Chicago)" title="Museum of Science and Industry (Chicago)">Chicago Museum of Science and Industry</a> (what had been the Palace of Fine Arts at the <a href="/wiki/World%27s_Columbian_Exposition" title="World's Columbian Exposition">1893 Columbian Exposition</a>).

They were forced to requisition horses to pull the cars because, as the police informed them, they had no right to drive their vehicles on the city streets. The situation caused the race to be again postponed while the <i>Chicago Times-Herald</i> editors convinced the city leaders to pass an ordinance to confirm the right of these vehicles to travel on city streets.
