Silence is not Approval.

The sponsors of the Dark Lantern"
secret, political gang who are trying to
obtain control Of the finances of the city,
cannot make the people believe that the
Catholic priests approve of their organize
ton because the Catholic priests do not
come out publicly and deny the insinua-
ton of the organ" that SUCH was the
case, The Catholic priests of This city are
not IN the habit of rushing before the
public to deny every SANDER that is started
about them or the church. Any Catholic
can learn their opinion by asking. 1t is only
when a SANDER is repeated that they fee
justified in making a public denial. Il
seems to be the universal opinion that
the organ will not repeat it's insinuatior
or make any more laundering illusions to
the church, for the purpose of deluding
Catholics into its secret brotherhood" OF
holding them to the support of party
whose head couusels are carried on in {
secret chamber by means of signs, grips
and passwords or whose war-whoopis woe
to traitors"

ton. The supper-as is always the case
at the Harper House-was all that could
be desired

The Laboratory of the System

Tho stomach is the laboratory of the
system, constantly going on. These result
in the production of that wonderful viv1fy,
ing agent the blood, which in state of
health rushes laden with the elements
of vitality to the remotest parts of the
system. Dut when the stomach is semi.
paralyzed by dyspepsia, blood manufac-
ture is carried on impertecty, the circula-
ton grows thin and sluggish, and the
system suffers in consequence Moreover,
indigestion reacts upon the liver and
bowels, rendering the first sluggish and
the latter constipated. The brain also
suffers by sympathy, and sick headaches,
sleeplessness and nervous symptoms are
engendered. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
reforms this state of things gives perma-
nent tone and regularity to the stomach
and its associate organs, the bowels and
liver, and ensures complete nourishment
and increased vigor of the system. 1t is
the most popular as we'll as the most eff
tcient anti-dyspeptic and tonic in
America.

DEATH OF Judge seENcER.

Hon. John W. Spencer died at his
residence in this city. last evening, at B
o'clock P. M.
For some time past, the rapidly declin-
ing health of the deceased has rendered
it apparent his life was drawing to a
close. He had long been afflicted with
renal complaint which for months past
assumed an aggravated form of renal
collie, and was attended with intense and
prolonged bodily suffering.
The deceased was born 10 the State OF
Vermont, July Goth 1901. He removed
from Vermont to Illinois in 1920, and came
to this county in the fall of 1928. He was
twice married, FIRST to Miss Louisa, daugh-
ter of Mr., Loudon Case, by whom he had
one child who died in 1871 his second
marriage was to Miss Eliza Wilson, who
survives him, By his second marriage he
has had FIVE children, Edward W., Charles,
Julia, William A., and Roswell, all Of
whom except Charles are still living.
In public life, Judge Spencer has occu-
pied prominent and honorable position,
and enjoyed deservedly high reputation.
He was the first County Commissioner of
this County, the first County Judge, per-
formed!th first marriage ceremony in the
County, and was member of the State
Constitutional Convention In 1S47 He
was also an Officer in the Black Hawk
war, and was well acquainted with the
noted Indian Chiefs of this section of
country at that memorable time. In mat
tiers of public interest, and in the conduct
of public affairs of this City and County.
Judge Spencer was always distinguished
for his hberahty of sentiment. good judg-
ment, and faithful discharge of the
duties which he was called to perform.
In private life. the virtues and kindly
benevolent disposition of the deceased were
as conspicuous as they were unobtrusive
and manly. Pre-eminent among his per-
sonal qualities was his strict integrity, ir-
reproachablc morals and his large hearted
Charity. In short, he was a genuine
Christian Gentleman.
His funeral will take place. on Saturday
morning at the 5th Av. M. E. Church.

u. s. Courts.

We find the following in the Davenport
Democrat:
Hon. j. FL. Murphy aud Hon. J. T.
Lane have gone to Washington to take
care of Davenport's interests in the mat
ter of the proposed establishing of new
place for holding the federal courts in
Iowa. X bill has already passed the
senate providing for the removal of the U.
s, courts from Keokuk to Burlington, but
there is little prospect that it will pass the
house. Our Davenport representatives,
however, propose to sendeavor to secure
the passage of a bill leaving the present
court at Keekuk. but creating an addition
al one for Davenport. 1t is an important
project, and one that would add very great
ly to the prominence of our city.
