form sometimes occurs, and exhibits
symptoms somewhat similar to those of
contraction OF the no +; but acute in

generally called founder.
This disease Is Uccasioned by over
straining Of the laminF from long stand

what he said;
Talking with the Inter Ocean represen-

Mayor j. Z. Mott, of Rock Island, one of
the delegates to the western ways eonven-
ton, said that in the matter of preference
for gubernatorial candidate the democrats
in the Rock Island district and through the
northwestern portion CT the state, were
rather inclined toward Carter Harrison.
Mayor Mott seemed to think the republi-
cans were DESTROYS of keeping Harrison
out of the field. considering him some
thing of candidate TO contend with. The
mayor said he thought the support of the
democrats would be given to Major
Beardsley in his candidacy for reappoint-

ages that Rock Island wished to enjoy

Operations to be Resumed

Mr.. James NJ. Montgomery, one of the
incorporates of the Black Hawk Paper
company, was at Milan today, looking
over the mill, and making arrangements
to start it in operation as soon as possible
The mill, which is known as No /, was
shut down just before the cold weather
commenced, and the machinery, etc, is
in somewhat rusty condition. A force
of men have been put to work to make
necessary repairs, and put everything
in order, preparatory to starting up again.
Straw is being received every day, and as
soon as the machinery is in proper condi
ton work will be commenced Mr.. Mont
gomery says that day force will only be
engaged at first, which will consist of
from 90 to 25 men. Further on 1t is the
intention to work both night and day,
which will require double number of
workmen. The gentlemen composing the
company are well known business men,
and there is no doubt of the successful
result of their labors.
