Rock Island county, secretary. After the
appointment of the customary commit
tees, the secretary read an interview with
the Hon. W. II. Niece, published in the
Rock Islander on the 23rd day of August.
The published interview showed Mr..
Niece to be true and loyal representa-
tive of the people in congress. Just and
consistent in all his actions. Free from
political vice or stigma of any descrip-
ton, and a man who should be kept in
the national congress. At the close of
the reading Mr., Gordon of Warren coun>
ty, introduced the following resolution
Resolved, That the record of the Hon.
W H. Niece at the past session of con
gress has been in general satisfactory to
the people He has nobly sustained every
measure in the interests of labor, and as
far as we know, in the interests of the fl
nancial policy for which we are contend
| ing. We therefore recommend him to the
people for reelection, and that his name
be printed on all our tickets
Messrs. A. J. Streeter and W. H. Hea-
ton, of Mercer county, Stevens, Spark:
and Hageman, of McDonOugh county
and Marsh and Gall, of Warren county
seconded the resolution IN brilliant ad,
dresses highly eulogizing Mr.. Niece, and
the resolution was unanimously adopted
Mr.. Neece was then nominated for con
gress by reclamation amid hearty APP
plause.
The Hon r. j. Cabeen, the democrntit
candidate for member of the state boar
of equalization, was next nominated b,
reclamation.
After this resolutions were adopted en-
dorsing A J. Streeter for member of tn
state committee; Robert Bennett 70
presidential elector; Ben Butler and Gen
West for presidential candidates; and tn
platforms of the party adopted at India
apolis and Chicago.

jackson, of Hancock county, B. II. Ma
tin, of Henderson county, Jos. Allard, {
Warren county, Dick Winger, of Merce
county, and j. B. Danforth, of Roc

Agent Cook, of the c., r. /. & P. has
arranged for grand special train to carry
all who may want to go to Davenport and
return this evening. 1t will leave Moline
at Z 80 O'clock taking oil on board who
may want to go from that place, and will
run down to the Peoria depot in this city,
and then over to Davenport, where it will
remain till after the democratic parade,
and exercises, when the visitors from
Rock Island and Moline will be returne
to their homes. The train will return to
the Peoria depot and then go to Moline.
OF course people who prefer to go over
on the ferry in the early evening can do
so, and return on the train when the pa
rade and speeches are over.

The editor of the Fort Dodge Times is
lucky mortal to judge from the follow
notice from his paper: 1--WE have been
particularly fortunate this week in gifts
of flowers. First came large basket
filled with posies from Mrs. Olson, OF
Glare. and now come the Misses Rose with
beautiful bouquet, not of roses, but
those elegant lilies of the pond which toll
not, neither do they suffer lovers of the
beautiful to toll in peace when once they
have beheld their loviness until they have
possession of them With them came a
large branch from an apple tree loaded
with fruit"

Telephone.

The telephone folks have Issued new
directory. 1t is slight improvement
over the others that have been issued, in
asmuch as it is so arranged that each
town may be more readily found than
heretofore. A change has been made in
the numbers used in the tri cities and Mi
Ian. All numbers up to 800 are now as
signed to Davenport; all from 1000 to
1893 to Rock Island; 1000 to 2,999 tc
Moline; 8, 900 to 8, 999 to Milan All that
is necessary now is to add 1000 to your
telephone. For instance the ARGUS tele.
phone was 145 now it is 1,145 These
numbers are nuisance anyway. Not hall
the patrons of the Office call by numbers,
and it is simply nonsense for them to BIZ
asked to do so.

Mems Fine Suits.

A reporter for the ARGUS dropped in at

today and was shown some very fine

which he thoroughly examined. They are
gotten up in the best of style and are in
every respect equal to tailor made and
for twelve to fifteen dollars less on suit.
They are the grandest lot of fine suits
ever brought to this market. In children'S
clothing they are also in full supply of al
the most desirable styles at astonishingly
low prices Mems furnishing goods of al
kinds and in the popular styles can always
be found at this great clothing emporium
