GOOD TIM BIER.

The Gazette has positive lnfor-
nation that Colonel c. c. Steven
son would make the campaign for
Governor If nominated. He will
make no effort whatever to secure
partisans in the primaries, to fight
other Republicans, but will do all
his work against the other party.
Mr.. Nichols, of Austin, is also in
the hands Of his friends. who will
present his name as candidate
He is thoroughly worthy and de-
serving.
Ex-senator Hickey has been
talked about more than any one For
the position. and has reluctantly
welded to the pressure OF his
friends,and is an open candidate.
Ex-Governor Kinkead's name will
be before the party, and his honest
face and cordial ways will make
him popular always.
There may be others to be con
sidefed. but surely no State has
better names to choose from, and it
will be hard for the party to make
q mistake.-Gazette.

There is going up complaint
that several Of the steam laundries
established to supercede the CHI
nese laundries have failed. The
people grumble because the white
laundrymen charge more than the
Chinese laundrymen. This IS un
reasonable! The whole anti Chi
nese crusade proceeds on the doc
trine that the Chinaman lives 80
cheaply that the white worker can
only compete with him by adopt
ing like un-American manner OF
living. Do people expect Ameri-
can civilization upon the plain OF
the Chinese wage? They ought to
pay the white laundry more than
the Chinese, because the former IS
more valuable to society.-Record

A "HOLIDAY HOP"
An Important and Enjoyable sociai
Event at Turner Hall Last
Evening

Last evening occurred one of the most
delightful dances which has taken place
in the city for some time, ard the remem-
brance of it will linger with those
whose pleasure it was to partic>
ipate. We refer to the holiday dance
which was held at Turner hall The hall
is small but comfortable, and well adap-
ted for dancing. Rock Island, Daven-
port aud Moline were represented, and
itwoald appear as if there was to be a
revival of the jolly times which used to
characterize, some few years back, the
society of the three cities. To invoke
the Divine blessing on such revival
would be fitting tribute to the pleasures
of the by gone years. About 0 o'clock
the merry dancers began to collect, COM
ing by twos aud fours; not long after
the first dance of the programme, the
lanciers was formed, and from the happy
smiling faces of all, it was evident that a
jolly good time was anticipated. The
elegant costumes of the ladies, riValed
only by their bright winsom faces, gave
glow and color to the scene. The
first dance was followed by variety OF
dances, waltzes, polkas and plain
quadriles sufficient to suit the
most fastidious devotec of the
terpsichorean art. Dancing is conducive
of good appetites and the ladies of
Trinity Guild were the recipients of much
praise, deserved praise too-for the sup
per they furnished. The dance was a
complete success, and one and all were
sorry to leave; but good night" had to be
said and the party was over at 2 o'clock
this morning. Schillinger's orchestra
furnished the musice.
