we ask for Is the eight hour day, and are
willing to accept pay accordingly. 1t is
matter the taxpayer has nothing to dc

HOME FROM THE CAPITAL.
Mayor McCOnOchie's Return from
Washington.
The Prospects for the cum Factory.
An Unsatisfactory Proposition
The Viaduct, Canal. Etc.

Mayor McConochie returned this morn
ing from Washington. He and Mr..
Fred Hass left the capital Friday night,
spent Saturday in New York and reached
Chicago last night. Mr.. Hsss remained
over today in Chicago on business per-
tanning to the visduct. and the mayor.
anxious to reach home as quickly as pos
sible to prepare himself for tonight's
council meeting, came on directly to this
city. An ARGUS representative had a
few minutes conversation with the mayor
this morning. and when Intercepted as
to the gun factory project. lie said:
II believe the secretary of war is fav
orable to the project. generally, 80 to
speak; but he may not urge it, owing to
the fact that no established policy of for
tif1cations has been established yet
When forts are made then the secretary
will be for srming them, and Rock
Island arsenal will have a show at max
ing the guns He is opposed to piling
up guns in the yards. but if the forts are
built. he will, l believe, recommend q
gun factory for Rock Island. The secrs-
tary was surprised when he learned of
the amount of money that had been spent
on the island and unreservedly expressed
his belief that the island ought 20 be
utilized by the government more than il
is. He made one suggestion, however,
that we did not look upon with any great
degree of favor. The governments soon
to locate three national prisons and he
made the suggc stion that one of those
might be located on the island Of Rock
Island. We did not manifest our ap-
proval Of such an idea, but made up our
minds we would come home and see what
people said about it. 1t is my recollec-
ton that several years ago there was a
pris on there but it was afterwards moved
to Leavenworth, Kan. in response to a
vigorous effort on the part of the city. l
don't think we want any prison over
there"
The mayor said the Iowa and Illinois
congressional delegations were solid for
the gun factory. but that Gen. Benet, the
chief of ordnance. was opposed to it and
termed it white elephant"
The visduct and the Hennepin canal
prospects the mayor regards as hopeful
He says that Mr. Hass called upon the
supervising architect Of the treasury de-
psrtment with reference to the proposed
government building at Rock Island
Messrs McConochie and Hsss had
pleasant interview with the president and
have evidently made their time count to
the fullest extent. They say that Mr..
Ainsworth. of Moline, went to Chatta
noogs from Washington and that Mr..
Wylie, of Davenport. went to New York
Mr.. Sickles, of Davenport, did not show
up at all.
The mayor takes the right view about
the national prison. We don't want it,
thank you, Mr.. Secretary; We want
something that will work benefit to our
lsboring people in the three cities-not
an injury. Some other community may
be glad toget your prison. but as for us,
we pass.
