CTS and smaller decorations with which the buildings are so profusely covered.
 Asearly as o'clock many veterans were about the streets and crowds of people had begun to arrive iu town and to appear on the thoroughfarcs in holiday attire, Us every regular train and many special ones arrived bringing more than their quota of passengers The estimate that 10000 strangers are in the city to-day does not seem large.
 Viewed from Franklin Square the parade was magnificent spectacle and was wit messed by fully l0,0o0 people. Tho grand arch at tho head of the square was finely decorated and was the centre of attraction, especially 10 the eyes of tho veterans, bearing as 1t did. a finely executed repre scntation of the battle cf Gettysburg, AS tho parade appeared in sight cf tho Grand Army at the square, the air resoun,lcd with cheer upon cheer by the impatient crowd, and when Gen.

AWonderrnl Chauge of Front

This mornings Union contains another
letter from Architect Schureman, the pur-
port of which is that after his return from
Washington after his efforts with regard

not say that Mr. Gest didn't amount to
ANYTHING. The ARGUS under most cir
cumstances would not feel called upon to
devote much space to this wind bag and

that Mr.. Schuremsn did say to a number

CAMPAIGN LIES.
Trying &c Injure .-.Mr. Cable In the
Eyes or the People.

Desperation OF ther Republicans in
Trying &c IDjure -Nr. Cable In the
Eyes or the People.
The Union came out this morning with
an attack upon Mr.. Cable. 1t is Gone in
the hope that some one in the district NAV
read it and believe it. 1t can have no
effect wherever Mr.. Cable is known-per-
sonslly or oy reputation. 1t is the evil
dence of desperate struggle Truth is
cast to the winds. Anything that will
lay even shadow upon Mr.. Cable must
be used. The friends of Mr.. Gest see the
ground slipping from under his feet and
in their agony they give vent to their vi
tuperation. How calling it must be that
they cannot truthfully accuse Mr. Cable
of something discreditsble. They rack
their brains in desperation; they call in the
aid of every one and nyone who can con-
coct story or invent q lie. Day by day
the case is getting harder. Everything
that can be said in favor of Mr.. Gest has
been said over and over again. A new
course must be pursued Right or wrong
Mr.. Gable must oe attacked They hard
ly ever attempt the truth iu any case,
but even when they state well known
fact they distort it in such way as to
mislead, and this in the most trivisl mat
tiers.
The Union lends itself most heartily to
these bastard methods. 1t seems in its ele-
ment when opposing the truth. 1t I'M
blushinglY makes statements without
shadow of foundation. II calls in the
aid of irresponsible people to help it out
in its dire dilemma. 1t accuses Mr. Cable
of being in favor of cheap labor At the
coal mines which he controls al the town
of Cable the men are better paid than at
any other mines in the state, or in the
world fol that matter. To these men he
has always shown kindness and considera
ton. When with them it is as one
of themsel yes. He dons the rough garb
necessary and lamp 10 hand he goes
about among the men talking to them
and listening to what they have to say.
He knows them all even by name They
all know him and respect him. When
any one is absent he asks for him by
name. He has no nonsensical airs or
graces. As he has not with the miners
neither has he with those with whom he
comes in daily contact in other walks of
life. To people in Rock Island
this statement is superfluous. They
know that Mr. Cable Is frankness,
generosity and simplicity itself They
know that he would go out of his way TO
help the needy and relieve the suffering
IN any and every way possible. But to
the people who do not know him in other
parts of the district, the damnsble lies
that are now daily told by the Union and
others may cause some to think of him
differently from what he really is.
But the object of all this is easily seen
The star of Mr.. Gest has already set and
if Mr.. Cable can be blackened in any way
the ends will Justify the means. The
people have tired of Mr.. Gest. They ask
that he step down and out. He has him
self to blame Mr. Cable will succeed
him and will make worthy representa-
tive Hence all this writhing in agony
on the part of his opponents.

FRANCIS MURPHY COMING
The Famous Temperance Lecturer to
GIVE n Series in Rock Island

The Famous Temperance Lecturer to
GIVE n Series in Rock Island.
At the meeting of the friends of tenn
perance at the Baptist church last night
it was unanimously urged to arrange
with Francis Murphy TO hold series of
gospel temperance meetings in this city.
A general committee of management con,
sisting of two persons from each church
and two members at large was appointed.
This committee will meet to organize at
the United Presbyterian church next FRI
day evening at 8 o'clock. About S75 was
raised in very few minutes toward de
fraying the expenses. All were enthusi-
astic and determined to make the meet
ings a success. 1t is expected that Mr..
Murphy will lecture in Rock Island inn
medistely following his weeks engage
ment in Davenport which is to begin esr-
ly in October.
Mr.. Murphy opened series of meet
ings at Fort Madison Sunday night and
the Democrat of Monday said:
Five minutes before the opening of the
meeting the well-built, well preserved.

his way through the crowd. made his way

for general talk and ordinations. such as

speaker. Looks just like he used to,
etc. At the same time ripple of Sunday
evening applause went through the audi
ence. Following the speaker came the
newly made Mrs. Murphy. Mrs Murphy
is lady perhaps in the forties. tall, slen-
der, with dark hair tinged with gray and
bright. CHEEKY face which at once at
tracts and one whose smiles bespeak KIDD
ness and gentlsness. The lady took a
seat in a chair, where her voice arose with
those of other sisters. in the gospel hymns
which followed.

OUR COUNTY CANDIDATES..

The Democratic Ticket Will be Elect.
ed From Top TO MISUNDERSTANDING.
| ing Words From ALI Over the county
Added to the gratifying reports that
are daily coming in from sill over the
Eleventh congressional district at the ia
vor and enthusiasm with which the name
OF MIR. B. T. Cable is received. comes the
encouraging fact that everywhere the
democratic candidates for county officers
are gaining ground and that not only will
the democracy under the leadership OF
Messrs. G. d. Gordon and Geo. B.
Browner retain possession of the offices
of sheriff and treasurer respectively. but
will also capture the offices of county
clerk and county superintendent, through
the popularity of Chas A. Creutz and
B. Marshall. respectively. Take the
ticket all the way through and it is the
most popular and therefore the most for,
tunate that has ever been placed in the
field. II possesses not only in its in
dividuals. but in its entirety every ele-
inent of political strength. meeting as it
does al, ends as TO fitness and cspabili
ties for the respective offices.
For sheriff. C. D. Gordon, the farmer and
soldier. is running like race horse He
already has his opponent distanced and
practically out of the race This is not
mere guess work, but il is fact as any
canvasser of the field well knows.
Republicans who are frank confess the
election of Geo. B. Browner for county
treasurer. They have abandoned all
hope for Campbell some time since The
immense popularity of Mr.. Browner. his
ability and industry are such that there is
no room to doubt his election and con-
sentative people of either party don't
doubt it.
For county superintendent of schools c.
B. Marshall is practically elected The
republicans in despair over the loss of the
remainder of the ticket are cllnging to the
hope that something may yet turn up
that will give them show at re-electing
the present incumbent-but the trouble is
that whstever turns up is on the wrong
side of the score. The more they hear
the more demoralzed becomes their out
look.
As to county clerk there is but one re-
suit conceded. and that is the election of
Chas A. CreutZ of Moline. The fellow
workingmen of the candidate not only
there but here have determined to elect
Mr.. Creutz and that settles it. With the
additional strength he will receive not
only from his party but from his personal
friends he will have majority that will
make his opponent very sick at heart
and very much disguised with politics in
general
With all these glowing prospects
founded on the most careful lnves-
tigation of the situstion the democracy
has indeed reason TO feel jubilsnt and
determined that their victory shall be
complete from one end of the ticket to
the other. participated in By every csndi-
date Of the party. This is the spirit that
makes conquest on the political field not
only possible but certain.
