These columns have shown by ex.
cerpts from President Harrison's
speeches that his sentiments are lofty
and expressions fe%licitous. His run
ming mate, Whitelaw Reid is also sur
prising even hitherto warm admirers
by the dignity and ea1nestness of his
public utterances. Contrasting the
two parties Mr.. Reid saysmost,h appi-
ly:
1--WE do not need to turn our faces,
even in Renaissance, to the past. We
may leave out OF the discussion the
whole history OF the Republican party
which is through thirty years one Of
the most glorious and the most pros
porous period Of the Republic. We
may even overlook the record of the
Democratic party for the same time
arecord which they are about to con-
slider unkind and umfriendly to men,
ton. We need only to fix attention
upon the policy for the future, which
they have at least openly and manful-
ly avowed, to insure their renewed de-

Fearful Explosion OF Gasoline Gas .,
Yankton, 8. d.

Fearful Explosion OF Gasoline Gas 1t
Yankton, g. II.
Yankton, s. D.. Oct. 4.-Char;es Win
chester. proprietor of small hotel in this
city. was burned to death by an explosio.
o fgasoline to-day. He was sprinkling gas
oline on the floor of e small room to exter-
inmate bed bugs. The room adjoined the
hotel kitchen, and the explosive vapor
generated IN the room pervaded the kitcl.
en-. where q gasoline stove was burning.
The atmosphere in the kitchen first took
fire, and the flames rushed to the sinai;
room. An explosion followed, and q few
seconds a terward Winchester ran rom the
hotel into the open air with every particle
of his clothing burned away, his hair gone
and his own flesh actually s%moulderine.
Every particle OF his body was burned to q
bleeding blister. and he eandeavored to find
relief by jumping into a tub of swill and
then rolling in the dust. He had inhaled
burning gasoline, and early in the evening
died.

Here is the Republican policy of
protection summed up in a nut
shell by Governor Mckinley. "The
things that we cannot make for our.
selves or produce for ourselves we
must buy elsewhere, and therefore,
we want no tax upon them, but the
things we can produce among oursel-
yes and for ourselves, it is economy
for our people to buyfrome each other,
and if the foreign producer wants to
enjoy any part Of this market he
must be sub ject to the terms we shall
tax in the interesto of our own country
men first. That Is the principle Of
protection. That is the doctrine Of
our country first and our countrymen
first. That is the principle OF nome
and family. That is the doctrine OF
true Americanism."

So good a Democratic authoritv q

So good a Democratic authority as
the N. Y. Times commends President
Harrison in the following words:
The prompt and intelligent action
OF President Harrison with the object
of protecting the country from the
Importation of disease by sea has
been received with unanimous an.
prevail in the United States, and is
the cause of some envy on the other
side of the ocean. It is found that
the Constitution and laws of the
United States, which many of our
English critics are prone to look up
on as loose and 1abby, because they
do not provide a central authority
with the unlimited power enjoyed by
Parliament, are capable when ad.
ministered with energy and good
sense, of accomplishing more than the
Enplish system can do.

Labor bay Arrangeme m is.

At the regular weekly meeting of the
Labor day committees at Killers hall
last night good attendance from both
Moline and Davenport was present, and
the reports from the different committees
show that the work of making srrange>
ments for an elaborate observance of the
day here is getting along in very grati>
fying manner. A uniform rate OF one
and one-third fare has been secured on
all railroads and as the event has been
thoroughly advertised throughout the sur
roundingcountry much larger crowd than
has ever before attended is expected. Com
mit,ees were B appointed to visit the
owners of factories and mills and ask
them to close down on that day so as 10
allow their employees to take part in the
celebration. All business men and fac
tories are requested to take part in the
parade and people living along the line
of march can show their appreciation or
the workingman's holiday Dy decorating
their homes for the occasion. 1t will
probably eclipse anything in this line
heretofore attempted.

Nov. 8.
A meeting was held Thursday evening
at the rooms of the Cleveland
and Stevenson club, snd fam
beau club formed. in the title of
which Congressman Cable was fittingly
honored. The meeting was called to
order by Hon. G. w. Vinton. who stated
the purpose OF the gathering. Mr.. Vim
ton acted as temporary chairman. and
Henry Cooper as temporary secretary,
until the permanent officers could be
chosen. A paper was produced. and be-
tween so and 40 of those present enrolled
their names as members of the proposed
f1ambeau club. Permanent officers for tie
organization were then chosen as fol-
lows:
President-Max Kohn.
Vice. resident-Wesley Giles.
Treasurer-HenrY Lunt.
Secretsry-Henry Cooper.
The president on motion was author
lied to appoint two committees. one on
uniforms and one on resolutions, to re-
port at the next meeting. President
Kohn selected as follows:
Uniforms-W T. Robb. Lou Rose.
Chris Peters.
Resolutions-M j. McEniry, Wesley
Giles. G. W. Vinton.
A number of samples Of uniforms were
exhibited, those most favored being
light in color and white soldier caps, the
ornaments and trimmings being very
tasty.
Speeches were made by Messrs. M. J.
McEniry and George W. Vinton. and an
adjournment taken until next Tuesday
evening at the auditorium in Moline.
The democrats of Black Hawk held
their caucus at Milan last evening and

THEY DON'T LACK NERVE.

Rock Island N OIine and Rockford
Piurkiiy Staying TO the End-Not 8
Of tn Game.
The home team left over the c., NJ &
st. p. this morning for Rockford-nine
men being all that went along. Bart
son, McGuirk and Zais did not 60, and
are now probably released for not re-
porting. The team plays there sll next
week. and the week after will be at home.
Nearly all the members of the old Jol-
let club have secured new berths. Nc
Wicker Hofer and Mahoney are the only
ones still in doubt as to their nav fields
of labor. The Southern league has cap-
tured all the men so far. Murray and
Jones go to Atlanta. Ga, having re-
ceived an advantageous offer from that
point. Sharpe, Fisher and Weihl have
already left for Montgomery. Carroll
and Donnelly go to Macon and Nichol-
son to Chattanooga.
If there is a league anywhere in this
vicinity next ye1r, then surely Rock ISL
and-Moline and Rockford ought to be in
it, Such pluck as is being displayed by
the management of both teams speaks
volumes for the cities they represent
The Register Gazette is wrong in stat
ing that Rock Island is supporting the
club alone. The Moline fans are very
enthusiastic and doing their share, and
both cities want to see a league next
year. Rockford Star.
The Rockford Star also has the follow
ing concerning the late Secretary Nc
Caull:
McCaull is the alleged secretary of the
league, but he talks as if his entire du-
ties were centered in the Joliet club. 1t
may be impossible for the schedule to be
finished. but in any event the remaining
clubs will see that Joliet does not get
back the $500 guarantee. If McCaull
has already returned it he will have to
get 1t back some way or trouble will be
made him. There was no agreement
made at the league meeting of July 10,
that the season was to last but four
weeks longer.

was nearly killed by being knocked down

met with another misfortune yesterday
evening that will effect him for some time
to come Blanchard is quite thrifty and
had invested his summers earnings in a
house boat, which he had built just be-
low the water works building. 1t has just
been completed and he had moved. and
last night on returning from trip down
town he discovered it to be fire. Ban-
chard made an effort to save at least his
clothing. but the fire was under too great
a Roadway and he found 1t impossible to
save any of his belongings. A still alarm
was turned into Che fire department
which responded in excellent time, but
were only needed in keeping the fire from
cars near by. The loss will not be much.
but it falls heavy on Blanchard, who
seems to be particularly unfortunate.

A moment later Davidson heard
the splashing of horses in Saltwater
Ford. Melinda, coming in from the

Loomis sat and smoked by the big
fireplace, and the children went to

The round of the season went on.
Travellers from the mines stopped as
of old at the Loomis cabin to share

old man fought grizzlies to save his

Is about as useless a task as
attempting to salt butter with
a salt that is all lost in the
butter-working. Ashton's Salt
with its natural grain mot too
fne), is not open to this OBJ
lection. 1t is almost COM
pletely absorbed by the butter
and adds its own weight to
the product, so that the butter
maker who uses it, gets the
price of butter for his salt,
which costs about one cent
per pound. For Cheese it is
the best. The strength and
purity of Ashton's Salt are too
we'll known to admit of ques-
