TIE King of Belgium is the most liberal and
best loved monarch in Europe, and has long
held position different from that of other
soyerecns. 1t il announced that If the re-
forms which are now proposed to make 10 Its
constitution are carried out it will be one Of
the freeest countries in the world. Not only
is it proposed TO establish universal sui
frage. but also 10 institute what IS known
az the referendum system. This con-
ssts N submitting 10 tho popular

necessary TO have some regulation to this APP

says that 30 long as the Belgaus have so good

himself to DO there is no danger of this

and somewhat dangerous experiment IN gov
eminent TO inject such scheme into the
constitution of a monarchy
WE have no intention whatever of interior
Ing with or hurrying up the Governor in the
matter of the appointment of senator. But
if the appointment Is DELAYED much longer
there will be so many candidates backed
up by 80 many friends that His Elk

by such display OF senatorial riches. Be-
sides this. the late Cleyeland-Hill fractional
fight would be nothing TO the senatorial strug-
gle as producer OF heart-burnings and dis
appointment if the excitement over 1t Is per-
mitted TO wax much hotter.

WHAT good does Protection do anyhow?
One of the chief things claimed for it is that
il keeps up wages. Now II there Is anything
in the United States thoroughly and unneces-
sarily protected 1t is the tin-plate industry.
and yet the Chicago tin and sheet-iron work
ers have struck for eight hours day and a
minimum wages of thirty five cents an hour
If tho Mckinley law did what 1t promised
these tin and sheet-iron workers would be
making so much money that they never could
have gotten up any pretext for striking.

was delegate to the Episcopal conyen-

cluded its session at Davenport yesterday,
is The guest of Rock Island friends today.
Last evening he was rendered supper by
MAI Mackenzie. ex-Mayor Henry Carse,
Messrs. John Crubaugh, John Ohlweiler,
Charles Case aud others. This morning
Mr.. Ayers called at THE ARGUS office.
He is democrat politically and one of
the most pronounced type and one of
the representative members of the party,
in Iowa and delegate from the First
district to the Chicago convention. In
conversation on national politics and
presidential preferences, he said:
IL am great admirer of Grover Cleve-
land. happened to be mayor of Keo.

change came into possession of his mes
sage. The individuality OF theman
could be seen in that message. watched
his course as governor and as presiden;
| and found much to commend and very
little to condemn in all of it. Mr. Cleve-
land has been honored and he has hon
ored the democratic party.
But l want to assure you. that the
one man whose chance of election is hes,
in the national contest this year is Hor-
ace Boies. He has done what Grover
| Cleveland failed to do. He has carried
Iowa twice with his own name at the
head of the ticket, and he has very largely
helped in increasing the Iowa delegation
in congress from one to six members
The time has come for a western demo
crat to occupy the White house. and con.
| spicnously Gov. Boies is the one man II
do it. Without a doubt, he can carry
both Iowa and New York.
while am in favor of Horace Boie,
for president. and have no second choice
am decidedly opposed to favoring hin
for the vice presidency. Iowa will relin
| quish its claims on account of the presi
dency, but the delegation to Chicago vii
| never allow the name of Boies to bt

OHMS' PRACTICES.
How the Defra uding Secretary of tn e
Y.M.C.A Behaved in Davenport,

How the Defrauding Secretary of the
NC. A. Behaved in Davenport,
The Davenport Tribune, OF this morn>
ing, has the following concerning the OPP
erations of Ohms, the recent jsnitor of
the local Y NJ. c. A. in that city.
About three weeks ago a young man
and his wife registered at the Commercial
house, corner of Perry and Third streets.
as Charles Ohms and wife. The lord of
the family of two said he was the sssis-
tant secretary of the Y. M. G. A. in Rock
Island and that he and his wife would
stay with Landlord Smith for a week or
two until they could arrange to move to
Rock Island. Every day the young couple
made their regular trips to the Illinois
city and returned to the hotel for their
meals. The young wife became quite
obnoxious and insulting to the girls in the
dining room and finally the landlord was
compelled to ask them in polite way to
vacate his place of business. They said
they were unable to settle their bill, so
they tarried a while longer and MIR.
Smith a few days ago asked them to
settle. Mr.. 0hms said he would do 80 in
few days when he got draft of $500
that he was expecting from his father. A
couple of days after this the wife of the
pretended Y. NJ. G. A. secretary came to
the landlord with letter from her hus-
bands brother which said the father
would send the desired money so as to
reach them last Saturday or Monday of
this week. Tuesday evening after sup
per, es was their custom, they went 10
Rock Island and took with them their
worldly goods leaving the gas burning in
their room. They went to the Rock ISL
and house across the river and registered.
but not the same name they were known
by in Davenport. Landlord Smith tum~
bled to their little game and went over to
the Rock Island house and
found the slippery couple eat
ing breakfast before taking the early
Milwaukee train for the north. He sum-
moned an officer and persuaded the pair
to return to this side of the river. Ohms
offered SIT of the 1856 that he owed for
daily bread and yesterday all day he was
hunting up some one to lend him the re-
naming amount.
His wife was at one time in the
Orphans home in this city and the two
decevers were married about two months
ago. If the young man fails to settle his
account at the Commercial house he will
likely get about ninety days In the county
jail to think the matter over. He claims
to hail from Milwaukee.

The Springfield Gun Carriage Works
will Probably be Brought to our
Arsenal
With the appointment of Col. A. R.
Burlington to the commandancy of Rock
Island arsenal the prediction was made
by those in army circles in position to
know, that the change meant eventually
the transfer from Springfield Mass of the
mandatory of the gunfield carriages of
which Col. Burlington is the inventor, to
the arsenal here. As heretofore stated
Col. Burlington has been east on army
board duties for several days. They
met first at Springfield. and the following
special to the Chicago Tribune tells of
yesterdays proceedings.
The Gun Carriage Board has discussed
number of subjects, principally the ex-
pediency of removing the manufacture of
field-gun carriages from this city to Rock
Island, Ill. 1t is probable that by Thurs
day the board will start for Watervliet to
take up the study OF siege gun carriages,
going from there to Sandy Hook for
active experiments. The Magazine Gun
Board continued its experiments with two
guns made especially for the 30-caliber
United States cartridges.

Railroad Trafac Badly Demoralized in

SPOKANE, Wash, Dec. 26.-The storm
Of last week seriously affected railroad
travel and traffic on nearly all the rail-
way lines in Eastern Washington, North
Idaho and Montana. The Great North
ern train due here at O'Clock this
morning was 10 hours behind time, and
on that account the eastbound train to-
night was abandoned. The trouble is
occasioned by deep snow and
heavy dlifts in the Rocky mountains.
Trains are running regularly westward
on that line as far as Wenatchee. The
Northern Pacific, Union Pacific and
Spokane Northern trains, including
their branches, are now practically run
ming on time. Slow progress is made by
the Great Northern in the construction
of it's switchback over the summit oi
the Cascade mountains, butitis thought
connection will be made by January 1st
Tie ceremony of driving the golden
spike has been indefinitely postponed ir
anticipation of heavy freshets.
PORTLAND, Ore, Dec. 26.-The Unior
Pacific succeeded in lifting the blockade
on its line caused by the late snow
storm. The first passenger train, car
rying 300 passengers, arrived this morn
ing. 1t is expected that two NOR,
trains, conveying the remainder of thu
600 delayed passengers, will arrive thi
afternoon.
The Union Pacific limited fast mai
which left here at 7:30 tonight was de
rallied near Latowelle Falls, 60 mile
from this city. The engine, baggag
and express cars left the track, but a

at Kokomo, charged with bigamy.
Jones came from Portland, Ore, about
year ago, invested heavily in Kokomo
property, bought a handsome residence
and married a young wife, daughter of

arrested by an officer named Murray
from Denver, Colo, where it is charged
he has wife living. Murray came to
Kokomo with requisition properly at
tested by Governor Chase. He timed
his arrest of Jones go as to get him to
the station without giving the friends oi
the prisoner time to organize
resistance. But it happened SO
that the train was an hour
late. The sheriff was appealed to, but
he refused to allow Murray to depart
with Jones until the papers had been
passed upon by the local court. Jones
in the meantime is detained in the reel.
dence portion of the jail. He admits
having committed some indiscretions in
Denver, but pronounces his arrest fol
bigamy case of blackmail.
Last February an Oregon officer came
to Indiana with warrant for Jones on
the charge Of bigamy, but he had moi
requisition papers and Jones refused te

from the Oregon woman. The prisoner

dispatch from Topeka, Kan, saws !:
Reports received at the railroad Offices
here are that the storm extended into
Colorado and Indian territory. about
the same quantity of snow fell west as
east, but in the west the wind amounted
to gale, and in consequence the snow
drifted badly, causing great deal of
trouble in the movement OF trains. The
Santa Fe had two trains in the drifts
near Newton yesterday, but got them
out last night. Today the same road
had four trains in the drifts between
Dodge City and Cimarron. The company
has two snow plows at work, and
it is expected to open the line in
brief time. The Rock Island has two
trains in drift on it's southwestern
line and has alsoi its snow-plowe at work.
