AClvIc FEDERATION.
Prospect OF One Being Formed In Rock
Island.

Prospect OF Ono Being Formed In Rock
Island.
The movement such as il headed
by DR.. Parkhurst in New York and
the Civic Federation in Chicago look
ing toward reform in municipal gov
ernment-has reached Rock Island,
and q civic federation is to be organ
lied here as described by one OF the
leaders to unite into one non-politi-
cal, non-sectarian center all the
forces that are laboring to advance
our municipal. philanthropic, indus
trial and moral interests, and to
serve as a medium of acquaintance
and sympathy between persons who
reside in the different parts of the
city, who pursue different vocations,
who are by birth Of different nation
alities, who profess different creeds
or no creed. who for any of these rea-
nevertheless have similar interests
in the well being of our city, and
who agree in the wish to promote
every kind Of municipal welfare.
Steps Being Taken.
Already an informal meeting has
been held, the movement so far be-
ing in the hands of Aid. G. W. Foss,
of the Seventh ward. In speaking
on the subject, petition in circula-
ton. signed by many citizens, says:
Lyman j. Gage, president Of the
Civic Federation, OF Chicago, has
aptly outlined the purposes of such
declarations. He says: 1t is the aim
of the federation to bring into CO.
ordination those social and moral
forces that make for the common well
fare. 1t purposes to quicken and
deepen in the minds of all our citi-
Zens a conviction of their duties to
the civic whole. To this end it will
endeavor to spread better knowl-
edge of our municipal organization.
how it is operated. and how, by the
inattention and neglect OF the voter,
it becomes corrupted. extravagant
and wasteful. 1t will encourage at
tendance at the primaries and the
selection of good candidates for
office. In short, it will reassert the
principle that the people as the
sovereign are entitled to honest and
faithful service from their servants.
1t viii repudiate the proposition that
municipal agencies representing all
the people. paid for their services by
taxes levied upon all. have a right to
use the power and influence thus de-
rived to promote the political for
tunes of any set of individuals or any
party. The Civic Federation is alb
solutely non-partisan in all its the
] cries and plans OF action, and it will
frown down all attempts. if such be
made. to pervert its actions to the
advantage of any political party.
The idea of the Civic Federation is,
primarily, an educational one. II
invites the cooperation of all socie-
ties and organizations. regardless oi
party or sect, in its efforts to raise
the standard and ethics of municipal
life"
A meeting for organization will bs
held in the near future.

LABOR ACTING.
Various Unions Approving Of
the Carpenters Resolution.
OPPOSED TO PUBLIC SNAPS.

They Arc After Chairman Collins. II It
Don't do Any Good. and All the Labor
Organizations Are Likely to be Heard on
the Subject.
As fast as the monthly meetings
OF the various trades and labor
unions are held, the resolutions
adopted by the Carpenters and Join
ers' association at the mass meeting
recently held at Killers hall pro-
testing against the board of super
visors engaging Chairman S. j. Col
Inns, of the republican county COM
mittee, in connection with the court
house plans are being endorsed and
the board will hear the voice of labor
on the subject, even if Mr.. Collins
particular friends on the building
committee in their extreme devotion
to him have seen fit to ignore all that
has been done so far.
A Union Man's Views.
1--WE are not directing to Mr.. Col
Inns on the score of his politics, or his
official standing politically" said a
leading labor union man conversing
with an ARGUS representative. sMr.
Collins has shown himself to be the
bitter, unreienting foe of organized
labor. Now we do not object to a
man who does not employ union la
Dor, but to a man who on any and all
occasions fights union labor, dis
eliminates against it and has put
himself ont to antagonize us and do
us injury because we are union men,
we feel we have a just grievance.
We are not opposing Mr.. Collins be-
cause of his convictions on the labor
question whether favorable or preju-
dicial to labor's interest that it is
his privilege. But we naturally re-
sent a man who is organized Ia
boris steadfast foe. We have asked
the board not to recognize a man who
is so obnoxious to the organized
labor classes, and we are more deter
mined now to present our most Wig
orous protest in view of the snap
that MIR. Collins appears to have with
some of the committee in being Sc
lected, despite all that has been said.
Union labor is opposed to snaps in
any FORM"
Stirred Up q Whirlwind.
The defiant attitude of MIR. Collins
friends in the building committee
has, it may be added, stirred up a
whirlwind that is not confined to the
ranks of the labor unions. People
regardless of politics have been heard
to express their disapproval of the
manner in which the chairman's par
ticular friends have succeeded in
working him into position. espec
tally at this stage of the proceedings
where the county will be obliged tc
pay for his services.
The committee expected to reacl
home tonight from its jaunt, but il
is understood now that in order tC
complete its trip, it will not be bacl
until Monday or Tuesday.
