pears that while he improved, it was
only temporary, and his condition

the National Cracker com psny's
plant in this city, q position he had
held for years. He had a wide circle OF
ac9uaintances, was Of a happy, con.
genial disposition, and his demise
will cause general sorrow. while the
sympathy Of all will 90 o1t to his

coNslsTENcY's CHARM

Uaion Displays . Fine Example Of % IN
DAseussing Repoblisaa Candidates.
The Union Of this morning pre-
sents one Of those ediiying samples
OF consistency, for which it is
famous. Seeing. as it supposes, q
chance to make political capital out
Of the new orders providing for rush
work at Rock Island arsenal, it pro-
ceeds to expatiate on the advantages
OF . home con FRESHMAN, and to laud.
William Payne, Offering as an ex.
cuse for 80 doing, the announcement
that c. j. Searle and Mr.. PAYNE
wrote to Senators Cullom and
Mason OF the status Of a.
fairs at the arsenal few
days ago and that accordingly all
things came out oil right. 1t is not
sought here to detrsct from the rapid
return from the good work that may
have come from the political efforts
OF Searle or Payne, but 1t is only
right to say that TIE ARGUS had not
only sgitated the island situation but
had stirred 1t up in Washington
through several representatives. in
both houses there for several weeks
before the Union woke up,
or that Searle or Payne we're
constrained to communicate with
Washington.
But to the consideration of the
Unions position of this morning. The
burden of the article in question is
while attributing all that has been
accomplished to Searle, to elaborate
on the benefits of a strictly home
congressman at Washington. Yet in
the same connection it hastens to
commit itself absolutely to the out
OF town candidate for the state SEN
ate, Payne. While showing in one
breath, or attempting to show, what
Searle, Q Rock Island man. has done
and could do for Rock Island, il
seeks to have Payne. an out-of-town
man. share in what Searle has done.
In other words, the benefits Of hav-
ing Q strictly Rock Island man at
Washington, are not applicable To the
home man idea at Springfield. This
will be food for thought that contin.
gent Of republicans who would like
Rock Island city for the first time in
a quarter Of a century or more to
have q senator at Springfield.
There are reasons why the Union
should not look longer with favor
on Prince. and there might have been
circumstances wholly within the con-
troll OF Prince why the Union would
never have thought Of the home con.
gresham idea, or of Searle. Blu,
why the committsl to Payne? Why
the studied snub Of McCabe, or Is he
not still in the ring? Is the an.
nouncement column the whole kew
to the situation. and il 60 is a con.
tract for space there the essential tc
warm up the McCabe boom with Q
pleasant smile?
