a Modern Woodman.

Those who fail to see the play at
Harper's theatre, Tuesday evening, "A
Modern Woodman," will not only
miss an entertainment of superior
order but will also miss an opportu-
nifty to patronize and assist an institu-
ton that every Rock Island citizen
should be interested in. viz: The Mod
ern Woodmen of America. This is the
headquarters of the order. and if "A
Modern Woodman" proves the success
its promoters hope for, it will go
from here with the endorsement of
the head officers and be presented all
over the United States, advertising
the order and the city of Rock Island.
The play is presented under the au-
spices of the three camps of Woodmen
and the three Royal Neighbor camps
of the city. The play of ''AModern
Woodman'' is a comedy-drama of the
day, and while it touches upon the
fraternal features of the Modern
Woodman of America, it is also an in
teresting story of every day life in
this the closing of the 18th century.
The play is purely American.
Comedy, sentiment and pathos are
blended in a graphic portrait of Amer
lean life of today. There are eighteen
speaking parts in the drama, and in
the great reception scene in Act ",
which takes place at the Woodmen's
camp, mum Der of Rock Islands prom
inent singers and musicians will tale
part. Here is the program for this part

misunderstanding.

House-cleaning is duty in every
well regulated house. People don t
wait until the filth becomes painfully
apparent, but it stands to reason that
in every day use more or less dirt or
dust accumulates. 1t is so with the
human blood. From the enormous
variety of eatables taken into the
stomach. aquantity of useless material
is bound to accumulate in the blood
and clog the free and wholesome flew
in the vessels. Every person should
from time to time have ..blood-clean-

purifier is Cascarets Candy Cathartic.

adopted a year ago by the board and

Tense of its law. the board of educa-

The supervision of the county
schools the past four years has been
in the nature of an experiment. The
people will not take any more chances
on this responsible position. They
want man they knOw-and in Mr..
Addition they have the right man.
Mr.. Addition has been engaged in
educational work for upword of 20
years. His reputation in his profess
sion is established. hence it goes with
out saying that he is amply qualified
for the position of superintendent.
He is a native of Leeds, Androscog-

Isaiah b. Addition. and is graduate of

of various schools in his native state.
He came west in 1881. His first work
in this section was as teacher at Pleas

In the absence of anything else to
say against the democratic candidate
for county clerk the Union following
in the above contemptous fling. 1t
has found an answer since. While
the contrary has not developed that
he is but pattern maker, as the di-
rectorv records him-and he is the
same man-yet he has demonstrated
since this introduction which the
Union felt that it was the best, as
we'll as the worst, it could say of him
at the time. that he is a man not only
worthy of the confidence of the pub
lie. but worthy of his craft. Though
spurned because of his trade by the
republican organ. he is not in the
least ashamed of his humble position
in life, nor is he ashamed that he
is known only in the directory as "a
pattern maker at Deere & Mansur Co.'S.
-cornplanter works"
At the time the Union INDUCED in
its supposed sarcastic reference to
Mr.. Norton it was felt that time
would bring the answer, as it has.
For in his intercourse with the people
of the county in his canvass he has
demonstrated that man may he but
a pattern maker in a cornplaHter
works and vet he fit for public office;
that he may be but an honorable rep
resentative of labor. and vet be
worthy of public confidence
Thus Has Come the Answer.
Not only have Mr.. Norton's meth
DDS of campaigning, but his record as
a craftsman and a citizen have fur
nished the best answer to the Union
as to who he is-''anyway. Two
weeks ago THE ARGUS published an
extended biographical sketch of Mr..
Norton which showed that up to date
he has given about as good an account
of himself as most men of his years.
Thus has his record as mechanic,
as citizen. as a public official and in
political way emphasized the answer
which might have been given at the
time, but which has been deferred
until by his own course he could
practically reply to the Unions in
quiry of last May '--
