A PRBPosTERoUs SUGGESTION.

Our city is peopled by a majority of
those self styled patriots who think
they are the government, it's morality,
its principles all, yet we have listened
in vain for II hint TO arrange for any
character of reception in honor of the
return of Charley Jackson of Co. NJ
LIST South Dakota Vols. He made Il
good record i'll the best regiment v
sent out by ur government, received
an honorable discharge and is with us
to remain for a short time. What's
the matter with the im~perialistic Han
nocrats of our city?-Times Herald.
In all friendliness the STAR desires
to call attention to the foregoing arti-
Gle, because of its unreasonable criti-
cism of a majority of our people.
Though a majority of the people
of Hot Springs doubtless are republic
cans, they have never given cause for
anyone to accuse them of thinking
that they are the "whole thing" that
''they are the government, its morality,
it's principles ALL" There are no evil
dences that a majority of the people of
t lis city are SO bigoted as that. They
seem to lie Il pretty level headed and
reasonable sort of people, willing to
give and take; willing to concede that
others have rights to their opinions.
| There is no evidence that the majority
of the people of Hot Springs have vel
attempted to prevent the minority
from giving "a reception to anyone they
might pick ont-whether it be Bryan.
Charley jackson or Gov. Lee. The
majority" of the people of Hot Springs
did not prevent the minority from Civ
ing Col. Bryan and Gov. Lee Il very
cordial and hearty public reception
upon their visits here, nor would the
majority" have prevented the minor
ity flom ARRANGING for any character
of reception in honor of the return of
Chas. II. jackson of Co. NJ LIST s.. ID.
Vols.," who has admittedly done fan.
more to deserve some public demon
stration than either Bryan or Lee.
But all this is connecting loyalty and
patriotism with politics-a thing that
should not be. We have simply car
ried out the idea to show the absurd
ity of our esteemed contemporary sug-
costing that the smajority'' political
party-the republican party-should
have arranged" Il reception for Mr..
jackson. That would have been the
height of improperly and shown a
woeful lack of patriotic pride in the
valiant services rendered by Charley
jackson, such as certainly would not
have been appreciated by him, or any
thinking person. A reception to re-
turning volunteer soldiers that is not
above "party," or above politics GER
tainly lacks that patriotic spirit which
becomes q good American citizen.
There has recently developed too
much politics, as evidenced in the ar
ticle reprinted above, in connection
with receiving the brave boys from the
Philippines. Though the republicans
("the imperialistic Hannocrats" as
some are delighted to term the una
jority" of Hot Springs people) are glad
at all times to show there appreciation
and admiration for such brave fight
ers as Charley jackson, it is no more
their place to ''arrange" a reception
than it is for the followers of the fret
silver phantom. 1t would truly b,
bad taste in either to make such
move-as Il party.

Passing of Levi Rogers.

The death of Levi Rogers, of South
Rock Island, yesterday, as briefly
mentioned in last nights ARGUS. re-
moves from the community an inter-
esting typical colored southerner.
While his friends believed him much
older, Mr.. Rogers insisted that his
age was 65. Neuralgia of the
stomach was the cause of his death.
Born in Barn county, Kentucky, he
eventually drifted north, and when
the civil war broke out, Joined the
Union army. He is survived by his
wife and two sons, the latter residing
in the south. Probably there is not a
colored man in Rock Island
better liked by the whites as we'll as
his own people than Mr.. Rogers. He
was great lover of children, to whom
he delighted in relating the stories of
the cabin and the plantation, and was
known to have frequently plucked a
watermelon from his garden and
carved it and divided it am ong the little
ones, "jest to make 'em happy" as he
would say. The funeral will be held
at 100 clock tomorrow morning from
the Second Baptist church.

Little Girl,s narrow Escape.

A little daughter of William Ecker
mann met with a narrow escape while
riding her bicycle along Second ave-
nue. between Sixteenth and Seven
teenth streets yesterday afternoon.
By one of those unaccountable shoots
which wheel will sometimes take,
the little lady was thrown with her
wheel directly under the heels of a
horse owned by c. A. Benkert. of
Davenport, and which was tied on the
south side of the avenue. The horse
plunged forward when the girl and
wheel struck his heels, and would
have kicked the child to death, but
for the coming on the scene of the
horses master, one word from whom
quoted the animal until the girl
could be released and then the wheel
was taken out. The girl was not in
iured in the least and her bicycle was
not damaged, but the incident served
to illustrate in a most happy and
fortunate sense the advantage of COM
plete control over an intelligent
animal.

/ And Urge an Immediate Decision by the
Secretary OF War Upon the Report of
| the Arsenal Trouble Prepared by Capt
| Russen-Davenport Business Men Not
to Participate In Controversy.
Charles Hussey and f. c. Berry,
representing the Tri-City Machinists'
| union, called upon Congressman G..
w. Prince at his home in Galesburg
last night, and after a conference last
| ing two hours, the latter promised to
90 to Washington at his earliest con-
venience and in conjunction with
Congressman j. K. Lane. of Daven-
port, urge upon the secretary of war
the desirability for an immediate
decision upon the report submitted
to him by Capt. G. H. Russell bear
ing on the arsenal difficulties. Messrs.
Hussey and Berry also met with the
executive committee of the Galesburg
Trades and Labor assembly and were
assured of the cooperation of that body
in the machinists' cause.
Davenport Not to Interfere.
Master Machinist James O'Connell
last night appeared before the Dav-
export Business Mems association
in behalf of the arsenal employees
who are out on n strike, and
asked the support of that organiza-
ton in seeking verdict from the
secretary of war without further de-
Law. A resolution offered by A. p. Me-
Guirk, setting forth that the association
favor speedy settlement of the diff
Guilty on the island at as early date
as consistent with good government
and the interests of employees, was
tabled. Judge Nathaniel French said
that the request of the machinists
was coupled with threat. not only to
call general strike. but to close the
arsenal, and he did not think it wise
for the association to become involved
in the controversy. +. NJ. Sharon
stated that the interests of the tri-
cities and the ARSENAL demanded that
work 90 on there without interruption
by a misunderstanding between the
commandant and the men.
Mr.. O'Connell, at the conclusion of
the Davenport meeting. came to Rock
Island. where he held a conference
with machinists and others at the In
dustrial Home, leaving on midnight
train for Chicago, whence he goes on

Plans were taken in hand at two
different meetings in Rock Island last
evening looking TO the proper observ-
ance of the Fourth of July. 1t is to
be an Odd Fellows celebI alton, and it
is hoped to make it of the good old
fashioned kind, to properly comment
crate the first Independence day after
the close of the war which was waged
in the name of independence and for
its cause. Rock Island lodge. IS, l.
o. .. f. outlined the plans for a gen.
eral celebration on grounds to be Sc
lected by the Rock Island Retail Mer-
chants association, and the latter or
ganization adopted measures with the
idea of providing suitable grounds and
decorations. 1t is proposed that while
the Odd Fellows will conduct the cele-
bration, it will be of a general and
pa triotic nature. Cantons and lodges
are to he invited from points in Hi
nois and Iowa within a radius of 80
miles of Rock Island. There is to be
a grand Odd Fellows parade in the
early afternoon of the Fourth, in
which it is anticipated 5000 men will
maj ch. Thea will follow the picnic,
at which sui stantial and attractive
prizes will be offered for the lodge
having the largest number of
men in line, for the best appearing
canton, for the best band, ETC., while
premiums will be offered such as will
induce variety of interesting sports
and competitive drills and other at
fractions at the grounds.
Grand Master is Expected.
The Illinois grand master of the
order of Odd Fellowship will, it is ex-
pected, be here to deliver the grafton.
Excursion rates will be secured, if
possible, on the various roads running
into Rock Island, and an endeavor
will be made to bring to the city
10, 600 people on Independence day.
To carry out all these plans success
fully. funds will be necessary, but as
Rock Island has never failed to sus-
tain any patriotic or public spirited
undertaking creditably and literally,
no fear is felt but that the committee
will receive the proper encouragement
when it goes about its work.
