Rock Island Philippine Soldier Reaches
Council Bluns-A Reception In Order.
Martin II. Danielson, the Rock
Island boy who has been doing service
for his country in the Philippines,
reached Council Bluffs yesterday on
his way home. In letter received by
his father, Chris Danielson, today,
and bearing date of Council Bluffs
yesterday, Martin speaks of his ar
rival there, and states that he will
visit his aunt at Shelby county,
Iowa, and then come on home
in q few days hence. Danielson
was one of the first private citizens in
the state to volunteer for army ser
vice in the Philippines while yet the
war with Spain was in progress, and
his regular letters to THE ARGUS have
since been read with much interest.
He has seen service in the faraway ar
chipelago in all that the term implies,
and a move should be put on foot TO
accord him the public attention that
he deserves after his return to his
home in this city. No organization
could better or more appropriately
undertake this demonstration than
Company A, which so distinguished
itself in the late war.

rived home last night from Chicago.

whether the Rock Island executive
got an audience with President Nc
Kinlev and invited him to visit Rock
Island. but the mayor is scheduled to
reach home tonight, when the news
of his Chicago trip will be available.
President Mckinley is to stop at
Omaha Oct. 16 on his way east from
the Dakotas. His next stop after
Omaha is Dubuque, to reach which
place he could just as well come to
Rock Island and 60 mp over the Mil
waukee or Burlington as whizZing
across the state of Iowa by different
