The Two RIlly Boys.

Illinois fat and jovial senator, Billy
Mason, has struck an old friend in
Senator W. A. Clark, of Montana, who
i fighting for the seat he is said to
have bought. a Washington dis
patch tells of how the two billies re-
newed their acquaintance, as follows:
IF he gets the chance Senator
William f. Mason will vote to seat
W. A. Clark, of Montana. The gem
tleman from Illinois has not investi-
gated the charges of corruption and
he does not intend to do so. 1t makes
no difference to Senator Mason wheth-
or Clark bought his seat or stole it.
Mason has good reason for his vote.
"At the opening OF the present ses-
sion he was seated one dav at his desk
looking over a bundle of petitions in
favor of the BOer resolutions when a
pale-pink gentleman strolled over
from the democratic side of the cham
Der and paused before him. Mason
looked up and recognized the fabu-
lousy rich copper king who had been
pointed out TO him. He nodded and
received a slight inclination in return.
"'Tilly Heath wanted to be remem
bered to you began the gentleman
with tawny whiskers and flowing au-
burn locks.
Beg pardon, said Mason.
IL say, lilly wanted to be remem-
bered to you, and Mort Murphy want
ed to know if you remember when
you stole his lunch
'''Great Scott. You're not Willie
Clark
BY this time the stout member
from Illinois had elm bed out of his
chair and lodged around his desk.
You're not that little freckle-faced
rascal that used to put bent pins
The same
Clark reeled under the VIII ole
souled slap his old scLoolmate adj
ministered to his shoulder: but he
was chuckling at the others surprise.
The little red school house where
the two statesmen received their first
lessons in book learning and mischief
was at BentonspOrt, Iowa. But that
was many years ago. and Mason had
never associated the famous copper
king with old the schoolmate, nor had
Clark identified the famous Billy with
the thin and mischievous Willie
whom ne had known wears before.
OF course | will vote for you,
declared Mason AT the close of this
interview. L don't care if you
bought the whole state.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1900-02-28

The Rock Island Endorsement of Tanner.
The Endorsement by the republicans
of Rock Island county yesterday of
Gov. John K. Tanner in the same
breath in which co mmen6atory utter
ance was given OF the national admin
istration of President Mckinley and
that confidence was expressed in SEN
ator Cullom, puts the whole form of
ridiculous light. The resolutions
under such circumstance are
meaningless and insincere, consti-
tuting a mere matter of form, COM
plimentarv to none of the public
officials referred to. Although it is
not to be said that Tanner did not IN
q sense dominate the convention, SUE h
manipulation was not with the dele
gates knowledge or consent. The
astute politician WHO'S serving as the
executive of the state i neither adj
mired nor respected by the rank and
file of the party in Rock Island coun-
ty, and if through cunning conniv-
ance 4 delegation was selected at yes
terday's convention favorable to his
friend Hanecy, it was due TO superior
generalship in the contest of conven-
ton, and not because the convention
wis he'd it to be 50. But in the matter
of the passing of resolutions the dele
gates had the privilege of acting as
they saw fit, and when they permitted
the straddle that characterized the
expression they stamped that express
sion as meaningless and unworthy.
1t was but another instance of the
emptiness of promiscuous compli-
ments, significant in this case only as
another argument in support of the
assertion that it matters not to the
republican party who or what the
man IS, or what ne does or is capable
Of doing, so long as he is rePubli-
can

SHALL WE DISPUTE?
The Opinions of Scores of Our Fellow CitI

The Opinions of Scores of Our Fellow CitI-
Residents of Rock Island. like other
American citizens, if making an in
vestment, want to be sure of getting
the worth of their money. They
want TO know all the why's and where
fores, and in direct ratio to the
value of the investment they burrow
and ferret until satisfied with the col
lateral. Take an instance in the
realm of proprietary articles. If we
know of 4 friend who has been cured
we have some faith in the prepare
ton; if we know of two or three, our
faith increases. If the cures reach
scores OF all well known citizens, and
anyone who still maintains that there
is nothing beyond ordinary merit il
the said preparation can safely be left
to the care OF his fellow taxpayers. If
he wishes To quarrel with them on
the question OF their Judgment and
veracity, he has ample opportunity in
Rock Island TO do so. Begin with
:his case: Patrick Rooney, of 1909
