HASTEN THE BROTHER.
HOOD OF MAN.

Noy Niiiam Jennings Bryan.)
There are many reforms which
hole to see realized during the new
century. ] suggest q question which
ought to receive more attention during
the coming century than it has during
the last few years, namely: How can
the coming of the brotherhood of man
be FASTENED by those who acknowledge
the Fatherhood of God? Love of God
can best be shown by the exhibition
of brotherly love broad enough to
include all of Gods creatures. The
Bible denounces as liar the man who
says that he loves God and yet hates
his brother.
/ can conceive of no greater reform
than that which would apply the elev-
enth commandment: Thou shalt love
thy neighbor as myself" to all phases
OF human experience. II would put an
end to injustice. whether practiced on
a small scale by individuals or on a
large scale through the operation Of
bad laws.

of that measure have their blood

hundreds of millions in conquest; the
American people would be gratined to
see it give few millions in charity to
relieve such unspeakable suffering.

People who had doubted that the

In textile industries than centuries pre-

in the British Parliament that thirty

machinery, what would have required

THE PAPER TRUST.
(Pittsburg Post.)

Paper of the kind used in books and
newspapers Is no longer imported. The
duty is absolutely prohibitory. 1t is.
on the contrary, exported in consider
able and profitable amounts. The
American makers not only supply the
home market entirely and ship their
products to Australia and Japan to
compete with the foreign manufacture
ers, but they actually compete in the
markets of Great Britain with the
British, Swedish and German manu-
facturers. How large is the business
done with foreign countries is shown
by the statistics given in the report of
the bureau just published for the ten
months ending with October. Last
year the exports OF printing paper for
these ten months were 7SS21 ,4i5
pounds; this year the same exports
were %. 2l3,77l pounds.

The Position of the Germans.

In 1896 Carl Schurz made speeches
for Mckinley, but now he says he will
support Bryan for the presidency.
Also comes the statement from Os-
wald Ottendorfer that between Bryan
and Mckinley he will advocate the
cause of Bryan. and will vote for him
for president. MIR. Ottendorfer is one
of the leading German-American citi-
zeus of the United States, is editor of
the New York Stats Zeitung. and is
very influential in German and indie
pendent circles. He opposed Mr..
BRYAN in 1896. Among other things
he now says: Il am convinced that
thousands and thousands of voters
who four years ago preferred Mckin-
lev to Bryan are now ready to prefer
Bryan to Mckinley" Mr.. Ottendorf-

CONDITION OF THE CROPS.
Farming Operations Carried on With
Great Activity.

Farming Operations Carried on With
Great Activity.
Except in a few northern counties,
farming operations in Illinois have
been carried on during the past week
with great activity, the weather be-
ing very favorable for farm work and
the ground in excellent condition for
blowing and planting. The weather
was cool the first part of the week,
but grew unseasonably warm toward
its end. There has been a decided
lack of rain, except in a few southern
counties. and the soil is unusually
dry for this season of the year. The
condition of wheat. though generally
fair, and in some places very fine, has
deteriorated since March, principally
because of dry weather. Rye is gen
orally in somewhat better condition
than wheat. Grasses are backward
in starting because of the lack of
moisture and of the continuance of
cool weather until early in April. and
considerable clover has been winter
killed. In some counties meadows
are doing we'll. Rain is needed to
start pastures. The sowing of oats
is in progress in the northern district,
in the central district 1t IS well adj
yanced and in the southern district it
is almost entirely completed. few
reporters state that the oats are al
ready coming up and are growing
nicely. Early potatoes are being
planted and gardening has begun
over the greater portion of the state.
In the southern district great deal
of this work has been done. Flowing
for corn has begun in the central and
southern districts, and at some places
in the south planting has begun.
Fruit generally promises well. The
prospect for peaches has greitly i'm
proved since March, damage to them
being reported from but few counties.
A few reporters state that strawber-
ries are injured. From some parts
of the central and southern districts
early blossoming fruits are reported
as already beginning to show blooms.

Il consider hamberlain's Cough

Warrington, England. 1T has saved
my wife's life, she having been a
martyr to bronchitis for over six
years, being most of the time con-
lined to her bed. She is now quite
we'll" 1t is great pleasure to
the manufacturers of Cham berlain' S

testimonials of this character. They
show that great good is being done,
pain and suffering relieved and valu-
able lives restored to health and hap
piness by this remedy. 1t is for sale

TrI-CIty Unison.

The idea of singleness of purpose
and unity of action in the tri-cities is
one that The ARGUS has always up
held. Concerted. organized effort is
always productive of desired results
in any proper undertaking, and where
that effort is attended and sustained
by the spirit of mutual good will and
uniform friendliness. born of COM
mon aim. a well developed public
spirit, and a patriotic devotion to
home institutions and a righteous
pride in them, success is certain.
1t is on this principle that The
ARGUS has advocated cOnsolida-
ton between Rock Island and Moline,
holding as it does to the conviction
that such policy would involve the
best interests of both cities. 1t would
give to this section the third city of
Importance and population in the
state of Illinois, and then with the
bonds strengthened with the city that
stands high up in the scale of Iowa
cities, the locality would wield an in
fluence that cannot be estimated in all
matters affecting the great Rock ISL
and arsenal. the Hennepin canal and
all matters that appeal alike to each
of the present cities.
Last night at Armory hall. business
and professional men of the three
cities gathered about the festive
board, feasted and made merry and
gave expressions of good will, good
fellowship and a common purpose. 1t
was one of the most significant
gatherings of the kind since the
old Rock Island Citizens Improvement
association. the body of business men
that started Rock Island on its onward
march, and furnished the impetus
for the sister cities, entertained
the tri-city business organizations
at the Harper house in honor OF the
completion of the Rock Island via
duct. Last night under the auspices
of the Rock Island Club and the Dav-
export and Moline Business Mems
associations the three cities again
Joined hands.
May the evidence of renewed tidel-
ity to each other. and the promise of
greater energy toward L single end,
be shown in good works, and in a full
rea lization of the highest ambition of
every public spirited and loyal citi-
zen.
