The performance of this nature by

tonishing to all, yet the species of by
pocrisy exhibited in this instance was
but of piece with the local admins

The republicans of Rock Island.

The foregoing candidates. all repub-
licans, were successful at the polls in
Rock Island yesterday.
The outcome of the city and town
ship election in the off year in munic-
ipal politics of two years ago, when
the democrats swept everything be-
fore them, was reversed in the off
year election of yesterday by the re-
publicans winning practically the
same kind of victory. When it was
that the republicans were expending
every effort all over the city to be
successful in the opening election of
the presidential year. it is not sur
prising that they should have sue
ceeded. in a measure at least, in a city
whose normal condition is republican
by at least eight hundred. There
were, nevertheless, many surprises to
those unfamiliar with the influences
that were worked into the election in
some of the wards. 1t was known
that the McConochie administration
was particularly interested in the
Fifth, and that every power in
it's control was being turned
loose there in favor of the mayor
man, Robbins. 1t was generally un-
derstood that in all the wards, except,
perhaps, in the Sixth, the municipal
administration was putting forth a
quiet but effective effort to line up the
republican candidates. But it was
not supposed that such extremes
would characterize the day as
were resorted to in the Fourth ward,
where, through misrepresentation on
the part of the head of the police de-
partment, influences that are readily
prejudiced were turned against the
democratic aldermanic candidate.

sItion.
THE ARGUS this morning inter-
viewed, the managers of the packet in
terests afffe cting Rock Island. with ref
erence to the suggestion appearing in
last nights ARGUS looking to a posi-
BILE solution of the river front ware
house problem. This suggestion, it
will be remembered. involved the pos
sibility of the packet companies, or
some of them, joining in proposition
to erect warehouse, and giving to the
city free an interest equal to that of
each of the companies, for the privilege
of erecting the building, the city to
remain in control of the building, but
only to interfere in case of dispute on
any question affecting the conduct of
the same, or of river commerce in
general, and conditional that no other
warehouse be permitted on the levee,
and that all other steamboat compa-
MES be permitted to make terms with
those in control under the agreement.

Capt John Streckfus, of the
Acme Packet company, said:
Il approve of the SUI question
thoroughly. am for anything
that will adjust the matter.
You will find me there read to
do my part in hel ping the city
to solve the warehouse prob
lem in manner that will safe
guard all interests"
Carnival City Packet Company.
Capt w. A Blair, of the Car
nival City Packet company,
said: II think The ARGUS is
right in opposing the Civ
ing to any particular COM
pany special privileges on the
levee. That would be catering
to selfish interests and would
be unfair to the steam boats in
general, under any circum-
stances. | appreciate The AR
GUS position fully and COM
mend it as to the proposition
for all the companies to go
jointly into plan for the erec-
ton of a warehouse. l APP
prove of it. but do not exactly
favor the city having an inter-
est in it, as that might tend to
complicate it. | think the city
should either build and own
the warehouse or the steam
boat companies should all own
it. At all events, no company
should be dependent upon the
disposition of any of the 9TH
ers."

within the small radius where he hunt
ed no less than seven big bull moose. This,
and what he learned from other sources,
convinced him that moose are at least hold
ing their own, and that there Is not at the
present time, at least. any call for continu-
not quite so sure about, although he is con-
fident that the reported scarcity of that
animal in almost every section of the state
is not due to their being killed off. Where
he camped. and where he has camped be-
fore many times, he noted a falling off.
both in. the number of deer killed and seen
and in signs. He talked the matter over
with experienced guides and woodsmen, and
they, almost 10 a man, attributed 1T to
scarcity Of feed In other words, the re-
markable increase of deer the past ten
years has about exhausted the supply Of
moss and greens upon which deer are wont
to feed almost exclusively, and they have
dropped further back into the woods, where
the supply is fresh.
Weren't you afraid Of being shot while
in the woods?" was one question fired at
the returned hunter. Not Bit" was the
quick reply. "At least. not by my own
guide. In the first place. knew my man
and he knew me We were familiar with
each others habits, and knew the other
would not fire at a sound a shadow.
And then when we separated we kept the
directions agreed upon, and did not cross
each others line of fire. But, speaking of
this shooting epidemic, / think there is
some virtue in the suggestion that hunters
wear a hat or some piece of clothing of a
bright color which cannot be mistaken by
a hunter no matter how excitable he may
be. If a man then puts a bullet through
scarlet cap or sky blue coat, he may be
made to suffer for criminal carelessness.
think there are times when a guide Is not
called upon to carry rifle. He IS hired to
show his sportsman his game and not to
shoot it."

NatiOns' War Chests.
From the London Mail.


A source of amazement to continental
politicians is the facility with which Great
Britain obtains the money to carry on the
South African campaign. Even our sever
est critics acknowledge that In no other
country could the many millions already
voted have been obtained SO readily.
This Is all the more wonderful to them
when they remember that in the sense they
understand 1t England has no war chest to
fall back upon. The explanation is simple
enough. England. being the richest coun-
try In the world, her credit stands high,
and she Is able to raise vast sums at a mo-
ment's notice.
The case Is different in France. where
they have something like seventy million
pounds worth of gold and fifty million
pounds worth of silver ready for war time.
The Austro-Hungarian Bank possesses
about EDO, 600, 600 for a like purpose, while
Germany clings to the old-fashioned sys-
tenn Of maintaining an actual war chest.
containing f6.OOO.OOO, at the fortress Of
Spandau. 1t is also estimated that Russia
has ready at least f1OO. 100000.
Financially Europe Is preparing for the
day that pessimistic prophets say Is draw
ing nigh-the day when wild war shall run
riot throughout the eastern hemisphere.
There is at least f155, 000, coo waiting for the
time when the war clouds shall gather, and
in a great war it Is tolerably certain 1t
would all be spent.
