HIGH SCHOOL TEAMS
BEGIN SPRING WORK

Considerable interest is felt in the
two basketball games to be played at
Armory hall next Friday evening be-
tween the Rock Island High school
and Monmouth girls. and the Angus
tana Academies and the high school
boys. The high school girls have
twice defeated Moline and the Mon
mouth girls have defeated the Renas
of Augustana, so the comparative
standing of the teams who lost will
hang in q measure upon Fridays
game. The Academies claim the
Championship of the tri-cities, but the
high school boys at least propose to
keep them busy for awhile holding
their honors.
The receipts from the basketball
games are expected to go a long way
toward putting the High School Ath-
letic association on it's feet after the
severe blow it received in the loss of
all apparatus by fire. The boys had
"loosening up" baseball practice
last Saturday and as soon "a the mud
settles bit the track team will begin
to get in shape for the spring meet.

TO DISCUSS POLITICAL ISSUES

Much interest has been aroused
throughout the city by the announce
ment of mass meeting at Harper's
theatre tomorrow night to discuss the
issues of the municipal campaign and
the indications are for a crowded
house.
The meeting was arranged in order
that citizens might have an oppor-
tunity to personally hear from V. M.
Blanding, whose platform declares
for the abolition of the wine rooms,
and other leading men who realize
that the time has come for change
in the moral tone of the city.
All Are Invited.
The invitation to attend the meet
ing includes every resident of Rock
Island, mothers and fathers especi-
ally, that they may learn from the
lips of those who appreciate the
dangers of continuation of condi-
tions now existing the Importance of
placing at the head of the municipal
government one who has made I'M
qualified declaration of what the peo-
pie may expect at the hands of an
administration directed by him-rid-
dance of the cloud of indecency that
has been hanging over the city
for the past two years, which will not
be disturbed if the republican ticket
is successful at the polls. There is
no better proof of this statement than
the fact that all the undesirable ele-
m ents of the community are arrayed
against MIR. b anding.

STUART Robson MAY Come.

1t is stated by Manager Kindt, Of
the Burtis opera house, Davenport,
that the three cities may have an op-
portunity of witnessing this coun-
try's greatest comedian, Stuart Rob-
son, in "She Stops TO Conquer, y
which was recently revived by him
with much success in Chicago. On
account of the very expensive nature
of the organization. however, the en-
gagement cannot be made without a
large guarantee. Mr.. Robson's APP
pearance in 'She Stops to Conquer"
would undou btedly be the season s
most conspicuous theatrical event.

THE MAIN ISSUE
ABOVE ALL ELSE
What is Before the People in
the Pending Municipal
Campaign.
SHOULD DECIDE ONCE FOR ALL
The Question is the Outspoken
Pledge and the Evasion
of 1t.
SHOULD DECIDE ONCE FOB ALL

There will be no excuse for the har-
boring of disreputable women in the
saloons of Rock Island if Mr. Banding
is elected mayor, for he will be bound
by the obligation which he has pub
licly taken upon himself, to remove
them. He will have the equal obliga-
ton upon his conscience of revoking
the licenses of saloons where minors
are encouraged.
There will be abundant excuse why
these reforms should not be insisted
upon if Mr. Blanding is defeated. He
stands before the people of Rock Is
land as no candidate for the mayoralty
has ever stood before, having made
part of the principles upon which he
asks the suffrages of the people the
promise to inaugurate those improve
ments in the moral condition OF the
city for which the people have. on
more than one occasion, petitioned.
By the stand Mr.. Banding has taken,
responsive to popular sentiment. he
has defined the issues plainly and I'M
mistae ably, and j1st as plainly and
Enthusiastically must the citizenship of
Rock Island speak on election day.
I.sue Is Open and Above Board.
Ne quiet understanding that Mr.
X nox may make, or may have made
on either side of this question, ought
to weigh in comparison with the out
spoken attitude of Mr. Banding. 1t
is universally conceded rule of hu-
man nature that a man who has not
the moral courage to express his own
convictions has not the moral courage
to carry any convictions into force
MIR. Blanding's position as it affects
the present moral status of the city
has been plainly stated by him. He
has placed himself openly on one side
of burning question and is willing to
abide the'consequences realizing that
in the stand he has taken he has ar
rayed against him the tough element
of the city, irrespective of politics.
Election Day VIII Tell the Story.
The story of election day will tell
whether the decent element of the
community, irrespective of politics,
will line up in the effort to accom-
plish his defeat with the class of
people Mr.. Banding has antagonized
in taking the decided position that he
has.

Peter Schlemmer, one of the old
time, most highly respected demo-
Gratis of Rock Island, has been placed
on the party ticket for assistant SUI
pervisor. The nomination was in no
way solicited by Mr.. Schlemmer; in
fact he protested against receiving
any honors at the hands of his party
this spring, and avoided rather than
sought place on the ticket The
party realizing, nevertheless, the
strength that his name would give to
the ticket nominated him anyway,
and when it was found how ear
nest was Mr.. Schlemmer's desire
in the matter it was too late to
make a substitute nomination. Mr..
Schlemmer is not the kind of man
who would desire to have anything
done but that would contribute to
his party's success. He is one of
those men to whom the party natur-
ally turns. and is regarded as one of
it's mainstays and standbys. While
he is seeking no honors himself. he
deserves the best the party or the city
could give him, and had he been
candidate would doubtless have re-
ceived any nomination he desired in
the recent convention. He has been
a resident of Rock Island for many
years and any introduction of him to
the people of the city would be re-
garded as superhuous.

the yearly statements of the Pruden-

which shows new insurance written
to the extent of over &249, 600 900
with total of over 1904 900, 900 in
surance in force at the end of the
year. This company's assets at the
end of 1900 were over $40 900 600.
and it's income for last year
was over s24 100000. The $40 0O0.-
coo paid out to policy holders
since the company's organiza-

indication of the real benefits that
accrue from life insurance. The sur
