MUCH ENTHUSIASM APPARENT
Convention of Representative Citizens to Be Held in Phoenix, Satur- day, October 2oth, to De-
 wise Plan for Action
GOVERNOR MURpBY's CALL.

Executive Department of Arizona.
 ''Office of the Governor, Phoenix. ''To the People of the Territory:
 ''I believe that the time is most propitious for the admission of Ari- zona into the union as a state And in my judgment, if our citizens act with unanimity and earnestness the fifty-seventh congress can be induced to pass an enabling act for the purpose during the coming winter.
 "The great benefit of such a pro- motion can scarcely be estimated The principal questions involved have been thoroughly studied and are well understood, and I believe the people of Arizona are practic- ally unanimous for admission Now is the time for action The great boon we have hoped for so long is within our reach. The press and the various commercial associations are aroused to the inn portance of enthusiastic and per sistent work, without which we cannot hope for success.
 Individual interest and personal ambitions should not be considered. Statehood is not a political question. We should all work together as one man, democrats and republicans alike, farmers, miners, grazers, cor porations large and small, and all territorial interests of whatsoever nature should be united on this most important measure for the public good.
 Political differences can be de- cided at the polls after statehood is attained.

able loss in trade to merchants. He
suggested that the special railroad
com mittee give attention to this mat
ter.
President Medill said he was author
'zed to say for II. ID. Mack, division
agent of the Burlington, that there had
been wrong impression concerning
his company, to the effect that changes
in its service would necessitate the
removal of a number of families from
Rock Island; that the facts in the case
were that, instead of loss, there
would be gain of at least so people
to the city.
Mr.. Cables Assurances Repeated.
MIR. Medill also told of an interview
be. with Phil Mitchell, had had with
K r Cable, chairman of the board of
directors of the Rock Island road, yes
terday, the import of which was SUBJ
stantially as that given by Mr.. Cable
in The ARGUS last evening. Mr..
Medill reported that Mr.. Cable
said that the number of train
crews to be shifted to Moline on
account of the transfer of the west
ern freight terminals had been greatly
exaggerated; that only the through
freights from the west would termin-
ate in Moline; the local freight
crews would continue to make their
headquarters here. this point also to
continue to be the terminus of the
passenger trains. Further. the COM
pany was to increase the repairing ia
cilities at its rouudhouse here, was to
build fine new passenger station,
and altogether the outlook was not as
gloomy as it had been pictured.
The Factory Site.
The opening of site for factories
in the western part of the city was con
sidered at some length, the commit
tee having this project in hand max
ing a report that was altogether salts
factory. Further action by the club
was held in allegiance pending settle
ment of important details.
f. q. Young, chairman of special
committee of the Merchants associa-
ton, said that arrangements were
under way to accommodate a local
factory that had announced its inteu-
ton to accept proposition to remove
to Davenport unless something was
done for it here

school boys are very fast this year, as
may be judged from the fact that
they held the heavy men from Angus
tana do1n in practice game to one
score in four innings. Tney are par
ticularly strong in their infield,
Hampton on first and Channon on
third being leit-handed men, with a
quick, jerky movement that is very
pulling to base stealers.
The Alumni team. however. is not
so slow. 1t is composed of men with
brilliant records behind them and the
practice they have been getting of
late has put them in old.time shape.
Gen. Charley Dack is captain and
third baseman. The way he stops
left-hand liners and losses them over
to first is sight for sore eyes. Sam
Dart plays first and his professional
instinct may be depended upon to
keep any and everything from getting
past him. Harry Schreiner on second
nails everything that comes within
reach, and Harry Campbell at short
stop is death on grounders, but his
best hold lies in running bases.
You'd think him dromeIary to see
will pitch. He has an arm as hard and
tough as a new dollar auda-half ball
and his curves are simply majestic.
sears BEHIND Bat.
Ben Sears, who, by the way, has
been no ordinary star in the high
school baseball armament, has con-
scented to stand up behind the bat.
The only time ball ever went past
Ben was at the battle of Guanica, in
the Span;sh-American war, when he
admits letting several go by. How
ever, it was probably just as we'll as
to have had them go through

he can cover center and left as well.

Stomachs That Won't Work

That Retain the Food aud Refuse to ID
gest 1t, Make the Head Heavy and TN,
Nerves Weak, Need Stuart's DyspepsIs
Tablets.
There is cure for dyspepsia. Suf
ferers who have tried noxious nos.
trums will probably be skeptical, but
skepticism vanishes when Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets are tried. Whether
the trouble is dyspepsia of long
standing or merely a simple case OF
indigestion, relief is prompt and pro-
nounced. The less the trouble the
fewer tablets need be taken.
Heaviness after eating. sour stom-
ach. as indicated by belching, fatigue
with slight exertion. or with no exer-
ton at all, disturbed sleep, nervous
ness, constipation. depression, "blues, >
these things can commonly be set
down as symptoms of dyspepsia. And
dyspepsia is merely Indigestion in an
aggravated form.
By promoting perfect digestion,
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets produces
strong nerves, restful, refreshing
sleep. pure blood and good. sound
healthy flesh. They make the skin
clear, the eyes bright. the mind cheer
full.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a
medicine and more than a medicine.
They digest the food and make il
easy of assimilation, and they relieve
the infamed, diseased condition OF
the membraneous Innings and the
glands of the stomach and bowels.
They help the digestive organs over
the hard places, and put them into a
healthy, active condition. They effect
quick and permanent cure. You
don't have to continue taking them
forever, still it is well to have O box
handy and take one at the first return
of the trouble.
Perfectly well people are made sick
by eating too much, or unwholesome
food. but not il they take tablet after
eating. Treatment with Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets does not necessitate
dieting or any change OF habits. They
digest the proper food and act upon
the other kind in such way as to
make it pass off quickly and harm
lessly. You may eat and drink what
you like. when you like, and as much
as you like if you take tablet after
wards.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold

ACTION BY CLUB
AS TO RAILROADS
Cooperation With Merchants and
Council in Interest of the
City.
BIG MEETING OF MEMBERS HELD
Unaninnity of Sentiment Shown--
Presidents Visit and Fac
tory Site.

Rock Island Club members were
out in force at the special meeting
last night called for the purpose cf
discussing the railroads aud their
present and future relations with the
city.
As showing the interest manifest in
this important question among the
business and professional men of the
city, the meeting was probably the
largest ever held by the club purely
for business purposes, and the spirit
of determination manifested in the
railroad and other questions is further
evidence of the revival OF the oId-time
spirit of push in those quarters that
have it within their power to do for
the veal or woe of the community.
Entertainment OF President.
President L. j. Medill was in the
chair, Warren Reck being elected to
serve as secretary in the absence of
Secretary B. d. Connolly. After the
president had explained the OBJ
lscts of the gathering there was a
discussion as to whether the mat
ter of arranging for the entertain
ment of President Mckinley, as far as
the club is concerned, should be left
to the executive committee of the club
or whether a special committee of 10
should be appointed, motion by l.
Simon to the latter effect finally pre-
vailing.
NJ. II. Sexton, l.. G. Pfoh, Ii Gle
mann, George Schneider and 4 G.

Sala were present as committees from
the Retail Merchants association on
railroads and factory sites, and re-
ported the action taken by their asso-
citation the previous evening.
To Call on Railroad Officials
The following resolution, submitted
by +. w. Bahnsen, was thereupon
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That the president of
the Rock Island Club be empowered
to designate a committee of as many

DAVENPORT'S HUSTLE
FOR NEW FACTORIES

A most important matter was
brought before the Davenport Bust
ness Mems association last evening in
communication from the West DAY.
export Improvement company, in
which that company offers free fac
tory sites with railway and water
transportation facilities. The reading
of the communication was received
with applause and was followed by
vote of thanks by the association.
The communication was signed by
George L. Baker, president of the
company, and stated briefly that the
compsny rendered free factory sites
to such industries as might locate
there. The com pany owns an extern
sive tract of land just below and
AUDITING the city limits, in what is
the old town of Black Hawk. This
tract of land lies on the river, having
river frontage of considerable
length, where good harbors can be
made. There is plenty of room for
all of the roads in this city to con-
struct tracks down there and already
the Chicago, Rock Island 81 Pacific
runs past it and the b :. G E. Il N. is
near to hand. The Milwaukee &
St. Paul will also be of easy access
when its Kansas City extension is
perfected.
The association was asked to affix
its name to petition for an extension
of the railway mail service from Du-
buque by way of Clinton over the
new routes lately established, and on
motion of II. A, Hamann it was or
dered done.-Davenport Leader.
