IN MEMORY OF E. s. PHILLIps.

The Hon. Eugene s. Phillips, of this
loichmond) county, died after brief
illness AT his home near Warsaw on
Tuesday, January 14th, 1909. Mr.. Phil
lips was very young when the war
broke out, yet he enlisted In Companv
K, Ninth Virginia Cavalry. and The South
cannot boast Of one more gallant. one
more faithful in the discharge of every
duty as true soldier, one who loved his
home and section more; but when the
war was over and he surrendered and
laid aside his sabre, with it he laid aside
prejudice, passion and ill-will, and never
uttered word of fvindictive hate against
his former adversary, and when he took
the oath of allegiance to the United
States that oath had the seal of honor.
Ills bravery prompted him to do his
own thinking in his own way. He
believed truly in the principles of the
Republican party, aud although he never
was politician, his high sense of honor
aud fairness won for him the confidence
of his party and the respect of his oppo-
nents. His party made him its Chair
man, gave him q seat in the House of Del
egatcs and then as mail agent. 1t can be
truly said of him In every walk of life he
was faithful and true.
He did what his conscience bade him do.
From none but self did he expect ap-
plause;
He nobly lived and nobly died,
Who made aud kept his self made
laws.
The memory of his lofty honor, his
flashing chivalry, his spontaneous and |
burning indignation agains. oppression
or unfairuess towards any one-these |
make the fine aud lasting legacy he be-
to his county and State, aud he |

like the man who faces what he mus,
With step triumphant and a heart OF

Who fights the daily battle without
fear;
Sees his hopes fail, yet keeps unfaltering
trust
That God Is God-that somehow, true

His plans work out for mortsls; not a
tear
Is ahed when fortune, which the world
holds dear,
Falls from his grasp-better, with love,

Than living in dishonor envies not,
Nor loses faith In man; but does his

Nor even murmurs at his humber lot;
But with smile and words of hope,

To every toiler. He alone is great

Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1902-04-26

The growth of the building inter
ests of the upper Mississippi valley
has been continuous and wonderful
and the demand for building materials
has been cOrrespOndingly great ami
is still increasing. The lumber trade
has been an important one ia the up
building of Rock Island, large mills
having been established here for the
past half century and their operation
during that time having constituted
perhaps the most important indus
try in the city. Most important
among the lumber manufacturing
concerns of the city, and one of the
best known in the northwest as we'll
is that of Wcyerhaucser q Dcnk-
mann. The beginning of the business
dates back to 1860, at which time
Frederick Weyerhaueser and +. {. \.
Denkmann united their fortunes ANA
began the manufacture of lumber in
a small way, purchasing for the pur-
pose small mill located where their
present one is and belonging to Mead,
Smith & March. The saving ma
chinery of the mill at that time con
sisted of one rotary and one muley
and employed about twenty-five men.
As soon as the mill came under the
control of Weyerehaueser & Denk
mann many improvements and cXtcn
sions were made and have been con-
tinued from time to time till the es-
tabIishment is now one of the largest
and best equipped in the northwest.
The plant. which is located in the
west part of the city. covers about
thirty acres of ground. all but n
small portion of which is used for
yards. Nearly all the land has been
filled with refuse in places TO
depth of p feet, thus reclaiming it
from the condition of a swamp and
making it useful for future. as well as
for present purposes. The saving
outfit of the mill consists of two
bands a gang and a twin circular
saw. the latter now being put in place
for handling the smaller logs which
are more and more in evidence as
the supply of timber in the pineries

a couple of years ago. The other
boats that have been used are the j..
X. Graves, which was purchased and
later soldE the r. Rutledge, bought
from the Rock Island Lumber COM
pany and now in use, and the ii. c.

The two latter are bow-boats, the
former being the consort of the Wey-
erhaueser and the latter of the Rut-
ledge Both were built by the firm,
the late II. c. Brockmann being the
carpenter under whose direction they
were constructed.
The manufactured products are
dependent upon rail facilities as the
means of reaching the markets
These are exceptionally good. the
Yards being cut i'm twain by the Rock
Island Il Peoria road with abundant
track room for loading purposes.
The territory i'm which lumber is sold
includes Ohio on the east and Colo
RADIO on the west. The range north
and south is, of course. not so large
The lumber manufacturing inter-
ests of the firm are not confined TO
this city, by any means. As the bust
ness has branched out and developed
in the northwest and in the south 1T
has kept pace and built mills where
manufacturing could be carried ON IN
the most economical manner. Last
year the large mill and yard owned
by the firm in Davenport was de-
stroyed by fire with a loss of $780,

Rock Island Lumber Company.

hOCk ISIanu LUMBER company.
The building up of Rock Island and
the development of the Mississippi
valley have created large demand
for ali kinds of building materials.
Likewise every branch of trade that
pertains TO construction work has a
good representation in the commerce
of Rock Island. This is particularly
true with the lumber trade. and for
years thIs community has turned out
millions upon millions of feet of lum-
Der along with the products of the
kindred lines of manufacture. First
among the establishments OF this
character is the Rock Island Lumber
< Manufacturing company which was
incorporated under the state law on
Feb. 18th. 1878. For years it has been
one of the foremost enterprises of
its kind along the Mississippi river.
It's great buildings, mills. dry sheds.
and storage yards have been filled and
depleted each year by products that
have a reputation second to none
produced in the Mississippi valley.
Originally the company purchased
the plant of AnawaIt d Denkmam
company which was established in
1871. that firm having originally pur-
chased what was known as the old
skinner mills. The company improv
ed the plant and added to it every
year. manufacturing and dealing in
all kinds of lumber. lath. shingles.
sash. doors. mouldings, and in fact
everything along that line of manu-
facture. The company has of later
years given special attention to the
local trade. They make speciality
of hard wood lumber, and are in po-
sition to furnish almost anything
along this line. Estimates are cheer
fully made of any kind of material
in every line. and the service they
render to the building public is al
ways prompt and reliable.
The local management of the COM
pany is in the hands of Frank ID.

MARRIAGE AND PROSPERITY.

1t is not surprising to learn that the
number of marriages in 1901 exceeded
the record made in any previous year.
The statistics have not been compiled
in all cities, but in nearly every place
where complete returns have been
made the story of an increase is told.
New York City reports about 1850
more marriages in 1901 than in 1900,
Baltimore about 100 more and Cincin.
natl 252 more. These cities can be
taken as examples. and when marriage
statistics are made up elsewhere they
will doubtless show the same record of
increase.
This vas expected. The year was a
prosperous one, and according to all
past experience it should have shown
an increase in marriages. The vital
statistics of civilized nations illustrate
this fact.

DEMOCRATS.

The democrats in congress have just
made some characteristic but very hui
initiating confessions of impotency. An
attempt was made by some of the lead
ers of the party in the house to get up
a caucus foundations of the princi-
Piles which should guide them in their
attitude toward legislation in that
chamber and it ended in the most alb
ject failure. The caucus declared that
it had 20 power to put forward a pol

ty in the country at large, and there
fore give up all idea Of reaching har-
mony on anything which will come up
In congress this year. Right at the
beginning of congress the necessity of
getting together on some side or other
of the great questions which will come
up for action was so plain to some of
the leading spirits of the party that
Representative Mcclellan. of New
York, presented a set of resolutions,
which had been drawn up by Edward
NJ. Shepard, Tammany's recent candi-
date for mayor of New York. The dem
ocrats of the house, however, failed to
reach any agreement at that time. and
they scored an even more disastrous
disagreement since then in their at
tempts to get their caucus to formulate
something which could be put forward
as democratic policy on the grave
questions of the day.

m of the few remaining portions of
the earth where civilization is making
an attempt to introduce itself accord
ing to its familiar manner. 1t is not
known whether the fiber of a~borgines
is dete~riorating, but it became evident
to the more cultured races that the
natives of the New Hebrides were un-

is stimulated by alcohol. opium and
firearms. The principal powers there
fore entered into an agreement to dis
pense with the usual agents of civlliza-

law recently passed by congress is the
outcome OF that international agree
ment.

A OF SENATORS.

1t is a remarkable thing that only
fifteen senators were willing to vote
in favor of an increase in the pay of
members of congress. Perhaps if the
vote had been taken in committee of
the whole, and it had not been neces-
sary to take the ayes and noes, the
vote might have been different. OF
course the bill did not apply to the
present congress, but equally of course
there are some senators who in the lat
ter part of their terms would benefit
by the increase if it should be maue,
beginning in 1904. The fifteen deserve
the credit of having the courage of
their convictions and taking the UNI
popular side openly.

The CENSUS.

The proposal for a permanent cen
sus bureau is one that has been agi-
tated in congress for a number of
years, and there are many arguments
in favor of it, the most important of
which are the creation of a trained
corps of expert statisticians and the
establishment of a system under which
the experience of the past will be made
profitable. There can be no question
of the value of reliable statistics, and
equally there can be little doubt of the
injury of unreliable statistics. And yet
their Importance is not fully a%ppreciat-
ed as il should be.

The Elks have a chance to build a
commodious hall and opera house at
small cost. An offer has been made of
three lots which are opposite the High
land hotel on East Railroad avenue
and 81 900 in cash if the hall is built
there. This would place the hall with
in a block of the new hotel and mu-
of the Santa Fe road. There
may be another equally as good, if not
better, proposal made to the local
lodge at the next meeting. One thing
is certain, the Elks have an excellent
chance to erect a fine hall and opera
house, and if wise action is taken the
lodge will not be loaded down with
debt.
