A drummer, e. n. knight, hsiI-
ing from Arkansas, bat travelling
for New York house, made the re-
mark In substance, while eating din
ner &C the Commercial hotel, to-day,
that there was not yirtuous woman
in Texas over fifteen years Of age.
Another drummer sitting e T
jumped up and started at knight to
give him a drubbing for his remark,
when Knight gave the Masonic
distress sign, and the other drum
mer stopped and answered it. There
were no Cameron people in the
hotel at the time, but the word was
passed around and when Knight APP
peared on the street he was asked
by Blount McCord If he made the
remark attributed to him. He re-
piled: yes, but j will explain.
Blount said no explanation was nee
essary, and knocked him down and
was giving him a good drubbing
when parties ran up and pulled him
off, not knowing what the difficulty
was about. The drummer jumped

protected him then to the depot,
where he took the train, promising
that he would never come to Cam

Newspaper Men in Congress-.

The Hearst newspapers will be
pretty well represented in the next
congress. William Randolph Hearst,
promoter of the New York Journal.
Chicago American and San Francisco
Examiner, was himself elected in
New York. and Livernash, the brains
of Hearts San Francisco paper, was
elected in one of the Golden Gate dis
tricts.
1t is expected that Livernash will
make himself heard. The Tacoma
Ledger says he is of that intellectual
variety closely allied to genius" The
bedger says further of him that ''he
has ideas and command of speech
little less than marvellous. He was at
the capital during the discussion of
the Chinese exclusion bill, and the
ablest advocacy of the measure came
from him as he analysed and dis
cussed before the senate committee
the need of restriction. For his work.
however, Congressman Kahn, without
the slightest pretense, got most of
the credit.
1t is a grim and yet logical Sc
quence that Livernash now goes to
Washington to take the place to
which Kahn aspired to be reelected.
About a decade ago, Livernash, hav-
ing been subjected to troubles long
continued, lost his mind to such an
extent that for a short time, and in
accord with his own wish, he was the
inmate of an asylum. An effort was
made to use this fact against him in
the campaign. 1t was pretty low pol
tiles, and it did not win. On the con-
trary, the very meanness of it served
to help Livernash, and in all probable
ity caused his victory. Decency in
politics often is a fairly useful ele-
ment

The Detention Hospital.

Elsewhere in this issue of The
Argus appear the views of the mem
bers of the medical profession in
Rock Island on the subject of the de-
tention hospital, apropos of the pur-
pose of the city to put the building
and grounds at present designated
for such purposes in suitable condi-
ton to meet reasonable emergencies.
The subject is one in which the peo-
pie should be deeply interested, and
while they may well rely upon the
judgment of the physicians, to whom
method for the care and isolation of
| contagious diseases is essentially a
study, yet it would be better if the
public would give more attention to
such matters to the end that the most
intelligent cooperation and support
be given the health authorities in
dealing with the things which ought
to he of the most vital concern at all
times
While there is a difference of opin-
ion among the members of the medi-
cal profession as to the permanency
of the present detention hospital. all
agree in the conviction that the city
should adopt without delay such n
course as will insure To the city of
Rock Island an institution whose sit
uation and environments as well as
nature will meet every requirement
that may develop, both as it affects
those who may be cared for as well as
the public in general.
In a word. as The Argus takes it.
the consensus of opinion among the
doctors is that the place for the treat
ment of the afflicted should, while
given every safeguard as far as the
general public is concerned. be so de-
signed and situated as to be as much
of a hospital as possible, and in its
literal adaptation, as little in the ma
ture of pest house as may be.

The speakership of the Next House

1t looks like a struggle between the
east and the west, for the speaker
ship of the next house of representa-
tives.
Thus far neither the west nor the
east have united definitely on their
champions, but as events progress,
the prospects for battle royal be-
tween Cannon. of Illinois. and Dali
Zell, of Pennsylvania, grows apace.
Cannon's natural strength is being
sorely tested these days by the am
billions of many men who impugn
upon his territory. His most formid-
able rival is Babcock, of Wisconsin,
who has called meeting of his state
delegation for Saturday to decide
upon what steps to take. In the
event Mr.. Babcock should decide not
to enter actively into the canvass,
the strength of Wisconsin will I'M
doubtedly go to Cannon. Iowa pre-
sents a similar situation. Cannon is
a commanding figure there, but with
Babcock in the field, he would have to
divide the votes.
The latest complication has arisen
in Ohio. Congressman Grosvenor is
responsible for the statement that
Mr.. Burton, of Cleveland, chairman
of the committee on rivers and har-
bors, is preparing to shy his castor,
and has written letters TO members
of the Ohio delegation requesting
them to refrain pledging themselves
until they hear from him. Burton's
candidacy would affect both Cannon
and Dalzell, as the indications pointed
to vote divided between them. In
the meantime, condition of com
parative quietude prevails in the east
where the candidacy of DaIzel has
been Well received.

The story comes from the presi
dents hunting party to the effect
that one of the number freed a bear
and then sent for the president that
he might have the satisfaction of
shooting the beast, but that the exec
utive declined to accept the trophy
under such conditions. If this is not
merely the story of the press agent
of the expedition, and is really fact,
it will do more to awaken admiration
of our sportsman president than the
majority of his acts in political life.

Athletics at Yale.

For the first time in the history of
Yale university a president of that in
stitution has entered actively into
athletics. 4 few days ago President
\. II. Hadley, as a member of the fac
ulty tennis team, played against the
regular Yale team. His side lost by
five matches to three, but DIR. Hadley
defeated his youthful antagonist. He
was attired in conventional tennis
uniform and proved to be an adept,
winning easily in straight sets. Rev.
Arson Phelps Stokes, secretary of
Yale, was not so successful, and was
badly winded at the close.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1902-11-15

1t would indeed be a great misfor-
tune if the president should fail to
get his bear. 1t would mean twice in
the short space of a few weeks that
an animal by such a name has detied
the nations chief, and in both cases
the people of the country irrespective
of party have wanted to see energetic
Teddy bring down his game.

have been heard from, and the only
ominous cloud hovers over Maine,
where Congressman Littlefield COM
mands four votes for himself.
The western candidates, however,
are preparing to invade the east and
will try conclusions with Dalzell as
soon as the situation in the west
sufficiently clarifies.
