TRI-CITY OIL COMPANY
HELD TO PAY ROYALTIES

A report that the Tri-City Oil com
pany had passed into the hands of a
receiver was current today, a rumor
that is really without foundation
further than that there is trouble
with the leasor, the National Oil q
Pipe company, which has attempted
to hold the local company to the pay
mei1t of royalty of one-eighth. The
.Tri-City company has not paid any
thing on this up to date. The Ma
3tional company took the matter into
court and asked the Judge for re
ceiver for the Tri-City company on
the grounds of the royalties due. On
the statement of the hcme company
representative as to the condition of
affairs the judge held the matter in
allegiance until action could be taken
by the directors of the concern \
meeting was held here last night to
decide on proper course of defense
1t was decided that it would be best
to pay the royalty, as it would cost
more to take the case into the United
States district court than ii would to
settle with the National company.
The fact that a dividend of 10 per
cent is to be paid the stockholders
April Is is pretty good evidence that
the company's finances are in good
shape

INQUIRIES THAT
SEEM Pertinent
Relative to the Republican Side of
Rock Islands Moral
Welfare.

Rock Island, April Editor of The
Argus; As a republican, taxpayer
and a christian citizen, who believes
that good moral conditions are more
important than material prosperity
indeed are essential to prosperity
wish to ask republican voters few
questions:
Has the republican party, now in
power, any reason to be proud of the
moral condition of the city?
Have the promises made by repub-
lican leaders when the present admin
istration was seated been redeemed:
Do not the revelations now being
made in the court room convict the
republican administration of gross
neglect, if not completely, in fragrant
violations Of the law?
Did the republican nominee for
mayor, who has held the office for
three terms, enforce the laws against
gambling, prostitution and the, sa-
| loon evils when he was in pOweF2 -.
Is there any hope for a betterment
in moral conditions if he is returned
to power after three conspicuous
failures to fulfill his oath of office?
Is not his principal henchman in
this canvass an eX-chief of police who
did more than any other one man in
the past to start the city on its moral
decline?
Should not the republican voters
rebulle the machine" which has fore
ed this unwelcome candidate upon it,
| by helping to elect either the demo
cratic or independent candidate?
They may not be just the men we
would have chosen, but they have
never, at least, betrayed the trust re-
posed in them. CITIZEN.

JOHN BRUSSELS
DECLARED INSANE
Taylor Ridge Youth Who Stole Horse
Is Mentally I'm
balanced.

Yesterday afternoon in the county
court John Brussels, the 2O-year-old
youth under bonds to the grand jury
for stealing the horse belonging t"
David Adams, of Milan, was adiudgea
insane and Judge ParmeHter entered
an order committing him to the hos
pital at WatertOwn.
The proceedings that resulted in
the decision were instituted by .. Il.
Bruner, of Taylor Ridge, who has
been acquainted with the youth for
wears and who knew of the peculiari-
ties he has exhibited since a child.
When years of age young Brussels
suffered eonvulsion and since that
time. according to the testimony be-
fore the jury, he has acted queerly at
times.
One of the ideas that possesses him
is that he is afflicted with heart and
kidney trouble and he has been CON
tinually buying medicine to cure his
Imaginary ailments. When question
ed in regard to the motive for steal
ing the horse. he said he did it to get
money with which to buy medicine.
He received IS in cash for the animal
and went directly to Davenport
where he expended the greater por-
ton Of the sum for nostrums that he
fancied he needed.
The jury before which the case was
heard was composed. of DR.. Joseph
DeSilva. Karl Bickel. f. II. Caldwell,
Steve Miller. J. f. MulcrOne and w. ii.

Danger Of Gold. and Grin.

The greatest danger from colds and
grip is their resulting in pneumonia.
If reasonable care is used, however,
and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy TAX
en-, all danger will be avoided. Among
the tens of thousands who have used
this remedy for these diseases we have
yet to learn of single case having
resulted in pneumonia, which shows
conclusively that it is a certain pre-
ventive of that dangerous disease. 1t
will cure a cold or an attack of the
grip in less time than any other
treatment. 1t is pleasant and safe to
take. For sale by all druggists.
