The socIety,s Prospectus.

A year ago about half a dozen citi-
zens of Rock Island met at the Har-
per house for the purpose of discuss
ing the question of filling a long felt
want in this city, by organizing a
choral society.
The purpose of this society to be
TO study and rendering at concerts,
to be given at intervals, music of a
high order.
In less than a month the society
had enrolled 200 active and 500 assoc
ciate members, thus showing the gen
eraI desire of the citizens for such
an organization. It is believed the So
ciety has proven a success; that it
has been a benefit to its active mem
bers and source of pleasure to its
associate members.
Last nights concert closed its first
wear. and the active members have
unanimously voted TO make the So
eiety a permanent organization. An
Organization of this kind cannot, how
ever, exist without the support of the
citizens, and the society therefore re-
quests all associate members to re-
new their subscriptions and to assist
them in increasing the membership.
1t being essential that the society
shall at once know to what extent
the citizens will support it, the pub
llic viii shortly be called upon to. re-
new memberships, and it is sincerely
hoped no one, now a member, viii de-
cline to so remain
The intention is to give the first
concert the last part of May, this
spring, on which occasion, if a suit
able date. can be found, the services

A worthy Organization.

There is no organization in Rock
Island, dependent in way on the
citizens for support, that is more de-
serving than the Rock Island
Choral union. Love of music
is the motive of the MEM
bers and their desire is to make Rock
Island a musical center worthy of
the name. There are no salaried Off
GERS, and Prof Toenniges. Miss Gull
ton and Mrs. Cook have been devoting
their time and services freely and
generously.
1t is hoped by the active members
that the support from the city will
be such that at all future concerts
they Will be able to secure the best
talent in the country for solo parts.
All are benefited by connection with
such an organization, especially the
young people who are thus afforded
opportunity of hearing the best eff
forts Of the masters interpreted in
telligently. In short, the generous
support of the public will make of
the city a musical center with a re-
nown far more than local, and this
the society should be given without
stint

order of merit that the president deter mined to make him governor of the islands.

We haven't heard much ofthat good roads movement for some weeks, and yet it is a subject that should not be allowed to die out. Winter is coming on and in a short time the rains and the snows will make many of the roads almost impossible. What if it does take g little money now to put them in shape, won't the result in future more than repay all present trouble and ex- pense? Let us not forget this. This is prosperous age, and almost every thing but our country roads are feel ing the effect. They are allowed to re- main in their old condition, and it should not be so.

Secretary of War Root will leave the cabinet January l and will be suc- ceeded by Governor William H. Taft of the Philippines. Judge Taft will in turn be succeeded as governor of the Philippines by General Luke E.
 Wright, the present vice-governor.
 The president could hardly make a better selection for the war portfolio than Judge Taft, who is one of the best public officials the country has ever produced. The same may equally be said of General Wright, his suc- cessor in the Philippines. General Wright, though a democrat, has the entire confidence of the administration, and his work has been of such high

The postmaster general has directed that railroad trains not carrying mail cars be allowed to carry newspapers to the dealers along the routes, and that such packages be handled by the baggagemen and be considered as United States mail and subject to all the protection that goes herewith. This will not only enable the readers of the great dailes to receive their papers much earlier than formerly in many cases, but will also place every train in the country under the protec- tion of the United States government as being mail trains, strikers are for bidden to molest or interfere with their transit in any way under penalty of the federal law. It will be g great boon to the railroad companies.

Sir Thomas LiptOn is in despair and intimates that there may never be an other contest for the American cup. We sympathize with him in his defeat, but would remind him that the Ameri- can people have a very high regard for a gentleman who has shown so much pluck and determination, and whether he ever races for the cup again or not, he can point to us and say that we are his friends in all truth and sincerity. He has made gallant fight and defeat but raises him in our estimation.

A PureAtivo Pleasure.

If you ever took DeWitt's Little Early Risers for billiousness or con- stipation you know what purgative pleasure is. These famous little pills cleanse the liver and rid the system of all bile without producing unpleasant effects. They do not gripe, sicken or weaken, but give tone and strength to the tissues and organs involved. w. H. Howell of Houston, Texas, says: "No better pill can be used than Lit tie Early Risers for constipation, sick headach, etc." Sold by D. J. Bran- uer.
