DESPITE all rumors to the contrary, il
seems that Gen. Woods nomination 10 be
major general will be confirmed by the
Senate. And this will please about nine
tenths of the American people, who see
no opposition to the Generals promotion
except that which comes from the crowd
that he exposed and had punished in con-
nection with the Cuban postal frauds.
These rascals seem to have some infiuen-
tial backing which has been ~endeavoring
to get even with General Wood by OPP
posing his confirmation.

The young man who had spent his
efforts for several years without re-
suit in studying art was talking with
his practical uncle. who had patiently
paid the bills.
"Of course" said the young artist,
Il know | haven't made much of Il 20
of it. but | don't think you ought TO adj
wise me to try something else, You
know it's best TO put all your eggs in
one basket and watch that basket"
"Um. That may be, Charlie; but did
you ever think how foolish 1t is to put
so many baskets around one bantam
egg?'-Youth's Companion.

AT the meeting of the National Repub.
lican Committee, in the city of Washing
ton last Saturday, for the purpose of fix
ing a time and place for holding the next
Republican National convention, Chicago
was selected as the place and June Dist
as the date. The windy city had all other
competitors down by a large majority
and won out easily. The sentiment OF
the committee as to choice of candidates
was unanimous for President Roosevelt,
and the probability is that an Illinois
man will be his running mate. All the
members of the Committee were inter
viewed and the answers were practically
the same, "the people want Roosevelt"
This does not suit Wall street, but Wal
street is not making candidates for the
Republican party.

FIRST FOOTBALL
GAME TOMORROW
High School Plays Davenport on
Grounds Across the
River.

Tomorrow afternoon the Rock Isl
and high school football team will
play its first match game, and the
boys will be against a hard PROPOSE
ton. Their antagonists will be the
Davenport high school team and the
contest will be pulled off at the Dav-
export baseball park. 1t had not been
the intention to play a game with the
Iowans so early in the season, one
contest having been scheduled for
this city Thanksgiving day, but both
teams wanted game tomorrow and
neither had the date filled.
1t is needless to say that there will
be much interest conferred in tomor-
rows scrimmage, for it will serve to
give the enthusiasts a line on both
teams as well as the individual mem
bers to serve as basis for an esti-
mate of what may be expected during
the fall.
The local team practiced with Au-
gustana yesterday after school The
result showed the high school team
superior to last years. Augustana
got the ball first, and after vain line
plunges and .fumbles Rock ISL
and secured it and started in the OPP
pOsite direction. There was no at
tempt at scoring. but the high school
boys showed up to advantage. Tackle
back plays were the favorite ones.
Lifts line plunges and punts were
Il feature, and Griffith made several
brilliant end plays. The lineup of the
high school boys was as follows:
Contradiction. Coleman.
Right guard-Cozad.
Left guard-Graves.
Right tackle-EhrhOrn.
Left tackle-IIenderson
Right end-,iriffith.
Left end-Mosenfelder.
Quarterback
Right half-Marquis.
Left half-Liitt.
Full back-SuIliyan.
Augustana had no especially picked
team. but different men were tried
out
The high school team is in excellent
condition and there is much rivalry
between the men for positions, max
ing it hard to select the team. Mr..
Dove the coach. deserves great praise
for his good work and faithfulness.
Black jerseys have been purchased
