Hold Separate Meetings.

One of the Rock Island delegates
then moved as substitute that the
delegates divide and hold separate ses-
sions, so that business might be facili-
tated and all might act only upon
that which concerned them. This
prevailed and the Rock Island mem
bers left the hall, holding separate
session i'm one of the rooms on the
lower floor.
The Rock Island members organized
by electing T.. {. Berry chairman,
and ". II. Alum secretary. There
were II unions represented, and but
two socialists were present. \ mo-
ton was made and carried, that
none who would not pledge them
selves to abide by the will of the
meeting should have any part i'm the
proceedings. This eliminated the two
socialists. Secretary Alum was Their
made chairman of the committee TO
draw up call for "a convention of
union labor men to be held at the
Industrial home building Monday,
Feb. 16. for the purpose of arranging
platform and nominating full
ticket. The same committee will ON
that date present Il platform for

Purpose OF che NIeetInr.

The assembly was originally called
by the act of the Tri-City Labor Con
gress, to discuss the advisability of
placing a labor ticket i'm the field in
all three cities. 1t was desired to get
an expression of opinion from the
recognized labor leaders.
The socialists of the three cities
were out in force, particularly those
from Davenport, the delegation from
that city forming Il majority of those
present. The meeting convened at the
hall at 2 o'clock, with about 100 dele
gates representing various unions in
attendance.
1t was plain from the start that
the socialists we're in the majority.
y. c. Reed, of Davenport, and II. l..
Darby, of this city, both socialists,
were chosen respectively chairman
and secretary. The completion of the
organization was the signal for the
beginning of a flow of oratory in
which the socialists led. After an
hour and half of speechmalling a
motion was made that the meeting
ratify the ticket of the socialists in
Rock Island.

AT INDUSTRIAL HALL YESTERDAY
Rock Island Delegates Withdraw
and Vote to Put Up Labor
Ticket.

AS has been anticipated, there was
an attempt made to secure the in
dorsement by the meeting of union
labor men at Industrial hall yester-
day afternoon of the city ticket the
socialists put in the field last week
ltseems there was a very carefully laid
plan to that effect, but it did not
carry. Instead it was decided to call
a strictly union labor convention to
formulate a platform and nominate
a full municipal ticket in Rock Island
The meeting was one of the most
spirited that has been held in the In
dustrial home building for several
months. 1t was open only to men
bearing union cards, but the events
that transpired have pretty generally
leaked out.

II IS PURE
New York Health Bulletin
 IndOrses Skagway Beer.

In an article discussing the dangers from impure drinks, the United States Health Bulletin, a journal devoted to "health, sanitation and hygiene, says;
 "But while there can be no doubt that pure, carefully brewed beer is the ideal beverage for the heated term, there is even less doubt that the con- sumer should use care and judgment in the selection of the brew of beer that he drinks. Possibly no article of food OF Of drink is more susceptible Co m- scrupulous adulteration than beer, and nothing can be changed more quickly by collaboration from a health giving Co a system wrecking beverage OF food.
 "The United States Health Bulletin has made many exhaustive evamna- tions into brands of beer freely offered on the market, from the small aS we'll as the great breweries of the country, and is pleased to have found that the pure, unadulterated, hygicnically pre- pared article seems Co predominate, but, on the other hand, We have found so much filthy and criminolly adulter- ated stun labelled beer, that i, makes us regret more than ever that the law is not such that it can lay it, hands upon the makers and save the careless consumer from suffering by his own negligence.
 Among the beers that we feel justi- fled in recommending for its purity and the sanitary and hygieuic methods of its preparation, is that from the Skag- way Brewing Company, of Skagway Alaska.
 "We make thi, recommendation without the solicitation or knowledge of this brewery and solely upon the merits of the product, jn thc interest, orpure food products.

ANOTHER MAD-MAN
AT THE WHITE HOUSE
John Decker Was Unarmed But
Was Turned Over to the
Police.

Washington, Oct. 7--Another crank
tried to get at the president this morning.
About ten o'clock a stranger was observed
by one of the officers on duty at the White
House wandering about in the north lob
by. He had sneaked in the front door
without being noticed He gave the name
Of John Decker and said he belonged in
Norwich, Conn, and wanted to see the
president.
The officers turned him over TO the POI
lice. He was not armed and made no hos
tile demonstration. From his general be-
navior the officers we're convinced he Is
mentally unbalanced. Under orders from
the White House the police authorities
decline to let any one see or talk with
him. It is stated thathe had some papers
relating to money claim he wanted to
show to the President.
