POINTS POLITICAL.

Did you hear how popular Phil Mil
Ter is in the west end of town? He's
so popular that the boys are just
waiting in several places to have him
call.
If you put your ear to the ground
you will hear the sound of George
McCaskrin's wood saw running right
along.
The people of Rock Island know
that good business like administra-
ton of city affairs would mean in
creased activity in different ways, and
they propose to have it by electing w.
c. Maucker, man of business train
ing, who has himself succeeded by
sheer force Of character.
Contrary to what might be sup
posed, there is no law requiring the
people of Rock Island to keep Viii
liam McConochie and Phil Miller in
office. You do not imperil your rights
to life, liberty or the pursuit of hap
piness if you refuse to do so.
Mr.. McConochie's nomination must
be good news to the republican re-
form element, who arc respectfully
referred to the eN-mayor's farewell
when he retired two years ago. He
gave them a slam. then that would
wrinkle your raglan.

country goes up much more slowly.

THE WHISKEY CROP
Poor Grain and Few Barrels to
Curtail it.
Several Distilleries Have Already Shut
Down.

From present indications the pro.
duction of whiskey in this state is to
be greatly curtailed because Of the
scarcity of oooperage and the high
price of grain.
Distillers are claiming that the
grain this year is poorer for distilling
purposes than ever before ON account
of the unusual percentage Of moisture
which it contains. For this reason,
they say they are unable to get the re-
suits from the same amount Of grain
rs they have in previous years. As the
grain is bought by weight, and the
high percentage Of moisture makes
the corn very heavy, as we'll as insult
able for distilling purposes, many dis
tillers are already talking Of closing
down their distiileries. Several have
already been shut down, and it is ru-
mored that the Kentucky Distiller,es
and Warehouse company will close .
numer of their plants during the next
two weeks.
Coopersge companies are holding
distilleries strictly to their contracts,
and are not allowing them . single
barrel o-er the number contracted for.

Springfield. ILL.,, May 19.-Gov.
Yates, in a long communication at
$3.50 o'clock Monday night, sent his
approval of the Mueller traction bill

chasing existing lines these certificates

gible property, and nothing shall be

city does not purchase at the expira-
ton of a franchise il can authorize
a new company to take the property on
the same. terms it could have.
