Six tons a day is the amount of real

bottom which is daily sent through

MOLINE MENTION

In the development of the service OF
the Tri-City Railway company in the
tri-cities, Moline may come in for some
notable improvements in the local
trackage system this season. The
plan for looping the terminals of all
the Moline lines has not been aban-
doned, although it was not put
through last summer as originally
planned. The Improvement contem-
plates the construction of 4 down
town loop for the Fourth avenue and
bluff lines around the block between
Fifteenth street and Fourteenth and
Fifth and Fourth avenues. 1t would
afford a great advantage over the pres
ent congestion on Fifteenth street and
would keep the cars moving all the
time instead of changing on the main
street of the city. In addition to this
new trackage down town. loops are
contemplated at the terminals of the
Third avenue. Fourth avenue and
Prospect park lines so that the cars
will be able TO run without reversing
the trolley. The route of the loops on
| these terminals has not been definite
| " decided. though on the Fourth ave
nue. line it il proposed that from
Twenty-third street the cars will run
east on Fifth avenue and west OF.
Sixth. The Prospect park loop is be-
| ing contemplated in connection with
the Chautauqua assembly and the in
tentiCn * to build 4 track through to
the park and back again, which will
take the assembly crowds directly 10
the gates of the grounds and perhaps
discharge them within the enclosure.
an arrangement highly superior to
| that of the past.

THE CONSTITUTION OR THE
SWORD.

Could there be put in one short para
graph a more striking contrast of two
men than that which Senator Joseph
w. Bailey made between Roosevelt
and Parker in his recent Brooklyn
address when he said:
''There stands the President, with
his feet on the Constitution and his
sword i'm his hand. Here stands our
candidate. with his feet on the sword
and the Constitution i'm his hands.
Which would You chOOse?
There. if you please, is the boiled
down essence of the political contest
now pressing upon us. On the one
hand a tempestuous, self-willed, in
ordinately ambitious erratic charac-
ter, who is guided by his own desires
and who brooks not even the Constl-
tuition when it conflicts with him, a
man who is typified by the sword and
gun, a man run amuck with the idea
of his own greatness, a man who be-
lieves 81 am the State"
And on the other hand, who? A
man whose very life marks him as a
true CONSERVATION of law. A man who
reveres the Constitution, man who
can find in the law of this country
ample grounds for every protection
needed for it's people. ample scope for
every onward movement demanded
by the advance of the age, man of
sane temperant, of energetic vitality
guided by reason, of equipoise of char
acter a man by whom every right of
the people of this nation would be
safeguared without buster, man who
is moved by the steady breeze of rea-
son, not by the ill advised gusts of ex-
pediency for self and party.
If this nation seeks a return to it's
true principles there can be no doubt
as to the result in November for in the
person of Judge Parker Democratic
nominee for President. there is en-
bodied all that is safe. sane and sound
He stands for the Constitution and for
what it means, While his opponent
places his heel upon it, and with sword
in hand, tits at the world with the
folly of a reckless boy, caring not for
results except as they tend to glorify
him

a POET AT REST.

The man-labor of a man who is at
rest, when that man has dealt with
humanity in closest touch, is some
thing. at which the world is willing to
look again and again.
Such man was Carlyle Mckinley,
of the editorial staff of the News ana
Courier of Charleston. He was a
writer of ability but his best efforts
were not in prose, if the human touch
of a writer is to be marked as his
best effort. Mckinley has lain off his
harness, or better, it was lifted off by
the Hand of The Master, and the man
who wrote has gone away.
OF the manner of poet that he was
those who have read his lines know.
They were lines of uplift always,
and the spirit of the poet who
in illness waited for months for the
Summons he knew were coming is
seen in the following verses, taken
from the Century:
The Toilers.
All day the toilers sigh for rest,
Nor find it anywhere.
The sun sinks in the darkling west,
And they forget their care;
Tired hands are folded on each breast
The Lord hath heard their prayer!
Through all our lives we pray for rest,
Nor find it anywhere,
Then comes the night, with balmy
breast,
And soothes us unaware,
I wonder much-'And is it Death,
Or but an answered prayer
