TO REVIVE PICNIC
Congressional District Woodmen
Association Has Been
SIumbering.
CITY OF MILNE WITHDRAws
Effort to be Made TO Restore Har-
mony-Big Affairs OF the
Past.

There is talk of a revival of the Con
gressiOnal District Woodmen Picnic
| association. an institution that was
allowed to pass into oblivion after the
congressional reapportionment, which
changed the district from the Tenth
to the Fourteenth.
The reappOrtiOnment separated
Rock Island county from three of its
best neighbors. Knox. Henry and
Stark. These counties had been en-
thusiastic supporters of the congress
ional picnic that was held annually.
attracting thousands of Woodmen and
their families for an outing OF one or
more days. at which prominent speak
erS were heard and program of drills
and sports carried out.
Moline is claimed to have been the
principal offender in causing the de-
feat of the plans of the association.
having gone into an arrangement last
year with the Scott county Uowa)
association, and had Il picnic at Pros
pect park that was nothing in com
parisOn to the gatherings that were
brought here in former years under
the auspices Of the Tenth Congress
ional District association. Moline's
complaint was the city Of Rock Island
was enacting the role of wolf in seek
ing to become the permanent picnic
ground of the association.
Rank Injustice to This City.
When this impression was sent
forth from Moline rank injustice
was done those identified with the as
Sociation in this city. Rock Island
was willing. in fact was desirous, of
alternating the annual outing among
the towns in the district that were
able to accommodate the crowds. and
were in a position to guarantee by
public subscription the amount neces-
sary for the entertainment of the peo-
pie attracted by an affair of that
character.
Each year when the picnic was vot-
Ell to Rock Island il was done so only
after the local members of the associ-
alton pledged the raising Of from ST.
500 to $1,000 to provide music. decora-
tiOns. prizes. etc. Ana the pledges
here were in every instance fulfilled
to the letter. When il came MoIine's
turn to act the part of host the mem
| hers Of the association there did not
feel equal to shouldrring the RESPONSE
| bility for the raising of the entertain
ment fund required. grew huffy at the
| Rock Island members. and then Joined
hands with an association in another
state.

Should Get Together.

The Rock Island Woodmen are anX-
ious for revival Of the annual dis
trict picnic. They are willing that it
should be located in any city in the
district. and they will support it as
encreetically as if il were to take
place i'll their own city. In all parts
of the jurisdiction of this great order
these annual outings are had. and it
il to he regretted that the counties
having the headquarters in their midst
cannot get along in harmony and set
the pace, as they should, for the more
remote districts in the matter of
Woodmen celebrations. 1t is proba-
bic that meeting will be called in the
near future to discuss the reviving of
the congressional district association.

HoRsoN. TIE POSER.

=. M@ ~
Lieutenant Hobson is breaking in
to print and speech too frequently.
His head has been turned by notori-
ETY., and he is laboring under the de-
fusion that he is a statesman. Edu-
Gated at government xpens for the
sea, he pleads physical inability to
carry out his part of this tacit con
tract. The sinking of the Merrimac
was a failure in more ways than one.
1t not only failed to block the harbor,
but it did block in this young man
what might have been a creditable
life in the navy. The applause freely
given by a generous people to one
act of courage completely spoiled
him. He at once began talking, and
has talked ever since. To talking he
added kissing and became the
laughing stock of a people who had
| praised him. But even this did not
repress his inordinate desire to break
into public office. He wanted t go
to congress, but the people of his
own district objected. At the ST. Lou
is convention he detained a speech
he had committed in a very pleasing
manner, which would have been very
creditable if given by some high
school student. His soto remarks
from his seat on the platform during
the proceedings of the convention
were silly and disgusting. The sole
ambition of the man is to pose before
the public eye. and to crafty this
ambition he will scuttle a ship, kiss
in public an old maid, put false words
in the mouth of a respected negro,
that he may have a text, or insult
a great party leader. just so the
| name of Hobson may be again in
print. This is Hobson, the kisser,
the poser, the young naval officer
who was spoiled by the sinking of the
Merrimac. Spoiled as he is, he is yet
o fresh. He should return to the
salt water.

VIM. Kirmse, a member of the
bridge gang working neal Littleport,
was taken i'll Thursday night with
cramps and a kind of cholera. His
case was so severe that he had to
have the members of the crew wait
upon him and Mr.. Clifford was called
and consulted. He told them he had
a medicine in the form of Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoae
Remedy that he thought would help
him out, and accordingly several dos
es were administered with the result
that the fellow was able to be around
next day. The incident speaks quite
highly of Mr.. Chords medicines
