BOYS GIVEN BULGE
Warden Jesse Eastman Runs Afoul of
the Law While Prosecuting
Fisherman.
SHARES BOTTLE WITH YOUTH
They Return Home and Try to Make n
Rough HOuse-OhIcer IL
Arrested.

Jesse Eastman, of Moline, constable
and deputy fish warden. is to be tried
before Justice James Searle, in Yuma
township. next Thursday on a charge
of furnishing liquor to minors. He has
been released on $500 bail.
Two boys named Wickiand and Nick
erson are the ones with whom the
constable shared his bottle while in
that section of the country yesterday
while prosecuting a fisherman named
johnson for violating the fish laws.
Johnson was fined SIS. but when il
WAS discovered that he had not sign
ed a jury waiver, he was allowed to
90 without producing.
Eastman had caused the arrest of
Johnson. and his trial was the climax
to a general miXup in that part of the
county due to the determination of
Eastman to make it warm for every
one who in the slightest manner over
stepped the limits of the law, the en-
forcement of which it is his especial
duty to look after.
Try to Lick Their Dads.
Wickland and Nickerson had been at
the trial of Johnson, and when they
returned home, so the story goes, they
were intoxicated, and proceeded to
make a rough house. The parents
questioned them as to where they got
| the liquor and they put the blame on
Eastman. As Eastman does not stand
very high in the estimation of the peo-
pie in that section. here was an Oppor-
tunity to turn the tables on him, and
! the fathers of the boys accordingly Sc
cured a warrant for the fish warden
and States Attorney II. A. Weld was
| called on TO prosecute the charge.
which he agreed to do when the case
| is brought before Justice Searle.
This afternoon Eastman is appear
| ing as prosecuting witness at the trial
| for assault and battery, of James
| Corey, in the court of Justice Harvey
| Williams III Moline.

''Some of the people down in Wall
street seem to be willing to furnish us
with what they call a merchant marine
They have merchant marines and nav.
les and such things to sell, apparently.
But somehow or other the ships we can
get that way are not laden with gold.
They turn out to be worthless.
IF we want good ships we must
build them ourselves. Every standard
Of life in our country is higher and
better than it is anywhere else, except
one thing, and that thing is transpor.
tation.
Transportation is the problem which
confronts the industrial people of this
country. If we would gain and keep
the markets of the world We must furn-
ish cheap transportation. If we fail in
this these great sister ships, Minnesota
and Dakota, will soon be for sale land
I mean sale and not sail.
II mean they will be under the ham,
mer OF the auctlOneer.
Z The problem of inland transportation
was hard one, but we have solved it.
The problem of transporting goods
across the Atlantic was difficult, but we
have at last made good start at solv-
ing it. The problem of conveying the
products of our rich and fertile lands
across the Pacific is most difficult of all.
I am not afraid to tackle it. All am
afraid of is fire in the rear.
II hope and believe we shall soon
have more ships on the Pacific. I hope
and believe we in America will no,
adopt that malady which they call
Britain 'physicalitis.' hope that those
who control the affairs of this nation
will also realize that the conquests of
commerce are hundred times more to
be desired than the conquests of war.
Cheap Freight Rates.
DO you know what we have to do in
transportation in order to make the Or.
iental market available? Do you know
just what the problem is? -e,e3
II will tell you.
In order to carry our business to the
Orient we have got to carry barrel OF
-four from St. Paul or Minneapolis to

1t costs US to send that barrel of -four to

THE TRANSPORTATION
GENIUS OF THE AGE
James J. Hills New Steamers, Minnesota and Dakota,
Surpass All Rivals in Carrying Capacity.-What the
Struggle for Supremacy in the Carrying
Trade With the Orient Means.

Within three months James J. Hill
will be in the thick of fight which he
admits will be hard one, for the con-
troll of the exports from the North Pac'
ific ports and of the carrying trade on
the Pacific ocean.
The big steamship Minnesota, $4,000
tons gross, $50 feet in length and 70 6
feet beam, will then be ready to go into
commission. Nine months later she
will be followed by the Dakota and the
greatest passenger-cargo craft ever
placed In commission for Pacific
service which will enter into COM
petition with the powerful lines that
now handle the huge volume of goods
moving between the United States and
Asia, Australia and the Philippines.
So much has been said and written
on the achievements of the American
shipbuilders who have turned out the
best craft for passenger.cargo service
ever built and the largest ever con-
structed on American ways, that there
has been an inclination to think that
all Mr.. Hill will find it necessary to do
will be to turn the big ships loose and
then sit around and watch them get the
business
Mr.. Hill doesn't think so. He thinks
he will have to fight for whatever he
gets, and in anticipation of a fight as
keen as that which gave him control of
land transportation in the Northwestern
Uni,ed States, he has figured and stud
led, investigated and burrowed after
the minutest facts relating to the Paci.
fic trade until thousands upon thou
sands of dollars have been sunk merely
in laying the foundation of information
on which to proceed with definate plans
for the right kinds of ships for the
Puget sound Orient trade.
Mr.. Hill Outlines His Task.
When the Dakota was launched Mr..
Hill made very brief speech in which
he outlined the task he has set himself
This is what he said: W.
