WHICH OF THE TWO
WOULD SERVE YOU BETTER

Which of the two will Serve you
better in the halls of the Illinois legis-
lature?
The man of experience and acknowl-
edged ability who stands high in his
for the sake of catching votes. who if
rejected will have influence and stand
ing with one of the great parties in the
Illinois legislature, who has conducted
his campaign along lines of decency
and fairness to his opponents. and has
appealed simply to the calm Judgment
OF his own party, whose candidate he
is and whom he will be bound to serve
in all matters strictly political if elect
ed.
Or. the man who has conducted his
campaign purely along the lines OF
abuse of his opponents, who while be
ing republican has hesitated 70 admit
it lest he lose few votes. who having
attacked the candidates of both poiit-
ical parties which will dominate the
legislature will have no standing with
either who if anything on a vote af-
rCcting the drawing of straight party
lines would be a republican or moth
ing, and who as far as influence in
the lower house goes would be most
ly nothing?
To democrat there can be no ques-
ton as to where the course of duty
lies. both to himself and TO his party.
If. regardless of politics. you desire
TO recognize ability and nave your
district creditably represented, there
ought to be no hesitancy as between

gagged in the careful and industrious
practice of the law in which he has
attained a reputation as among the
most conscientious at the Rock Island
county bar. He has never aspired to
any Office. became the nominee for

YOUNG MAN LAID
LOW BY FOOTPADS
William Clark Found in a Stupor
on Twentieth Street After
Midnight.
MONEY AND HAT ARE GONE
And Cut in His Face Where He Had
Been Struck BY His AS
saiIants.

William Clark, aged 90 years, resid-
ing at S29 Twentieth street. was held
up at midnight Saturday while on his
way home after a visit to Davenport,
and was found in semi-conscious con-
dition on the spot where he was felled
by two young men who were return
ing home from a dancing party.
Clark was lying beside the walk on
Twentieth street between Sixth and
Seventh avenue. His hat was gone
and there was a cut on his upper lip.
showing one of the places where he
had been struck by his assailants He
was lifted to his feet. and after some
effort was reused from his stupor, after
which he related the circumstances of
the robbery as b, st his memory serv-
ed him.
Robbery Is the Motive.
That robbery was the motive was
indicated by the fact that 81, all the
money that the young man had with
him. was taken from his pockets. He
did not know his assailants.
Detective Richard Carnes was as
signed to investigate the case. He
has learned, he states. that Clark
spent the evening in Davenport with
two young man friends from this side
! of the river, and that they quarreled
during the return trip over the bridge
The officer had been informed that
there was a woman at the bottom of
| the difficulty, and that Clark stood
alone, having incurred the displeasure
of his two friends.
Part Company at VIaduct.
They parted company at the Twenty
| fourth street viaduct Clark coming
west on Third avenue to Twentieth
street, and his two friends turning
south on Twenty-fourth. While there
is no evidence to support such theory
the officers suggest the possibility OF
the other two boys having followed
Clark up and given him a beating.
