FEELING GROWS.
Against the Democratic County
Committees Recent
Action.
\ DEMAND FOR FAIRNT
Is the Expression OF the Party From
All Parts of the
County.

Not only is the feeling among demo-
Gratis in the city growing against the
recent action of the democratic coun-
" committee, but it is extending out
into the country as the members of
the party rank and file grasp the pur-
port of the proceeding. That the de-
sign of the resolution which can hard
ly be said to have prevailed, notwith
standing that it was given out as the
sense of the meeting, contemplated
two purposes does not admit of doubt.
The first object is the muZZling of
party expression in the caucuses,
where any line of procedure that the
committeeman may adopt is permis-
sible. The other is the using of the
democratic party of Rock Island coun-
~ as means of aiding in the election
of LOoney's coworker. John X. Scott,
to the office of states attorney. de-
spite the revulsion on the part of the
republican party in Rock Island coun
to the influences back of his nomina-
ton. Scott. as Il matter of fact, comes
from the same unholy combine, with
which LooneY and Phil Miller are af-
ffIiated and which slated Kennedy for
the office of sheriff and ran him for
supervisor at the last city-townShi
election. and for the election of whom
LoOney did all in his power. although,
as it happened, in vain, by first at
tempting TO riot the democratic city
township convention, and thereafter
by going into court and endeavoring

Looney's Waning Influence.
Two years ago, through n combine
with w. Il. Moore. of Moline. Looney
was given control of the democratic
county committee. which to an extent
with the continuation of the Moore
support - he still retains, notwith
standing that he stands repudiated
and denounced by the democrats of
the city and township of Rock Island
and absolutely without n sh;r,low of
influence here. Notwithstanding the
advantage that Looney gained two
years ago. it was all he could do to
hold the committee at its meeting
last Thursday. the country being solid
against. him while such inrOads had
been made into his representation in
Rock Island, that but for Moore's con-
tinued loyalty to him no such a result
would have attended the committees
meeting. 1t is known that many OF
the committeeman Will refuse abso-
lutely to take advantage of the oppor-
tunity that is made for dark lantern.
brace caucuses. and that the purpose
to thwart the honest expression of
democrats will thus in many instances
fail, and it may be that even If there
should be those unscrupulous enough
to undertake to put through such
schemes as are plainly contemplated
by the trainers of the call they will
hardly dare to carry it into effect in
the face of the Indignation that is pre-
vailing.

Umpire were brothers.
The visitors should present book
of rules and pair of glasses to their

The Regulars need practice to play
in such fast company as the Amigo
Giants.
The line up of the players reminded
one of a game between the Giants and
Lillputians.
A basket was needed more than a
mitt by some of the regulars yestsr-
day.
The umpire reversed his rank de-
cisions towards the last of the game

The reason why farm-reared boys
achieve success in all lines of bust
ness and the professions, is not far to
seek. 1t is due primarily to the hab-
its Of industry and thrift and self. re-
lance which he acquires in youth and
retains through manhood. The farm
boy learns to get up early and if there
is any one OF those proverbial fat
worms around, this bright bird is apt
to catch them. He has half a days

Regulars Were Defeated by the An
tigo Nine.

Sunday afternoon a large crowd
witnessed the poorest game OF ball
seen her for some time, and the home
nine was defeated by the Amigo nine
to the tune of lS to 3. The visitors
went to bat first and secured two runs
through the mufiing and bad pIxying
of part of the Regulars, and in the
Regulars half, with the bases all full,
than the rank decisions of the umpire
allowed the home boys one run. The
dirty work of the umpire continued
through the second and third innings
which took the ginger out of the Re-
gulars and the visitors piled up eleven
runs while our boys were shut out.
In the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh
innings the visitors failed TO score as
the Regulars had awoke up, but too
late to win the game, while our boys
managed to squeeze out one run in
the fourth inning. The visitors kept
the good thing agoing and trotted
around the diamond twice in the
eighth and three times in the ninth
inning which made nice total of 10
runs to their credit, while the Regu-
lars were blanked in the eighth and
making one run in the ninth and the
great agony was over.
Adams pitched good game and
was ably supported by Louie Morgan
behind the bat. Ruby Slattery did a
good stroke catching bob-uPs and Per-
sohn made a pretty running catch.
which were about all that was done
by the home team, the rest of the
plays being muffs and wild throws.
and the Regulars went down in one Of
the poorest played game of the season
and the battery received virtually no
support.
Harklerodes pitched a strong game
for the visitors and was ably support
ed behind the bat by Williams, while
their support was of the best and all
were strong on stick work, although
they didn't pound Adams any harder
than their own pitcher was touched
up. 1t was clearly game where the
Regulars were in too fast company,
and with the assistance of the umpire
in the first part of the game, the home
team had no chance of winning altho
with fair dealing the score would have
been different. The score by innings
as follows:
