Complete Man For the City.

Maps OF Rock Island county and OF
the city have been drafted by the
Iowa Publishing company of Daven
port. The company obtained enough
advance orders for the county map TO
meet the expense of the work, but
before the city map is completed it
will expect an appropriation from the
Rock Island council. II is claimed
by Mr.. Hubinger. the president of the
company, that the city of Rock Island
has never had such a map as a city
of its size and Importance should have

THERMOMETER READINGS.

The official weather bureau indica-
tor registered % below zero at S
O'Clock this morning-the coolest
| since Feb. 9, 1899. when the thermom-
eter fell 10 % below. AS will be noted
by the foregoing table there was a
steady decline in temperature through
he night. There was a fall of IL de-
grees between O'Clock last night and
O'Clock this morning. The predic-
ion for tomorrow is that there will be
4 rising temperature. although il will
continue intensely cold during tonight.
The effect of the cold was more par
icularly noted in the schools of the
city. many parents not permitting
their children TO face the intense cold
Of the morning. The absences were
he more numerous in the lower
grades. the older pupils showing a
commendable interest in their school
work by attending TO the whole en-
rollment, with but comparatively few
exceptions.
Railroads are Affected.
With the great drop in temperature
last evening railway traffic suffered.
anu Trains que Ill ftOCk lSldlu tulS
morning were several hours late. The
mail train from Chicago which carries
the morning Chicago papers did not
arrive until noon. 1t is almost impOs-
sible to keep the steam up to the re-
quired pressure when the temperature
drops below zero. and ii is on this ac-
count that the runs are so greatly de-
layed. Trains departing on the Rock
Island left this city about on time, no
stops being made to- wait for connect
ing trains. The telephone and tele-
graph service suffered also as many of
the batteries were rendered useless by
the severe cold

warrant, but no forecast can be made at present concerning what will be done. The management figures that it has a large amount of territory above the 500-foot level which is worthy of thorough exploration, and since a large portion of the Wolver- inc & Arizona property lies in ground whose surface has a much higher al titude than the Broken Promise ciaIm, it is figured that the extension of drifts into this ground is at a depth sufficiently great to warrant exploi- tation.
 Since the Wolverine & Arizona owns it's property, and has no dan ger of extinction hanging over it on account of expiring options, the man. agement feels fully justified in talk ing its time about attaining greater depth, since such a policy represents the saving in expense already men tioned and can be profitably used in exploring at the depth where work is now in progress. If the property were held on options and only a linn ited time were left in which to carry on the work or forfeit the right it would be practically imperative that depth be secured at once and explora- tions from that point be conducted. But to do so under the present con- diiOns when there are no forfeit ures to be made, would involve an unnecessary and inordinately heavy expenditure of funds
 The company has in the treasury cash sufficient to conduct it's opera. uons for a considerable time and in addition to this it has S5,0OO shares of the 100000 share capitalization. The stock of the company which has been issued is also assessable to the extent of $45O,OOO. Thus it can be seen that the company is so well en- Irenched financially that it can car " on vast amount of work,

BACK TO THE PEOPLE.
Ghy MT. Bryan's Primary Pledge Should Appeal to Democrats

 To interest the Democratic masses i1 the party primaries and in this way 10 place the power for determiping pol. icies in their hands-this is the aim of Mir. Bryan when he raises the cry, Back to the peopler'
 Mir. Bryan's utterances in his Des Moines speech and in the Interview given out from Lincoln are in line with the plan for primary organization set on foot by him. This, it is explained. is in no sense an effort at ''reorganiza- tiOn' of the party, nor does it involve any pledge to support any specific doc Urine or principle It is simply an ef- fort to interest all Democrats in the primaries of the party with a view to insuring the shaping of the party plat form in 1908 by the direct expression of the individual voters. Looking to this end. Mir. Bryan has prepared q primary pledge" simple and straight forward in it's wording pledge which. it is hardly necessary to say, no Demo crat need hesitate to take. This pledge reads as follows:
 'I promise to attend all the primaries of my party to be held between now and the next Democratic national con vention, unless unavoidably prevented. and to use my influence to secure 9 clear, honest and straightforward dec iaration of the party's position on every question upon which the voters of the party desire to speak
 This means nothing more or less than individual activity looking to party honesty. In it's essence it cOntem- plates the extension to the Democratic party of the nation of the primary plan which has worked so successfully here in Georgia. It simply recognizes the right of the Democratic voters to control the policy of their party and to determine it's position upon public questions. It aims at honesty and sin cerity in politics, and certainly the Democratic party must stand for such honesty and sincerity if it hopes to ap- peal successfully to the country. It means that the party shall in it's future action and future utterances voice the prevailing sentiment of the masses of Democratic voters and that it shall take the country into it's confidence.
 It may be there will be some to cry out that this is but an effort on the part of Mir. Bryan to secure control of the party. There are some people in this country. though their number .is precious small these days, who would charge the Nebraskan with ulterior mo- lives every time he utters' his prayers. But even these men cannot question the fairness and honesty of his proposi- ton that the policies of the party shall be determined by following the views of the majority or the practical good sense in the suggestion that the way to ascertain these views is by direct ex- pression of the Democratic voters of the country through party primaries.
 This. and only this, is the meaning of back to the people" as we understand it.-Atlanta Constitution.

 We hope President Roosevelt is not so far away from civilization yet that he will not read of the sale in London of British war vessels which cost orlgi- nally SIS. .OO0. GOO for S60O. GOO. The incl dent illustrates admirably the financial folly of building more war vessels than are actually needed at a given time We can't build war vessels for re- mote need as we can store up coal in our cellars since the war vessels would have lost their usefulness hy the time the remote need had become an actual need"
