SQUIBS ABOUT
LOCAL POLITICS

One might consider the Unions
boost of Knox in its issue of yester-
day as a cruel bit of sarcasm, if the
sheet had ever been suspected of such
a trait.
Now. when it comes to being honest
with yourself. is there any reason why
j. w. Cavanaugh is not as a matter OF
fact the best qualified of any man run
ming for the mayoralty of Rock Island
in the present campaign?
The Union contrasts Knox with Nc
Caskrin, but it fails to show why the
latter does not possess a notable ad-
vantage at that. for in the minds OF
many an experiment could be no worse
than a quantity twice tried and found
hopelessly lacking. But what's the use
of talking when il is considered that
neither OF the candidates will figure
conspicuously after the votes are count
ed
The alternating system is about all
in. The people have determined it is
time TO call a halt.
The democratic aIdermanic ticket is
one of the best ever nominated by any
party in the city of Rock Island The
men are all strong in their respective
wards. Blochlinger and Simpson in the
First. Naab in the Second. GTotegut in

Orrin Leonard is the right man for
collector. Give him your vote and
you will place it where it is deserved

There mover was a time when the
people of Rock Island had reason to
do so much thinking on the mayoral
" question as they have this year.
Rock Island has reached the point
where qualification should weigh.
Consider all the men, and then act ac-
cording TO your judgment for the best
interests of the city.

The democrats are to hold meetings

II is gratifying TO note that the re
pub.icans of Rock Island are about as
pronounced in their conviction that
the only way to break up TIE combine
business is at the polls. as the people
generally are.
The only question is how far the
party lash and the money bag may

YALE MEN DENY THE BITE.

New Haven. April 19.-The mem- bers of the Yale swimming team yes terday indignantly denied that there was any foundation for the charges emanating from the University Ur Pennsylvania athletes that one O. sbe Yale swimmers in last Saturday nights contest win he University of Pennsylvania men at Philadelphia buried his teeth in the breast of Thomas s. Mcdonald, Pennsylvania 8 goal keeper The coach of the Tale swimmers stated last night that no Yale man would be guilty of trying to bite any athlete or any one else.
 This coach. Max Schwartz, declared that Yale, in consequence of the ex- ceedingly rough treatment the 1aie men received from the University of Pennsylvania swimmers had decided to cut out the University of Pennsyl- vania from Yale's visiting list here after. Schwartz also said that the manager of the Pennsylvania team lost his head and wanted to whip Neal of Yale. Then Schwartz said that one of the Pennsylvania men in his rough ness kicked Manager Curtiss of the Yale team in the ear and split his ear drum.

 Miss Georgianna Bishop Of the Br0oklawn Country club, Bridgeport. and national woman golf champion of the United States, will sail for Eng land about May 16 to play in the championship of the English Ladies Golf union and visit some of the fa- nous links. It will be her second wis., 1t to the classic" links, as she was in Scotland and England with members of her family iii 1902, but this time there Is definite object in view. Miss Bishop will be accompanied by Miss F. Q. GriscOm, our champion of 1900; the Misses Margaret and Harriet Cur tis of Boston, and two more from that city, Miss Mary B. Adams and Miss Emily Lockwood. The entire party will be chaperoned by Mrs Clement A.

 America is also to be represented, as has been stated before, by Miss Fanny Osgood, champion of the Wo- mems Golf association of Boston, who is now abroad with her family and golfing on the links of the Paris Golf club at La Boulie, Versailles, and by another tourist, Miss Florence Borden of the Fall River Golf club, who won the women's championship of California last summer and is also now on the other side of the Atlantic.
