their support
John P. Sexton, candidate for police
magistrate, made a short talk. and said
that while the candidates were nomina-
ted by one party or another. the pres
ent election should be a selection of
the most capable men. He held that
the principles of democracy and of re-
publicanism are as pure today as when
they were founded, but that these par
ties often fall into the hands of de-
signing men, who use the party for
their own purposes. When the votes
are counted, and the election becomes
a business proposition of the best man
for the place, il will be the working
men who will either pay the penalty OF
reap the rewards for their choice. He
urged Mr.. Cavanaugh's election as the
man who has at heart the best inter
ests Of all classes in the city. He ask
ed the support of the voters for himself
if they considered him the best man
for the office, but urged that they vote
what they consider for their best in
Rock Island.
The reception accorded the two
speakers was in marked contrast with
that which has been given the Knox
squad throughout the city. Mr.. Cav
anaugh was cheered at each appear
ance, and Mr.. Sexton received most
hearty applause and encouragement on
all sides.

the Watertown asylum. Jirden, it was
ascertained. had escaped from the hos

that he had X-rays in his head. not
wheels, as the authorities at the insti-
tuition supposed. He said that he was
too shTewd for the officials at Water
town, and that they appreciated this.
and the only way in which they could
get the better of him was by locking
him in a cell. To this he objected
most vehcmently. He could not under
stand why the world should be de-
prived of the services OF one of his
intellect, unless it was that others
were causing his retention at the hos
pital because they were jealous of his
knowledge. Jirden was committed
from Chicago. He was taken from the
attorneys office and locked in the
county Jail and the hospital notified to
send a man for him. This was done
this afternoon.

Congressman Sulzer Calls
 Alaska Gods Country

William Sulzer, dean of the New York city congressional delegation, one of Alaska's real friends in congress, just before his departure from Seattle for this district, in an interview said Alaska is Gods country, He favors an Alaskan exposition and permanent ex- hibit at Seattle.
 He said:
 "I 10 to Alaska every summer, com ping business with pleasure. l believe Alaska to be the grandest country on earth-God's country, Seattle owes much to Alasks-more than she can ever repay. Nobody can describe Alas ka Combine all the pictures in na- natures art gallery, think Of all the mountains, all the snow-capped peaks, all the valleys, all the cascades, all the torrentisl streams rushing tumultuous- ly seaward, sll together, and you have faint glimmsr of the wonders, the greatness, the glory and the ineNpres- sible grandeur of Alaska.
 ''Of course, a n heartily in favor Of an Alaska exposition, being afriend O. Alaska and believer in that country. I will do everything in my power, both ia congress and out of it, to forward that enterprise. An Alaska exposition win give the people of the country gen erally some idea of the wonderful re- sources and vast possibilities Of the great eistrict of Alaska.
 "In my opinion Alaska will produce more mineral wealth in the next 50 years than any three states Of the Un- ion. Nothing would give the people a better idea of the wealth and resources of Alaska than an Alaska exposition held in Seattle.
 "I thl2k the government and many of the states would contribute toward an exposition, and anything that can do to make 1t a success will be done cheerfully. Of course, you know the Jamestown exposition will be held in 1901, and I would say that the Alaska exposition should be held in Seattle in l9O9.n
