Chairman Thompson is arrang.
ing to call a meeting of the State
Executive Committee to take up
the question Of a Senatorial pri-
mary. About the only thing that
the State Committee could reason
able do would be to recommend to
the county committees that they
call primary election at some
specified time, and the presump-
is that this will be done, the date
of the general election in Noyem-
Der, 1906, to be designated as the
proper time to decide that matter.
Taylor will not complain, however.
When it comes to vote of
the people he can easily defeat
any man in the State at any stage
of the game. The only way that
politicians can hope to beat lay
Tor is to elect Representatives who
are opposed to him and who
are not too scrupulous to vote
against the wishes of the great
majority Of the people. That is
the reason why they do not want
an early primary. The Repre-
sentatives first is what they want
and the friends of the primary
can look out for themselves.

leaves much to the Imagination, but
at the same time it tells quite a story
with considerable clearness. Someone,
back in Peoria, had an uneasy con.
science. Because of deception or theft
or in some other manner which now
appeared dishonest to the party in
question, the person whose motto is

owed the Boston store "a cents. Only
by wiping out the debt could con
science be eased, and so the stamps
were forwarded TO Davenport, with the
single word of explanation.

RAILROAD NOTES
New Engines Arrive.

Six new passenger engines were add
ed To the stock of the Rock Island sys-
TEN during last week. The last as
signment was received Friday at New
Shops These are fast engines and are
of the Atlantic 1000 type and are cap
able of making an average OF IS miles
an hour. The numbers range from
1011 to 1916. In every respect these
new engines are like the old 1000's and
are of the same type. The only differ
ence is the wheels are lower and the
engine is longer. They have four drive
wheels and d trailer. which is under
the cab. The trailer is covered and
only the springs. are visible. In Europe
the drive wheels and the trailer are
covered, which adds 10 the protection
of them. One great difference between
these and the old ones is that these
are more compact and do not have
such a monstrous appearance. They
have a peculiar whistle, which sounds
very low. but is exceedingly penetrat
ing.
