The Democratic County Ticket.

The democratic county ticket in the
pending campaign is conceded to be
one of the strongest in every sense of
the word which the party has ever pre-
scented to the people of the county.
Cornelius Donovan. the candidate for
sheriff, is an ideal man for the Office
and with so conspicuous and decided
advantages over his opponent on the
republican side. his election is already
admitted by those familiar with local
political conditions. John Schafer.
the nominee for county treasurer. is
one of the soundest and best known
men of Rock Island county. Having
some years ago conducted the same
Office with eminent distinction and sat
isfaction, his record compares striking
~ with that of the candidate who sur
prised even his own party by capturing
the nomination again for the Office III
the conduct of which he made a farce.
F. A GustafSon whom the democrats
have selected for the office of county
clerk, has proven his worth in many
positions of public trust in Moline,
where he resides, and in this day
cry of ''out with the court house ring"
he presents all the qualifications for a
new administration of this important
office.
In the direction of the campaign in
the county. Chairman w. c. Maucker
of the democratic county committee
has been surrounded by the committee
with an exceptionally representative
executive committee in the selection
of c. B. Marshall. T. J. Medill, and Mr.
Maucker himself in Rock Island; An
drew Olson. DR. r. c. J. Meyer and
Patrick Mullane in Moline; and Rob-
ert WOODBURY.. George NJ. Luken, and
Thomas f. Cole from the country dis
tricts.
So that from every point of view
geographically and as regards su;
perior fitness. the ticket and the party
organization back of it appeals TO the
people of the county who desire chang
ed conditions and the right men on
guard.

Kansas City Star: When Secretary
Wilson joined Secretary Taft in his
stand for tariff revision and repudiated
the standpat sophistry of letting well
enough alone, he threw a bomb into
the forces of the laissez faire doctrine.
The secretary emphasized a great evil
that has grown out of our present sys-
tenn of tariffs. II do not think any
votes are to be made for the republi-
can party" said Mr.. Wilson, 'by de-
Tending the policy of selling goods
cheaper abroad than at home" This
abuse has been emphasized much of
late. but its Importance can not be
brought out too strongly.

She Found Him.

Mrs. Elizabeth Karner at StOnefOrI
ILL.,, according to the Peoria Star, lost
her husband some years ago, that is to
say. he ran away from her. She turned
all her effects into money and set out
in quest of him. She spent most of her
money. when the other day in Peters
burg, Ind, she came upon him face to
face, and grabbing him, yelled for as
sistance. The unfortunate man tried
to break away, whereupon the city
marshal arrested him. Lizzie wanted
him thrown into the penitentiary, be-
cause, she said. when he ran off he
took $500 belonging to her, but the
authorities refused 10 comply with her
request.
In the meantime KaTner succeeded in
making love to her to such an extent
that she abandoned all proceedings,
and tucking her recreant husband I'M
der her arm, took him back to Stone
fort, where. let us hope, the old adage
will be repeated, and they lived hap

Minute Strategic Map.

Reports received from various mill
tary sources this year show that sub
stantiaI progress is being made with
what is known as the progressive mil
big compilation made by the army en-
gineers, and is intended to provide ulti-
mately an accurate and detailed map
of strategic value of the entire coun-
try. For a time it was considered by
some officers that the map should be
made in secret. and that no informa-
ton of the work should be divulged.
but it has now come to be pretty well
known that such a map is in course of
preparation. especially as all the COM
handing generals of departments and
divisions have referred to the matter
and reported on advancement made.

and will be copied and filed at various
headquarters, besides being kept in
