IN A PACKET WAR
Captain Walter Blair Going After
Scalp of SWANS on
Illinois.
MAY SEND COLUMBIA THERE
Proposes to Retaliate for Invasion by
New David Swain at keo-
kuk.

Peoria Star: And now anothe:
steamboat war, involving Peoria boats
has been opened up and it is stated
among river men that before the sea
son has closed there will be two lines
of boats between this city and La
Sale, with one of Captain Walter
Blairs boats fighting for the trade now
held by the Swain Packet company.
For several years the SWANS have
had practically a monopoly on the
river business between here and La
Sale The Fred Swain has been the
only boat that has run regularly be
tween these two points and it is said
that this business has proven a yer
liable gold mine. Recently the SWANS
PUT a new boat, the David SWAIN" into
the service between Quincy and Keo-
kuk on the Mississippi with the ex-
pectation of capturing a large amount
of that business, and this action has
so angered the Mississippi river boat
men that they are now preparing to
strike back in a similar manner on the
Illinois, making Peoria the storm cen.
ter.
Put Columbia In.
Walter Blair, a well known Missis
sippi river man, will soon send the
Columbia to this port to enter the La
Sale trade, cutting rates and running
on similar schedule to that of the
Swain boats. On the Mississippi river
similar fight is to be waged and the
Silver Crescent has already been put
into the Quincy -Keokuk trade, with
fare of 25 cents between these two
points. Local river men declare that
with the opening of the season next
year conditions will be greatly changed
here and the prospects are that a veri-
table fleet of pleasure and packet boats
will run out of this port
The steamers st. Paul and Sidney of
the Diamond 10 line were in port this
afternoon. The Sidney went north and
the st. Paul down on it's trip TO ST
Louis
Boats down were the Lydia Van SAINT

The speaker was introduced by
Wm. B. Wilson who took tie
occasion to pay Mr.. Reed a high
compliment as an orator and thinker
upon political subjects. Mr.. Reeds
speech related almost entirely to
national matters, a large part Of 1t
being devoted to the subject Of public
ownership Of railroads, which theory
he warmly defended, Trusts and
tariff came 10 for a share of his
attention, and he closed with Bryan

than to win over those OF opposite
political faith. The speech was a

while his rough language in the pull

severity by pulpit and pew there can

his work.
In his early life Jones was wild and
dissolute. He abandoned the practice
of law, for which he was educated,
and wandered from home. Near
Eminence, Kentucky, while he was
working as a farm Land on her
fathers place, he met Miss Laura
McIlwain, a type Of the spirited
Southern girl Of the times Of the war
She promised, arainst the will Of her
family, to marry him upon condition
OF his reformation. This reformation
was attended with good many laDses,
but he finally cast his old life behiuo
him and entered the ministry ia the
mountains OF Georgia. Original in
everything, be planned his own style
