in this city, were installed last week
by District Deputy President Mrs.
Bertha Proll, assisted by a corps of
acting assembly officers. There was a
large attendance of members and a
notable number of visitors. At the
close of the ceremony there was the
presentation OF a most handsome dia-
mond-set jewel of the rank of past
noble grand to Dora Campbell in
recognition of her services to the
lodge while in the several chairs she
passed through. She was also pre-
scented with beautiful flowers. and
roses and carnations were given in
profusion to the new and the retiring
officers, the handsome new recording
secretary being particularly favored.
The installing deputy was presented
with floral tokens and was highly COM
mended for the impressive and correct
manner in which she discharged the
duty imposed upon her by the ritual.
The new officers of the lodge are:

AS to the BENEFITS photographers can
obtain from art instruction, 1 must re-
fer to the success of Miss Adelaide
Hanscom. Her Illustrations of the Ru-
baiyat of Omar Khayyam have at
tracted the greatest attention in Lon
don, and solely on account OF their ar
tistic quality. The Photo gram" gives
several pages to the reproduction Of
these pictures and refers to them In
the highest praise. Miss Hanscom was

of her success.
There has been much discussion late
ly as to what constitutes a profess
sionai artist The pros and cons are
everlastingly debatabie. and shall not
be considered here. but have heard OF
a ruling recently made by a prominent
art society that should be highly inter
esting to many. This ruling was 10
the effect that no artist could main
tain his professional standing IL he
gave instruction in a professional
school Personally, feel that the eth
les or the ruling are good. If pro-
fessional artists would take greater
eognizance OF "unprafessionaI conduct''
than they do it would be OF benefit to
the painters and sculptors OF the
world.

May BE MAJORITY
Indie atoms Point to Choice OF
This Plan by the Republican
County Committee.
POPULAR CHOICE PLURALITY
Foss Candidacy Looked Upon by Ian
dee Men as Urged in Favor of
MagiIl-Split Swedish Vote.

What the republican county commit
tee will do in passing upon the ques-
ton of majority or plurality nomin2
ton will be an uncertainty until ii
holds another meeting, which will be
soon. but Indications point to a larger
portion of the members voting for the
majority plan. Whether it is prefera-
Bile or not, and whether primary is
more easily manipulated than a con
vention, the popular idea seems to be
in favor of the plurality nomination.
There are arguments against it, plenty
of them, but probably there are as
many against the majority scheme.
The cause of popularity of the plurali-
ty privilege can not be attributed to
any one thing. The fact that it is a
new way of nominating, taking the
manipulation away from the conven-
ton floor. catches some. The fact that
it seems simpler and is simpler where
there is a large field of candidates APP
peals to others.
Committeeman Honorary job.
With the adoption of the primary
system the job of city committeeman
becomes n less desirable one, and the
pleasures of manipulation enjoyed for
merly are now changed to onerous du-
ties of election day. Heretofore there
was the question of setting the date for
the primaries and the calling of the
convention, in which one candidate o.:
another might be favored These du-
ties brought on other complications,
and the man or men in control could
-
adoption of the primary in city cleo
tons removes all of these pleasures or
displeasures as the case may have
been With the adoption of the plural
ity rule in nominations the duties of
delegates to the city convention be
come those of men whose work is al
ready done before the body assemblies,
so there is little advantage in being
able to control the caucus which names
the delegates.
FOss Candidacy.
The candidacy of G. w. Foss for the
senatorial nomination, which has been
talked of considerably, no official an
nouncement having yet been made, is
looked upon as Magill movement
With f. a. Landee in the field against
him in Moline, it becomes a necessity
that n candidate be brought forward
who can at least split the Swedish
vote, and the urgent demands made
upon Professor Foss are believed by
the Landee men to be for this pur-
pose,as well as to take the Rock Island
vote away from Landee. In a three
cornered contest of this kind Mr.. Ma
gill's chances would be materially in
creased
At the meeting of the republicans
OF the Seventh ward delegates to the
city convention were named and the
committeeman selected are Herman
Doering, J. E. Larkin and Roy Schofer.
