Hope in Democracy.

Charles w Eliot. president of IIar
ward university in "a recent address
said: The progress of democracy
will be the great future of the advance
in civilization in the present century
Though critics of democracy claim that
democracy has destroyed some of the
finer characteristics of the older days
such as reverence of children toward
parents. pupil toward teacher. the peo-
pie toward their rulers. there is in all
these relations more genuine relation
than formerly. although their relations
have changed
NO nation in the world has such
reverence for women as have the men
Of the great republic Our reverence
for symbols has diminished but not for
the ideals which these material signs
of religion and love of country stand
for.
Such a belief as this toward the eff
feet of democracy is the only one con-
sistent with a belief in the permanent
duration of democracy and belief in
the premaneRce of civilization

The United States SenatorshIp.

Richard Yates, ex-governor of Illinois
and who is now a candidate for United
States senator in opposition to Shelby
NJ. Culiom. the present incumbent. has
been writing to his friends asking them
for a plan of campaign.
Senator Cullom, who is also a candi-
date. is not asking for letters of advice
of that kind. but he is asking for votes
from the fellows he expects to be elect
ed to the legislature.
Neither seems to know just where
he is and it is not improbable that a
third man. Gov. Deneen or General
Hamlin, may slip in and take the toga.

Another worthy Project.

The projected Rock Island auditori
um is another worthy enterprise, that
should command, as. it is confidently
believed il Will command, the endorse
ment and the substantial support OF
the people of the city.
And when the people of Rock Island
give their cooperation to a public en-
terpTise il wins.
This has been shown. and is again
being shown today in the park devel-
opment undertakings, and is was par
ticularly manifest on the occasion of an
enterprise very similar to the audito-
rum propo,iition-the new theateI
scheme. Wien the idea was first
preached to contribute $4,000 to the
furthering of a plan by which Rock
Island would secure modern ground
floor theater. there were many who
doubted the city's capability of such an
accomplishment.
But with proper effort and public
spirit and liberality, it won.
And so will the auditorium win.
For there is much to encourage an
undertaking of this 2<ind. Already a
number of conventions. national, state,
and tri-state in chara cter. have been
secured for the coming year. Others
are likely TO come.
The theater has its advantages, but
it does not possess the opportunities
or the accommodations TO great gath
erings that an auditorium does. The
auditorium's uses are manifold, and
Rock Island is a city CT manifold in
ducements and attractions.
Rock Island needs an auditorium
and ii must have it.
