Idea of Locating Powder Factory
on Rock Island Meets With
Much Disfavor
BY THE BUSINESS MEN
Association Meeting Devoted to Dis
cussion of Question-Many OBJ
jections Are Raised.

Rock Island does not want the gov
eminent 10 locate its proposed powder
factory on Rock Island arsenal, or at
least that was the general opinion OF
the members of the Rock Island Bus
mess Mems association last evening at
the meeting of the association held for
the purpose of discussing the subject.
The meeting was held at the secre-
tary'S Office in the Peoples National
bank building The subject was thor
oughly discussed, and those who ex-
pressed themselves seemed convinced
that the proposed powder plant would
be a detriment rather than benefit to
the three cities. on account of the dan
ger of explosions. 1t was dramatically
stated by one member that in such ex-
plOsions, the cause never is known,
because no one there is ever left TO
explain.
Many Miles Away.
Usually powder plants and factories
are built or 10 miles from cities or
villages. on account of the danger 1t
was pointed out that in addition to the
danger of explosions. the acid used in
the manufacture of powder will prove
q dangerous element. The fumes of
the acid will kill vegetation for con-
siderable distance from the factory,
and the waste material from the acids
should be discharged into the river. the
water would be unfit for use either in
Rock Island or Davenport. If the ma
terial should be discharged instead into
the slough. the fumes would be forced
ON Rock Island, and the city water
spoiled as we'll
To Meet With Club,
a committee of three, composed of
E B. McKOwn. c. a. Schoessell. and
DIR. E NJ Sala, was appointed to meet
this evening with the Rock Island club
when the same subject is to be under
discussion, and explain the views
brought out by last evenings discus
sion The sentiment was that while
the city is anxious TO acquire indus
tries employing as this WILL about 100
men, the Objectionable nature of this
industry makes it TO the city's interests
TO make an effort in this case to pre-
vent the location of the plant near this
city.

his body red spot and treated same with DIFF

the spot began to get larger put him under the
care Of doctors. Under their treatment the dis

longer the doctors treated him the worse it grew.
During the day It would get rough and form like
scales. At night 1t would be cracked, infamed
and badly swollen, with terrible burning and Itch

Flower Thieves.

To the Editor of The Star:
Your editorial In last nights Star on 1.-THE
Beautiful City" and your advice to us chaps
to keep our little Sx10 front yards in good
shape, so that they will be nice to look at
and please the people, Is all very nice. but
ask, what is the use? My neighbors and
myself for years have gone to the expense
and trouble of keeping yards so that
they have been the admiration of all who
have seen them but of late 1t has got so
that as soon as a flower appears some
thief takes it. Night before last we had
as nice lot of tulips as could be found:
yesterday morning every one of them had
been stolen, so it goes with the roses and
other flowers. The police might help us,
but they cannot be every place at the same
time. Again 1 ask, what Is the use?
