That the spirit of the booster is
spreading, or has spread, through all
parts of the city and to all classes of
citizens, was demonstrated most en-
phaticaIy today when the movement
was taken up independently by en-
ployes in the stores of L. S. McCabe e
Co., and Young & McCombs, and sub
scription lists on a smaller scale were
circulated. This new movement is a
ent of the activity of the committee
which has in hand the work of raising
the 100000 fund. The sentiment
shown by the employees of these two de-
partment stores is in evidence in other
institutions and clerks in other mer-
early in the week similar independent
subscription clubs will be formed. The
citizens of Rock Island realize that ad
Vancement for the city means greater
opportunities and advantages for every
citizen, and particularly those who
have material interests here. The pro
ject on hand is partnership PROPOSE.
ton, in which every citizen is a par
ner, and will reap the benefits. ReaIiz
ing this, the citizens are enthusi astic
ally taking hold of the matter to push
the city and bring these benefits t.
the cimmunity and to themselves.
Work Progressing We'll.
Every day of the canvass for the
100000 fund is proving a better one
than the preceding, and the completion
of the fund is certainty. The commit
tees have worked with a view to test
ing the sentiment of the persons less
interested in a material way in the
