There seems to be quite boom for
Governor Johnson of Minnesota for
the democratic nomination for presi-
dent in consequence of the article pub
lished in the Commoner of May II,
which states that Governor Johnson
and at the national election. This would
seem to indicate that Mr.. Bryan has
not yet decided to be a candidate AMI
like other democrats is ready to select
whoever can best unite the party, pro
vided he comes up to the democratic
requirements of ability and honesty OF
purpose.

Everybody is boosting for Greater
Rock Island.
AS matter of fact, some of the pub
lie spirited citizens of the city have ex
pressed the hope to the committee that
they had not been omitted from the as
sessment roll, simply because they had
not yet been seen. They were assure
that no one would be overlooked, and
that by the time the canvass is finished
there will he no occasion for any one
to say that he did not have an oppor
tunity to record himself as one of Rock
Islands boosters.
Not in Rock Islands history has si
much interest been manifested in :
public spirited, patriotic movement for
the betterment of the city. Greater
Rock Island is already here, for it il
the spirit of the people as much as
what they do and say that contribute;
to municipal advancement.
Rock Island has got the spirit.
Greater Rock Island is already here.
Do not let it slip back.

Where do you go?" asked the gen

Anywhere till you alght."
Every well; step in
A young lieutenant of artillery got
into the cab and sat down beside the
gentleman. who was quite old and
whose civilians clothes and quiet de-
meanor were in marked contrast with
the lieutenant's uniform and self con-
fdent air. The latter had been lunch
ing with friends, and the wine he had
drunk had impaired rosy hue to his
cheeks and stimulated his tongue
well, well, my venerable FRIEND"
he said gayly, I'm in luck. and you
are very good to let me in your cab.
I have an engagement TO meet a young
lady. | don't mind telling you-you
who have been so good TO me-that she
is my fiancee How would l look 60

And she a relative of one of the first

Whom would you call one of the
| first men in the empire?" asked the
| old gentleman.
THAT would be telling a stranger

engaged. However you may guess
a member of the reichStag?" was
| the first guess.
"a bigger man than that"
| "a colonel in the army?"
| "a great deal bigger man than a
colonel, but will admit he is a sol
der"
| The gentleman guessed number of
| generals. going higher and higher with
each guess. Not having guessed Alright.

But you have not guessed high

Il thought you said he was one OF
the first men in the empire"
| II should call Field Marshal Won
Moltke pretty big man. He is great
man. one of the greatest who have
ever lived"
Yes. very great man in the esti-
nation of the people. But If he should
| lose battle those who hurTah for him
loudest would decry him loudest. It's
hero worship"
MY friend if the law of leze males
ty were applicable to him l would re-
port you. l have a good mind to do so
any way. Who are you to speak SO dis.
respectfully of the man next in impor
lance to the emperor"

you have a position In the govern

"In what Department.

This sobered the lieutenant, but not

"A retired colonel?'
Higher rank than that"
"a general of brigade?"
Higher"
The lieutenant guessed successfully

You're folding me-"

Nonsense. There only remains Field

At that moment the cab drew up a
