BODY that OF
EDWARD STADER
Remains Found in Water at SearIe's
Landing Identified as Rock
Island Young Man.
HIS DEATH Is A MYSTERY
Nothing to Show Whether It Was Ac-
cident or Suicide Had Been
Missing Over a Week.
HIS DEATH IS A MYSTERY

AS was feared by the police yester-
day AFTERNOON, the fioater found in the
river below Andalusia proved to be
Edward Stader of this city, who had
been missing since week ago Thurs
day. Coroner L. V. Eckhart was sum-
moned yesterday afternoon by tele-
phone to Searle's landing, where a
man named J. l.. Preston, an employee
of one of the many small saw mills
along the river at that point, had found
the body floating in the water and TAX
en- it ashore. The coroner went down
at once, but was unable to hold the
inquest last evening, as there were not
enough jurors available. This morn
ing. however, the jury was completed
and the inquest held. There were
number of articles on the person of
the dead man that left little doubt as
TO his identity, and the verdict ar
rived at was that an unknown man.
presumably Edward Stader of Rock
Island. came to his death by drowning
in the Mississippi river The body was
later positively identified.
Missing for a Week.
Mr.. Stader was about 80 years old,
and was we'll known in the tri-cities.
He had been a journeyman barber
here for many years. He was addicted
to periodical spells of drinking, and
for week before his disappearance he
had been under the close surveillance
lof his parents. A week ago Thursday
he escaped their watchful eyes and
got out of his room. He went to q
nearby barber shop, and while there
told the barber that he was about to
leave for Silvis to take a position
there No one had seen him from the
barber shop until his body was found
The coroner's jury was unable to de-
| termine whether it was a case of sui
eide or not, but several things point in
that direction. Members of the family
state that they know of nothing that
would support the suicide theory. eX
cept that the young man knew of his
weakness and despaired of ever over
coming it. 1t is thought that he either
went directly to the river and jumped
lin after leaving the barber shop, OF
that he first became intoxicated ant
then fell into the river, presumably
off the Rock Island bridge.
/ Native of City.
| Mr. Stader was born in this city il
1873. and had spent practically all hi:
life here. He was the son of StepheI
ii. Stader, COZ Thirty-eighth street, anC
is survived by his parents, three broth
ers, Rudolph of Lyons, Iowa, and Ben
jamin and Stephen and sister Anna
at home.
The remains will be brought to thi
city some time this evening.

WHITES COMING .
IS OF INTEREST
To LABOR men

Laboring people. especially union
laboring men, are interested in the
coming of John z. White. Topographic
cal union orator, to Rock Island to-
morrow night. He speaks at the Rock
Island rink under the auspices of the
democratic county committee. and
should have big audience. as he no
doubt will.
Secretary George A. Cooke of the
democratic state central committee
states that there has been a great de-
mand for Mr. White throughout the
state and The people OF Rock Island
should consider themselves fortunate
in securing his presence.
County Chairman c. ]. Smith today
received the following from State Sec
rotary Cooke. assigning two more good
democratic speakers TO Rock Island
this week:

have been the result of lack OF conf
dence, and lack of sufficient money in
circulation. He explained that the
money is boarded in banks to protect
the banks against runs, and his explain.
alton led up to the solution-the bank
guarantee plan. He argued that if the
state. the big insurance companies, and
other big depositors demand a suaran-
tee, the little deposition, whose 500
means more to him than the insurance
company's 100000 means to it, should
also have the right to demand a guar
antee, and receive assurance backed
up by collateral to show that he will
receive 100 cents on the dollar for his
deposit.
He discredited the argument that
such a plan will encourage careless
ness in banking, showing that the
3tockholder is not to be guaranteed I'M
der this plan. and if The bank methods
are careless, the stakeholder loses.
The stakeholder and director of the
bank will not be likely to relax and
permit bad investments under the pro-
posed guarantee plan any more than
under the present system.
Government by Injunction.
Mr.. McEniry also devoted some time
to a discussion of government by in
junction. maintaining that it is emin-
entity wrong to issue injunctions in Ia
Dor disputes under conditions where in
functions would not issue in cases not
involving labor disputes. He showed
that it is a fundamental principle that
injunctions shall not issue where there
| Is any other adequate remedy at law,
| and that in every labor case, if the con-
ditions set forth in the application for
an injunction are true, the men against
whom the injunction is sought are
guilty of crime. and therefore the com
| plainant has other adequate remedy al
law,
Mr.. McEniry concluded his address
by discussing briefly the tariff issue
| and the conditions existing in Illinois
| He spoke forcefully of the administra
| tons of the last two republican COVER
nors, particularly as to state institu
| lions, and made a plea for the election
OF General Stevenson as a man who
will not stoop to the appointment OF
incapable men to care for the unfor
| tunate people of the state merely be
cause of their political pull" He as
sured the audience that General Ste
! venson is man of too fine a charac
/ ter to fail in his responsibility as gov
| ernor and his duty toward the ward;
of the state.
Il DIR. u. G. J. Myers Heard.
II DR.. r. c. ]. Myers was the las
Il speaker of the evening. He enlarged
on the argument in favor of a pSvsi
clan for coroner, and paid a fine trib
ute to DR.. NJ. J. O'Hern, the demo
cratic candidate for the place. Dr.
Myers expressed the hope that thu
time will come soon in Illinois whel
no one but a physician will be eligible
| for the Office of coroner. DR.. O'Herl
he characterized as man eminentl
fitted for the place, and one whom tn
people of the county should feel gla
to have the opportunity to employ.

peat his statement in regard TO the
salary fixed by the supervisors, declar-
ing that he does not think it proper
for a man to criticise or complain
when salary of $4,000 year is pro-
vided for an Office to which he is not
yet elected. He expressed himself sat-
isfied with the salary, which he deems
ample in view of the present situation
in county finances.
WbeeIan states Position.
H. l.. Wheelan, candidate for minor
lily representative, expressed himself
as standing squarely on the democrat
ic platform, and said, IF elected l will
represent the district conscientiously,
and regardless of politics. l have no
special Interests, fads, or isms, but
propose to serve all interests in the
district"
Qualified for Coroner.
DR.. NJ. ]. O'Hern, candidate for cor
oner, was present at the meeting, and
made a brief address. DR.. O'Hern
discussed the situation relative TO the
Office for which he is a candidate, and
compared the professions of physician
and undertaken as furnishing qualifica-
lions for the Office of coroner. Dr.
O'Hern presented new argument in
favor OF the selection of physician,
and one that has much merit He
maintains that physician, filling the
office of coroner, can keep down the
county expenses. He cited cases where
the expense could have been elimina-
ted had the coroner been a physician,
and referred to the law in Ohio max
ing it necessary for the coroner to be
a physician. and the condition in Chi
cago, where there is physician asso
ciated with the coroner'S Office. as cor
oner's physician. While the super
visors are growing gray over the prob
lem of raising enough money for the
county, it would help some if a little
thought were given 10 keeping down
the expenses, and here is one place
where it could be DONE" said Dr.
O'Hern. The physician concluded his
remarks by promising that if elected
he will discharge the duties OF the Of
ice 70 the best OF his ability. and that
he will administer the Office in a thor
ough and conscientious manner.
Talks of Tariff.
c. S. Trevor of Moline made very
happy speech, his remarks being de-
voted mainly 10 the tariff and money
questions. He made a plain, logical
address. and showed conciusively the
merit of the position taken by the
democratic party on both of these prop
tositions. His illustrations were taken
| from local conditions, and did much
to make his arguments clear in the
minds of his hearers.

Hon William NIcEniry of this city

RALLY is HELD
AT EAST moline
Good Crowd Turns Out to Hear
Speeches at Democratic Meet
ing at Currys Hall.
PARTY CANDIDATES TALK
r. r. Reynolds, DR.. O'Hern, Hon. Viii
liam McEniry, C. S. Trevor and
Others Discuss Issues.

Notwithstanding the unfavorable
weather conditions, and the handicap
under which the meeting was held,
there was crowd of good size and
much enthusiasm at the democratic
rally OF the citizens of East Moline,
Watertown and Silvis, held last even
ing at Curry's hall in East Moline.
Over 125 interested voters gathered at
the hall to hear the discussion of coun-
ty and state and national issues. May
or Johnson of East Moline called the
meeting 10 order, and introduced the
chairman of the evening, P S. Dun
bar of East Moline.
Robert X. Reynolds, candidate for
states attorney, was the first speaker,
and he made one of his usual business
like addresses He spoke plainly of
the situation, and compared his own
qualifications for the position ne asked
the county to employ him to fill, and
those of his opponent, l.. NJ. Magill.
The election of states attorney is
simply the employment OF an attorney
for the county, and the voter should
look at the matter in the same way he
would if seeking an attorney for his
own needs" argued Mr.. Reynolds. He
based all his argument on this posi-
ton. and showed clearly where his own
experience has better qualified him for
the place. He exhibited a docket of
the present term of the circuit court, III
which Mr. Masill appears in but sin
gle case, and Mr.. Reynolds has so diff
ferent suits. Mr. Reynolds spoke of
Mr. Magill's court record. but did not
mention the fact that he himself has
such large number of cases on hand,
until some one in the audience asked.
IF Magill has but one case, how many
have you?''
Satisfied With Salary.
Mr. Reynolds was enthusiastically
applauded, and after the meeting was
personally greeted by many. who said
That's business. We want TO hire an
attorney, not a politician"
Mr.. REYNOLDS took occasion to re
