FRUIT PROSPECTS
THE BEST IN YEARS
Trees Full of Vitality and Frost Dan
ger Nearly Over-Farmers Say
Rain is Needed.

Samuel Lorton, the Davenport nur-
seryman, pronounces the fruit outlook
for this vicinity the best in his recol-
lection at this season. After the rest
of last year the trees are full of vi
tally and those in blossom are loaded
with bloom. Tomorrow is the last day
of the average season of killing frosts,
and if damaging frost occurs after
ward it will be out of the ordinary. 1t
is also true that the ground is so dry
that-a considerable freeze would be
withstood without damage Should it
rain,s however, the danger would be
greater.

VILLAGES VOTING
ON LOCAL OPTION
Several in County Registering Prefer
ence at Local Election-WiIl
Have No Effect in County.


Elections are being held in the vii
lagos throughout the county today for
the choice of trustees, clerk and po-
lice magistrate. There is no general
issue, though in number of cases
the local option question is again be-
ing submitted. Where the township
election verdict was dry it is doubtful
whether a vote the other way will
have any effect, Attorney General
Stead having given an opinion that
the result in the larger district would
control the smaller. or that the village
must abide by wishes of the township
of which it is part.
In case a village should go wet in
a dry township, however, the trustees
would have justification for licensing
saloons should the local option law
be knocked out before the supreme
court

DEBT NOw ABOUT $50
But the Humane Society Has Pledges
of More Than That Amount.

The Rock Island County Humane
society met last evening at the Har-
per house and as it was special
meeting and four were present no re-
ports from the officers were made eX-
cepting as to the debt of the society
which is at present about $3.50.
Enough pledges have been made, how
ever, to cover this deficiency and an
attempt will be made to collect all of
them this week.
Nothing was heard from Moline in
regard to joining and accordingly the
regular meeting night was changed
back to the first Thursday in the
month from which it was changed to
accommodate the Moline people. The
next meeting will be May Z and will
be as usual at the Harper house.
