Prosperity Speech in Front of Steel
Mill That Was Shut Down.
Mr.. Taft spoke from platform In
the steel mill yard at Mingo Junction
in Ohio. The steel mill was closed.
All the mills there are closed. Mr.
Taft made prosperity speech. When
he climbed again on the rear platform
CT his car some one remarked in his
hearing that all the mills were closed.
Taft turned a startled face to General
Hollingsworth.
Il didn't know that" he said. why
didn't you tell me?"
The general patted him on the arm
In soothing way and said: 1T is
much better that you didn't. You
made just the sort of speech that was
needed here"
Mr.. Taft retorted sharply: I'm the
future l want all the information. l
had something to say to these people
if they are out of work
He seems to have speeches for all
occasions, and as they are all read
from manuscript you can drop in your

FLlM-FLAMMINc RAILROAD MEN
'Deeeitfui Pamphlet Being Circulated
by Republican National Com
mittee.

A treacherous and underhand at
tempt to hoodwink railroad men by
means of labor fakirs in the employ
of the republican national committee
has been discovered in Chicago.
A million copies of pamphlet
which has no mark of its origin in the
secret railroad mems bureau" main
tanned at republican headquarters, !
Madison avenue, New York, are being
distributed among the railway en-
ployes of the country.
The pamphlet bears union label
and seems to emanate from a worthy
and philanthropic member OF the
brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen-A.
B. Carhart of Jersey City. The real
author or supervising intellect is that
stalwart friend of labor, Ben E. Cha
pin, editor of "The Railroad Employe, !"
of Newark, N. j., VINO Is managing the
railroad mems bureau" for the re-
publican national committee.
This interesting document has on
its cover a picture of a train brought

err marked government ownership"

Must Make Report.
There is likely TO be trouble for
plumbers if the ordinance relating to
the tapping of water mains is not OBJ
served. The attention of the council
to the violation of the regulations was
called by the city clerk, and it was
stated that, although the plumbing
firms have had blanks on which to
make reports, not single report has
been made in two years. The result is
confusion in the waterworks depart.
ment, and difficulty in handling the
waterworks accounts. The city attor-
ney was instructed to investigate the
matter, and if there is no legal diff

QUARRY CASE
GOES over FOR
ANOTHER WEEK
Council Defers Action Until
Next Meeting to Allow Time
for Settlement.
CONTRACTORS IN PROTEST
Take Moline Stone company's Part in
ControVersy-More About the
Cost of the Sewer.

The city council made UP for lost
time last evening, and after a recess
of three weeks, it held a session that
lasted for several hours. The Moline
Stone company controversy was not
finally disposed of, another week be-
ing allowed in the hope that a settle
ment may be reached between the
company and the adjoining property
owners. A new side of the PROPOSE
ton was presented in a communication
from nine contractors, in which it was
urged that the quarry operations be
allowed TO continue. The contractors
explained that the company furnishes
practically all OF the lime stone used
Tor building and concrete purposes in
the city, and that it is essential to the
welfare of the city that the company
be permitted to continre to operate.
1t is stated that if the quarry is closed
the result would be materially in
creased prices for stone, as this is the
only lime stone quarry operated at
the present time in Rock Island. The
communication concludes by urging
that the company be encouraged rath-
er than handicapped.
There was also communication
from the Stone company, asking that
the city vacate all but the south So
feet of the alley involved. 1t is ex.
planned that this alley is of no value
to the city. 1t will be remembered
that the company has encroached some
distance on this alley, and that the
bridge which the company was to con-
struct over the alley, under the ordi-
nance granting it the right to eXcavate
10 feet of the alley, has not been built
Attached to the company's modest re-
quest that the alley be vacated, was
an ordinance to provide for this vaca-
ton. Alderman Lawler, who as chair
man of the ordinance committee sub
mitted the matter, brought the propo-
sition up for consideration and moved
the adoption of the ordinance. Alder
men Smith and Ellinwood protested,
and the matter was laid over for a
week under the rules.

BOY TRAVELS FAR
Harold Henley of Davenport,
Who Disappeared Week
Ago, Returns Home.
SAYS He WAS THREATENED
Went to Clinton, Sioux City, Chicago,
Omaha and Finally Back to
His Parents on $50.

Harold Henley, 11-year-old son of
S. F. Henley, $50 Esplanade avenue,
Davenport. is home after week to a
day spent on the road. During that
time he has visited many places and
his parents have been worrying them
selves i'll and imagining all sorts of
dire happenings to him. Harold
reached home last night. He says he
vent first to Clinton. He was accom-
panied when he left the city by We're
Sears, another boy of about his own
age, but the Sears boy tired of the
trip before reaching Clinton and re-
turned home. Harold kept on, board
ing a Northwestern train at Clinton
and starting on a peculiar trip. He
went to Sioux City, Chicago, back to
Omaha and finally to Clinton and back
to Davenport But few hours were
put in in each city.
Cost just $50.
When he left home the boy had $50
of his own and this he expended, the
last cent being gone when he reached
Bettendorf and being compelled to
walk the remainder of the way home
Harold says he left home because
another boy in the neighborhood who
knew that he had few dollars was
threatening him with harm if he did
not give up part of it and he finally
became frightened.
