spoke of the motherly feeling the city

WHEELAN BECOMES CANDIDATE FOR
DEMOCRATIC REPRESENTATIVE

Mr.. Wheelan's urswerving party
fealty, running through period of
the best part of his life. Ever since
he attained his majority he has been
active in democratic affairs, having
served on either the city or county
committee for 20 years, and for eight
years was chairman of the democratic
city-township committee. He is today
a member of the county committee.
While he has not sought the distinc-
ton of delegate to the larger conven-
lions of the party, he has been regu-
lar attendant upon the party's sena-
torial, state and national conventions
for 20 years. always ready 10 do his
part in cooperation with the delega-
ton from Rock Island county in state
conventions or the Illinois delegation
in national conventions. to the further
ance of the wishes of the local or state
democracy, as the case might be.
Mr.. Wheelan is native of Rock
| Island, having been born in 1863, and
here he has spent all his life, receiv-
| ing his education in the public schools
and in the business college. For many
wears he, with his brothers, was. ell
gagged in the grocery business, and OF
| later years has been the local repre-
sentative of some of the larger life
insurance companies. He Served two
terms in the city council as alderman
from the Fifth ward from 1896 to

Icouncil was floor leader.
He has always been a consistent

of the party's most reliable and best
| equipped leaders.
| He has been a. close student of pub
| lie affairs, national, state and local
and that he would make most cred
table representative in the legislature
of the people of the Thirty-third dis

Wrong Administration.
From the pictures presented, the
speaker drew the inevitable conclu-
sion that if there is one majesty in
the United States it is the majesty of
the law. He held it untrue that laws
| are made for the rich and the strong,
but claimed the opposite to be the
case-that laws are made for the
weak to protect those who cannot
fight the strong "But laws are not
always properly executed, added the
governor. This condition he deplored,
holding that no executive has the NOR
al right to violate the law in the in
terests Of expectancy any more than
| the common man has the right to vio-
late laws in order to satisfy other pas
sions. Executives do not take their
oath of office to support public senti
ment or to be guided by public senti
ment,' he held. He, showed that VIC
lation of law by executives has sci
precedents for the violation of law by
the men in more humble positions.
Have Two Governments.
In the United States, the governor
maintained, there are two governments
and the government is notsthat which
was founded in 1776. The one govern
ment is by the president, congress, and
the judicial branches-tbe other is
the tyranny of concentrated wealth
which violates the laws and seeks tC
ltake from the American people theil
fright to govern themselves. The con
tstitution, in the opinion of the speak
Ter. is sufficiently flexible to meet every
lneed of the people, but that people
must awake and see that all men
Iabide by the laws of the land. He re
fcalled Washington s words, to the eff
feet that 1t is the inherent right of the
people of this land to change the laws

lernment, but that this right presup

SEES WHY THE
ARSENAL WAS
LOCATED HERE
Governor Johnson Refers HUI
morously to Rivalry of
Three Cities.
SPEAKS AT A BANQUET
Makes Good Impression There and
at Lecture at Moline
Theater.

after having heard the mayor OF
Rock Island tell of the fame of this
city, the mayor of Moline discourse
upon the renown of that city. and the
mayor OF Davenport talk patronizingly
OF both, can understand why the
United States government has estab-
lished an arsenal between the three.
Thus spoke Governor Johnson of Min
nesota at the close of a banquet in
his honor at the Harper house last
evening.
The remark, it may be added, did
not offend any one, for the governor
was merely joking, and he is as charm
ing when speaking in levity as he is
eloquent when speaking seriously.
Having heard the addresses of the
mayors. the Minnesota executive add
ed he could readily believe that the
oriental threw himself beneath the
car of Juggernaut' in the hope that in
his dying vision he would catch a
glimpse of Rock Island; that Alexan-
der stopped his tour of conquest at
the Himalayas because Davenport was
not on the other side. and that Ulysses
ceased blowing the main because he
hadn't Moline implement to finish
the job with. Later, speaking serious
ly, the governor said:
Hopes for National Understanding.
Il am growing more and more tc
hope that the American people will
finally cong to$nnderstand themselves
and to fintfasremedy that will remove
the ills offthe present day. We have
met great crises in the past and have

credit as a nation Even that greatest
issue that caused the civil war is now
forgotten as such, and there is now
no north and no south. The monu
ments thar stand Son the battlefields

home and called to his mother:
"The fire is going"
The mother Immediately knew that
something was wrong. jumped over
the wire fence separating the two
yards and to the front door of the
house. She saw that the kitchen was
already mass of flames.
She made an attempt to reach the
little baby, caught in the flames, but
could not enter the room. A neigh

heard her screams. rushed to the
back of the house, opened the door
and rescued the child. His face was
scorched by the flames. The baby
was uninjured.
While the residents in the houses
endeavored to save all the furniture
possible, some one turned in the fire
alarm but when the department ar
rived the Lovelace home was prac-
tically gone, and it appeared that the
entire block was doomed to destruc-
ton. The three lines of hose that
were placed. with streams directed
from all quarters on the houses. soon
stopped the further spread of the
fire and saved a connagration.

Governor Deneen Orders Two Rcei-

Capital.

SPRINGFIELD, H., Aug. is
That the race war situation is consid-
cred much less serious was evident
tonight when Governor Deneen issued
orders for the return of two of the
four regiments of national guard to
their homes. Asked if his action
meant that all danger of trouble
was over the governor stated that the
two thousand troops which remain
are sufficient to cope with the situa
ton.
Gen. Young said that the mob ele-
ment has had a lesson and that in
formation that is coming to hand Will
enable the arrest of the ringleaders
and with them out of the way there
will be little for the militia to do.
There was the usual crop of useless
alarms tonight but up to midnight
nothing of a serious character had
occurred
