PEARY PROMISED HE
WOULD MAKE POLE
Many Recall His Assertion Before
Tri-City Press Club Few
Years Ago.

Many people in this vicinity heard
Commander Robert E. -Peary, in his
address before the Tri-City Press club
4 few years ago, make the assertion
that, in his next trial, he would either
find the North pole or never be found
himself. He said OH that occasion that
his preceding daShes for the north
ern goal had so thoroughly familia :
lied him with the territory OF the ey-
IRENE latitude that there could be no
excuse offered for another failure. un-
less he persisted because of inability
to resist the severity of the elements.
The local admirers of Commande.-
Peary, of course, believe he has male,
good, ana if there is any serious dis.
pute between him and DR.. Cook, thew
will sympathiZe with the former.

past, and what they might still accoil-
plish. He stated that the greatest
trouble now is the scarcity of employ
ment. THE remedy for this would be
a decrease in the number of hours
each man worked. By decreasing the
of hours it would be necessary
TO employ more men and thus the men
who were seeking employment might
be satisfied. The condition of the
laborers is now better than it ever
was before. They have. for the most
Fart, better places of living. They
receive higher wages and have shorter
hours The union is accomplishing
much for the laborers was the opinion
of Mr. Shields.

at 2:3O. The program was carried ont
as it was planned with the exception
of the sports, which were left out en-
tirely. AT least $500 people attended
the meeting at the park and many #
them attended the affair at Central
park At the former place were the
chief executives of the tri-cities. F. G
Johnson. president of the day, William
J.Shields of Boston and Mrs Mae Woods
Simon of Chicago Freed's orchestra
of Moline furnished the music
At $50 Mr.. Johnson made short
Introductory speech, preparing the way
for the speeches which were to follow.
The first speaker was Mayor Andrew
Olson of Moline. He welcomed the
laboring men 10 the city and made
few fitting remarks concerning the
Labor day observances. Mayor Olson
stated that the laborers are the men
who make the country what it is. They
are the men who make any city Or COM
munity what it is, and because of the
great number of laborers in the tri-
cities these cities should make one of
the greatest centers of the world
Mayor Olson said that Moline is the
best city of the three and stated that
they should be united under one heal
Moline.
Three Cities as One.
Mayor George w Scott of Daveu-
port was called upon at the concll.
| sion of the Moline executives talk
chief executive of the cleane3t city
in Iowa. Mayor SCOTS words were
we'll received by his hearers. He
spoke of the great manufacturing ce l.
| ter of the three cities and of our posi-
| ton in one of the greatest agricultural
| districts In the world. He spoke Of
| the linemen's strike in the tricities
right and deserved to win
He also was of the opinion that the
| tri-cities should be banded together
under one head. but in his opinion
Davenport is the city proper and the
other cities are mere suburbs
When Mayor George Washington
McCasllrin was called upon he imme-
diately disputed the words of the other
executives. He stated that inasmuch
as they both wished Rock Island to be
united with their town in this Utopian
scheme that Rock Island should be
the head and the name should rightly
be Rock Island.
Mrs. Simon of Chicago was the next
speaker and her address was entirely
upon social lines. Her complaint was
much the same as any other of the
socialists, that the laborers are living
by the sweat of their brow and are
but mere slaves in the hands of the
capitalists.
Work of Trade Unions.
William J Shields of Boston was the
principal speaker on the program. Mr..
Shields belongs to the school of trad :
unionism and all of his remarks con
