each of the wards OF the city. These
supervisors, in turn appoint those
who make the house to house Wis
its. These latter call upon every fam
lily in their districts and learn their
preferences as to what church they
would rather attend. Their names
are then handed in to the city union
and the different ministers and
church workers are put in possession
of the knowledge thus gained and
they are given a clear idea of where
they will meet with success in try
Ing to bring new members into the
fold Among the suggestions made
towards making the canvass more
successful was one to the effect that
the visits take place in the afternoon,
preferably on Saturday afternoon.
The visits seem to have more effect
on that day and the result is shown
by the increased attendance in the
churches on the following day.

Mr. Winchell and Mr.. Willard that the
directors decided to answer some Of
the agitation arguments which the
railroads had used The Illinois Man

to accomplish good deal in the
direction of keeping the railroads in
line and making them be decent.
Therefore, no matter what some of the
directors or members may think, the
association could not dream of aban-
doning its policy with respect TO the

Charge Made Against Rock Is
land Roads by Manufac-
turers' Association.
CAUSES ROW IN THAT BODY
Members Split Over ENpedicncy of
Attacking transportation Lines
in This Way.

A serious division of opinion Las
arisen among the directors and mem
bcrs of the Illinois Manufacturers as.
sociation regarding the policy to DC
pursued with respect to railroads.
The controversy has arisen as the re-
suit of Legislative bulletin No. TO-"
recently issued by the association.
/, severely attacking the Rock Island
and the Burlington roads for alleged
overcapitalization.
Upon the theory that such an attack
is ''scurrilous and undignifed" some
members of the association are cil.
culating a petition addressed to the
board calling upon that body to see
that no more circulars of the character
Of the one i'll question are issued ny
the association. 1t is said by some
that the petition is meeting with gen
| eral favor and that it is strong in de
nunCiation of TIE statements made n
the so-callcd offending bulletin.
Although the controversy is held a
serious one. there is no thought at
| its present stage that it will threaten
| the existence of the association. The
situation is clearly outlined in two
statements made at Chicago yesterday
| by members of the directory. who take
opposite views upon the subject.
Holds II Irrelevant.
The position of the faction which is
not in sympathy with the policy, Us
evidenced by the bulletin, was out
lined by Director Rudolph Ortmanu Of
the Griffin Wheel company in this
way:
| There are many members of the
| association who do not approve Of
the course which has been pursued.
| We are not concerned with the
question of whether or not the
charges made in the bulletin are true.
| but we severely condemn their being
made upon the authority of the asso,
citation. Many of us regard the cir-
cular as scurrilous and undigniiied as
well as lily advised and extremely un,
wise. Our association is organized q

turcrs of Illinois and not to sling mud

its kind ever held here. At the ban
quet which was served in the Sun

some 375 people were present, max
ing the largest number that has ever
sat at banquet at the church. Of
this number about 175 were from
Moline. Enthusiasm fer the work of
the rally was evident on all sides and
1T is the hope of all the delegates
that considerable good will result
from the meeting. During the course
OF the banquet, number of musical
selections were rendered in which
the Arian quartet, Miss Bertha and
Arthur Jonassen, and Mrs. II. e Van
Duzer and Harvey Il. Curtis took

visitation. In Philadelphia, he said.
100000 people had received calls

outline plans whereby all these visits
could be made by so many different
people but il shows how thoroughly
the work can be done. lie advocated
putting the visitation work in the
hands of the city union, and he cx-
pressed 4 hope that the task would
be undertaken here shortly.

The object of the visitation, as he
explained it, is to make Il canvass of
