Comm unication

Editor of Herald: The great
biennial election is near at hand
and the people generally are
warming up to its Importance.
After :. very extensive tour of
the fourteenth Congressional
District and coming in contact
with a vast number of voters, it
is no exaggeration to say that
the prospects of Representative
Crow for reelection are superb.
The American people admire a
man that does things, and Crow
has a very strong hold in that
regard. The fact of his ability
to do things coupled with the
favorable conditions material
makes for him a very bright
prospect for reelection, we think
by largely increased majority.
The farmers of this section are
rolling in clover" and don't de-
sire change. All their pro-
ducts are readily marketable at
at big prices, and they affirm
that is sufficient. We don't hear
of any insurging here except
against fre e-trade-democracy.
Destroy the protective system
and the great American Repub-
lie will begin to decay, for it is
the bullwark of our greatness.
AS soon as the Republican party
departs from the protective sys-

political organization. All OF

ROCK ISLAND LADY
GREETS T. r. FIRST

newspaper men were the first to greet
Colonel Roosevelt at the Country club

tanning the distinguished American,
Archbishop J. L. Spalding and Messrs.
Bourke and Finn arrived there at 1870
p. m.
Chief of Detectives Dave Kerr and
a representative of the Herald-Trans-
cript assisted the former president
from his car. He shook hands with
each, and spying a group of girls and
women on the lawn, he hustled away.
81 must shake hands with these Ia
dies" he said, and hurried over to the
group. Mrs ]. A. Wendell of Rock Is
land, who is visiting here, happened
to be the first woman in Peoria to
greet the former president. He shook
hands warmly with her; with Mrs. w.
T. Van Arsdale; Mrs. 1. B. Lyons, and
then saw Miss Helen King mounted
astride on a spirited horse in the cen
ter of the lawn"

works Of art" and hundreds of dol
lars worth of linoleum." The public
is going to be slow to believe that the
sheriff has in his employ such green
horn. The public will recall that two
years ago a gambling wheel that was
taken by the sheriff's forces from a
storeroom, where it had been lying
unused for months was placed on ex-
hibition at the court house that the
public might inspect sample of the
tools employed in the tiger joints for
the fleeing of the weak youth of the
city.
Another Opportunity Coming.
If the sheriff's Office will continue the
work in which it has now been enlisted
to put an end to public gambling in Rock
Island, it will interest itself in the
coming proceedings in the court of
Justice George P. Nissen, before whom
the writs of replevin for gambling fix
lures secured by the Schaum brothers
and Mcbride are set for hearing.
These fixtures were taken from the
Park, Diamond and Turf joints, and
are now, or have been, in storage in
Davenport. The Schaums and Nc
Bride have given bonds to defend their
writs. Sheriff Kittilsen yesterday iden-
titled the three legless tables taken
from the Robb storehouse, and he
might give the benefit of his knowl-
edge to Justice Nissen when the hear
ings on the replevin writs are called.
Justice Nissen claims he did not know
that the Schaums and Mcbride were
recovering gambling fixtures when
they obtained the replevin writs from
his Office. If Justice Nissen does not
know the difference between "a long
lunch table" and a craps table, Sheriff
Kittilsen doubtless will lend him the
enlightenment that he gave Judge
Olmsted in the county court yester-
day afternoon. This would have a
tendency to clarity the situation, and
ought to be appreciated by Justice
Nissen.
