Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1910-06-28
in EFFECT FRIDAY
Several New Laws Passed by
the Illinois Legislature
Operative July 1.
PRIMARY ACT CHIEF ONE
Similar to the One Formerly Enacted
With Changes to Remove
Flaws Court Found.

The new direct primary election law
enacted by the special session of the
46th general assembly last March goes
into actual effect next Friday, July 1.
Upon the same day all others of the
laws passed through the special ses-
sion of the legislature which did not
carry emergency clauses become stat
utes of the state. The emergency
clause legislation became effective
signed by Governor Deneen.
The new batch of laws under which
Illinois will work after next Thursday
midnight are the following:
The direct primary election law.
The commission form of government
law.
The fire rescue station law.
The Field museum site law.
The amended public library law.
Others in Effect Immediately.
Three extra sessions tackled emer-
gency clauses to the rest of the bills,
which went through both houses, and
these went into effect as soon as they
had been properly signed by the gov
ernor' This classification includes all
of the appropriation measures, the
Cherry sufferers relief bill; the act
causing the sanitary district of Chi
cago to operate the lock at Lockport
and remove Instructions in the deep
waterway. the law amending details of
finance in the creative act of the state
board Of administration of public char
tiles; the act authorizing cities of 100,-
900 and under to construct outlet sew
ers; the East st. Louis amendments to
the general drainage act, and the law
authorizing the commission on occupa-
tional diseases to secure the help neces-
sary tc begin work.
OF Greatest Interest.
The primary election law-or the
two primary election laws, because
there is one law covering all offices
except legislative and a separate meas
ure for the nomination of senators and
representatives in the general assem-
bly-is the statute of greatest interest
to the state at large.
The new law does not vary in most
essential details from that which was
in force In Illinois in 1908 and which
was declared unconstitutional by the
supreme court. Attempts are said to
have been made by the extra session
to cure the defects in the 1908 law, as
they were pointed out by the supreme
Justices.
Under the law which begins opera
ton Friday all nominations for public
Office in the state must be made under
its provisions in order that names of
candidates may legally be certified to
the official ballots for the regular
elections.
The only public Offices which are ex-
empted from the provisions of the law
are candidates for electors for presi-
dent and vice president Of the United
States, trustees of the University Of
Illinois, and township and school dis
trict Offices. An advisory board for
United States senator is provided. The
law is regulatory and mandatory upon
any political party which shall have
cast per cent of the total vote cast in
any political unit at the general cleo
ton last preceding the primary.
The primary election ballot is open
to any person who files the necessary
petition. y
Under Regular Judges.
All party primaries are held upon

President Taft's record with the

Especial Correspondence

Washington. Oct. 14-No public ut
terance of Colonel Roosevelt since his
return from Africa has given rise to so
much comment in Washington as has
the report of his private conversation
at Atlanta. Ga. recently. regarding his
Willingness to again be candidate for
the presidency. provided he could be

the SOUTH
There are still number of Colonel
Roosevelt's intimates in the govern
ment service here who are watching his
every move with the greatest interest
and more than one of them has been
consulted by the former president re-
garding political conditions.
1t was stated by one of these Roose
Welt supporters today that in his con-
versation with the city officials at At
lanta Colonel Roosevelt merely gave
expression TO a sentiment with which
his intimate friends have long been
familiar There is not the slightest
doubt in any quarter in Washington
that Colonel Roosevelt is a receptive
candidate for the presidential nomina
ton in 1912. II is likewise we'll known
that the coloners trip thru the south
would give him a very good idea where
he would stand in battle for the re-
publican delegates to the next national
convention.

The remarkable manner in which
Frank II. Hitchcock went into the
south IN 1907 and rounded up delegates
which he proposed to deliver en- bloc
for Secretary Cortelyou and then deliv-
cred them without break to the Taft
Roosevelt forces has given rise to the
general impression that with the pa
tronage of the postoffice department at
his disposal Mr.. Hitch cock would have
no difficulty in retaining his control in
the south AS matter of fact Colonel
Roosevelt's friends are reasonably GER
tain that if it comes to fight for con-
troll in the south between the former
president and Hitchcock the postmas-
ter general will come off second best.
1t was declared here today that Mr..
Roosevelt's interest in the possibility
Of capturing delegates In southern
states is so intense that on more than
one occasion he has exhibited to his
friends a map of the United States
on which he has marked the number Of
delegates which could be prevailed up
on to march under the Roosevelt ban
ner The southern states are con-
spicuously marked for Roosevelt on
this map. and II is declared that the
present trip IS the preliminary step to
break the control of Hitchcock in that

Of the smoothest and most notorious
crooks in America, have been in Des
Moines and gone.
The pair completed a three weeks
sojourn in the city Wednesday night.
They left some time between twilight
and dawn with light baggage, dainty

hood OF $4,000 bank roll gulled thru
the insidious arts OF the CRATER from
Dies Moines women anxious to learn
the art OF the masseur.
The first intimation that the police
department had of the presence of the
pair was when complaints commenced
TO arrive over the telephone to Chief
of Detectives Ed Johnston yesterday
afternoon. Women complained of los
ing from s35 70 SIS on the proposition
offered by the queen" OF the lady
"con merchants" The mum Der of calls
and the amount involved in each case
indicates that the total will reach or
exceed the 81 900 limit.
The pair arrived in Des Moines three
weeks ago ard took apartments with
Mrs. Robbins al 81 Fifth street. Ad-
vertisements appeared shortly after
ward announcing that the countess
would start massa &c parlors in one Of
the buildings in The downtown district.
Women were invited to call who de-
sired TO learn the art of the Danish
maSseur
According to the story related by
Mrs. Robbins many women answered
the advertisement. The artful 'coun-
tess" arranged their calls so that no
two We're there al the same time. They
fled in every hour during the day. The
husband was kept in the background
and took care OF the bank roll.
According 10 the story related by the
victims to Chief Johnston, the Count

ment painted glowing pictures of the
new parlors, Of the new methods. and

been carefully picked over and the

the same gentle method that the wheat
is divorced from the tares. the pair of
noble visitors slipped quietly out of

unknown.
After receiving the first complaint
yesterday Chief Johnston started an
investigation of his records, unearthins
a picture and data concerning a pair
that answered the description from
St Louis showing their operations there

the pictures without difficulty and the

who have worked every known graft
