TWO MEMBERS QUIT
THE COUNTY BOARD
Supervisor Matthews VIII Farm in
Colorado and Supervisor Doer-
ing in Oklahoma.

Supervisor Herman Doering of
South Rock Island and Supervisor d.
w. Matthews of Black Hawk town
ship will resign from the county
board at the next meeting in March.
They are resigning at this time that
the vacancies may be filed at the
coming election in April. Supervis-
or Doering will settle on a farm in
Oklahoma and Supervisor Matthews
will try farming in Colorado.
South Moline also must fill a va
cancy on the county board. AS a re-
suit of the annexation of the 3OO-acre
tract at the southwest end of Moline
to the municipal corporation. the res
idence property of supervisor Weckel
is a part of the municipality of Mo
line. though it is still iE South Mo-
line township. The probability is
that steps will be taken at the Marcel
meeting to disconnect the tract from
South Moline and add it to Moline
township.
The prospects are that the March
meeting will be called later than us.
ual so that the tax money will be
available to meet the county bill!
which have been accommodating for
six months. The meeting will prob.
ably be neld about the 18th.

BILL is IN.
Moon Measure, Aiming to Regu-
late Injunctions, Before
Congress.
PARTY PLEDGE ON SUBJECT
Author of Measure Claims to Have
Defined Exactly How far Courts
Should Go.

Washington, D. c.. Feb. 19.-What
is generally recognized as the admin
istration bill on the important sub
ject of the regulation of court injunc-
tions was introduced yesterday by
Representative R. c. Moon, republi-
can. of Pennsylvania. chairman of the
committee on revision of laws.
The bill deals with a subject in
which the president has been deeply
interested and one which he has been
anxious to see enacted into law in
careful form that would redeem the
pledges of his party on the subject
and at the same time constitute nc
drastic innovation in legal procedure.
Bill Brief, But Specific
The Moon bill is a brief one, COW
ering a single typewriter sheet. In
effect it provides that no injunction.
whether interlocutory or permanent.
shall be issued by any federal court
or judge without previous notice and
an opportunity to be heard on behalf
of the parties enjoined.
But. it says further, if there ap-
pears a probability that Immediate
and irreparabIe injury rs likely TO
enuse the court may issue a tempo
rary restraining order without not
ice. 1t is required that every such
order shall define the injury, state
why irreparable and why granted
without notice. and shall not extend
more than seven days from the time
the notice is served.
Author Explains Measure.
In explaining his bill, Mr.. Moon
said:
There are radical differences be-
tween the Moon bill and any other
bill on this important subject that he
been heretofore introduced. MY bill
defines accurately the distinction be-
tween the various phrases of the in
junction process. 1t divides iniunc-
tiOns proper into two comprehensive
classes interlocutOry injunctiOns and
final njunctions-and prohibits alb
solutely the issuance of such injunc-
tions without an opportunity Of the
defendant to be heard.
''An important feature of the Moon
bill is that it accurately and definitely
defines the two essential prereuuis-
ties of restraining order without
notice. First, by irreparable injury.
and second, the additional require
ment that the giving of notice or the
delay incident thereto would prevent
the doing of the act sought to be re
strained before notice could be given.
1t also requires that the Judge be-
fore granting this order shall find
these facts judiciaIIy and shall spread
them upon the records of the court"

LAST DATE LATER
National League, Though Play
ing but 154 Games, Con-
cludes Oct. is.
NUMBER OF CHANGES MADE
Disregard Arrangement With Ameri-
can League-Western Patches
Up a Schedule.

New York, Feb. 19.-After four days
of heated discussion the National
league magnates adopted a playing
Astoria last night, but not until it was
agreed to close the championship sea
son on Oct. 10.
This arrangement compelled numer-
Gus changes in the original schedule
in order TO avoid conflicting dates in
Chicago and enable the clubs TO string
out their games to cover Columbus
day, Oct. II. 1t was not until Garry
Hermann of Cincinnati and John T.
Brush of New York had applied extra
pressure that the MurphyEbbets COM
bination agreed TO accept the 154-game
plan, with concessions
After it was all over, Hermann
said: This squabble was extremely
childish 1t could have been settled in
half an hour If the league as a body
had gone about it in n business-like
way. Why, Ebbets admitted all along
that the shorter schedule was the bet
ter, but he would not vote for it be-
cause. he said, Dreyfuss had refused
TO vote for his 168-Same plan"
Although the desire of the American
league for a 154-game schedule was
met, that leagues interests were dis
regarded by stretching the schedule
out to Oct 10. Ebbets and Murphy in
sisted on using their players up to the
contract time. Barney Dreyfuss of
Pittsburg was the only club owner
willing to make con cessions, and he
saved the league from what seemed to
be a hopeless deadlock.
Western League Picks Slate.
Chicago, Feb. 19.-The Western
league marathon meeting came to an
end at the Grand Pacific hotel last
night, the club owners finally getting
a 1GS-game slate that suited them and
adjOurning to meet at President
O'NeilI's call.
The magnates had been in session
most of the time since Wednesday af-
ternoon. All of them were in favor of
the longer playing season, but it was
a difficult task to arrange a satisfac-
tory slate. President O'Neill was
happy at the close of the long and
tedious affair for he said the schedule
chosen was just about perfect and
that harmony existed in his ranks.
The opening dates were allotted as
follows: Lincoln at Denver, Des Moines
at ST Joseph. Sioux City at Topeka,
and Omaha at Wichita. Memorial day
will find Omaha at Des Moines, Lincoln
at Sioux City, Topeka at st. Joseph,
and Wichita at Denver. On the Fourth
of TuIv nPS NCineS will be at Sioux
City. Wichita at Topeka. Denver at
St. Joseph, and Omaha at Lincoln in

Out of the Warming Pan

Decatur, since his retirement from the
game in 1904 has been conducting a
cigar store at Anderson, Ind. The bug
has gotten him again, it seems.
Bloomington may lose Catcher Hal
Smith. who says he has a good job in
Chicago. and if he can keep it he will
give up the game.
Catcher L. F. Langdon, better known
as Mig" has signed his contract for
1910 with Bloomington. He started
out last season to make a good show
ing. and but for broken thumb would
have made a great record. He will do
the bulk of the work behind the bat
this year. although it might develop
that Novacek will be used alternately
with Langdon. Jim will be a handy
man to send in as pinch hitter in
games in which he does not work reg
ularly.
