Even more convincing is the fact that,
at the very time when these results
were being obtained in the medical
college hospital. the returns from the
Campbell Hospital, where the new
system had not been introduced, show

This would seem to Indicate that
the treatment, and not any exceptional
mildness in the epidemic, was respon-
sible for the high proportion of cures
obtained. The treatment was first
adopted, probably discovered, by Major
Rogers of the medical department, and
his success in curing cholera by the
use of it attracted attention before
he really gave to the public his method
of treatment. He wanted to be sure of
its efficacy before he gave out his dis

Gated at the state capitol; it's dilapi-
dated appearance and the lack of keep

AS a matter of fact. the officers of

to allow various forms of gambling
there for a financial consideration
which, to the depleted exchequer of
the exposition at the start, would have
meant considerable. If it were neces-

thing that would be startling, but they
are not disposed to give aid to any

The Republican of Carthage has the
following to say of Rev. Thomas E.
Newland, who succeeds Rev. r. B. VIII
liams as pastor of the First NJ. E.
church OF Rock Island:
During Mr. Newland's pastorate in
Carthage the church has been strength
ened as never before. The member
ship has been sifted to a practical, mil
liant basis and strong new members
added, until the net results Of his min
istry has been an increase in numbers
and a cementing of church fellowship
that has wrought inestimable good in
the spiritual power Of the church and
its members. Mr.. Newland has been
tactful. broad-minded, public-spirited,
and progressive. The fine new $4,000
church building, erected free of debt,
is monument to his energy and bust
ness ability. During his pasterate the
salary has been raised twice, it now
being 81 800. He found discussions in
the church; he leaves it harmonious
and united body of Christian workers.
He has drawn all men unto him. and
has greatly augmented the church's in
f1uence in the community This infiu-
ence is felt not only by the spiritual
uplift Of the members of his church,
but in a large way he has sown the
seeds of higher Christian citizenship
and civic righteousness and progress.
THE heart of Carthage and cOmmun-
ity goes out in love and best wishes
for the future Of Mr.. Newland and the
rare good wife, who has been so great
an aid and inspiration in his work"

Gamblers and Their Friends
Seek to Kick Up Political
Dust as Screen.
BRING OTHER THINGS IN
Where Gambling Was Denied
Though Cash Was Offered to
Permit Protected" Games.

Deputies connected with the Of
fee of Sheriff Kittilsen, instead of
attending to the duties which they
are paid to perform, have, since the
public exhibition OF gambling in
Rock Island, been going about try
ing to throw dust in the peoples
eyes by stirring up a political agita-
ton to divert popular attention from
1awlessness that their office has
countenanced. Some of these Of
f1cials have at least. for the moment,
obtained the ear OF the Moline Dis
patch, which newspaper has been
making gallant fight for moral de-
cency, irrespective Of politics, in
which it has been in entire accord
with The Argus.
While the Moline paper, in its
issue of last evening transcends it's
attitude and makes some unwise, as
we'll as rather amusing assertions,
The Argus does not propose to be
drawn from its attitude of sticking
for the enforcement of law, regard
less of politics. However, some of
the political comparisons the Dis
patch is constrained to make will
be given consideration and the chal-
lenge now made accepted at a time
when they may be properly discussed.
One Point Needs Attention.
Just one point in the false informa.
ton which the Dispatch has been in
nocently led to print is worthy OF con-
sideration at this time. This is in
spired by the desire, previously re-
ferred to, of the gamblers To divert
public thought from the open violation
of law in the streets of Rock Island.
1t is to the effect that there was gam
bling permitted in connection with the
recent Rock Island exposition.
1t may be pertinent to say in this
connection that Sheriff Kittilsen was
on the ground regularly, IN fact was
practically in charge of the situation
as regards law enforcement, and will
