Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1910-06-22

According to the local correspond
ents the best games of the season
were played yesterday at Peoria and
Springfield, while the worset games
of the year were played at DanviIle
and Bloomington. In the first two
cities the home teams won and in the
last two the home teams lost. o,
that's all right, boys; don't try to
explain. We would all feel the same
way under similar circumstances.
President Burton of the Northern
association failed last night to attend
a meeting to save the game at Clin7
ton, being too busy with the obituary
of Joliet, and as a result came in for
a lot of censure, while there wa talk
of throwing him. out and electing a
new executive. An investigation of his
office by a committee was authorized.
When they depose the president the
Northern association clubs will have
done everything under the sun to keep
the wheels turning.
Joliet dispatches say that the Gin
ton team of the Northern association
has been released and that the Joliet
club has been transferred in a body
to the Iowa town, while Freeport is
also to be dropped, giving a six-club
circuit Freeport dispatches assert
that Mayor Rawleigh has come to the
rescue of that city's aggregation and
that the season will be finished.
That's about as much as anybody can
make out of the tangled condition of
affairs in the circuit. The transfer
of the Joliet club to Clinton would
give the latter city good team and
at the same time wipe out all tangi-
BILE reminders of Ted Sullivan's mis-
takes. The superstition is that Man
ager Hunky Hines would go along
with the Joliet bunch.

REGISTRATION BILL VICIOUS.
Patterson Says Measure Passed by
Extra Will Increase Election
Frauds

Senator Pattersons opinion Of the
extra session registration bill.
The Big Mitt bill has passed the
legislature. In the name Of every de-
cent voter of the city Of Denver and
the state of Colorado, The News calls
on Governor Shafroth to refuse his
signature, and to veto this bill which
would legalize election thievery.
There is no need to 60 into detail
in pointing out the viciousness Of the
so-called registration bill to a man like
Governor Shafroth. He has had ex-
perience with practical politics. He
knows how the registration lists we're
padded in the old days, before Mayor
Speer's claws were clipped. He knows,
for he was elected to congress by
those fraudulent votes, and rightly
won his nickname Of Honest John"
by refusing to hold ONCE to which he
was not entitled. The bill now before
him asks him to authorize and protect
the frauds which he repudiated then.
The News is we'll aware that with
out q registration bill of some sort,
the primary law viii be imperative.
But the primary law will not be ef-
fective until 1912 and there will be
plenty Of opportunity to enact a reg
istration law at the regular session Of
the next legislature.

and Taft ideals of government. guar
antee Of business methods in conduct
ing affairs Of state and rigid economy
in handling its finances, is. In brief.
the platform upon which Senator John
B. Stephen of Colorado City asks cleo
ton as governor on the Republican
ticket. Mr.. Stephen has made his po-
sition plain in a statement given out
just before the Republican state con-
vention. This declaration appealed to
the peoples convention" at Colorado
Springs SO forcibly that delegates al
most unanimously demanded his NOM
nation. It 10 q statement that will ap-
peal to every Coloradoan, who sim
cerely desires business administra-
tlon.
Mr.. Stephens statement follows:
"If elected governor of Colorado. l
shall as far as comes within my
power support the Taft and Roosevelt
policies of national progression and
shall work for the enactment Of those
local measures, which will enlarge the
powers Of the people Of Colorado to
act for themselves in matters pertain
ing to state government.
"The Republican party has been the
party Of advancement for the past so
years. All beneficial measures that
have been enacted nationally have
come through our party and its record
In the several states shows that 1t
has been the organization through
which the individual states have made
their greatest Advancement. therefore
l believe it to be for the best interests
of Colorado that our party shall be
entrusted with the administration OF
state affairs.
81 believe with former President
Roosevelt that every interest is en-
titled to the same protection which is
accorded to every individual so long
as it conforms to the law"
"The man who has the power to act
is to he judged, not by his words, but
by his acts, and by his words insofar
as they agree with his acts.
This principle uttered by former
President Roosevelt early this year,
expresses my view and it can be ap-
piled to the administration of Presi-
dent Taft. His acts can certainly be
compared favorably with. not only his
promises, but the promises of his
party in the platform upon which he
was elected. The results President
Taft has actually achieved justify all
prediction pledges. II l am chosen
chief executive Of this state, shall
endeavor to secure the enactment of
laws that will advance Colorado's in
terests, commercially, politically and
morally. I believe state government
should progress the same as any 9TH
