GOVERNOR HOCH TOBE
AT COLLEGE TOMORROW

Governor e. w. Hoch, of Kansas,
who appears at Augustana college
in a lecture tomorrow evening, is a
man of the people. Unlike some of
the big lecturers of the present day,
it has always seemed to be a delight
for him to grasp the hand of each
member of his audience when they
have crowded about him in their en-
thusiasm at the close of his lecture.
Very few men have accomplished
during their administration as gov
ernor as much as Governor Koch
did in Kansas. He probably cham
pioned and crystalized into law dur
ing his administrations more reforms
than any previous governor. Oil
legislation was passed which made
possible in three years the establish
ment of nineteen independent oil re-
tineries and an annual saving of one
million dollars to the consumers of
coal alone in Kansas. An entire
change of management was brought
about in the state institutions put.

secured, an anti-pass law was en-

PROGRESS
AT Y.M.C.A. CLUB

"I am heartily in favor Of the con-
solidation Of Rock Island and Moline.
although believe that owing to fnan-
cial conditions Moline would not fare
so we'll as Rock Island. said L. E.
Jones. a professor Of Augustana COL
lege, at the meeting of the Toast
masters club at the Y. NJ. c. A. last
night.
The consolidation of the two cities
would mean a better government, be-
cause Moline's superior administration
policy would bring up the general tone.
There would be saving of money
through the elimination of duplicate
Offices, there would be moral uplift.
The public schools would be benefited
by coming under one head, and being
able to adopt uniform courses. text
books, etc. Instead of two separate
communities each working for their
own interests and knocking one an
other, we would have a population of
10000 people, all pulling together and
! boosting for a common cause"
Mr.. Jones was the last speaker on
the program.
c. C. Hubbart, who was first on the
program took for his subject-"For a
Greater Rock Island" and recommend
ed the securing of more factories here
/ Ray Wilson spoke pleasingly in regard
to the manufacturing interests, giving 6
number of facts which were very bene
fetal to the members present.
THE Building Activities of the eYar'
was the next subject taken up by A. L
Bruner. Mr.. Bruner spoke of tht
great amount of building and construc
ton work which had been done in this
city during the past year, presenting
figures which, as he said, he had secur
ed from advance estimates of The Ar
gus Annual Building Review anC
which place the aggregate for 1911 a
something like $1,S00.000. ALI thes'

gested that the corporations were no

ice rendered, when the fact was takel
into consideration, that they had
great many problems to contend with
Of which the public in general had no

TO keep MINORS
FROM POOL HALL
Commissioner Archie Hart to
Take Measures With This
End in View.
NICOLA PLACE Is CAUSE
Five Youthful Burglars Arrested
Yesterday Hatched Up Schemes
While Playing.
NICOLA PLACE is CAUSE

Information supplied to the police
department through the voluntary stor-
les of the quintet Of boys arrested by
Detective Sehnert Wednesday after
noon resulted in the arrest yesterday
afternoon of 8. NJ. Nicola, proprietor
Of the pool hall in which the boys, all
minors, played pool and while loafing
there, Matched most Of their plans for
their raids. The charge against Nicola
was preferred by Commissioner Archie
Hart, and was under that statute
which says that minors shall not be
allowed to loiter around amusement
halls or play pool in any Of them.
Nicola plead guilty, was fined s25 and
costs, and paid.
John KahTe, in his statement In
court yesterday afternoon admitted
to the court and his father that the
pool hall in question was the cause of
the degradation which he had brought
upon his family, and was willing to
agree to remain away from it in the
future, as we're the other boys in the
case. He is only IL years of age and
says that he has loafed around the
place for two years.
WILL ENFORCE LAW.
Commissioner Hart has control Of
the pool balls as head of the police de-
partment He said yesterday after
noon: 81 am going to see that in the
future every pool hall proprietor in
Rock Island enforces the laws in re-
gard to minors. l do not want the
blame for allowing these youngsters
to go wrong when l know that they
are Matching out these sort of things
there. Boys barely in their teens, and
some scarcely able to look over pool
table, have been allowed in a few of
these places, and l intend to issue or
| ders and enforce them in regard to this
statute. They become associated with
older men, some of whom have not the
best sort of reputation, and some of
the boys are bound to go wrong. We
have just had sad example of it, and
it is time to stop it before others go
wrong.
WERE GIVEN CREDIT.
81 know there are many reputable
pool halls where they will not allow
boys TO even enter, but some of them
sanction their presence there and
sometimes encourage it. This is not
true of all of them In this par
ticular case, when the boys had nc
money, they were given credit, and II
was to secure funds to pay these bills
that the boys took such desperate
methods. say desperate methods, be
cause every time they entered a place
by force they were liable to be shot
down and killed. not to say anything
of the chances of being arrested and
put in Jail for a few years. l know
that the proprietors will all see it IL
the proper light and will assist my de
partment to enforce the law"

committee of the part he and President
Taft took in the election of a senator
from Illinois in 1909.
Instead of telling Edward Hines, of
Chicago, the storm-centre In the pres
ent Lorimer investigation. that he and
the President were anxious to have
Lorimer elected, Mr.. Aldrich declared
that he said Lqrimer's candidacy was
mot Objectionable" When attorneys
for Lorimer, on cross-examination,
tried to show that the former senator
might have said acceptable" Mr..
Aldrich e%mphatically declared that he
said mot Objectionable" and that he
meant that word and nothing more. He
added that he knew Hines would use
the information given him at Spring
field.
The senator denied that he told
Hines he wanted a senator elected be-
cause of the prospective close vote on
the tariff.
Mr.. Aldrich shook hands with mem
bers of the committee, taking particu-
lar pains to greet Senator Lorimer, who
had listened to his testimony.
