CHICAGO CAPITAL TO
BUILD HOTEL HERE?
Report That Option Has Been Sc,
cured ON Albrecht Property
on Twentieth.

Chicago capital is said to have OBJ
tanned an option on the Albrecht es-
tate holdings at the northeast cor
nor of Third avenue and Twentieth
street with a view to erecting there
a seven-story fireprOOf hotel. A Chi
cago brewing concern is stated TO
be the chief factor in the enterprise.
Just how far the negotiations have
progressed beyond the taking OF an
option is not divulged, but it is
claimed that if there is no hitch in
the program that the Chicago par
ties have outlined the new hotel,
to be made one of the finest in this
section, will rise within the present
year. \ year ago another brewing
concern was said to have planned a
hotel on the same site, but the deal
appears to have fallen through.

WORKHOUSE FOR
COUNTY PLANNED
Supervisors to Name Commit.
tee to Confer With Coun-
cils of Cities.
PRISONERS EARN KEEP
At Present They Are a Dead Weight
on Taxpayers-MagiH Is
Thanked for Work. ..

Supervisor Sam R. Wright intro
board today calling for the appoint
ment of a committee OF three to wait
upon the municipal commissioners
of this city and of Moline in an en-
deavor to enlist their aid in the
building and maintaining of a coun-
ty and twin-city workhouse, where
the prisoners of the county and the
two cities can be put to work. At
present, 1t was pointed out, the pris-
oners were simply a dead weight to
the county, while they might be
made to pay for their own keep if
a workhouse were built here. The
resolution was adopted and the mat
ter will be taken up with the COM
missions at an early date.
APPOINTS POoRMAs STEERS.
By an unanimous vote of the
board, J. H. Lidders of this city was
reappointed overseer Of the poor for
the city of Rock Island. Mr.. Lid
ders had served in that capacity for
several years past. w. A. Golden
was appointed to a similar position
in Moline. The Moline Dispatch
Publishing company was given a
contract for printing the official pro-
ceedings of the board on its bid of
$3.50 for the year.
LYONS SUIT WON.
Quite a demonstration resulted this
morning at the meeting of the board
of supervisors when States Attorney
L. NJ. Magil1 announced that the coun-
ty had been declared the winner in the
long pending suit against former
County Treasurer David Lyons. The
rendered thanks to Mr.
Magill for the successful termination
of the case. He was also congratulate
ed upon the work of his Office in win
ming the corporation tax cases which
brought an addition to the county
treasurer of over $4,000. The Lyons
case has been pending for years. 1t
grew out Of the appropriating by tie
former treasurer of certain fees which
he claimed belonged to him by virtue
of his being county collector. These
fees amounted to nearly $4,000 and II
was to recover this amount from his
bondsmen that the county Instituted
suit. Judge F. D. Ramsay recently de-
cfded in favor of the county, but the
news was withheld in order that the
states attorney might take it person
ally to the members of TIE board.

showed that labor was injurious to in
dustry.
CORRUPTS PUBLIC OFFICIALS.
The subject of Mr.. Hale's conten.
tons, Lombard's second speaker, was
that capital corrupts public Offices. He
cited numerous instances in which cor
porations had contributed to campaign
funds
Augustana's last orator, c. F. Ander-
son, in a convincing way contended
that organized labor cannot be controll-
ed because of the centralizing move
ment among the unions, the quality of
leadership, the membership, and the ir-
responsibility of organized labor.
For Lombard, D. NJ. Brumfiel closed.
He ives Lombard's most forceful speak
er. Organized labor, he contended,
was the only remedy for the abuse Of
organized capital
DR.. Louis Fisher, president of Lom-
bard, acted as chairman of the even
ing. The judges were: President T.
H. McMichael, Monmouth college;
President H D. Hoover of Carthage
college, and Professor G. H. Gerberd-
ing, D. D., of Chicago.
After the forensic battle the Angus
tame debaters and Dr. E. F. Bartholo-
NEW. who accompanied the team, were
by the Lombardites at a
banquet.

AUCUSTANA WINS
SECOND CONTEST
Lombard College Team Defeat.
ed in Debate at Galesburg
Last Night.
CAPITAL AND LABOR THEME
Rock Islanders Contend That Organ
lied Workers Are Greater
Menace.

The Lombard college debating team
was decisively defeated by Augustanas 5
loren sic trio at Galesbuhg last night,
the Lutherans successfully upholding
that organized labor is a greater men
ace TO the comm onwealth than organ
ized capital" This was the second de
bate which has been held between
Lombard and Augustana, and it was
also the second victory for the local
team, the score now being Augustana
., Lombard 0.
Augustana had the affirmative and
was represented by Fl. w. Linden, E.
S. Swenson and C. F. Anderson. Those
who upheld Lombard's side of the ar
gument were Quincy Wright, H. o.
Hale and D. NJ Brumfiel.
Mr. Linden, the first speaker for Au-
gustana. presented his arguments in a
very direct and forceful way. He be-
gan by saying that in considering the
word menace two things must be taken
into account-how dangerous and pow
erful a thing is, and can It be controll-
ed. He continued by showing in what
way trusts had benefited this country
and that the cry was no longer for an
inhalation to cure their evils, but regu-
lation. Through the Sherman anti
trust law, the corporation tax law and
the interstate commerce commission,
regulation has proven a success. He
also cited trusts which had been prose
cuted under these laws.
GROWTH OF CORPORATION.
The first speaker for the negative,
Mr.. Wright, opened up his argument by
first tracing the growth OF the large
corporation, having its beginnings with
the great inventions in England and
being brought over to this country by
the English. He contended that trusts
as yet were only in their infancy and
that the time will soon come when all
industries will be controlled under one
head, and force the common herd TO
bow before them In humble submission.
That organized capital was beneficial
was admitted, but that nine-tenths of
the people were unable to enjoy any of
the benefits thus caused. The poorly
paid people have no recourse save in
organized labor, as capital controls all
legislation. He further stated that the
wages had not increased in proportion
20 the increase in wealth. The func-
ton of organized capital is 10 create
wealth, while the function of organiz-
ed labor is 70 see that it is properly
distributed
Organized labor rs a menace to the
commonwealth ives well brought out by

GUILTY VERDICT
AGAINST DENISON
Woodmen Executive Council
Orders His Suspension for
One Year.
COMPLAINT BY NoRTHcoTT
Hearing of Charges Made Against
Former Head Consul by Du-
buque Member.

The trial of John d. Denison, Jr.,
Dubuque, Iowa, before the executive
council Of the Modern Woodmen So
ciety ended last night at 11:15, the
council returning an unanimous ver-
dict Of guilty and fixing the pun
ishment as suspension from all
rights and privileges OF membership
in the order for a period of one year.
Past Head Consul w. A .Northcott
Of Springfield. Ill, the complainant
IN the case, expressed himself as sat
isfied with the verdict, although he
had demanded that Denison be ex-
PEELED from membership In the So
ciety Head Clerk Hawes will COM
municate the decision of the council
TO Mr.. Denison.
The issues on which the case was
tried were charges brought by Mr..
Northcott as a member against Mr..
Denison as a member, under section
321 Of chapter At Of the society's
bylaws, defining offenses for which
a member may de disciplined. The
particular paragraph Of the bylaws
on which Mr. Northcott based his
contention reads: Making charges
OF causing same to be made against
q member, knowing the same to be
false"
DENIsoN OWN ATTORNEY.
The defendant, Mr.. Denison, con-
Quoted his own trial before the coun-
Gil. being a lawyer. and Mr.. North
colt had the assistance of Judge f.
S. Smith OF Springfield. Both the
plaintiff and defendant took the
stand during. the course OF the trial
yesterday and stood for an extended
cross examination. While 1t was at
tempted by the defendant to bring
IN many matters not pertinent to
the issue. the council held strictly
to the rule that no matter not direct
Iy relating TO the false statements
alleged to have been made by Mr..
Denison against Mr. Northcott
should be admitted in evidence.
1t is not known as yet whether or
not Mr.. Denison will take an ap-
peal from the decision of the execu-
tive council. He has that right un-
der the bylaws and IL he takes an
appeal, he viii doubtless give notice
within the next 80 days. and the case
will then go to the appeals and
grievances committee of the head
camp.
OTHER CHARGES NOT ISSUE.
The charges circulated by Mr..
Denison against various members Of
the society's board of directors and
other officers were not at issue in
the trial that has Just been con-
cluded. The only matter at issue
was the complaint filed by Mr..
Northcott against Mr.. Denison and
no attention was given by the coun-
ell to any other matters. This state
ment is made TO correct the i'm
preston existing that the executive
council or the members of the board
of directors. sitting as members of
the executive council, were passing
upon charges made against them
selves by Mr.. Denison.
