Plan of Withdrawal of One of New
Commissioners Not a Popular
One.

Moline city council last night
rejected plan for the merging of Mo
line and East Moline proposed by q
joint committee representing botH cit
les. One of the recommendations was
that one of the four commissioners to
be elected in Moline in the spring with
draw and that in his stead man to
represent East Moline be named. 1t is
understood that the eight nominees for
commissioner in Moline have agreed
to stand together against any move
ment to separate one of their number
from a Job. The plan proposed was
that East Moline continue to retain its
identity after the merger but that the
business of both cities be conducted as
one corporation.

GREAT HEARTS.

Hearts that are great beat never loud.
They muf1e their music when they
come;
They hurry away from the thronging
crowd
With Bonded brows and lips half
dumb.
And the world looks on and mutters.
Proud"
And when the great hearts have
passed away,
Men gather il awe and kiss their
schroud,
And in love they kneel around their
clay.
Hearts that are great are always
alone;
They never will manifest their
best;
Their greatest greatness is IN
known
Each knows a little - God the
rest. Father Ryan.

It is alleged that the several stock
led to believe that they were locating
the lands for their exclusive use, 'but
in truth and in fact for the use and
benefit OF the seven defendants and
the Michigan-Alaska Development com
pany.'
The Michigan-Alaska Development
company was organized under the
laws of Arizona. W. w McAlpine is

WHERE LAND IS.
The coal lands involved are situated
at Juneau, Alaska, and several con-
tiguous tracts IN the vicinity of HON
er, upon the westerly end OF Renal
peninsula bordering upon Cook inlet
The claims are said to have been 10
Gated by about 200 Detroit and Michi-
gan residents and a hundred other
claimants from New York, Chicago,
San Francisco, Seattle and other
western points.
1t is declared by the defendants
that strictly individual entry of the
lands has been made and that the Mi
chigan-Alaska company was organic
ed as a benefit association for the pur-
pose of aiding the stockholders or
claimants to better protect their title
and develop their lands. They deny
stock was to be sold and they insist
the corporation was not formed for
the exploitation of the coal lands in
the general market.
