TELEPHONE is Up
AGAIN TOMORROW
Both Sides of Contention Which
People Are Once More to
Pass Upon.

Tomorrow the people Of Rock Island
are to be called to vote once more on
the telephone question, the third time
within year. The proposition up for
consideration will be the granting of a
25-year franchise to an automatic tele-
phone company The ordinance to be
submitted was drawn by the company
seeking the privileges and the people
viii be obliged TO take it for what it
is worth. 1t is argued in behalf Of
the automatic ordinance that it will
insure quicker and more reliable ser
vice than by the old methods of tele-
phouic communication, and that alto
gether will prove more advantageous
and more satisfactory, while at the same
time acting as a check from eXtortions
from the Bell monopoly, which it is
charged. is not giving the service now
that it is capable of giving and is max
ing no effort to accommodate the
public and may at any time raise the
rates beyond the reach of the ordinary
telephone user. The company promises
to spend s2,500,000, and to pay its 60
pioyes d higher wage scale than that
now in operation by the Central Union.
In a word it offers the inducement OF
better service and lower rates ana d
large employment of labor during the
, installation of its plant
Those who are opposing the granting
Of the franchise contend that the auto
matte telephone is not success me
chanically, that the Union Electric
company some years ago was given
a franchise TO install automatic phones
and found it impracticable; that tbs
proposed ordinance has not been dis
Cussed or deliberated upon sufficiently
TO enable an intelligent vote on it;

people in restrictions, regulations Of

WARNS PARENTS OF
RAILROAD DANGERS

superintendent E. ]. Worden of the
Galesburg division of the Burlington
railroad addresses an open letter to
parents in which he admonishes them
to keep their children from trespass-
ing on the railroad tracks.
In his letter Mr.. Worden states that
20 per cent of the people killed every
year on railroads are children under
II years of age. He also states that
one of the difficulties with which many
switchmen have to contend is the
keeping of children out of the rail-
road yards. Many parents allow their
children to run at will and they in
many cases stray into the railroad
yards to play where they are run
over and killed.
Il feel that the parents of this city
should be frankly tod about the sit
uation," says Mr. Worden, and their
interests appealed to in the matter of
keeping children away from the com.
pany's grounds, except when they are
legitimately called there"

Committee SAYS
CHARGES AGAINST
SHERIFFARE TRUE
Recommends That Investiga-
ton Be Pushed In Inter
ests of County.

The board of supervisors met this
afternoon. Right off the reel, the big
matter of the session came up-the
report of the special committee on
the investigation of alleged graft in
the sheriff's Office. The report was
read and laid over until Wednesday
morning after members of the board
had evidenced a desire to adopt the
report and act on its recommends
lions. The report follows:
Since the September meeting of
the board, alleged irregularities in
the sheriff's office were brought to
the attention of our chairman. These
charges are:
Carrying prisoners on the Jail reg
lister after their discharge or release,
and also
Accepting money or other vaIu-
ables for the release of certain pris-
oners.
"Deeming such information of
enough importance to warrant an in
vestigatiOn, he appointed the Jail and
Jail accounts committee together with
himself, Leslie Hanna and J. C. Bur.
goyne to investigate the charges. The
committee has taken the testimony of
% witnesses and has their statements
as taken by stenOgrapher.
The committee believes that from
. the evidence secured, the charges are
I fully substantiated The testimony OBJ
/ tanned relates directly TO the sheriff
/ but in the estimation of the commit.
/ tee It can with further evidence be
made to include others. In order Ia
/ protect the County's interests the com
/ mirtee suggests the retaining of com
/ petent counsel to assist the states
/ attorney in the prosecution of these
{ charges.
The committee further asks thai
/ it, or some other committee be giver
. full power and authority TO do what
! soeyer seems best to push this matter
to the limit. Respectfully,
GEORGE H. RICHMOND.

ATTENTION union MEN
Statement by a Representative
of Organized Labor.

The controversy between the cleo
triCal workers organization and the
Automatic Telephone company placed
an unjust position.
The trust is bringing some power,
full opposition against the Automatic
Telephone company and labor is be-
Ing misled, in fact it is being used by
the hirelings of the telephone trust
to defeat the Automatic Home Tele-
phone company.
VIII labor be made a goat again for
a big corporation?
Organized labor wants industry,
wants good working conditions which
the Automatic guaranteed in its fran
chise. The telephone trust has al
ways made war on organized labor
and these tactics of getting few So
called union men to misrepresent or
ganized labor should be stopped
Some of the employees of the trust
have been distributing circulars, say
ing the Automatic Telephone company
was unfair to organized labor.
The Automatic Telephone company
is not on trial with organized labor.
but the telephone trust has bored into
some so-called union men to defeat
what organized labor has boosted and
successfully carried in Davenport and
Moline regardless of unfair tactics on
the part CT the trust
There is no boycott of any n1ture
declared by the organized labor bod
les in the tri-cities. This eleventh
hour traitorous business by the tele-
phone trust will be answered by the
organized workers Organized labor
will get to the bottom of this deal and
give the public a statement as soon
as the grievance committee gets done
with its investigation

limitations and that it is without suffi-
cient guarantee that it will be installed
or maintained; that the two-telephone
system in cities of Rock Islands class
has proven unpopular and that one,
Independent company having failed
here, the people will be again taking
upon themselves the double expense
they have just gotten rid Of Those
who oppose the granting of the fran
chise declare further that the CHEZ
promoter of the automatic helped de-
feat the Union Electric in its petit
ton for relief at an election for which
the Union Electric paid, while now
failing to relieve the taxpayers of the
expense of the present election out of
which the automatic company expects
to profit.
AS was stated in Saturday evenings
Argus union labor is fighting the grant
ing of the franchise on the ground that
the representatives of the company
have declined TO enter into an agree
ment to pay its employees a definite
increase of 10 per cent over the Cen
trail Union wage scale.

DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, Sept 27-That the
crop this month has suffered greatly by
adverse weather conditions is being more
and more confirmed by reliable reports.
Continued rainy weather in the eastern
states during the past wo weeks, coming
on top of a hot spell, caused the dam
age--the more so as the crop was Just
opening The map again shows unfa-
vorable, rainy weather overnight in the
eastern states and prospects are for con-
tnued rainy weather, except perhaps
clear and colder in North Carolina.
Weather conditions over the western half
of the belt are more favorable; practically
no rain; rising temperatures; but the
damage in Oklahoma is done.
A reliable party wires from that state:
'Al top crop prospect killed by the
cold weather; heavy to killing frost over
seriously damaged; at least 20 per cent.
The market however, seems to pay less
attention to change in crop prospects
than to the unfavorable technical situa.
ton and the spot situation
Liverpool came in today about points
lower than due and shows only 5000 spot
sales. quoting the tone of the market a:
pressed for sale"
Our market opened about points
lower on the weakness in the other mar
kets, made a few spasmodic attempts tC
rally, but support was not continued and
prices sagged back to the opening figures
Spot news Is not yet strong Demand

is holding up The advance In the basis
for good grades shows that fear Is en-
tertained Of the grade outturn.
