Inc Leap Year Bail Pronounced a
Grand Success by All
Who Attended
On Friday evening last the ladies OF
the Bridge Club, assisted by other ladies
OF the town, most royalty entertained
their gentlemen friends at banquet and
ball given at the Amusement Hall.
About seventy invitations had been issued
for the event and the responses were
quite general as sixty couple participated.
1t was Il ladies affair from beginning to
end. not gentleman being allowed TO
assist III any way. Under the direction
OF Mesdaines Skadden and Eichelberger
the hall had been handsomely decorated
the colors being red and green, and Il
profusion OF hearts were artistically sus-
pended in various designs from the cell
ing.
Promptly at the appointed hour the
grand march was called, which was led
by Mr.. and Mrs. c. +. Annett, and the
festivities began and he it said to the
credit of the ladies there was no hitch or
delay. and the gentlemen were kept so
busy in responding to the invitations OF
the fair ones that they did not even get
an Opportunity to enjoy the fragrant
Havana between the dances, and the
ladies took particular pains TO see that
there were no wall flowers on this
particular occasion at least.
Very neat and attractive programs
had been provided, which in addition
were quite unique as the various num-
bers we're followed by title which con-

a copy Of the program, and that it may

Arrangements had been made for the
serving oi refreshments which had been
placed under the direction OF Mrs. Max
well. and no apologies are necessary for
the able manner in which this bart OF
the program was carried out, as the
guests were promptly served with chick
ell salad. sandwiches, pickles, wafer
and coffee.
The music was furnished by the North
Side Orchestra, and they too must have
caught the invigorating spirit that pre-
dominated, as every touch OF their in
struments seemed to have thrilling
effect upon the dancers.
1t seems unnecessary 10 add that the
event marked one Of the most elaborat,

of the votes. Magill 40 per cent and
Franklin 10 per cent. There will prob
ably be 1900 votes cast Upon this
basis, Franklin will receive 100. Magil
600, and Searle $50
ROCK ISLAND COUNTY.
The sharp contest between Searle
and Magill is going to bring out very
large vote. There are also three can
didates for states attorney, four candi-
dates for coroner, two candidates for
recorder, and a warm fight on repre-
sentative. Most of the candidates for
governor have been here and formed
republican voters In Rock Island coun-
ty. The county has been growing very
fast and the contest is very spirited
here.
Four years ago in the contest be-
tween Congressman Mckinney and
Franklin, both non-residents OF the
county, Mckinney beat Franklin al
most three to one.
The situation is now different There
are two candidates from Rock Island
county. both dragging the county with
a fine-tooth comb for votes. It is con-
servatively estimated that there will
be at least $500 republican votes cast
at the primaries, and from the way II
looks now Searle and Magill will re-
ceive 1000 apiece and Franklin is con.
coded 500.

FORM FOR THE GOVERNORSHIP

time to suggest some subjects which
are ripe for legislative action.
FOR OREGON PLAN.
Il. Election CT senators should be
by the people, and until this is effect
cd by federal action the state should
adopt system similar 10 that prevail
ing in Oregon, providing for state
wide vote on senator and pledging
legislative candidates to abide by and
carry out the result thus declared.
With senatorial contests eliminated
from legislative consideration a Ions
step forward will be made in the di-
rection of legislative reform.
y. The present system Of minority
representation has net realized its ex-
pocted advantage and should be aban-
doned. Better results would flow from
the establishment of smaller legisla-
tive districts and the election of one
repres tentative from each district (com-
bining several for choosing the state
senator). thus bringing the represen-
tatives nearer to the people and facil-
itating more direct and more careful
selection of representatives.
80 Legislation should be safeguard.
cd by stringent provisions against the
sCandalous and dangerous last night
custom of the legislature, whereby in,
Vulnerable bills are rushed through
the legislature on the last night of the
session, without opportunity for con
| sideratiCn.
SIMPLER TAX SYSTEM.
"a. The revenue system should be
simplifed and impartially and justly
administered, so as TO assure equality
in the distribution of the burdens OF
taxation in proportion TO property
values
"5. Efficiency and economy in ad
ministration must be effected through
application of business principles tC
public affairs, elimination of politica
parasites from the public pay rolls
extension and faithful application Of
honest civil service laws, which SHOULD

In the present campaign l am abso-

POLITICAL ADVERTISING.

In announcing my candidacy for
the third time under the primary law,
l feel that l am justified in doing it
because of the fact that at each Of the
other primaries my nomination was
conceded by the opposition until the
official count declared that l was not
nominated; and l shall continue to
run until all doubt will be dissipated
for such official count.
Rock Island county has a state SEN
ator and two representatives Hender.
son county has one representative
while Mercer county has been without
any representation in the general as
sembly for the last six years: which in
| itself should be cause enough for the
united support of a Mercer county
man.
am not tied to any ring or set o.
men or producers, and if elected fee
certain that am qualified to represent
fairly and impartially all the interest!
in the district, whether they be far
mers, laborers or manufacturers o.
railroads.
In regard to the local option law nov
in force l think it has proven salts
factory and if elected | shall not vott
to change the same. If there are an.
issues on which my friends wish t,
know where | stand | will be glat
t. let them know if l know what the!
are.
l believe in the passage of an anti
pass law in the state and if elected
propose to pay my way or walk, a
| believe the acceptance of mileag
from the state and transportation from
railroads at the same time is a spe
cies of petty graft, both wrong in prin
ciple and unfair to the people. Jus
tax laws are important. We think L
the farmers of the country they ar
more important than of these othe
laws. Those property holders VIII,
are paying taxes on the full value o
their mortgaged property are certainl,

When the taxes of the state have beer

in excess of his salary for personal eX
penses for the past two years, so i'm
