Political Notes.

Mayor II. l.. Kirk has issued call
for a special meeting OF the new city
| council. TO be held this afternoon at ,
O'Clock. Tor the purpose OF organizing
and canvassing the returns of the cleo
ton. AS there are Il Republicans
and only IL Democrats In the Second

the majority of the council commit
tees.
Previous To the meeting Of council
members OF the First Branch will eau
Gus for the election of clerk For

OF the Board Of Control. and Frank

cept II elected. The fight for this
position promises 10 be warm. as II
Is understood that the members OF the
First Branch are divided as 10 their
choice.
Frank Daley is tine only person that
has been mentioned as Democratic
caudidate for clerk Of the First
Branch, bur IL is not likely that his

OF the Republican majority.

"Frats" Barred.

Quincy, H., Sept. 20.-One Of the
new rules adopted by the board of ed
ucation is to the effect that there are
to be no secret clubs or societies in
the high school. Boys and girls will
be permitted TO organize social clubs
but the nature of them must not be
secret nor can any fraternities be or.
gained Action of the board in this
regard has been taken upon the con-
tention that the school is public, sup
ported by the taxpayers and that the
children of rich and poor alike are
eligible TO attend, regardless of social
standing 1t is believed by members
of the directorate that secret organ
izations make hard feelings among
students and that boys and girls OF
the families who have financial rating
would organize clubs from which the
poorer children would be excluded
The rule will be inforced, according
to E. G. Bauman, superintendent Of
schools, who is also in sympathy
with the board of education in its
stand against such organizations.

THE HOUSE MOVING NUISANCE.

Rock Island is afflicted with the
house moving nuisance, an experience
that is not uncommon TO a growing
city. In the majority of instances
where a house is pu. on wheels and
transported from one part of the city
to another it has made way for
more modern and substantial struc-
ture, and the building in transit is
as a rule, too valuable to permit of
| demolition. So that it is not a bad
! sign 10 see houses move.
The nuisance part of il is the meth
