Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1913-09-09

No one at all familiar with condi-
tons can deny that there should be
a bridge built across Rock river con-
Meeting Rock Island and Henry coun-
ties at some point. The ColonR site
seems to be generally approved. 1t is
manifestly the duty of the Rock Is
land county supervisors TO endeayor
to furnish their half of the money for
the improvement, submitting the ques-
ton of issuing bonds to the people,
if no other way seems open.
This county some years ago fur
nished its half of the funds for the
erection OF a bridge across the stream
connecting with Whiteside county
near Hillsdale and a bridge at ColoRa
is, If anything, more important be-
cause il would be an improvement in
one OF the main highways leading TO
the three cities which naturally car.
ries an increasing heavy traffic in
these days when the automobile is
growing more and more common.

the only points on Rock river entitled

FINE SHOWING IS
MADE IN REPORT
States Attorney F. E. Thomp-
son Makes First Collection
of Fees and Fines.
TOTAL AMOUNTS TO Slips
Under New Law Sums In State Cases
Are Turned Over to Prosecutor
Salary Comes Out Of Il.

States Attorney F E. Thompson to-
day deposited with County Treasurer
W. E Whiteside a check for s1,223,
the total of the fines and fees collect
ed in state cases in the various courts
of Rock Island county during the
months of July and August. A detail
ed report will be made to Judge R. W.
Olmsted in circuit court on the first
day of the approaching term.
Under the provisions of new law
passed by the legislature, the county
prosecutor is made collector of all
fines. fees and forfeitures in state
cases>in the county. This sum is to
be deposited with the county treasur-
er and is to be used in paying the sal
airy of the states attorney and his as
sistants, although they are to receive
their regular compensations, regard
less of the size of this fund.
Under the old law the fees in state
cases went 10 the county treasurer and
the fines and forfeitures to the county
superintendent Of schools, but now the
states attorney is collector for both,
turning the same over to the county
treasurer, who, after paying the coun-
ty prosecutor and his assistants, gives
the surplus over to the county super
intendent.

visors for Aid.

Believes Showing on Collection Of the
Fines and Fees Entitled Him
to Consideration.

When the board Of supervisors con-
vened this afternoon, States Attor-
ney F. E. Thompson introduced again
a resolution that he be allowed the
sum Of $500 for the salary of assist
ants in his Office, the same TO be eff
fect.ve from Dec. l, 1912.
REFUSED BEFORE.
At a previous session Of the board.
the matter was presented. The body
not only refused TO allow the sum ask
ed by Mr.. Thompson but passed a
resolution providing that 5000 be APP
propristed for assistants Mr.. Thomp-
son did not feel that this was
adequate and therefore this afternoon
once more urged the matter in per
son. He thinks the report of his col
lection of fines and fees for the past
two months, has been so satisfactory
that this should have considerable
weight in making the supervisors see
the necessity Of adequate compensa-
ton for his assistants.
The board was late in convenilg
this afternoon and little but routine
matters we're acted upon. Tomorrow
the board will get down to business.

Misrepresentation and Facts
About the Island City Ball Park

Argus is financially interested In the
land at the present time. Nothing
could be further from the truth. The
Argus has had no pecuniary interest in
baseball in all the history of the game
in Rock Island. II was at no time in
all the years that Rock island enjoyed
professional baseball a stakeholder in
the local association. Neither The
Argus nor anyone directly or remotely
connec ed with the publication is in
any way interested in the present own
ership Of the land in question. AS a
matter of fact, The Argus does not
even know who compose the syndicate
that Is in possession Of il, except what
is of common knowledge. That certain
well known business men are connect
ed with the syndicate Is generally un-
derstood. Who otherwise may be in
terested, The Argus does not know, ex-
ccpt that It has no interes: of its own
in the property.
For the information of those who
have busted themselves in spreading
these false reports, The Argus may
say that its interest in baseball and
all that has pertained thereto in Rock
Island has always been of an unprofit-
able nature, and has yielded only losses
on the one hand and such measures OF
gratitude On the other hand as are
shcwn in the present instance. In
other words, It has always been a
booster for the game and for the home
team, with nothing at stake save the
success Of the game, II helped raise
the funds fer the equipment of Island
City park and was Itself reasonably
fair contributor to those funds. In all
the 10 years that Rock Island had a
league team, The Argus cash outlay,
independents of what il gave freely of
its space for promoting the game,
amounted to from $50 to 500 annual
ly. viii any of the husy-bodies who
are circulating faIsehoods about 1t, say
that their loyalty to baseball or to the
'cisy in which they live has been shown
in similar manner?
What The Argus has gotten out of
baseball, apart from the satisfaction
of having the game fostered and sup
rorted here, and seeing the town cred
itaby represented, could be Included
in a SooS-sized cipher. II has been
money out all along the line, and it
has never asked even so much as a
thank you" either from the local as
ISOLATION or the fans.
II baseball Is saved TO Rock Island
by the people next Thursday, The Ar
gus will boost for the home team as in
| the past, no matter who the stock
holders may be, and If ii is knocked
out, The Argus will manage to live
without it, as the other people will be
forced to do.

to county bridge. People in the
lower end need a shorter road to
Rock Island and to make 1t possible
to build it bridges across Rock river
near its mouth and across the Henne-
pin canal must be provided for The
United States government should
bridge the canal, but there is no good
reason why the county should not pay
for the spanning of Rock river
The city of Rock Island has for
many years maintained its own
bridges at Milan and probably it is
just as well that It continue to do so,
for various reasons. Moline also owns
a bridge and has expressed no desire
TO part with control of Il.
So it seems but fair that Rock Is.
land and the lower end of the county
should take a stand for a new bridge
at the mouth of the river to be pro.
vided for at the same time and in the
same way as the proposed one at Co
Iona. If money cannot be raised other.
wise let the people vote on issuing
bonds for their erection.

Among the erroneous Impressions
that seem TO be prevailing in view of
the approaching special election is one
that the site of the present Island City
ball park was purchased by popular
subscription and that it has now pass
ed into the hands CT syndicate that
is seeking to hand Il over to the city
at an enormous profit. The simple
facts Of the matter are that the base
ball enclosure is but a small part Of
the tract that is put up TO the city to
buy, che entire strip embracing some
thing like II acres, while the ball park
includes but about four acres.
It is the entire parcel of land that
the city has the option Of purchasing,
contingent upon the vote of the peo-
pie Thursday, and no part of the land,
either that represented in the ball park
or otherwise, was acquired by popular
subscription. Ii was bought outright
by the syndicate, which has always
held it. What the people provided by
popular subscription was the equip
men, the fences, grand stand, bleach
ers, club house, etc. This represents
an expenditure of $500, which was
provides by subscriptions to which the
Tri-City Railway company was the
chief contributor. The land itself has
always been owned by the syndicate.
Another objection is based en- the
theory that if the city buys the park
It will be run over Unfortunately by
boys and eventually destroyed, and
further that il will be for free uses and
the city acquires the land, il will un-
doubtediy place it in the hands of the
park system Of which il will become 4
part, and while the major portion ly.
ing north Of the enclosure will be con-
verified into a free athletic field and
playground for the use Of the youth
and the children of the city, the par:

of il for league club, the city will ex.
Eect rental based upon the investment,
and the same will apply TO all institu.

purposes. II will net be run ever and
destroyed any more than is the present
park system. The thing the people
should understand is, the bail park is
only part Of the tract that The city is
20 vote on buying. There is more out
side the fence than there is in the en-
closure.
Still another report is being circu
lated by busy-bodies, as silly as it is
unfounded, is that The Argus zeal in
behalf of municipal ownership of the
tract is due to the fact that either The
Argus or some one connected with The

OWNERSHIP OF

Justice Kuehl Assumes Role of
Modern Solomon-Separates
Wheat from Chaff.

Judge, I have lost my dog" Choir
used Mrs. Kate Atkinson and Martin
O'Loughlin in Justice Kuehls court
yesterday afternoon.
"Whadaya mean you lost your dog ?"
said the justice, who despite his ad-
vanced years displayed surprising
knowledge of modern slang, as he
slowly glanced up from the legal pa
pers he was examining.
The explanation was then forthcom-
ing. Several days ago Martin O'Lough-
lin lost his dog. On Monday of last
week he discovered the prodigal on
the premises of Mrs. Atkinson, 1920
Fifth avenue. Upon asking for his
property he was informed that he
never owned the dog. He then went
to law and replevined the animal. Yes
terday afternoon both claimants plead
ed their cause before Justice Kuehl.
With all the wisdom OF the late
King Solomon the justice untangled
the knotty problem in a fifty. He
utilized the Socratic method with tell
ing success.
did you ever pay any dog tax for
this animal?" he asked the woman.
Mrs. Atkinson admitted that she had
not.
Did you ever pay any tax for this
dog" was the question shot at
0'Loughlin.
i"Yes, sir, your honor" replied the
man, land here's the receipts The
dog is yours" ruled the judge. Court
is adjourned"

in collision between the motorcycle
which he was riding and an automo-
