IOWA WOMAN LOSES HOME
WHILE ON A VISIT HERE

Cedar Rapids. Iowa, June 24-It
was a rude shock that Mary Grimm
had when she returned from Rock Is
land last week to find that the man
who had promised to marry her had
wed another and then come to her
house and loaded up all her furniture
and snugly settled down to enjoy life
As a result Andrew Caparon was
hailed before Justice Nugent to give
q reason for his carting away what
goods Miss Grimm said were here
property.
According to Miss Grimm's story
she was keeping boarders and room
ers at 120 North Eighth street and
Caparon came to stay at the house.
He made such ardent love 20 Miss
Grimm that he won her trusting heart
and she had agreed to marry him.
She was going to her home in Rocs
Island few days previous to the weu.
ding, and returning Saturday what
was her surprise to find the house
vacant her household goods gone,
along with some silverware. An in.
vestigation proved that Caparon had
married another, had taken the house
hold goods and settled down to house
keeping in another place.
There is to be q hearing on the case
and the full details threshed out.

MOLINE


meeting of the East Moline high school
board it was decided to ask the state
supreme court for a rehearing Of the
case recently decided against the
school district, whereby the decision OF
Judge Ramsay holding the township
high school act of 1911 unconstitu-
tional and an order for custer and for
costs was directed against the school
board. A. B. johnson met with the
board and reported that as far as he
was able to learn there are 80 school
districts affected by the supreme court
decision, and to protect these schools
the legislature must pass at an early
date a curative act. Should a special
session be held this fall the governor
could include this in his message con-
vening the legislature in extraordinary
session.
Would Withdraw Order of SaIe.-Is-
sues connected with the winding up
of affairs of the Midland Motor com
pany of East Moline again are matters
for consideration in the federal court
in Springfield. A number of local at
torneys representing creditors of the
concern, among them G. A. Shallberg
and w. A. Meese, are in Springfield,
and they will ask the court to with
draw The order relative to sale Mon
day, June 80, of motor cars, materials
and merchandise now located in the
factory of the Midland company. and
certain cars in the Plow City garage
At the conclusion of the hearing in
the capital city last week the court
authorities ordered Receiver McCul-
Tough to advertise for bids for pur-
chase of certain of the company's tan
gible assets, the bids TO be returned
by next Monday. The three Spring
field men appointed as members Of
the board OF appraisers have conclud-
ed their work and report is due from
them by the court within a few days.
1t was on the basis of this report con-
corning valuation of the property that
the bids were to be received. In ask
ing for repeal of this order for the
sale the attorneys interested will OBJ
jet on the ground that the time al
lowed is altogether too brief and it is
feared that satisfactory bids will not
be obtained.
Naval Reserves Cruise Aug. g.
With local naval reserve boys the big
feature Of their squadron cruise will
be the Chicago water carnival which
they will be allowed to witness and
take part in. The Moline sailors have
been promised that their cruiser, the
Dubuque, will anchor in Chicago har-
Dor during the days that this jubilee
is being held. This carnival will be
enc of the largest ever arranged and
Illinois reserves believe that it will
! more than repay for all the hard work
of the trip. Aug. 9 is the date set for
the beginning Of the lake cruise, the
return being made about Aug. %.

SENATORS BY DIRECT VOTE.

Secretary of State Bryan has received
notice of the action of the legislatures OF
eighteen states upon the proposed con-
stitutional amendment providing tor the
direct election of senators by the peo-
pie.
So far not a single state has acted ad-
versely. The amendment has been ap-
proved by Massachusetts, Minnesota,
New York, Arizona, North Carolina, Ore
gon, Mississippi. Colorado. wyoming,
Idaho, Texas, Montana, illinois, Maine,
Nevada, New Hampshire, Wisconsin and
Vermont.
The last named state approved the
senatorial amendment and income tax
amendment Feb. 10, but the neglect OF
the state authorities to return the fact
to the state department promptly acted
to prevent the appearance OF Vermont
as one of the ratifying states named in
the formal notice issued by the secre-
tary of state of the full ratification OF
the sixteenth amendment.
Because of the large number of state
legislatures that meet only bi-annually,
it will be impossible to get the approval
Of the senatorial amendment by the
requisite three-fourths vote during the
present caiendar year.

MOVEMENT GAINING MOMENTUM.

Roanoke. Va--According TO the Era.
the local labor paper. the Central Labor
council is rapidly coming to the front as
a power for good to the community. The
attendance is larger than it has been
for years. and the work in prospect is
farreaching. The committee work is be
ing done with celebrity and is efficient.
The council is no longer burdened and
discouraged with debt. but has com
Portable balance in the treasury. An
other encouraging feature is that a num-
ber of unions that have hitherto taken
slight interest in the council are now
sending delegates and they are entering
heartily into the work. The paper men-
toned adds that the outlook is indeed
bright for the future and that the coming
year will chronicle many improvements
as the result of this renewed activity.

SUGGESTS AMENDMENT.

jefferson City. Mo.-A concurrent res
olution has been introduced in the state
legislature, asking congress to call a con-
stitutional convention or submit to the
several states, through n congressional
joint resolution. an amendment to the
constitution of the United States correct
ing the manner in which the constitu-
tionality OF state enactments shall be de-
termined by the supreme court OF the
United States. II is suggested in the
resolution that the United States consti-
tuition be so amended that every Ques-
tion involving the rights OF the state or
the validity or constitutionality of a
state law shall be decided by the concur
ring opinion of every member of the SUI
preme court and not by partial vote.

VIEWPOINT OF W. 3. WILSON.

William b. Wilson, the baby" mem
Der of the cabinet and head OF the new
department of labor, summed up in a
few words the policy that will govern
him in the discharge of his duties.
While. apparently. he resented the re-
port that he would be special pleader
in the cause of labor, he acknowledged
to entertaining strong convictions on
the labor question
1T would not be accurate to say that
represent organized labor in perform
ing my official duty" he said. Il shall
represent the government. OF course,
however. the point of view has much to
do with such matters"
Probably more interest is being taken
in the program of the department OF Ia
Dor than in any other executive depart
ment OF the government.
Appointed virtually at the instigation
OF Samuel Gompers, president of the
Federation of Labor, Wilson, 1t was
feared by those opposed to labor union
methods, would decide all questions
from the viewpoint of labor. and that
lie American Federation Of Labor would
be the dominating spirit in the new de
partment.
