The commercial men who visited
Nauvoo last Friday and were twice
beaten in ball game, threaten to en-
ter protest because Nauvoo's bust
ness men who opposed them in these
gamse are accused Of having had Ave
league players in their lineup. Geo.
Burk, the popular Keokuk soda pop
man was to have been in these games
but he absent-mindedly left his uni
form on the train which sped on to
Burlington with it, causing him to be
unable to enter the contest which
will be another item that will be
placed in the protest. 1t is believed
that Umpire Beger of Nauvoo will
give it an official hearing.
It is nothing but fair that the men
should lame themselves little work
| ing on the roads. The horses have
been doing it for years. Nauvoo
, should have good roads leading In
every direction because it has the
scenic beauty.

sending us hot weather, with an oc-
