Mrs. Glenn is the only heir to the estate and it is under stood that she is eager to dispose of her property interests here and leave the city where she recently stood trial on the charge of manslaughter. The jury disagreed and it is being whis- pered in court circles that the case will not be re-tried. In that event Mrs. Glenn will be free to leave Phoenix if she pleaseS.
 The appraisers of Glenn's estate, S. J. Elkins, Charles Stotts and M. F. Fennell. valued the property, which consists of the residence on North Ninth street where the holiday tragedy occurred at over 5000. F.. O.

Built to Sell.

In connection with the operating troubles
of the Rock Island Southern it may be re-
called that its present owners built it to sell,
rather than to operate. The field was an in
viting one, rich in resources and poorly served
by steam lines, and another big railway sys-
TEN desired to tap the tri-city field, offering
a prospect of profitable sale.
The Walsh brothers had successfully engi-
ueered the Davenport & Suburban which they
wished upon the Tri-City Railway company at
a good round sum per wish, thereby contrib
uting to the subsequent delinquency OF the
Davenport lines of the latter concern Efforts
to get traction wedge into Rock Island in
similar fashion and for similar purposes failed
and The Argus takes some credit TO itself in
that connection.
When anything is built to sell the builder
usually keeps the outlay down to those things
which are essential to the purpose he has in
view. Nothing invested in the Rock Is
land Southern that was not necessary to put
it in operation. Wood instead of steel was
made to serve for bridges old box cars and
buildings constructed for other purposes we're
used stations. while second hand rolling
stock and other equipment was revamped and
used almost exclusively. The power house on
Edwards river which has been the source of
most of the trouble all along, was fitted out
as cheaply as possible.
About the time the Southern was ready for
the market the bottom fell out of railroad Sc
eurities and capital turned to other fields. Pos
sible purchasers were unable to finance ex-
tensions and so the Southern was left and re-
mains on the hands of its builders, while its
operating difficulties grow steadily more
serious.
Facilities OF the Rock Island Southern are
needed in the district it serves Instead of

Keep Out of 1t.

There is no good reason for Democrats to
suffer themselves to be dragged into the Re
publican fight over nomination of a candidate
for the constitutional convention at the pri-
mary next Wednesday. No doubt a good many
will be tempted by one or other Of the aspi-
rants The race promises to be close and the
inveigIing Of a few voters from outside the
party to take hand his behalf might swing
the day for some particular candidate.
Democrats have only one candidate. W. R.
Moore Of Moline and naturally they will take
little interest in their own primary They
should remember, however, that there will be
a presidential election next year and the pri-
maries will be of great importance. Partici-
patton in the Republican contest next Wednes-
day will operate as bar to voting in Demo-
cratic contests in 1920
Better think it over and consider whether
you are more interested in either of the Re
publican aspirants for seat in the state con-
stitutOnal convention than you will be in the
entire Democratic ticket next fall.

leges and universities Statistics show that a
surprisingly large per cent of college men re
sponded 10 their country's call. Military ser
vice and long absence from things scholastic
weaned many away permanently from their
books.
Departure of students and subsequent poor
enrolment forced some Of the smaller schools
to close their doors altogether. Others wealth
cred last year, but were not to reopen this
fall had the war continued This was practi-
cally the situation at William and Vashti,
which institution previous to the war boosted
several hundred male students, but which Mars
left nearly destitute.
However. peace is here and with it pros
perity. In the boom Of reconstruction attend
ant upon the wars close let the school, espe-
cialIy the small one, lift it's head in complete
resurrection. The war proved definitely that
education's value in its relation to the SOL
der cannot be over estimated.
1t is reasonable to assume that good SOL
der will make a good citizen, consequently
that which is essential for the former in the
way Of general education should be essential
in turning out the latter.
Illinois has many excellently equipped
minor colleges, among which William and
Vashn in AIedo is included. These schools
can be made to prosper, as some are already
prospecting. They can be put back on pre-war
footing. But it only be done by the united
backing of residents Of the territory served by
the institution. And realization OF the value
of education must come in the home before ma
terial to feed the college becomes available
in supporting suficiency.

Restoring Minor Colleges.

Action has been taken by the board of di-
rectors Of William and Vashd, Mercer county
college. to this year reinstate the commercial
department of the institution. If the enroll
ment is sufficiently large athletics are to be
resumed, Collegiate registration and work are
TO be boosted more than ever before. Every
effort is to be made to bring the college to its
standing Of pre-war days when enthusiastically
and athletically the Mercer county institution
ranked among the foremost of Illinois minor
colleges.
The steps taken by school officials of our
sister county to the south indicating as they
do revival Of interest in education and pur-
suits Of higher learning among Mercer county
people, may well be taken as an example by
college and university authorities throughout
the nation. The larger schools, of course, have
bestirred themselves to action of similar ma
ture, but many of the smaller institutions have
yet failed to shake off the deadening Ieth-
argy caused by the stringencies OF war.
Hostilities, with the Unsuitable demand for
men, Slapped the basic strength of our col

Brad's O. Verse
THE sunny SIDE.

All the world is decked with
bloom. all the skies are smiling.
Why should you be clothed in
gloom, grief and sorrow piling
Why not cast aside the woe and
the dark despairing; why not walk
where sunbeams glow when you
take an airing? Get on board the
merry boat-set your cares ATRIAL
ing; on the stream of gladness
float. with the joys go sailing;
hang your troubles on a limb, tie
them to rafter; leave behind your
worries grim; try bit O laughter.
All the world is full of love. all the
clouds are vapor; there's a CLINT OF
sun above ready for a caper; all
the woods are bright and green
and the fields are jolly-whats the
use TO feel so mean and SO melaG-
choIy? Take a little happy stroll
where the stars are shining
what's the use to soak your soul
full of black Tepining? Sorrow is
boomerang. grief comes back TIC
haunt you; give life's harp a joyful
twang, then the glooms won't tauut
you. Put your dreary thoughts
away, trouble do not borrow; have
a little fun today-never mind to-
morrow. GLEN BRADSHAW.

in a few days he told them, but
for two days past a sort of Ieth-
argy had come over him and Mrs.
Booth had said to Eleanor: Mr..
Brill is a sick man, dearie. and I'm
afraid we will have to send him to
the hospital. He has no money and
am way behind in my rent, and
oh, the poor good souls that a lit
tie help in time OF need would help
along!" and Eleanor went out try
ing to get a position at any price
and failed. Then this gloomy iso-
lation at the edge Of the park.
She noted a frayed edge of the
wrap she wore, the broken shoe.
and poked at the dirt about it aim
lessly with the point of her UNI
brella. She never took off its case
for fear the tattered fabric would
fall to pieces. As she prodded she
abruptly leaned forward-a bright
CLINT caught her eve. She poked
anew and drew a great long breath
as tiny but gorgeous lady's watch
came into view.
With eager, trembling hands,
Eleanor brushed the dirst from the
dainty bit of jewelry. The case
was encrusted with diamonds.
1T must be worth" and Flea
nor figured out an extravagant
value Then her face fell. But 1t
is not mine" she whispered to
herself. She arose with some pre-
cipitancy, looking e8citedly all
about her. holding tightly to the
priceless bundle with her hand in
her dress pocket
oh, dearie! Mr.. Brill has had
