NEW PARTIES RISING
ON POLITICAL HORIZON
Former Secretary Of War Garrison
Sees Lineup Of Conservatives
Aua,nst RadicalS

Denver, Colo, Sept. 26,-That the
two great political parties in the Unit
ed States are having difficulty to find
an issue upon which they can differ
materially, and that the natural out
come of the situation is likely to re-
suit In the scrapping of the Republican
and Democrat parties in favor OF
new political lineup of conservatives
and radicals, is the opinion of Lindley
NJ. Garrison, formerly secretary of war
who is here to attend a hearing in the
United States district court
Despite the fact that Winfield Scott
Hancock was defeated for the presi'
dency because he said The tariff is a
local issue, Mr.. Garrison said, II am
inclined to believe he was right What
Is there then for partlsans to quarrel
about?
"There Is, however, a very decided
difference of op nion among American
people regarding our constitution
While class myself as a conservative
| have no quarrel with that large and
growing body of Americans who feel
that this country has outgrown its con
stitution, and that the time for change
in our fam of government is here
They have a legitimate right to work
for the carrying out of their opinions
provided lawful measures are used. A
new political alignment is imminent in
America the conservatives of botf
| nartips against the rad Gals"
Mr.. Garrison expressed the opinion
that the new parties are not likely tC
make their appearance before the mex
presidential election.

test either with Harry WIS, Negro
heavyweight, or Harry Greb OF Pitts
burg, American Light heavyweight
titleholder, Thomas +. O'Rourke,
matchmaker OF the Republic Athletic
club, said last night in confirming
Associated Press dispatches of a
proposition made by him to the con.
queror Of Georges Carpenter.
O'Rourke however. said that his
offer was for s25. 600 or a privilege OF
25 per cent Of the gate receipts in.
stead OF the cabled figure OF $4,000.
O'Rourke has received no direct
answer from Skis manager. Until
he does he declined to indicate what
attitude he would take toward the
Senegalese boxers demand for 1000.
900 francs, approximately $4,000 at
the current rate of exchange for con
test with Wills this month, The
matchmaker added that his offer for
bouts with Wills and Greb had been
made separately. although on the
same terms. and expressed the be-
ief that the reply from Sikh was sent
prior to receipt OF the Greb offer.
The Republic A. c. lossee OF box

can stage contest between SIKH and
either Wills or Greb any time IN Oc
tober after the worlds series
O'Rourke declared. He said that the
suggestion Of October 26 as the date
for either contest was but tentative
He pointed out that Sih's weight
ia pounds, in his fight with Car
pentier, places him in the light heavy
weight class and that a match with
Greg would be more desirable on that
account. Wills weighs around 2lO
and in bout with the Senegalese
would possess an advantage OF well
over 80 pounds.

FAKE MASON
UNDER ARREST
Organizer of Spurious Lodges Tried
for Using Malls to Defraud;
Took Thousands from Dupes.

A fake Master Mason OF Ameri-
ca" Matthew McBlain Thomson
has been run down and is at pres
ent on trial before Federal Judge
Martin J. Wade in Davenport on
the charge of using the mails TO
defraud. Judge Wade was called
into the case because the federal
Judge at Salt Lake City is a Mason
and did not wish to preside, think
ing that he might have some preju-
dice against the defendant.
According to the disclosures OF a
detective agency and OF secret serv-
ice men, Thomson has collected
thousands of dollars by forming
spurious Masonic lodges and col
lecting fees.
He charged anything the traffic
would bear. II a candidate was
wealthy he might pay $500 to be-
come a Mason If he were poor,
Thomson might let him off with a
five spot. II the man had cash he
took it, If not. a note was accepted.
In one case he received $35 in cash
and $115 in sugar from a grocer
who was a candidate for higher
degree.
When Louis Block was grand mas
ter of the grand lodge of Iowa he
proceeded against the bogus or
ganization, and Thomson wazed
very indignant, claiming he was
operating under a higher dispense
ton than state grand lodges. He
said he was a 49th degree Mason
and declared he had discovered rec
ords which made the comforting Of
even the 99th degree possible.
There are so witnesses against
Thomson, including high Masonic
officials. One of these officials is
David Reid. grand secretary of the
grand lodge of Scotland; Delmar D.
Darrah of Bloomington, Ill, past
grand master and a high Masonic
authority.
At one time Thomson was a
member of lodge in Scotland. He
was expelled, however, for fraudu-
lent actions and since has been liv
ing off his knowledge of Masonry.

When Spencer Was the Finest

Wncn spencer Was TIC Eincets
The rapid rise of the movie in
the amusement scale has a local
illustration in the case of the Spen-
Ger Square theatre When opened
a few years ago it was the finest in
the tri-cities, and it drew patronage
from many surrounding towns be-
cause of the inviting contrast that
it afforded when compared with
the average movie house of that
time With growing popularity and
permanancy of the screened play,
and the increasing attractiveness OF
investment in the business, archi-
tectural masterpieces have risen in
all parts OF the country represent
ing expenditures in some single in
stances of fabulous OUTLAWS. In
reducing the price of admission at
the Spencer, the management has
every reason to feel that the
house will continue in the enjoy
ment of large patronage, the the,
atre from it's opening always haV-
ing had profitable clientele.
Rock Island thus is better situated
in the moving picture field than
most cities of it's size. Where else
where there are two or more
houses battling for first position,
each of the local movie houses has
it's place, with the result that all
are prospecting.
