PACKED FOR
THREE FINGERED JACK
(By W. A. Gressman)

(By W. A. Gressman)
The Christian church last night had
all available space taken by the vast
crowd which densely packed the
building to hear Three Fingered
Jack" The meeting began at 7:15, as
all seating and standing capacity was
taken by that time, and many who
came after that time could not enter.
From every Indication, all who love
America and her ideals. and all who
desire better law enforcement in this
county, were with Jack in his heart
stirring address.
Jack Is unsparing in his denouncia-
tons Of l.. w. w. doctrine, having once
himself been an I. w. w. organizer, as
he stated In his morning talk. The /.
W. w. doctrine in itself Is more rotten
and dangerous to Americas welfare,
he said, than any war practices Of
Germany from whence came the pro-
paganda which originated l. W.
W.ism at Cripple Creek, Colorado. in
1903. He has on exhibition various
substantial recommendations Of his
work in various lines, including one
from the Portland police department
declaring that Jack collected 325 /. w.
w. cards in one district alone as a
result of five or six lectures to mem
bers Of that organization, the pre-
amble of whose constitution he had
the pastor read publicly at last nights
meeting.
Equally under ban comes every
other force Of evil such as would in
any way place loyalty by our people
In any government or authority other
than America first. He urged his
hearers to visit the county library and
call for a copy Of Congressional Rec
ord 1928 of Feb. 10. 1918, and IL II Is
missing, to ask for its restitution.
In urging law enforcement, Jack
shows no ieniency toward the officers
of the law in placing responsibility
upon them; but along with that, he in
e-s non the duty Of every citizen to
see that the law is enforced. and to
cooperate with the officers in that
work.
One of the numbers Of pleasing in
| terest to the audience last night was a
duet by Miss yastia Hoskins and Paul
| Mortimore.
Jack will speak again tonight at
1870.

NCINERATOR TO
COST TAXPAYERS
rs CENTS A YEAR
tsDeciH, Moline servln..,


Residents Of East Moline may be
required to collect and dispose of
their own rubbish and garbage, in
the event that the bond issue for
the proposed garbage incinerator
does not carry at the special cleo
ton Tuesday. 1t will cost the tax
payers less than rs cents a year for
the incinerator, and it would not
be possible, says Mayor Johnson,
for the individual to handle his
garbage for that small amount.
The indications were that no
serious opposition to the public i'm
proVement would develop at the
polls on Tuesday. Those who have
been asked for an expression on the
proposition declare they are firmly
convinced that the incinerator will
benefit the citizens not only from
the standpoint of sanitation but in
an economical way as well.
Despite this, however, there
seems to be an undercurrent of dis
satisfaction, which has led to mis-
statements being circulated relat-
ing to the location of the plant.
Mayor G. f. Johnson has prepared
a statement setting the people
Alright in this regard, also in the
matter Of taxation.
There are also rumors that the
board of directors of the Chamber
of Commerce are opposed to the in
Generator. At the forum OF the
Chamber OF Commerce several
week ago the consensus of opin-
ion was that the incinerator would
benefit the citizens in a large meas
ure. Conclusions of the forum were
referred to the director, but the
board did not put the chamber on
record for or against the PROPOSE

cost him a great deal more than rs
cents.
Therefore, I believe 1t to be most
logical from an economical stand
point to vote in favor of the bond
issue, both as a property owner
and as a renter. Il Is the small
property owner and the man who
pays rent who wi1l benefit most by
the incinerator plant. The manu-
featuring establishments will be
taxed at the same rate. although
they will not receive any direct ben
efits from the incinerator.
Give your city boost by CIV
ing it a modern garbage disposal
plant at a cost of less than 81 .

ton. This would have to be done
by referendum, and the directors
did not wish to appear that they
were attempting to defeat the pro-
tect, fnasmuch as the city council
had already voted TO have the cleo
ton on the bond issue. Not in any
meeting of the board of directors
has there been a dissenting voice
against the incinerator, and the in
dividual members of the board who
have been asked for expressions on
the proposition, are heartily in ia
vor Of the improvement
Editor Argus: / wish to correct
a mistaken report that the propos-
ed garbage incinerator plant will
be located on the city property
near Seventeenth street If the
bond issue carries at Tuesdays
election, the plant will be located
north OF the Milwaukee railroad
tracks and east of Seventh street
several hundred feet
The city reserved a right-of-way
along the storm drain and the plant
can be located between the Har-
vester plant and Seventh street,
where it will not be Objectionable
to anyone.
The bond issue will be spread
over a period of 20 years, and the
yearly tax to property holders will
not exceed rs cents for an ordinary
residence property.
The city has no place to dispose
of its garbage, and may decide, in
case the proposition is defeated, to
allow each individual to collect and
dispose of the garbage from his
own property. No householder can
possibly dispose of the rubbish
and garbage from his premises at
a cost of rs cents year; and for
the poor man who has to pay rent
it means this: that if the bond is
