CLAIM HIS PLACE. Postmaster McEnery.of Moline, to Fall. "BEBI0TT3 CHARGE?' AEE EXPORTED Tharafora Conrraaanail Frlnea I Ad- aaaalatod to ' Sana His enecaaaa.- Utrnpn Beglna the U publican Straf Blafwr Recognition. According to YVashiagtjn advices the postoffice department ha de cided that sufficient cause is con. twined in 'serious charges'1 filed gainst Postmaster M. J. McEairy, ot Moline, to warrant his removal, and Congressman Prince has. been al- vised to recommend a successor. Mr. McEniry has as yet received no official notification of his canteni plated dismissal, nor has he, he says, had even an intimation of -he nature of the charges fiied'against him. He states, however, that if they are pnrely of a political nature. he bows humoly to the will of the powers that be, but he d esn't propose to submit without protest to imputa tions as broad as those contained in the Washington dispatch, no matter whether he is removed or not. If serious fault has been found with his official acts, he believes ha has a right to know what it is, the nature of the charge and thei name of tho person preferring it, not with a view or hope of retaining the offijo, bat that he may have opportunity to de fend his personal character. A number of Moline business men were interviewed this morning with reference to thd reported purpose of the department to remove Postmas ter McEairy on the strength of "ser ious charges," and there was much surprise expressed at the informa tion, for the general opinion was that he had made a modtl postmas ter, and had conduced the cilije in a businesi-Iike and satisfactory man ner.

McKin lej whose hopes are based on his distant relationship with the president will be renewed and pushed with vigorous energy, and a short but hot campaign it is believed will be the result. The chances for Mr. Eastman are regarded as tie best, not only becausn uf hi profes sion, congressman rnnce having turned one editor down in this coon- ty in the person of Walter Johnson of thi. city, but as the Deere-Ains-worth fnfluence is back of Eastman and he is also chairman of the re publican county committee.

The Union's obstinate opposition to the appointment of a police ma tron in Rock Island led it to present a ridiculous spectacle in its at tempted reply yesterday to the array of arguments gleaned from the let ters in Saturday's Argcs of chiefs of police in other cities in support of the need of such an ad junct to onr police system. Taking the varions duties that are properly assigned to the iffi-e as a matter of convenience in addition to those of necessity belonging to it, the morn ing paper disregards entirely the most essential requirements by garbling the letters mat The Argus had printed. It then insists that inasmuch as atl of the nses made of the matron in some of the other cities are not necessary in Rock Inl and, and that as the chief aim is to attend to women, and the women she has to attend to are for the most part the class Rxk Island is not cul tivating, we "should not seek to facilitate a change from condi tions essentially healthful and well deserving ot 'perpetuation." Was there ever more senseless and silly argument presented even by the Union? Yet the t elf tame psptr con tends that the duties of matron are just what it imagined them to be. The line of reasoning to which the Union abandons itself ia just what might have been exported of it, when it was energetically opposing a paid ore aepanmeni as it is now tne po nce matron mat as long as nock Island was not cultivating fires it did rot need a reliable, properly rig ulated, paid department. Now its argument is that because Rock Isl and is not cultivating a certain class if women whom the law is called upon to deal with it requires no proper means of treating with such casts. On th same theory dismiss he police force on the ground that Rock Island is not cultivating crimi. nals or law violators. The thought trie union advances that to provide a police matron would "facilitate a change from conditions essentially healthful and well deserving ot per- petnation" is nnworthy of sound m nd, nor can it be accepted as emanating from sueb. Three years ago the Union was denouncing i ... . .. hock isiana as ttie most immoral town in the country, aud for weeks the reputation of the city was be- smirched, and slandered, and lied about through the columns of that sheet, and yet today the conditions are so essentia ly healthful, and well deserving of p rpe'.oation that the , Lolifse Installment company's qnar appointment of a police matron iters on Seotid avenue yesterday, would facilitate a change from euchj&e is acquainted with some conditions.

I ' , U . - , 'l,.(.UL.,t I , gratifying to note that the same aa- ministration which the Union ar - raigned for the state ot affairs im isgined existed, and consequentlv be wail-d in tho psst, is aain in power But the fact that the morn- paper ha9 established its own incon- sistency in one respect only makes its inconsistency in another retard the more apDarer.t. and reallu laugh provoking. Any person cf average intelligence wou'd not for a minute doubt that if the moial con ditions of Rock Island are healthy, the way to continue them so is to engage moral influence; which moral influences do not "facilitate a change from conditions essentially heaithful," baton the contrary pro mote those conditions "well deserv ing of perpetuation." Kvery com munication The Anacs published Saturday night show.d the police matron to be a moral influen e who has been found in other cities to be ostful in mar t additional respects for inspects iur tne com - fort and good of humanity, in stead of finding time so- heavily on her bands as to nuke it neressary to add janitor's duties to keep her busy, as the Union suggested a few dajs ajro would be the case. The Union is simply Becking to de lay the appointment of a police ma tron, because its customary obsti. nacy has led it to say the city should not have one. bat it is followinc its characteristic attitude, too, in giving neon to me senseless arguments, a course it could not well adopt other. wise in upholding a position so abso lutely aevoul of merit.

While it was reported at a resent meeting of the city eonncil that the mayor and ' city council had made abundantly satisfactory headway in the matter ot a site for the proposed reservoir, anything of a detinue na ture was cautiously guarded, nor would the major or any of the com mittee who are "next" to the situa tion divulge anything pertaining to facts np to the time of their going away.
