THE ARGUS, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 25, 1902. B mm T T MOCT 4 I I HOW TO ECONOMIZE. OREE men economize so closely on the number of words in a telegram that the receiver can not understand it. This is not sensible economy. Neither is it sensible economy to ruin garments of value with cheap soap or powerful chemicals that eat into the fabric True economy uses Ivory Soap in the laundry. It is the most of pure soap that can be sold for the money. Chemically it is as innocent as water. Yet it does everything you can ask of a soap. Try it I REVIVE PROJECT OF MAKING ROCK RIVER NAVIGABLE . After a lajst' of nearly 03 years, says the Chicago Chronicle. Kock river between J Suck Island and Kock ford is likely to In' made navigable. In the rivers anil harbor bill, signed by President llooscvclt reeeli t ly. t here was an appropriation of $1Mi.ihmi for a survey of the river between those two points looking towards slaek vater navigation. This mote has called to mind the first attempts at navigation on the riter and the earliest eanal ever started in the state. It was in 1 tv hen work was begun at Kock Falls, directly opposite the ohl totvn of Sterling on a eanal that was to afford a passage aroun 1 the rapids. That year an approprint ion of $40.0iM) was jiiade by the general jissembly under the internal improve ment aet for the purpose of making Ihe river navigable, it was planned 1o eonstrnet a eanal one-half mile in length "ii the ll'nk Falls siile of the rit cr. Wi.rk was begun on the eanal in 1si and considerable' fie'ad'vvTiy made" whMi hanl times eame on and the pro ject was abandoned. To this day the rough stout- work may be seen on the south bank of the river and in low w a ter t he ripra ppitir and the em bankment 'are visible. The abandon ment of the work was due to hard times and laek of state funds. The men vvrr paid otT in state script, which depreciated to CO cents on the dollar. The first steamboat came i:p the river as far as Ihe ttvo little villages in 1"0'", but encountered the rapids and could not proceed further. A meeting was held on the boat to es tablish a ot office at Sterling. The place .grew and the jcople of White side county petitioned for aid and the general assembly, then dealing' out things with a lavish hand, readily granted the r ipiest for assistance in making the IJock river navigable. After the appropriation was made the contract for building the canal was let to K. .1. Nichols of I'rophets towii and a large force of men was set to work. The work was but well under v y when the hard times of and came over the country and there was a great stagnation in business. The workmen refused to proceed unless they were paid in money that was not depreciated. The partially com pleted canal was abandoned. Virulent ( nrr Curnl.

F. Mclntyre. to succeed C. P.. Marshall, were elected without op position o membership in the Kock Island board of education yesterday. It is the first time in years direc tors have been chosen without a contest, and indicates a sentiment supporting the adoption of a policy that has been .advocated from the first by The Argus. The total vote cast was lOH, divid ed as follows: First, Second and Third wards. 61; Fourth and Fifth, 70; Sixth and Seventh, 62. In the latter precinct seven of the ballots were cast by ladies. The outcome of the elect ion should be gratifying tit every citizen feeling an interest in the welfare of the pub lic school system, especially in the spirit shown in the absence of any partisanship. While both Messrs. Seidel nnd Mc lntyre are democrats, the three hold over niemhers of the board, Messrs. Deiikmann, Hull and Stewart, are re publicans. Adhering to the com mendable plan introduced in the present instance, the republicans should hate the. field undisputed in the next two elections for school di rectors, provided they put up as good men as represent them at present on the board. Ten Years In Hed. K. A. Gray, J. P., Oakvillr, Ind., writes: "For 10 years I was confined to my bed with disease ot my kid neys. It was so severe that I could not move rart of the time.

SCENE OF COMMON EXPERIENCES Charter Closed With Membership ol 14 Ofllccrs Are Klcctcd. Siboney Fay camp is the name that was given the local organization of theNatiojial Association of Spanish Americaii War Veterans formed in Company A's quarters at the armory last night. The new camp starts out with a membership of II and the fol lowing roster of officers: Commander W. T. Channoii. Senior Vice Commander F. L. Tubus. Junior Vice Commander K. Lund berg. Adjutant F. C. Downs. Quartermaster ti. W. Flood. Chaplain A rt hur ( iraha m. Officer of (he Guard John Schmidt. Officer of the Day John W. Carse. Col. KlttllHen AdtlncH. The meeting last evening was pre sided over by Aiaj. ( liaiinmi and F. C. Downs acted as temporary secre tary. Lieut. Col. I'M KittiKcn, of Moliiic, commander of the camp in that city, was present and explained the objects of the association and t he method of perfecting an organiza tion. The rolls were then signed, all branches of the service being rep resented in the membership, and the charter was closed. After the election of officers the selection of a name was taken up. Many were in favor of honoring Maj. Channon in the choice of a title, but that gentleman objected and urged that some name be stlcctcl if pos sible representing a place or object if common interest to both the sol diers and sailors. After a great leal of discussion SMioney Fay was thought of, and, meeting with fator, was adopted. Name In Nncsrenttve. Siboncy Fay ought to be sufficiently suggestive to both branches to add strength to the camp. Siboncy, it may be said in explanation, is over the mountains from Santiago on the south coast of Cub;-, and it was there the Tinted States ll. c; centered dur ing the long days and nights of watching at the mouth of a!itiai;o harbor. Tin-re is really no bay there ;'iid the ships could not anchor, but kept moving incessantly, going out to sea at night to avoid collision. A number of the members of the local naval reserves saw service there, and it was there that ihe greater part of the tt li Illinois, in cluding Company A. of this city, and Company F, of Moline, was brought preparatory to landing just at the time of the capitulation of Santiago. The transports lay there about a week before being finally removed to Guautanamo bay preparatory to moving on Porto Kieo. The name is particularly suggestive to members of Company A on account of Siboncy hating been the first place where a semblance of real war was witnessed and where the first intimate ac quaintance was gained with the pe culiarities of a tropical climate. Adjutant Downs was instructed to write for a charter for the new camp, and an adjournment was taken subject to the call of the commander, with the understanding that another meeting will be held when the char ter arrives.
