HATr np ill a nilllin
NU It Ur WARNmU
Koundril at Annual Meeting of Illi
nois Ij'qoor Dealer Asso
elation. CYCLONIC CLOUD IS SEEN
Temperance Folk Are Making More
Vigorous Crusade Than
Ever Before.
Delegates to the 25th annual con
vent ion of the I liquor Dealers' Asso
ciation of Illinois, now in session at
Belleville, rail it a silver jubilee.
"It's a jubilee all around," said one
of the delegates. "We're jubileeing
here, and I stipiose some of the bar
tenders left in rhar.ee at home arc
holding a little private silver jubilee
of their own with the cash registers."
Uelleille is about the nearest ap
proach to a German town to be found
outside of the empire itself, and th
visitors are being treated to object
lessons in wide openness that would
cause Carrie Nation, if she were pres
ent, to swap her hatchet off for a
broadax.
Spenk Knitllxh I.Ik Native.
Time was not so long ago that an
American born person needed an inter
preter if he had official business to
transact in Belleville, but that is
changed now. Practically every citi
zen speaks English like a native of
Belleville.
President Maiwurm's report attract
ed attention and it also sounded a note
of alarm. "A dark cloud," he said,
"of cyclonic force is hovering over the
trade in Illinois, and although we suc
ceeded in preventing the passage of
tin; local option bill at our last legis
lature, the work of reorganizing was
immediately commenced by the Anti
Saloon league, and. buoyed up with
large contributions of $10,000 each
from Andrew Carnegie and J. H.
Heinz, unci smaller donations from
thousands of others, have caused them
to enlarge their headquarters anil em
ploy additional force in order to carry
their pet scheme at the coming session
of the legislature."
I. Ine I t fur l"lth.
He calls upon the trade to get ready
to tight the measure, and says that
many liquor dealers do not realize that
had if not been for the heroic work of
this association during the last 25
years in defeating objectionable legis
lation and in other ways protecting
their rights and liberties, they would
long ere this have been driven out of
business.
"The passage of a local option bill
in Illinois," he says, "is bnt for the
purpose of additig fresh burdens to
the saloonkeeper. It is one of those
mythical laws that may sound right in
theory, but not in practice, and which
are too ciften forced on us by these so
Celled law and order leagues only to
give annoyance and increase expenses
to our governing bodies, without any
corresponding improvement in the con
dition of affairs."
"The passage of any law that re
stricts the number of saloons," says
President Maiwurm. "results in the
Mibstiiution of the drug store. In Chi
cago, since the passage and strict en
forcement of the f o'clock closing or
dinance, it is estimated that over MOO
drug stores that formerly closed at 11
o'clock now keep open all night, and
in our prohibition districts the terri
tory is simply flooded with drug stores
and at the junction of cross town lines
there is located a drug store on each
corner."
'! nihf I'oltrr.
Secretary M. .1. McCarthy's report
was largely statistical, but not alto-;
get her so. He made a plea for the re
spectable liquor dealers on the ground
that their business is strictly legiti
mate and creditable. In Bishop Henry
C. Potter, of New York, he recognizes
a broad-minded person who should be
a power for good. But he does not
concede that the subway tavern is
unique.
"In no way," he says, "does this so
called 'model saloon' differ from that
conducted by a large majority of our
members. et its opening was graced
by no less a person than Bishop Pot
ter, who has been in the past so out
spoken in favor of the legitimate liquor
dealer and the absolute necessity of a
projH rly conducted saloon, and in the
nurse of his remarks so aptly declar
ed 'that to shut tip the saloon is the
most tragic and at the same time the
most comic feature of modern history."
"It is hardly necessary to say that
the good bishop has been most cruelly
criticised by the fanatical element
whose theories he has so openly de
nounced: but he has earned for himself
the hearty approval of all the leading
journals and the greatest minds in
this and other countries."
Ilrnuuirra III I)hr.
"It has been the policy of the Anti
Saloon league ;nd other temperance
fanatics." Mr. McCarthy says, "to in
discriminately abuse and villify all en
gaged in this business, irrespective of
the business qualifications of the deal
er. We claim, and justly so. that those
who are members of this organization
should, and do. keep respectable places,
and it is unfair to class them with the
dives, which we all detest and despise,
conducted as they generally are by ir
responsible persons who have been
started in business by some brewery.
because of their suppsed ability to
seii !eer. ami witnout any regard to
their knowlodge of the business, their
moral character, and their regard lor
their fellowman. It is such men that
Ibring upon the trade the odium which
""justly rpaots on all.
Belleville, being only an hour's ride
from the Pike over St. Louis way,
across the big bridge, practically all
the delegates will take in the fair be
fore they return to their several homes
Meantime Tne local committee is
giving them the time of their lives, the
onl3 drawback being that there are so
many total abstainers present that re
freshments are a drug in the market

NEW RULES ABOUT SAME
Spectator Will Not be Confused Fol
lowing Football Games.
Football authorities have not been
planning for many changes in the
style of play this fall as a result of the
new rules adopted by the general com
mittee early this spring and just pub
lished in full. A prominent Y'ale
alumnus, who has coached many teams
and who has been a close student of
football rules, said:
"The changes are simple enough
and will not cause any extensive alter
ation in the game in general. The
most radical is that which allows onlv
four points from a field kick", insteal
of five heretofore given.
"Next to this is the clause which in
sists that there must be six men on
the scrimmage line. This expressly
stipulates that, if there are not more
than six men on the scrimmage line,
one of those not in the line must be
outside the position occupied by the
end rush.
"As to the penalties, they are not to
be grouped this year under five and
fifteen yard classes, but this change is
one of clearness rather than anything
else. '
"The rule which clearly defines the
duties of the linesmen and the umpire
is important. I.ast year the two wait
ed for each other at times and there
was a general misunderstanding about
minor points. No benefit could be se
cured during the season through a di
vided responsibility.
"Under the new rules the linesman
is asked to watch the ends on their
offside play and on kicks, to note the
tripping of ends when they are going
down the field on kicks, and to detect
the ends in the roughing of fullbacks.
The umpire is left with practically the
same duties as before, with the above
exceptions."
ANNUAL MEETING OF THE
TRI-CITY PRESS CLUB
Members Enjoy Ride on New Daven
port & Suburban and Banquet
at Grand Isle.
A ride on a special car over the new-
Davenport & Suburban street railway
line to Grand Isle and a banquet at
that place where leading features of
the annual meeting of the Tri-City
Press club held last evening.
The members met at the St. James
hotel, Davenport, at 6 o'clock and
were whisked to the island resort in
short order on one of the new cars
of the tri-city's latest acquisition in
the shape of a traction line. The ride
was ended within less than a block of
the pavilion that was opened on the
island at the beginning of the present
season.
At the pavilion the club members
iouna .Manager uiaus ivuehl had pre
pared for their coming. A private
dining room was tastily decorated and
in it one of the finest spreads ever
enjoyed by the scribes was partaken
of.
At the business session following
the banquet the reports of the retiring
officers were read and various matters
pertaining to the welfare of the organ
ization discussed. The meeting ended
with the election of the following offi
cers:
President Robert Rexdale, Rock
Island.
ice presidents I. B. Haviland,
Davenport; John Sundine, Moline.
Secretary E. E. Buffuni, Rock Isl
and.
Directors F. V. Rinck, Rock Isl

DID NO PERCEPTIBLE HARM
State Crop Bulletin Reports Part of
Corn Crop Safe From Frost.
A cool wave passed over the state
the night of the 14th and light frost
formed in all sections on the morning
of the 15ih. The frost was very light
in character, and no preceptible dam
age ensued, except slight injury to ten
der plants in isolated low places. The
mean temperature was deficient, rang
ing 4 or 5 degrees below the season
able average. Well distributed show
ers occurred, putting the soil in fine
condition for plowing and seeding.
Farming operations, except where tem
porarily interrupted by rain, were
prosecuted under favorable conditions.
Plowing is well under way in most
sections and completed in some. A
considerable area has been sown to
wheat, rye. and timothy, but much
seeding of wheat remains to be done.
Some early sown wheat and rye fields
are showing green.
Corn was practically unscathed by
frost, and the reports of injury in low
places is inconsiderable. A portion of
the crop is now safe from injury by
frost .and the remainder is slowly ad
vancing toward maturity. The dates
fixed when the later corn will bo ripe
range from Oct. 1st to Oct. 10th, and
but little immature
after the latter date,
have been cut for
corn will remain
Some early fields
fodder. Grasses
have been revived by recent rains and
ample fall feed is indicated. Clover
is proceeding with satisfactory results.
Broomcorn is being harvested. An
average yield of good quality is indi
cated. Grapes of fine quality are yield
ing bountifully. Pears and plums are
promising. Apples will give a fair
yield in the northern section, but in
the central and southern districts tho
crop is very unpromising, being a fail
ure in many localities.
JULEP BOWS TO RYE.
Tli- siimmcr birds have flown aw;
The harvest fields are dry.
The corn grows riper every day.

Bay,
The thistle top is turning gray.
The autumn breezes sigh.
And as the soothing zephyrs play
Tile julep hows t rye.
The thrush lias hushed his merry lay.
A haze enshrouds the sky.
The sun sends down an ardent ray
As swift the days pi by.
And while the fairest blooms decay
The julep hows to rye.
The summer time in brave array
Is now no longer night.
The robin and the noisy jay
No more we may espy.
Tin- winter lime is on his way.
The julep l.ws to rye.

No more thy soft, green, pungent spray

Farewell the straws, the iced display.
