"SMALL BUsINEss"-Under this head
few days ago the Rock Island and Moline
Union rehearsed pitiful story about poor
widows boy who was not permitted to ap-
propriate the morning train of cars to Port
Byron to his own use for the purpose of ped
ding the morning Union; and fairly boiled
over with rage and abuse of the managers
of the railroad for daring to control their
own business.
The Davenport Gazette took up the cry, and
called it "a case of double distilled littleness,
wanted ''the matter ferreted out" and called
for terrible rebuke of the officer "who
would deprive poor widow of support.
The indignant editors should be aware,
lst. that the radical legislature of Illinois
enacted, at its last session, a law prohibit
ing, under severe penalties, any minor from
going upon the depot grounds or trains of
any railroad company, without permission !;
End, that this boy had no right whatever to
go upon the trains and Sd, that he became
so saucy and unmannerly to people on the
train that he was nuisance to some people
who were travelling.
If the Union can show any right that this
little saucy boy had to appropriate railroad
to his own use, without leave, we should be
glad to see it. Or any reason why any
newspaper should abuse a raj lroad company
for not surrendering the management of its
affai7s.to any ioafer who comes along.
Would the linton have made this assault
upon the railroad company if the boy had
been peddling the Argus and not the Union?
Guess not.
If our neighbors want any more informa-
ton in regard to the matter we are author
lied to refer them to the brakeman of the
Port Byron train.

Did not the radical congress dissolve the

Did not this congress establish military

Did it not establish bureau for the bene-

At copperhead meeting in Ohio recently the

have been written by Abraham Lincoln "in He'll"
It is needless to say that the democrats hailed
this profane sllusion to one of Americas noblest
heroes with loud cheers.-Nerr York Tribune.
Was it not that our experience with the
Tribune convinces US that like Pecksniff
it is sheet hypocritical in the extreme
protesting the greatest fairness, yet snap
ping up the most absurd statements and
giving them with an air of truth, we might
be surprised at seeing so silly and yetso out
rageous falsehood as the above in its col
umns. From beginning to end-without a
particle of truth to support it, the charge is
a bold falsehood. We do not expect the
Tribune to correct the misrepresentation for
that is out of it's line. Ohio Statesman.
