their names and memories with the name OF

po,nss Of the Whisky Ring.

An exchange sums up the revelations of
u recent trial in this state:
The trial of two men in Peoria, on .
charge Of stealing twenty-one barrels Of
whisky from railroad ear, developed some
interesting facts in relation TO how illicit
whisky is run off Il appears that it has
been a regular thing for what is known as
the "Pekin whisky ring" to ship carloads Of
whisky by the Peoria, Pekin and jackson
vile railroad. to Peoria, run it up the Rock
Island railroad track above the city, and at
night hire the switchman on the same road
to run it down and put it in Q freight train
on the Toledo, Peoria and Warsaw railroad
that was already made up, to start out early
in the morning for Logansport, Indiana
Sometimes it was taken to one of the Chica

and unloaded there. One witness, an EN-
ploye Of the Rock Island railroad company
swore that he had done this thing thirty o.
forty times.

We find the following paragraph in the
CHICAGO Repablicdn. 1t SAYS: 1898

We find the following paragraph in the
Chicago Republican. Ii says: t3f
"Sueh In part of the material which to-day
constitute part Of the democratic party. Gen-
eral Forrest goes to the July convention in New
York, his hands red with the blood Of murdered
soldiers Of the United States, to represent Tea
nessee as one of it's delegates--as an appropriate
exponent of the men whom the state delights TO
honor-as a fair exemplifcation of the ideas and
feelings of his constituents" a..H
The above is "played out" Whom did
the republican party have in the Chicago
cenvention2 Such men as Gov. Brown, of
Georgia. Brown was an original seces,
sionist. He was one of the "precipitators" Of
that measure, which Gen. Forrest was not.
Forrest opposed secession. Brown favored
il, and after he had induced the people to
accept it, he abandoned il, Forrest did not,
but fought until the close. Which is the
most honorable man2 The original fOme u
tor of q struggle, who, after it has com
menced, in accordance with his suggestions,
Hignominiously backs out, or one who oppo-
ses the reimbursement Of fight, but after
he is in it, adheres to it like man and a
hero? The republicans prefer such men as
the former. The democracy the latter.-Cfn-
cinRuti Enquirer.

H;0hIv Unfortunate.

In his letter to Ike Morris, written on the
goth of January, 1864, Gen. Grant says:
"In your letter sou say that have il in my
power to be the next President. This is the
last thing in the world desire. Iscoatd regard
such a consummatioa as being highly uafortamate
for myself, If nofJ she eoaat,y."
This Is certainly an honest and candid
confession. And we opine the people viii
agree with General Grant that his election
to the presidency would be "highly unfortu-
nate both for himself and the country" and
as it is "the last thing in the world" he de.
sires, they viii comply with his wishes and
allow him to remain in his present position
as general of the army position which he
says in this game letter, he Infinitely prefers
10 that fany civil Office within the gift of
the people," By all means let us carry out
General Grants wishes.

EDITOR OF THE ARGUs.-Being entirely
unacquainted with the history of the editor
of the Union, draw the inference that his
antecedents are far from being respectable,
from his recent uDgentlemanly and uncalled
for attack ON the Scott county school mis-
tresses. 1t does not appear that these sew
enty-fve young ladies we're guilty of any in
decorum or they would have been duly
commented upon by the ungallant Captain,
whose defence of his country is open to much
suspicion, when he can be guilty of such
rudeness towards his countrywomen. Itrust
that those ladies, when reading his remarks
on their visit to Rock Island, will apply TO
this case the remarks ofa celebrated French
man, "a gentleman aciu not insult me, and

What the People are Taxed For.

On the llth instant, the senate passed the
bill to continue the freedmen's bureau until
July, 1869. Il had passed the house and,
whether vetoed or not, viii become law.
By it the ax-payers win be called upon to
pay about twelve millions for the support Of
negroes, satraps, yankee school marms and
lazy carpetbaggers. Is this the kind of re-
trenchment and economy talked of in the
Grant Chicago platform?
But this is not all. Estimates for the sup
port of our navy for the ensuing year are set
down at thirty three millions of dollars. To
be sure this is vastly less than for the sup
port of a standing army to keep white peo-
pie in the south under the negroes feet. But
SO, 100000 is a pretty round sum for the
tax payers to fork over for little or nothing.
Our navy is unemployed, and good economy
would suggest the reduction of its expenses.
| Nothing of the sort is done or proposed.
Again, we ask, is this the kind of reform
and economy talked of in the Grant Chicago
platform
How do the tar-narars ike ;t9

Hon. Dick Yates the recognized organ
and mouth piece Of the radical party of Illi-
nois in the u. s. Senate, made a speech a
few days since in that body, in which he
charged his political friends with downright
cowardice in attempting to dodge the real,
live issues Of the presidential campaign.
Dick is no half way fellow. He goes the
whole hog or none. He regards Grant as a
very small pig. and doesn't think much
more of the delegates lin The Chicago con-
vention who concocted the radical platform.
In this speech, Yates, speaking of negro suf
frage, says:
What Is the duty Of the republican party on
this question? VIII il stand back appalled,,
Win it join the states rights party on the other
side of the hall 4 He had TO say TO senators and
representatives, to all members of the republican
party, that this question mHstA b aaet. They
could not bury their headsin tho sand No
question of tariff finance conld obscure it-not
even the mighty name of Gen. Grant. Our op-
ponents will meet on every stump, and ask as
what We are going to do-whether zoe are for ana
uersal suffrage erery,ehere? Timid counsels must
not prevail. Five millions of redeemed slaves
ask as what We win do. Is his fellow members
OF the republican party refused to meet this ques
tion he could tell them what would be the result
in Illinois: the republican party could be beat 9y
$4,000 ma jority.
| II Will Ue seeu that tniS pfoihlneut AaufSoa
senator and party leader, puts the democrat
ic majority in this state next fall at a very
high fgure-and yet, we shall not be sur
| Prised if his estimate proves to have been
we'll considered, and turns out to be correct.
We hope, at all events that he will not be
mistaken in his calculation. The democra-
| cy had not expected to carry the state by
more than fifty thousand majority; but it
may be, as Yates says it viii, that If the mig
gers are not allowed to vote, we shall carry
the state by seventy.fve thousand. If the
negroes voted, they would reduce our major
| ity probably twenty-five thousand, which
would bring it to about the figures. the dem
1 ocracy had counted upon. So Messrs. Rad
icals make up your minds to an overwhelm-
| ing, inglorious defeat in this state next fall
We have the authority of your own senator,
Dick Yates, for predicting that If the negroes
are not allowed to vote, "the republican par
ty will be beaten by $4,000 majority" We
are taking bets on $4,000. Where are the
bondholders? Invest "some" in Illinois, il
you really think there's any show to get your
money back. Wen bet al ours on $4,000
