The Rock Island Union lie trying to make a
little cheap capital out of the fact Of the Coal
Valley Mining Company diIcharging ono Of its
hands who did 'nt.R attend to his business. II
hOVls out something about persecution for Opin-
ions sake. The siliest Kind Of nonsense, as all
who know p. l.. Gable will readily admit Day.
export Democrat.
The Union did make very pathetic article
on the subject, which was laughed at by all who
knew the facts. 1t arrayed its article in the
following startling sensation heads, viz:
"Dem ocrstic Prescription" "A Miner Dis
charged for Attending the Republican Mass
Meeting" 1t said this man was the "leader
of the Coal Valley band" and that mo reA'
son was assigned for his discharge and none
can be be given, except determination on
the part of the Mining Company to break
up the republican band" 1t is a party
band is it? And then it got up on its high
stills, and said
at is the most fragrant piece OF injustice and
oppression We ever heard of, north of Mason
and Dixou's line. tbs q manifestation of the
same RrlbtOcThtlC, uOlnlneeIluB sP'IN WHOM P'V'
vails in the south and compels negroes either to
vote the democratic ticket OF starve II is pOlit-
ical prescription in its worst form. Here is
poor man and foreigner, cut of from his only
means of supporting himself and family, because
he has political notions contrary to those Of his
aristocratic employers"
And then, this morning, it gets down on
its knees and eats humble pie and says
"As some persons have an idea that Kennedy
the miner who was discharged at Coal Valley
was in the employ ofthe Coal Valley Mining
Company, it is but justice to say that such was
not the case. He was employed in a separate
bank over which Mr.. Cable had no control"

and dares not deny that he did, at the re-

or anybody else, trust man to represent
the local interests Of Rock Island, who will

RADICAL FRAuDs.--The radicals are using

have been discovered and will be punished.
Let every democrat look out for frauds Of
all sorts, on Tuesday.

HARD ON THE PEoPLE.-It will DO harder
for the people to pay their city taxes this
year than it would have been to have paid
double the sum last year. Their taxes have
been increased by Murdocks administration
about one.,hird over last year. In other
words, man who paid 500 last year must
paw $l33 this year while ii is really about
as hard to raise SOC this year as it was to
raise 500 last year. The taxes, in order to
be as easy on the people this year as last
should have been made about one.third less
than they were last year.
