DELICATE RusINEss--A Moline cores
pendent signing him self IN. S." rather
punctures our neighbor of the Union at his
most vulnerable point, and is so compli-
mentary as to charge him with following
"the prauks Of J. b. Danrortn j'," and also

and entirely for those of Rock Island.
Whatever course our respected predecessor
decided on, he was generally found most
consistent in following it out CARELESS of any
or all opposition. To such a charge the
Union can certainly plead mot guilty" with
the greatest yeracity. The charge that the
Union is laboring against the interests of
Moline is well founded. Our neighbor Of
that sheet, ike the Colossus of Rhodes, has
planted his feet upon two distinct tracts Of
terra trina between the hostile interests of
which several men Of war might safely sail.
When he is compelled tochoose upon which
spot to resthis entire weight, and with it his
hope Of Erecnbacks for the future, acting as
he does from policy aud not from principle,
he must pertorce espouse the stronger side.
In choosing between Rock Island and
Moline he must champion the former. The
delusion that he can oct for both is expIod,
ed. 1t is also insane conceit for him to i'm.
agine that either city will allow him to sug-
gest or direct its course or to decide its
disputes Neither is he his own Judge in
the matter. Being governed we suspect,
largely not entirely by the wishes Of his NJ.
hawley,who is working for fat fee how can
ne look to the interests Of Moline ? His oily
assurances are a Judas kiss which will
eventually betray his supporters in that
quarter. To conceal the fact that Rock
Island would ike to possess the disputed
territory is nonsense. 1t properly belongs
to Rock Island. Our limits are now too
contracted, and we intend sooner or later
to get it if we can. We give our Moline
friends fair warning and plain statement.
As will be seen by notice We publish
elsewhere, taken from the DavenPor. Demo
GRAFT there is some talk of starting a new
journal at Moline. This project may have
sprung from the present conflict of interests.
and the foresight and sagacity of some oil
the heaviest property holders Of that place.
At all events our neighbor will find cousd
cradle agility demanded of him, if be con,
tinues fighting for the interests of Rock |
Island, and at the same time succeeds in |
bsmbOozling bis patrons 9. Moline. !
