direct and undisguised, is the one necessity OF the
situation; the only remedy for existing evils so
far as the currency has relation to them, and that
the nation cannot emerge from Its embarrass-

ministrators OF the law have the honesty and
courage TO take it up and carry it forward to the
end.

yery prosaic, but nevertheless imperative reason.

Cart. HNyFusrcK:-Iu yesterdays Union
you assert that | "hayo dropped the points at
issue between u.s. that have nothing more to
say Of that raid, and that you patiently wait
tor tho "next demonstration" Here it is:
ITO conceal the fact that Rock Island would
like 10 possess tho disputed territory" is non
sense. Improperly belongs to Rock Island. Uur
limits are now too contracted, and wo intend
sooner or later to get II If we can. We give our
Moline friends iair warning and plain state
ment"
The above find in the ARGUS, in reply to
| your equiyocating position upon this territorial
| question which now engages the attention of the
! people OF Moline and Rock Island This Journal
Is better advised as to the sentiment Of the peo-
pie of the latter city than the Union, and withal
more frank upon this subject 1t is the official
| organ Of Rock Island, and is therefore expected
to be better informed than an outsider. | kno,c
the ARGUS is right and the Union mistaken about
this matter.
But you are 50 hedged about with the Difficult
ties Of serving two masters that l presume you
cannot be made to sec your error.
M. 81 displays the temper Of a terma
giant who is bound to have the last word any.
how, whether it means anything or not, 10
this end he quotes from the ARGUS, though
whether the matter quoted was published
one year or one month ago he does not
state Union.
The paragraph was published one week
ago, and no one probably read it with more
disgust than the editor of the Union. His
attempts to advocate the conflicting interests
of both Rock Island and Moline at the same
breath are simply ridiculous, though in gen.
eral keeping with his established newspaper
policy, To deny that the people of Rock
Island would like to extend their city limits
in the direction of Moline, in any honora'
bic and legitimate manner, is downright du-
plcity. Why does he call the intervening
space "the disputed territory if no dispute
exists ? The truth is, IN. s. you drive @
very sharp quill, and having picked open
some of his little piccadlloes, you have made
yourself obnoxious, and your spicy miSsives
exceedingly unwelcomo. "Don't disturb

CoRRECrIoN.-We advise the second in
command over at the Union Office to rein up
the Hub of that institution, or it will be
run entirely into the ground.
The statement that c. b. Knox labored
over 2j days in looking after paupers,s and
charged the county 81 per day therefor, is
not correct. He labored small portion Of
the Is days, and held himself in readiness
to labor the balance Of the period provided
it didn't interfere with his regular business,
and didn't cause him too much trouble. He
expended $50, and charged the county $50
for his trouble. He has peremptorily denied
to us that he ever hunted up q pauper, or
that he ever said he did, although we would
not hesitate to 60 into ccurt and make oath
that he told US so at his FIRST statement. The
| case then stands thus. IF he never hunted
up any paupers, and yet charged the county
81 per day on the supposition thathe did hunt
them up, under what head does such q trans.
action come? If he did pass twenty-five
days IN hunting up paupers, and charged
the county 81 per day for doing it, where
did he get authority for laboring to add to
the number of our public dependents2 If C
B. Knox is to have .fce-thir!cenths of ell the
money expended for paupers in this town
ship, what a glorious berth he would have
had on the same terms in lS6s, when, &C
cording to the statement Of the Hub, ;
$1,000 were expended for pauper purposes
c. B. would have reached for the ueighbor
hood Of 5 $50, as a fair percentage, suG
, might have put his little bill at $4,000 t.
make round sum of it.
+, The Hub labors very much to make the
t PnhAc believe that Mr.. Knox has instituted
:, q wonderful change in public affairs at tn,
martyrdou of his peace of mind, his bust
3 ness, and his personal ease. This is n
bOsh. He has done little or nothing Ant

SHOOTING MATCH Some time ago we
stated that certain crack bird shooters of
Davenport we're extremely anxious to get up
match with any Rock Islanders who might
presume to think themselves able to compete
with oyer.riyerites in this genteel sporting
department. The item didn't bear very
pleasant appearance in the eyes Of many Of
our young Nimrods, and dissatisfaction lead
10 talk, and talk to business, We were over
the river, to-day, and Mr.. L, A. Tilebine,
who is somewhat ION the shoot informed
Us that active preparations are being made
for the proposed match. Two hundred
pigeons have been ordered, and are being
obtained as rapidly as possible. Six Daven-
potters will match themselves against any
six Rock islanders The grounds selected
for the shooting are near what is called
Hamburg, in the rear of West Davenport
A Zig time is anticipated, the press is invit
ed, all who desire may look on, and as soon
as explicit arrangements can be made, the
time will be announced.

expectations is our cordial wish.
