FINANCIAL STANDING OF THE ROCK

For elk months pas: the ARGUS has been
the only paper published in this city which
has met its telegrsphic bills from the Asso.
cisted Press. The other paper has been
unable to keep up in this respect. Despair.
ing of ever getting considerable amount
Of arresrages from it, the Associated Press
made an attempt to force tho ARGUS to
help pan the debts Of the Union. We have
publicly exposed this outrage, and having
the documents fled away to prove our as
sertions, if necessary, that sheet has not the
temerity to deny them. We have refused
to submit to any such unheard Of proceed,
| ing, and cannot be dragooned into it. This
comparison Of the financial condition Of the
two papers should not be lost upon the pub
lie. The ARGUS will always furnish the
reyy latest Chicago, St. Louis, and New
York markets. the very latest miscellaneous
news, and as heretofore, will remain the
leading paper of the city and county in re.

THE COURT HOUSE RING AND THE
MANNED soLDIERs.

Our Port Byron correspondent, who was
delegate to the recent Republican Con
vention, wishes to know why the Court
House Ring doesn't use its influence to
place manned and crippled soldiers IN the
post offices of theSounty. When the cop
perhead writer of thisparagrsph was starving
in Andersonvile, Col. streight, who escaped
FROM that horrible place, called on secreta
ry Stanton aud plead with him to take some
steps to secure the exchange or liberation OF
the thirty thousand prisoners OF war who
we're wasting away there, from famine and
disease, the memorable reply Of that humane
and refined worthy was--"I'll be id #
I'm going to exchange sound men for skel.
etons' The Court House Ring stands on
the same platform. 1t wants one or two
obsequious tools in every township in the
county to help on its nefarious schemes, but
it wants able bodied mon who can make
themselves useful. at is not going TO ex
change sound men for Skeletons At Port
Byron it has an abe.bodied tool, who can
obey its mandates without any pangs o
conscience, and it don't propose to throw
him overheard to take up with a crippled
soldier who might have too much honor tc
carry out all its requirements, and whose
manned limbs would render him poorly
qualified for his political duties. That.
what's the matter, exactly.

PoRT BYRON, Sept. 10, 1869
EDITORS ARGUS Yesterday wasa proud
day for the old Cour! House bsrnacles
they were out in full force, and had 1t all
their own way in the Convention
Moline, Rock Island, and Black Hawk
were represented in the Convention by del
egates who have held office from the earliest
settlement Of the county, aud have grown
gray in the service Of the Court House
Ring. At first we unsophisticsted soldiers
were lost in wonder that these men who had
held office all their lives should have such
sn outgushing gratitude for the soldiers
that they should want to hel the soldiers
to every place Of honor, trust, and respon'
sibity within their power. Capt. d. o..
Reid got the nomination for Treasurer over
Mr.. Ii. L. Thomas, worthy officer, but
mark the result when a delegate to the
Constitutional Convention was to be chosen.
These very men who Dragged so much
about elevatng soldiers to places Of honor
and profit, would not support L. II. John.
ston, an officer from Port Byron who serv.
ed with distinction in the war Of the Re.
bellion, but nominated DR.. Truesdale, a
physician Of Rock Island, who was post
master during the war.
"0b, consistency, thou art Jewel !"
During the war DR.. Truesdsle was at
home, enjoying all the Injuries Of life, and
a good fat salary. Capt. L. II. Johnston
was at the front, brsvely fighting the enemies
OF our country. Ifthese men want 10 do
something handsome for the brave defend
ers whom they applaud 30 much, why do
they not give them the post otlices2 / be-
lieve there is only one post master in the
county who was manned in the service Of his
country. In the town Of Port Byron there
are four or five manned and crippled sol
ders who are as well qualified to hold the
office of Post Master, and as competent to
serve the public as the present incum bent.
Why not give the Office to some Of them
