Mr.. EDIroR.-I wish our city clerk would
pnbIish the items for the livery bills the city
pavs for Murdoch, Mclaughlin & Co., and
let the public see the details. More livery bills
have been contracted by Murdoch & Co.
and paid by the radical city council, than
under all former administrations, l think.
The increase is quite unsccountable. For.
merly, when the Camden road was being i'm,
proved, or the bridges rebuilt, it would not
be surprising that an occasional team was
used by the committee having the matter IN
charge. But the people cannot see what
livery teams are wanted for now, unless 1t IS
to haul home drunken marshal or visit the
mayors brick yard, or give the official printer
a ride around town. Let Us have the bills
published, giving dates, and who had the
teams, and what for.

and ran up Orleans street to Washington
down Washington to Illinois, and around

horses, q splendid sorrol, Was found to have
broken one fore leg near the hoof lie was
taken charge OF by ". W. LaugdelI, farrier

covers. Mr.. Langdell is confident he can

A COOP HIT.--The Peoria Transcript,
commenting on the regulators, and what it
calls "The Railroad Tempest in Davenport
says:
at will be seen that the Davenport peo-
pie are possessed with great fertility of in.
vention. If they wait for their eastern con-
nections until the p, T. and W. railway is
leased to the Pennsylvania Central, they
will not get them during the present century.
The anxiety of the Pennsylvania road to
reach Rock Island exists more in magma.
ton than it does in reality. The story
about the Bloomfield route is pure invention.
The Pennsylvania Central has larger fish
than Rock Island and Davenport to fry
These cities are mere side issues to that
company. The Pennsylvania Central will
not build to them, They must build to the
Pennsylvania Central. 1t is strange such
nonsense ia entertained by parties claiming
to be business men in Davenport

ing out the Kate Kesrny to-day, The Nor.
thern line is in full preparation for any
amount of campaigning. The White Collar
folks are silent, but their silence is not to be
mistaken for an abandonment of the held,or
Il heistancy to pitch in vigorously right and
left. On the contrary their wharf boat will
be put in its place at the wharf this morning.
Every Illinois boat running brings down II
full cargo, showing there is an immense
amount of freight along that stream ready
for shipment to Geo. Balm & Co., and other
St. Louis firms, fact upon which we have
reason to congratulate the Peoria Packet
Company, if, in the meantime, there should
be no Eruption of White Collars into Sucker
