Mr.. Buford, who was present, Of course 'by
chance" and who, Of course, had no expectation
Of so distinguished an honor was called on for
speech.-Rm Onion.
No,-he was present on purpose, just be-
cause the democrats wanted him there.
But how was it with Murdoch, at the
Condor. Hayerstick convention? Was he
present by chance? And how about the
regularity of his nomination? Was he reg
ularly nominated? And is his nomination
binding on the republican party? Look at
the facts
In the republican convention, notwith-
standing the packing done in the wards by
the brick yard ring, there was present a
good many republicans who did not want
and will not submit to another year of the
Murdoch, Kit Atkinson. Condor ring. The
convention voted to proceed to an informal
ballot for candidate for mayor. Te!lers
were appointed and the ballots cast. When
the telers were counting the votes, man
looked oy er their shoulders and, seeing that
Murdoch had majority, called Quilts
all right; Murdoch is ahead and | move he
be unanimously nominated" One of the
tellers called him to order, and suggested
that he had better wait for q report of the
ballot. When the report Yves made, Mr.. A.
G. Dart moved that the convention then pro.
coed to a formal ballot for candidate for
mayor, but Guyer, who was in the chair, did
not put the motion to the convention. After
some little talk, Mr.. VIM. +. CrepPer made
the same motion, and it was 8econded.-
Guyer refused to put it to vote, but went on
to put motion that Murdoch be nominated
by Exclamation" mot unanimously and
when the noes we're called there was distinct
and emphatic evidence that Murdoch could
not be the unanimous nominee, or get the
support Of all the republicans Of Rock Island.
The opponents of Murdoch were choked
down aud ignored by Guyer' but they will
find a chance for redress at the ballot box
Murdoch was declared the nominee and
his cIacquers were there to applaud Dep
uty Sheriff Payne then said he noticed
that Mr.. Murdoch was present a mere acct
dent of course, and Payne was entitled to
credit for the discovery and he moved that
he be called on for a speech. AT this Muir
dock rushed forward, without waiting for The
motion to be put, and jeEkei lot of papeI
out of his coat tail pocket and commenced
to read bis piece-purposly prepared by ac
cident, of course, as be merely happened t.
be present BY chance, and wasn't prepared
for the unexpected honor.
Big thing-wasn't it? And all "b,

pools of his blood, and the neighbors went
and washed it away? VIII it explain why
one ofMurdock pet policemen lost his boots,
one night, when asleep on duty And will
it explain why Murdoch, after recovering the
boots and knowing the evidence of his
unfaithtulness, still keeps him as tax on
the city treasury? VIII it explain why the
police office has been prostituted by com.
promising cases Of larceny by taking money
for letting thieves escape? viii it explain
about the poor woman Ia traveller, last
summer, who arrived on night train who
placed herself in charge of @ policeman at
the depot to be conducted to a hotel or
boarding house, and was conducted to an
empty omnibus in a shed on an alley and
dishonorable proposals made to her? All
these things were reported to Murdoch at
the time, and still he kept the men in office,
and apologized for them, in his speech IN
the court house.

3. He has made less public improve.
ment and furnished less work for laborers.
!, He has paid less of the public debt
;. He has kept Marshal and two Police.
men in Office who have prosecuted and rob.

from town and done more to injure the
character and business of the place than all
other causes combined.

MURDocK's CITY PRINTER recently came
out with a strong editorial in favor Of in
creasing the salaries of the city officers, and
excusing Mclaughlin, Highly Il Co, for COB.
bling all the fees they can get and letting
the city get nothing, And there are several
aldermen who remember that Aid. Hawes
tried to get the mayors salary increased to
81 900 year. So if Murdoch & Co. are
kept il power another year, the people may
expect still further large additions to their
taxes to support the crew. The organ of
Murdoch says:
"7he Regular SALARY paid our city officers
is too small to afford them a liUing. AHd
pe Jeliere il trouid be better, in erery aspect
Of the case, ifhe city council, By an 0rdi.
nance, 'Cotld change the present system"
All who want the present salaries increAs.
ed and still farther addition made to their
taxes should vote to keep Murdoch & Co. in
office.
