.HAWLEY WILLING TO BETRAY d
INTERESTS OF ROCK ISLAND.
Tho Charge made direct.

TIL. Jn;o, continues to dodge and paddle
.round the damaging fact that Hawley was
v,Ilinp to betrsy the interests of the people
of this city, Moline, Camden, and in fact
the whole county, by helping kill the free
The facts about the matter are simply as
follows:
Mr.. John B. Hswley did, at the ~solicita.
ton of the ferry company, and to help his
political friends, Spencer, Robinson l. Co E,
write a letter to A. c. Harding, then our
congressman, urging him to kill the
bridge appropriation on the ground that
the bridge would injure tho terry franchise
of Robinson Il Co., and that it was their duty
to protect and aid the interests of their poll.
tical friends that Robinson & Co, could
a good deal for the party and the party
must protect them, etc., etc. Mr.. Hawiey'
before mailing that letter, showed II TO
several OF the political friends of his party.
He then mailed it, and when he got HArd>
inp's reply be showed hat also. MI. Hard
inp's reply was + very proper one. He
olainly told Hawley that he would be glad
to help his friend Robinson, and his party
but that if he killed the bridge
sppropriation, as he could do, the effect
would be to defeat all appropriations for the
Arsenal, and that would ruin any man or
any party. He, therefore, regretting that
he could not sccede to Hawley, Robinson &
Co.'S request, must decline to interfere.
These are the facts, plainly ststed-and
when the leading republicans We named on
Saturday will deny, by affidavit, that they
saw Hawley's letter and Harding's answer,
shall be ready 10 nav the reward offered
or Eve times the amount named, to any
charitable object, to be named by the Young
Mems Christian Association. Can you get
the affidavit, Mr.. Union2 lfyou can't get
it, is it not pretty good evidence that Haw
ley was willing to betray the interests of our
people to help Robinson & Co?
II he would betray the interests of ell the
people of this county for his party friends,
Spencer, Robinson & Co., is it not equally
certain that he has betrayed and will again
betray if elected, the interests of the West
for his party friends East, the Protection
lists?

combined with powerful vegetable tonics of rare
qualities.
Among the mountains of Tennessee and the
piney woods of Mississippi, is found a certain
hard and finty root, which has been in secret use
by some old midwives for many y ears, possessing
magic powers in regulating and restoring all
females suffering with any affection of the womb.
This root we have obtained, gave il a fair test in
our practice and it is now one of the principle
ingredients in these Bitters. Other powerful
uterine and general tonic also enter into its
competition. We also add Leptsndra or Black
root, sufficient to act upon the liver and keep the
DO wells open.

WHY NOT ANSWER ?

Why does John B. Hawley refuse to an
swer the questions we nave asked him in
another column?
If his vote in congress have been right
aud honest, and for the benefit Of the people
of this district it will not hurt him to an
swer.
Why do the men whom we have accused
of seeing Hawley's letter opposing the bridge
and Of seeing Harding's reply refuse to
sign q statement that the charge is false ?
They are all republicans and live right
here in the city, and if the charge is false
they would not refuse to say SO at once.
Do honest voters like such lodging of
issues, such equivocation and such silence

house to house, from sidewalk to sidewalk,
from team to team, and from man to man,
begging, imploring, and even threatening
men if they refuse to vote for him?

HAwLEY's OPPOSITION TO GERMANS OF
QUINCY.

The Quincy Herald says among the
many reasons given BY the leading republi-
cans of Adams county why Hswley should
not be renominAted by the republican
convention, was the discomfort and dissssis-
faction it would cause among German
republicans. The argument had no weight
in the ofice-holder's convention, and Hsw-
ley was nominated. In other words, the
Germans had no voice in the nomination,
but if they wanted to they would be
permitted to vote for Hawley at the election.
1t was so in the distribution of Offices by
Hswley German votes aided largely in the
election, but when the spoils, that were the
result of that victory, were ready for
distribution, Hawley turned a cold shoulder
to the Germans. He did more ; he plotted
and intrigued to defeat the wishes of the
leading Germans of Quincy, and succeeded.
1t is said that many of them are now, not
secretly, but openly urging his defeat, and
materially aiding the effort to accomplish
