HEALTH INsPEcroRs-By authority
given the Health officer under an ordin'
ance recently passed, DR.. Jepson has ap'
pointed the, following Health Inspectors
who are empowered to, make Q thorough
examinations al ;pFiYbte property id
their respective wards, and to order the
abatement Of all nuisances found existing
thereon. The orders Of these inspectors
are TO be laS impleiIly and promptly
obeyGd as Il emanSfhL stom the Health
officer himself. Appointments for the
First and Second wards have not yet been
made but will be in day or two.
The following have been made: Third
Ward, James R. Aeker; Fourth, Harvey
Hall; Filth, Joseph Long; Sixth, John Q.
Bellville; Seventh, William Richardson;
Eighth, Jacob HoneckeF!S ~.
1t is hoped that our citizens will cheer.
fully aid these officers in the discharge Of
their duty, by pointing out any places
that need cleansing which may have es-
capped their notice in passing through their
Wards. 1t Is high time the city was put
in st.class sanitary condition, as the
cholera is slowly but surely making its
way in this direction. Let every citizen
consider himself q committee Of one to
clean and disiniect every foul spot.

POLICE COURT.-There was partial re-
vival of business in the police court, yes
terdsy morning, William Taylor was ar
raigRed Tor creating tumult and disorder
which in this instance meant, abusing his
family most outrageously. His wife was
in court with a IeaEinlly confused eye,
the result OF blow inflicted by her hus-
band with his fist. We think 1t was well
for him that she did not appear until after
the case had been disposed Of, else His
Honor would have fined him $50 and
costs, instead Of the paltry sum oil s. and
costs, which was entered up against him.
The other case tried was that OF vii.
liam Gems, who could not speak word
OF English, but understood drinking TO
excess. and then exposed himself on the
street. lie was fined three dollars and
costs. ..l,s..-
The case OF Henry Neuhardt charged
with selling liquor on Sunday was con.
hnued until next Saturday. That Of
Charles HSwley, tor destroying the goods
of q Mrs. Anthony, was likewise Contin.
ued. 1t will be heard next Friday, how

The municipal election takes place in
Moline on Tuesday The Reriec says:
THE candidates for the office of Mayor
now prominently mentioned are two--th,
present incumbent d. L. Wheelock, and
John Deere. Both are Republicans tried
and true and both are men esteemed by
the community. Neither tidrors cOHsiIida-
ton gith Rock IsidHd.
Mr.. Deere must have changed his mind,
then, or else the Re0ieU misrepresents
him. We happen to know that he ,oas h
strong advocate of consolidation, and We
have no evidence that he is not of the
same opinion now. As far as that ques-
ton is concerned Rock Island would great
ly prefer the election of Deere, for il
would be regarded here as evidence that
Moline was considering the subject in a
more favorable light.
