Grant $ office holders, and ach people
as they can influence, are dong all they
can to break up the farmers party and
keep things in the same old corruption rut
Speaking Of the farmers meeting on the
Fourth, to hear Ex-Gov. Pllmer. the
Springfield Register says;
This gathering of the peoplelemonstrat-
ed that the drill sergeants oftne Republi-
can party, acting under the directions from
those higher in authority in that organiza-
ton have ordered Repul licans to stay away
from all such gatherings, and the orders
were too generally and implicitly obeyed
1t demonstrated that the Republican party
and its active members are opposed to the
people IN this movement for reform that
they are in favor of all the protective mo-
nopolles, from high protective tariff
down to the most insignificant licensed
robbery that the politicians generally
summed investigation by the people of the
present reign of corruption and villainy
and propose TO keep them away from
meetings and all sources of information.

The"Moline Savings Bank purchased the
entire amount of bonds offered by the
Board Of Education at their rooms in Mo
line, on Tuesday of last week. The high
est bid was that of Charles W. Lobdell,
Esq, cashier of the Savings Bank, which
was at q per cent. premium for the $lS,-
500 on sale. The offers run from one per
cent to two and one quarter per cent, the
premium at which the bonds were sold.
This bank is operating under a charter
procured from the Legislature of Illinois
some years since, and is the only institu-
ton of the kind in the county.
These bonds are the very highest order
OF securities that can be procured in these
parts, and their purchase by this bank is
an evidence of the desire on the part of its
officers that the funds of their depositors
shall be safe when entrusted in this institu-
ton. s. W. Wheelock, Esq, is its presi-
dent, and it is controlled by a Board of
Trustees, made up of Moline's best men.
This Savings Bank is regarded as a safe and
desirable place of deposit for persons who
have money to place in such an institution.

RADICAL BLARNEY

\ few Radical newspapers, smarting un
der the detection of the German Ameri
cans from their party because of its cor
ruptiOns and high tariff expressions, have
suddenly taken to flattering the Irish il
order to make up their loss. For years
and years this class of papers has abused
and traduced the Irish-but all at once
they have discovered that the Irish have
temperance societies Here is an extract
from the Toledo Ohio, Blade, Republi-
can paper
A few year, ago our Irish adopted citizens were
,oohet' upon as dangerous eementIn society and
pie. II has all changed now particnJpriv in onr
Western cities, where the Irish population have h..

came a. people, lntemperate. In our own couH-
try. with manhood restored, they fact becom.
ing our best citizens and truest supporters OF good
government.
And the Layfayette, Ind, Courier, an
other Republican paper, puts in its oar as
follows:
one OF the good signs Of the times is the increas
ed interest manifested by Irish fellow citizens
in the cause of temperance 1t is notable fact
that there is marked diminutian of fntemperanCc
among the labortng lri-h people, and that they
must add to their proyerba industry the virtues Of
temperance and economy il they would increase
their worldly prosperity. During the recent tenn
perance excitement in this State, the Catholic
priests and the Irish members of that church took
an active and influential part the side of s0briety
And the little Rock Island Union, after
abusing nearly every Irish-American in
Rock Island, abiding to the bold stand
taken for temperance by the Irish in Chi
cago, says;
But this feeling among the Irish for temperance

The Irish Americans take all this sort of
'blarney' for just exactly what it is worth.
Before the editors who wrote these puffs

Mathews society had membership of
thousands upon thousands who were doing
