CoNFLIcTING.-A curious phase of the
ancient struggle between the States and
the General Government has developed
in Massachusetts. Fourteen Germans,
keeping restaurants, have been fined and
imprisoned for violating the anti-beer
law, and for selling fermented liquors.
These Germans held Federal license.
They now raise the question whether a
State Government can destroy or pro-
hibit business which has been Ii
censed and legalized by the Gen
eral Government. They claim that if it
is unlawful to sell beer in that State, it is
equally illegal for the Federal officials to
collect licenses for doing that act, and the
money heretofore collected should be re-
turned. The same question is likely to
arise respecting whisky and tobacco.-

We print the new Railroad law as passed
by the Legislature The point in interest
and upon which there has been most con-
troversy is the eighth section This section
directs the Railroad Commissioners to
make out for each Of the railroad eompa-
MES doing business in this State schedule
of maximum rates Of charges for the trans
p)rtatlOn of passengers and freight and
cars on each of such railroads, and
such schedule, in all suits brought against
any such railroad corporation upon q
charge of exaeting unreasonable rates.
shall be deemed and taken as prina facie
evidence that the rates named therein are
reasonable. But in the controversy be
tween the two houses of the Legislature
there was added to this provisio that the
schedules thus prepared shall not be such
PriRa facie evidence until the 18th day of
January, 1874. The object of this was to
furnish an excuse for another session of
the Legislature next winter At that SEES
sion, the Legislature will begin with
the whole matter afresh, and under
take TO frame a schedule of rates of
its own. In the meantime, the previous
act of the Legislature stands repealed,
and the eighth section of the new one Is
suspended indefinitely. The bill practical
", therefore, abandons the theory that the
Legislature, directly or indirectly, can pre-
scribe rates for transportation.
That part Of the law which is operative
provides the machinery for the redress of
all grievances, whether in unjust exactions
of rates or Of determinations. 1t provides
remedies and penalties suitable for the
wrongs and fairly and squarely follows the
direction given in the opinion of the
Supreme Court, leaving the railroads no
alternative but to comply with the universal
demand, or satisfy a court and jury that
no wrong has been done or attempted -

KnippIe, the Wife Beaten and
Bawdy House Keeper
Pleads Guilty.
JUDGE GUYER GIVES HIM 100
DAYS IN JAIL AND FINES
him 1880.
A PROSPECT THAT DRURY TOWNSHIP
WILL BE RELIEVED OF THE
DIsGRACEFUL DENs.

Orlando K. Knipple, the Drury bawdy
house brute, noticed in Saturday evening S
ARGUS, was brought before Judge Guyer
this Monday morning, on information of
States Attorney Parmenter, and plead
guilty to keeping lewd house and to sell
ing liquor without license He was fined
$75 on the first charge, and to stand COM
mitted to Jail until fine and costs are paid
On the second charge he was fined 800,
and ordered to be imprisoned in the coun-
ty Jail 100 days and it was further order
ed that, at the expiration of the 100 days
Imprisonment he still stand committed un-
til all fines and costs shall be paid.
States Attorney Parmenter is deter
mined to break up those Drury dens of in
fanny, and the law will now enable him to
do it, as, on information, fled by him, he
can bring their keepers up every month.
knipple has now got 100 days in prison
anyhow, and at the end of that time he
mast pay $l75 and costs or stay in prison
until he can raise the amount. As he did
not desist from keeping lewd house or
from selling liquor after he was complain
ed OF, he can be taken again, when his
term expires, for what occurred between the
first complaint and the first arrest.
The other bawdy-house keepers and law
breakers will have to git up and git, or
they Il find Parmenter after them. The
people of that end of the county have
suffered, in many ways, from these sink
holes of corruption Innocent girls have
been decoyed into these places and ruined
respectable young men, farmers boys, have
been drawn in there and disgraced; de-
cent farmers have been enticed to these
places and contracted bad habits, and
brought unhappiness upon their families
at home, by their practice of visiting such
places. Let the people sustain the States
Attorney, now, and there is hope that an
end will be put to these places, and the
decent portion of our citizens in that end
Of our county be relieved of the obi
um which follows every community where
such dens are permitted to exist.

Police Items,


City Marshal Kimball found man sell
ing jewelry in the street cars, Saturday,
and, learning that he had no license, in
vited him TO pay Magistrate Chopper a
visit. He gave his name as Henry GOode,
and named various places where he occa-
sionally resided The Magistrate fined
him $40 and costs, and he left his stock in
trade as security for the debt, saying he
would redeem it, He seemed to think il
he paid license in Chicago it ought to
answer anywhere in the State. Magistrate
Chopper differed with him on this legal
question.
An insane person, named Frank Brady,
from Mercer Co., was placed in jail Satur.
day, by Policeman Rinehart, and City
Marshal Kimball Immediately notified
Supervisor Krell, who has sent the man
TO his home. Mr.. Kimball learns that the
city has, heretofore, been paying bills for
such people who are really and properly
county charge, and he has given orders to
the police, in every such case, in future, to
notify the Supervisor. The police are
willing to aid the county in restraining OF
arresting people in such cases, but wher
they are properly a county charge the
Marshal will see to it that the people Of
this city are not compelled to foot bills, any
longer, which belong properly to the coun-
ty. Mr.. Kimball's experience in the
Board of Supervisors enables him to dis
criminate in such matters with correctness.

The Mccoy Goodrich Scandal.

The Davenport Democrat publishes our
article in relation to the above case and
says:
To the above we would add that the late
Mrs. Goodrich has already three husbands
living, and not divorced, The last mar
riage with Mr.. Goodrich was accomplished
by her, through false representations and
fascinating influences rather than from any
question Of love. She said that she was
the widow of an English captain, she her
self being English, and that she was the
possessor of much wealth. The wealth
turned out to be myth, and the English
captain is probably still living. While in
Davenport he has lived in West Daven-
port, TO the denizens Of which place she
has been known by reputation and actions,
and the said reputation was not of a partic-
ularly favorable nature. The couple had a
child which has been taken possession of
by Mr. Goodrich.
The settled conviction in the minds Of all
who know anything of the woman is that
she is bold adventures. A divorce has
been applied for by Mr.. Goodrich, and
there is abundant proof to secure that some
times very convenient article.
