The Union charges that copies OF the
Hawley resolution introduced in the Rock
Island County Republican Convention
were sent out to the Republican papers in
the other counties of this district for pub
~lication this week, in advance Of the action
on that resolution by the convention, and
to prove its charge it calls attention to the
fact that the resolution appeared in the
Cambridge Chronicle of this week, which
is published on Thursday, the day after
the convention was held. The Union
says:
Between the holding ofthe Rock Island County
Convention on Wednesday afternoon and the lssn"
of the chronicle no mail had been sent from Rd x
Island to cambridge. The chronicle therefore
could have no report of the proceedings Of the con
ycntion unless II was photographed. NO d'spatchc
were sent,
This shows how tricky the Union can
be. 1t would have the public understand
that there was no public conveyance to
Cambridge between tho holding of the con-
v%ention in this county and the publication
of the Chronicle. This is not true. A
full, correct and fair statement OF the
proceedings of that convention were pub
lished in THE ARGUS on the afternoon OF
the convention, and the papers were sold
on the streets very soon after the conven-
ton adjourned. An express train OF cars
over the Peoria road, leaves this city at
0:2O A. NJ. arriving at Cambridge an 1;46
A. NJ. The return traiu(mail train, leaves
for Rock Island at 1907 A. NJ. giving
the Chronicle two hours and twenty one
minutes to set the resolution and get the
paper into the return mail. The resolu-
ton appears in the Chronicle at the head
of an advertising column, showing that
the forms had been made up and held for
news from the Rock Island convention, by
the morning express. This is the more
evident from the fact that the Chronicle
at the head of the resolution, says
We have barely time and space 10 mention a FIN
gle point In the history OF the Rock Island conven-
lion, held yesterday, and Il is a point of vital i'm
uurtance for the people of the other counties to
consider. The following resolution was offered by
the friends of Mr.. Hawlcy. and promptly tdid on
the tabie Of ne Lynde can eeati0A.
We have no time and no spice for comment.
IL is certain that the Chronicle could
have got the resolution as we state, and
from the editors comments it is plain
enough that he did get it from Tue AR
avs. II the Chronicle had been generous
enough to have taken one line more and
Acknowledged the enterprise of THE AR
Gus in publishing the proceedings in al
vance Of any other paper, and that it OBJ
tainel the resolution from THE ARGUS (if
it did so obtain it,, it would have saved
itself and Nlr. Hawley's friends the annoy
ance of making explanations.

Resolutions to Fit the Candidates.

The Republican county convention, in
this county, has gone back on the farmers
and the soldiers. Last year they passed
strong resolutions in favor of cheap trans
portation, opposed to monopolies, etc., etc.
and nominated two real farmers for Office.
This year they utterly and entirely ignored
the farmers passed a thin resolution about
nominating business men, in order to tit
Lynde, Owens, Knox and Browning, and
then what did they do?
They repudiated Hawley for Congress, a
soldier. and preferred Lynde, a man who,
by political favoriteism, made his fortune
in a monopoly ring controlling the sutlel
business at the Rock Island rebel prison
and in the monopoly of banks and rail
roads.
They ~repudiated Beal, for Sheriff, a rea
soldier, and a real farmer, and preferred
Owens, a stay at -home Spectator.
They nominated Knox, a chronic anc
professional office holder, for Coroner.
They nominated Browning, a lawyer, fol-
the Legislature.
Not a farmer or a soldier on their ticket
or a man whose interests are with the
farming and laboring classes in our county,
They repudiated every farmer and every
soldier who was a candidate. They nom
mated ~monopolists and spectators for ev.
cry office. Is such a party a party OF the
people? Answer at the ballot box in No
