Awkward Position ofthe Lynde
Party.
They Repudiate the Canal.
THEY VOTE DOWN COMPLIMENTS TO
LYNDE.
They Declare that Unless They can Have
Lynde They Want Our County to
Lose the Congressman.

The Lynde party, in county convention,
&C commended the canal and then stamped
under foot a strong resolution in favor Of
the canal.
The Lynde party commended Judge
Lynde for his good qualities, and then re-
pudiated a resolution commencing him in
better terms.
The Lynde party demand that every
fIawley man shall vote for Lynde, but de-
clare that if Hawley is nominated they will
not vote for him.
The Lynde party scorufully repudiated
a resolution calling on the delegates to use
every means and possible influence to Sc
cure Lynde's nomination, and if they
could not secure il to then ask for Haw-
ley's nomination. They thus placed
themselves in the awkward position of de-
claring that if they could not get Lynde
they didn't want anybody in the county.
The Lynde folks need better leaders
than Guyer aud Bracket. If they had
quietly referred the troublesome resolution
to their committee on resolutions and that
committee had failed to agree on a report
before adjournment, they would have
shown some skin. But the Lynde party
is now placed in the worst possible predic-
ament-opposed to Lynde, opposed to-the
canal, aud opposed to having thecongreSs-
man in this county.

Recent Storms.

kilograms have informed our readers of
the terrible hard storms and tornadoes of
Sunday night and Wednesday morning, in
Northern Iowa and Illinois. The Wednes-
day morning storm did considerable dam
age in LIE Claire and vicinity. The Catho-
lie church at LIE Claire was unroofed, chin
neys we're leveled, fences blown down, and
trees laid low. Near the town a log raft,
in charge of the steamer Hartford, was
tied for the night. The wind moved the
steamer and raft from their fastenings, and
sent them a1oat southwark. The steamer
was cut loose from the logs, and as o as
possible she was steamed ashore. The logs,
all separated by the ~roughness of the rap
ids, came rolling and shooting down the
current. For hours after daylight the riv-
er for miles above this city seemed full of
them. The Hartford made her appear,
ance, aud steamed down to get ahead Of
the logs, many of which we're miles below
this city. The crew were hard at work all
day above Fairpor; arresting the logs, and
taking them to a boom formed a the shore
tor reconstruction.
Our people have reasons to congratulate
themselves upon their exemption, thus far,
from the direful effects of these dreadful
storms. |

Bitter Persecution by the Lynde Party


There were several aspirants for the Re
publican nomination for sheriff, the prin-
cipal ones being Col. Beal, and Aleck
Owens. Had these candidates have gone
to Hawley and Lynde aud demanded that
they should take sides in the contest for
sheriff they would have been told that such
a course would not be right, that they
ought not to be thus embarrassed. Act
ing on this principle we take a Yankees
privilege to guess that Col Beal had the ad-
vice of both Hawley and Lynde to look at
ter his wv interests and remain neu-
trial as TO their contest. Col. Beal acted
on that principle. Mr.. Owens rode over
the county electioneering for Lynde and
against liawley. Any one can see the
effect IN a convention of all Lynde men
but three. Col. Beal, though a soldier.
and thoroughly acquainted with the du-
ties of the office, and entirely competent,
was thrown overheard for a stay-a at home
speculator, because that stay-at- home
Spectator was an active Lynde partisan,
and did all he could to defeat Hawley.
The Lynde men have proclaimed their
eternal hostility to all IIawley men.

Travellers Testimony.

Thousands of Travellers by land and Sea have
vouched for the efficacy Of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters as a preventive of the physical disturbances
which ordinarialy arise from change Of climate and
changes of diet, water, &C., incident to a wander
ing life. Upon systems toned, invigorated and reg
ulated by this genial vegetable antidote the exter
nal causes Of debility and disease seem to produce
little or no effect. Forearmed with Hostetter's Bit
tiers, the voyager may bid defiance to sea-sickness
and encounter ths chilling fogs OF the British Isles.
the coast winds Of the Antilles, the ley temperature
Of northern Alaska, or the burning heat of the
tropics, with equal lmpunity. The effect of this
admirable medicated stimulant is greatly to in
crease the vital energy OF the system, thereby en-
abling it to resist and rcpel the exciting causes Of
disease.

VINEGAR BIrTERs.-The great merit of
VINEGAR BlTTERs has made them the
leading medicine of the day, and respecta-
BILE druggists everywhere write: "7hey
are the best and most popular preparation
in the m,arket." They have stood the test of
pnblic opinion and won confidence. They
sell rapidly because they cure. If you are
sick you want reliable medicine. VINE
GAR BIrTERs commend themselves to the
aiing and afflicted, as they are deficient
in one thing alone, viz: the stimulant that
unduly excites the brain, and creates a
morbid thirst for spirits! There is no
case of Indigestion, Biliousness, Nervous
Disease, or Physical Debility, in which
they will not effect a cure. lnvalids who
are wasting away from a want of proper
action in the liver, stomach and bowels,
will find them a constitutional specific, and
a fountain of vitality and vigor as refresh
ing and exhilarating as a cool, gushing
spring of water to the parched and faint
ing traveller in the desert.

Rock Island County Delegates Already Chosen.

Rock Island County Delegates ALREADY Chosen.
PRINCETON, ILL.,, Aug. II, 1875.
To the Editors OF The Rock Island Argus:
Your issue of the Sth is just at hand. /
infer from your article headed Congress
sional Convention that you were not in
formed of the action taken by the dele
gates from this District at the State Con-
v~entiOn, on the 10th of June last. BY
them | was requested, as Vice President
of the State Farmers Association, to call
the Congressional Convention for the Sixth
District, at Princeton, on Thursday, Sept.
24th.
My own opinion was hat it should have
been called much earlier, but, of course l
shall conform to the request of the dele
gates and call the convention as directed,
although | wish some arrangement could
be made whereby it could be held earlier.
Unless otherwise directed | will issue
the call on or before Sept. list.
Please let me know if this course will be
satisfactory to the people in your part OF
the district. Yours truly,
l.. II. ELLIOTT.
We think an earlier day should be named,
but those who have the matter in charge
must act as they think best. Perhaps the
9th of September will do. Of course,
whoever is to be the candidate ought to
have time to canvass the whole district
at least to hold two or three meetings in
each county, at prominent and easily ac-
cessible points, so as 10 give the people a
chance to see and know the man. From
the oath of Sept. to election day is fire and
q half ueehs. Perhaps that will do, if an
active and energetic canvass shall be com
menced from that day and kept red hot
till election day. 1t would be of no use to
make a halfway canvass, Whoever runs
should give every day Of his time to the
business of canvassing the district from
the day of his nomination to election day.
At the Independent Reform County Con-
v~ention held in Negus's Hall, in this city,
June Sd, to appoint delegates to the 10th
of June State Convention, delegates were
appointed to a Congressional Convention
when called, as follows:
VIM. D. Clark, of Hampton.

J. H. Campbell, Edgington.
