The change in the ferry boat landing,
in Rock Island ordered by the city au-
thorities, is hardly relished by the mana
gers of that craft, yet they will, of course,
comply with the ordinance The spot
designated for their dock, at the foot of
Eagle Street, does not permit an easy
landing during the season of low water, a
scarcity Of water at that point rendering it
difficult at times to get the boat within
stepping distance of their dock Besides
this obstacle to the comfort of their custo-
mers, one or more locomotives or trains of
| cars may usually bo found vu the Eagle
street crossing, which will prove an agra
walton calculated to try the patience Of
those who have to stand around on the
levee and wait for chance to get into
town These are drawbacks which the
carefully schooled christian might endure,
but the average humanity can hardly be
expected to silently accept the dispense

There has been no change of the ferry
landing 1t was fixed at Eagle street in
1869, and has never had legal existence

The ferry company wanted it at Eagle
street in the first place,-and afterwards
set up the claim that it and not the council
had the right to choose its own landing
place, Judge Peasants decided that the
council and not the ferry company was the
Judge of what the public good required,
and that the location at Eagle street was
the legal landing place, and also gave
judgement against the company FOR $3.50
costs of the suit Whether the ferry COM
pany relish the landing place or not is a
matter of no sort of consequence, The
cOun Gil, as the representative of the peo
pie, has the entire control of that matter
As to locomotives being in the way, it
is true that trains of cars are permitted
to pass along the leyee-a right given by
the city, and it is quite likely that IN ordel

MEDICAL ADvERTIsTNG.-The medical
profession are out spoken in their denun-
citation of the system Of medical advertis-
ing, and declare that any medicine that is
advertised is fraud. How thoroughly in
consistent and unfair is such an argument.
The men who are SO loud in their crit.
cisms, are those who adUertise themselves
as medical sarans by ostentatious display
splendid residences with massive door
plates; fast horses and costly carriages.
Dr. j. Walker, of California an old prac-
titioner. respected alike for his skill and
conscientious independence. dares to differ;
and having discovered in his VINEGAR
BuTERs purely herbalistic medicine, free
from all spirituous poisons-a wonderful
specific for numerous disorders. advertises
the same for the relief of his fellow man,
and is borne out in his declarations of its
many virtues by thousands of invalids, who
are being cured of diseases by its use.

PERSONNEL OF THE CIRCUs.-Claude
Williams, the irrepressible;of Queens cir
Gus, is in the city interviewing the press.
He is several combined in one, passably
good looking, often taken for a crusader,
and he says Queens circus is the sensation
of the age. With him is one Charlie Riv-
ers, special ambassador of Montgomery
Queen, who cnrries an elegant mOustache
and fine form and is called good fellow,
has been in the business only - years and
has the same opinion of the circus that Mr..
Williams has. They will not speak at
the temperance meeting this evening
There is another, not with the circus,
but representing the Diamond Tooth Paste,
who is not noted for his small feet, but can
handle the banjo--In fact is prince of per-
formers on that instrument. He favored
a select audience this forenoon with,

Our Grand Jury After the whisky Vendors

our drano jury AFTER the whisky Nenders.
The grand jury for this county, as we
learn by witnesses who have been before
that body are making sharp enquiries for
saloon keepers who sell without license, and
who sell or give away on Sunday, or who
sell or give away to minors and also for
druggists who sell or give away as bev-
erage, The foreman, they say, has little
book, furnished him by the temperance
people, in which is the name of every sa-
loon keeper, every druggist, and the per-
sons who most do frequent those places, with
questions written down to be put to each
witness One point they make on saloon
keepers is that their licenses expired on
the eth of April, and that from that date
until taking out their new licenses they are
liable under the law to be fined on every
drink sold This is kind of snap-iudg-
ment that juries would not be likely to sus-
tain, for the reason that saloon keepers
have always been given the month of April
to file their bonds, and it would be unfair
W uuO ~ WIN uD Intention OF VlO-
lating any law, and no desire to do SO.
Technically, they may be liable-but
not in any other sense. As to minors, it
is sometimes rather difficult for a saloon
keeper to kuow-but where saloon keepers
persist in selling to boys and take no meas.
ures to prevent their bar keepers from sell
ing to such, they ought to be fined.
AS to Sunday, we know of no State Law
that viii reach a saloon keeper any more
than livery stable keeper or milk deal
er. 1t is just as much the province of the
grand jury to inquire who has kept his liv
cry stable open for business on Sunday, OF
who has sold milk on that day, as who ha:
sold liquor on that day. Under the cit,
ordinance they are liable if they sell intox
icating drink on that day, but it is not the
province of the grand jury to look afte,
: violations of our city laws
