The Rock Island Convention and the Improve.

ment o. the Mississippi,
Fulton. ILL.,, March "a, 1874.
To the Editor Of the Chicago Evening Journal.
In your report of the proceedings of the
Rock Island Convention you say 'Sthe con-
vention passed resolutions looking to the
improvement of the Mississippi river and
to the opening Of the mouth of said river
by a ship canal" etc. No such resolution
was passed by the convention. Nor was
any such resolution reported by the COM
mittee. l offered resolution, looking to
the Improvement of the Mississippi river
from the head of navigation to the Gulf OF
Mexico. This was promptly laid upon the
table. Mr.. Potter, of Davenport, offered
similar resolution, which was declared lost
by the Chairman of the convention. SO the
convention put itself on record as opposed
to the improvement of this great national
highway by the General Government
Yours, w. G.. SNYDER,
Mr.. Snyder was one Of the assistant
secretaries os the convention, and if he
can't make fairer statement than the
above he never ought to be placed in such
a position again. The committee on reso-
lutions reported and the convention adopt
ed the following resolution
T. That while this convention especially indorse
and urge upon the attention of the U. s. Govern
ment the construction of the work herein named,
[the Rock Island Canal we would also urge upon.it
any and all interstate improvements that are feas-
ible and the completion OF which will not involve
an expenditure disproporionate to the prospective
benefits, among which we recognize as prominent
the importance Of the Mississippi and the Illinois
rivers and the control by the General Government
of the railroads engaged in the interstate traffic
Does Mr., Snyder call that putting it
self on record as opposed to the improve
ment of the great national highway p
ETC., ETC. If he does, he puts a strange con-
struction upon the use of words. The
convention especially recognized the i'm
portance of the Improvement of the Mis-
sissippi river, in its 4th resolution-anG
Mr.. Snyder says they put themselves or
record as opposed to its improvement
Put on your specs" Mr. Snyder
The convention regarded the resolution!
of Messrs. Snyder and Potter as mer,
surplussage and refused to lumber the
record by repeating what had already
been done.

LORENZO d. WHITING,
the Constitutional Convention, and
Catholic Schools,

In Davenport, the catholics are very
numerous, and pay large taxes for the sup
port Of the public schools to which their
consciences forbid them sending their chill
dren. They then establish schools Of their
own and they are asking that the amount
of money which they pay into the public
school fund be used to defray the expense
Of their own schools, and that they be re-
leased from the burden Of paying double
school tax. That question having been,
some time ago, agitated at Fort Madison,
Iowa, was settled by making the catholic
schools part of the public schools, as will
be seen by the following
To the Editor Of the Davenport Democrat
Yours relative to Ste. Marguerite schools
received this morning. | called on Mr..
Charles Caster, Sr., President of the
Board, who gave me the following infor-
nation in answer to my questions:
What you call the Catholic School is a
branch OF our public school.
The teachers are examined, hold their
certificates, and are paid the same salary
as in the other schools.
UCy receive no OJner MONIES.
use the books ordered by the Board.
Teach the same number of hours as
other schools.
They have their own Catholic servi-
ces before or after school hours. Protes.
tant scholars are not required to attend re-
ligious exercises.
The teachers are Romanists-one male
and three Sisters"
then called upon Mr. Hobbs, County
Superintendent of Public Schools; he
said.
1t is one of the public schools of the
city, the teachers are employed by the
Board, hold certificates from me, and in
all other matters conform to the common
school law.
The school fund is not dirided at all.
The Board Of Directors pay the teachers
their salaries, the same as in other schools,
and nothing more.
They use the same books and are under
the same control as the other schools.
'The building is used in consequence
Of lack Of public school buildings proper
and there are no rooms in the city obtain
able, which are suitable for school pur
poses.
The Lutheran school building is USED
and teachers paid in the same manner.
so, also, some private buildings ar,
rented for school purposes

GOSSIP orTEE CAPITAL ABOUT THE NEXT
CONGRESSIONAL CAMPAIGN.
The Farmers Movement Sorely Puz-
zles the Party Candidates.
What are They Going to Do about It .

Under the above headings the Spring
field correspondent Of the Chicago T;fbune
has a couple Of columns Of gossip in regard
to the 4th, 5th, 9th and It'll congressional
districts, and promises to review the other
districts in the State soon. We copy
what he says about our district;
The sixth District
takes in Lee, Bureau, Putnam, Henry and
Rock Island counties, and is represented
by the Hon. John B. Hawley, of Rock ISL
and, now in his third term. He has i'm
proved by experience in Congress, and has
always been a strong man of the party in
the District. There is discomfort on ac-
count Of his summary removal of Haver-
stick, of the Rock Island Union, from the
Post Office of that city, which he gave to
"Will' Jackson, his henchman. The
Union is the party paper, and, as the
Union is Haverstick, it is opposed to Mr..
Hawley. That journal has created an i'm
preston abroad that Hawley has been in
Congress long enough, and that change
would do neither him nor the District any
harm. There are patriots willing to take
a nomination. Edwin III. Johnston, a law
yer of Rock Island, now in his second term
as Representative, is mentioned as the
Rock Island county candidate in case
there is any danger of Mr. Hawley
being rejected. Johnston is rabid
party man, and is notorious in the legisla-
ture as an opponent of the Illinois River
Improvement. Norman Ryan, of Lee, a
rising and rather brilliant lawyer, pretend
ed to be candidate last time, and if he
remains in the district will loom up in the
future He is rather timid about striking
outfrom the party, and will not be heard
Of for year or two. Henry d. Dement, is
son Of old Col. John Dement,, who will
be remembered as a high-cockaiorum in
the Democratic party n. B.-'Vere is
dot barty now?'') Henry is Republican
and is member of this General Assem-
bly,, where he became famous by abolish.
ing court in the town Of Amboy. He
hives in Dixon, is young man, and not
bad-looking.
John g, Freeman, who lives at Snatch
wine, Putnam county, when he is not il
the legislature, would like to visit Wash
ington as Congressman, and will probably
try his luck.
LORENZO d. WHITING,
Of the Constitutional Convention, and Of
two terms in the Senate, is an odd Senate
rial District. and would be happy to change
the monotony of Tiskilwa, Bureau county
to seek fame at the National Capital. He
is hayseed Republican that Is. he as
sumes to champion Anti Monopoly move
ment, while at the same time, he defends
the party which is the worst monopoly Of
all, He is a stubborn legislator, and did
as much as any one to prevent any modif-
cation of the railroad As a preliminary
to the Governorship he desires to win his
spurs in Congress Charles Durham, OF
