1t is necessary that we call public atten-
ton to the fact that it is the right Of execu-
tors or administrators Of estates to have
their probate advertising done in any news
paper in the county they wish. Several
notices Of this kind have appeared in the
Ussion which we have reason to know the
executors and administrators prefer should
have appeared in, The ARGUS. They
leave the matter with Guyer, the county
judge. or with Cook, the clerk, and. in the
absence of any directions, they give them
all to the Union. Executors and admin
strators who want their notices published
in THE ARGUS should attend to that mat
ter themselves, and not leave it to Guyer
or Cool, or to the lawyers employed! THE
ARGUS only asks fair play. but il can't ge,
| it unless executors and administrators will
attend to the matter themselves. If

ABOUT CONTRACTION.
How the Volume Of the Currency has
been Increased.

The rag-baby Democrats in Ohio and
Pennsylvania charged, in their soft-money
resolutions, that the Republican party had
contracted the volume of our currency.
This is exactly what ought to be done, for
there is too much of the rag-baby stuff al.
ready in circulation. But the Washington
Chronicle says: LG "
There is only one year since the Repub-
lican party came into power in which the
official returns showed a contraction, and
then to the extent of only few million
dollars, as the following figures will show.
There is in circulation to-day, of paper
currency, $769, 840,ll9. which, in round
numbers, is

The excitement among the fishermen
of the city yesterday was intense. Ross

G. w. Tomlinson. Of Swedona, had
rather discouraging time at our fair this
year. He brought fine young imported

was too sick to, be removed. 1t fingered
on until last Saturday, when death put
an end to its misery. The horse had the

John Suffer, living in the 5th ward, was
arrested and taken to Jail last evening by
Marshal Halves on complaint of Milton
Holmes, who charged him with stealing a
stove and selling it at VIM. Fl. Lundy's.
He was taken before Justice Pinkley,
where it appeared that the parties owned
the stove in partnership and that Suffer
had sold it and pocketed the money. He
was discharged.

Sos millions more than in IS

More than, this: the new finance bill
does not provide for contraction. 1t grad
ually withdraws, as the first step, the frac.
tional paper currency, and issues silver
coin in its place. That can easily be ac-
complished, as the currency is now at par
value with silver, and our minis turned out
coin during the last fiscal year to the value
of forty-three millions of dollars, and will
double the amount during the present
year. -
In fact, the bill, instead Of calling for a
contraction of currency, really provides for
an expansion, to a. limited extent only
eighty dollars in legal tenders being retired
for each hundred dollars of bank notes is
sued.

Whom the.Gods would destroy they first make
mad >
1t is only few months ago that one Of
our citizens felt so mean over the thought
of his being an attendant at disreputable
performance in Davenport that, on the
way home, he arose in the wagon, and, latter
carefully lifting his coat, said, boys won't
some of you kick me, yes, all of you kick
me down the bank" This is about the
feeling that animates certain members Of
the city council, judging from their instruc
tons to E. W. Boynton to sue them fol-
his pay as brevet superintendent of The
water works. They feel that an applica
ton of law will do them good, so they pro
pose that the city shall pay the expenses o
suing herself. These self important alder
men preceive that they have put thei
fingers into disagreeable mess and ar,
trying to make Mr.. Boynton pull them out
That gentleman has as yet shown no dis
position to sue the city, aud. possibly, if h
is obliged to resort to law for his pay, vii
consider his chances of success more Gel
tain in commencing suit against those VIII
employed him. The fact that boast
we're made that they would make
hot for the mayor does not help then
with the people in their senseless an
foolish action of trying to saddle the e,
penses of their spite upon the city. VIII
ever heard of such thing, as a city couI
