What do his reiterations amount to, as
compared with the explicit denial of such
men as DR.. P. L. McKinuie and Eugene
Lewis, Esq? The Union committed
most egregious error when it permitted
the publication of an article of such a
slanderous nature, and there are those in
this community who 90 not hesitate to &C
cuse that paper of publishing the COM

Moline Flour Mills.
The rapidly increasing trade of Messrs.
Waters Il First all over the country, proves,
beyond dispute, the excellent quality of the
flour manufactured by the Moline mills
The proprietors of this establishment have
been to considerable expense charging
their mill and increasing their facilities and
are now prepared to fill orders promptly.
In proof of the superior quality Of the
-four from this mill. it may be stated that
Waters Il First have Just received an order
for 500 barrels of their best grade from
Hartford. Connecticut The Moline -four
vas compared with numerous samples and
declared to be superior to any presented
for examination. While the trade outside
OF Moline is rapidly improving, there is
still room for local orders from our mer-
chants, who o1ght to patroniZe an estab-
iishment of this kind. as it unques:ionabiy
draws large country trade to the city.
The farmer comes here to dispose OF his
grain and finds ready market, receives
his paw. and proceeds to do his trading
among the merchants. These points
should be fully considered by our home
| dealers; local industries should at all times
be encouraged, especially where the pro-
auctions are as low as anywhere-as is the
case with the Moline mills Messrs Wa
| ters u First are honorable business men
and are prepared to fill orders at prices
that will compare fayorably with the mar.
kets of Chicago. St Louis, Milwaukee anG

The Moline School District Imbroglis
The petitioners in this complicated cas-
deny the assertions of John Stewart anC
claim that he is we'll aware that they 9TH
petitioners have not asked for, nor do the,
want new school house; that what the,
DO want is to be annexed to District No
II; that even should new school house b.
built it would not be erected near Heck
farm as stated by Stewart. but would b.
located near the center Of the district tina
he Is. is unfair in his position, and ask
the sisners of the petition to walk nearly
mile TO the present school house
but opposes new school house, or annex
alton even, Tor the same reasons, thereby
showing, as the petitioners claim, thor
oughly selfish spirit. The parties wht
signed the petition further state that the.
do not expect annexation before the mex
meeting of the Trustees, which occurs il
April next; that the object Of the man
damus, which they will apply for, will b,
to compel the trustees Of No. | to act a
thei. first meeting; that otherwise the,
the petitioners would be Compelled t
wait another term.
In regard to the point made by Mr.
= Stewart that the teachers salaries woult
/ have to be paid-it is only necessary to sa,
that their time expires April 1st, and a
: the annexion prayed for can not be accom-
plished before that time, there can be n
loos of money to the people Of the district

Smith, school director of No. l. he elaine,
that the petition does not contain til
names of two thirds of the legal voters G
