a Pretty Good Spell.

The young folks had jolly time at the
spelling school in the basement of the
Baptist church last evening. Capt. Nc
Kown and Mr.. Frank Sinnet were chosen
Captains, aud after choosing 20 on each
side, spelling began. Mr.. 8. s. Kemble,
principal of the first ward school, acted as
master. The third word given ont was
"nourish, which was missed by one Of our
city school teachers, on Mr.. Sinnet's side.
Mr.. Sinnet thought that he had the strong
est side because he had three or four
school teachers, but they retired early.
Some thought the master was partial to
Capt. McKown's side, and Mr.. Sinnet called
his attention to the matter. After that
all went on smoothly. After giving out
about one hundred words only one young
lady miss Alice Davis, daughter Of. John
Davis formerly in the employ Of Buforis
Pillow works. was left on Sinnet's side, and
she finally succumbed to the word ''garni-
ture, spelling it. 'ature" instead of 'iture,
but recovered and corrected it before the
Master said next. but was not permitted
the benefit Of the correction. This gave
r the victory to Capt. McKown's side, with
four or FIVE spoilers still left
Then followed refreshments, served by
the ladies of the church, after which Miss

Town Election.

On Tuesday April 9th, two weeks from
next Tuesday, we have to elect township
officers. 1t is not 50 important what shall
be the political opinions Of the men to be
elected as that they be men who viii rep
resent the people truly and intelhgently.
As to the supervisors, there is a good
deal of dissatisfaction in the township OUT
side She city limits, especially in that part
Of our township which was formerly part
Of Black Hawk. The people there blame
our supervisors for not opposing what they
regard as an oppressive addition to their
taxes by the equalization committee. We
cannot afford to treat these people unkind-
ly for We do not want them to leave US.
IF they chose to do SO they could form a
new town with part of Moline) or return
to Black Hawk. Rock Island does not
want this to be done,-but it will surely
be done unless our new neighbors are
| treated with the consideration they de-
serve. IF we send supervisors to the coun
ty board who neglect their interests, al
our present supervisors have DONE they viii
not remain with us. Some arrangement
should be made by which harmony of &C
ton will be produced throughout the town
ship.
