Justice Pinkley's Court.

Henry Morse and Charles Buckley were
drunk and disorderly at the saloon of VIM.
Miller, corner of Illinois aud Madison
streets, Saturday, and in the row Morse
fell against the glass door and broke sew
eral panes of glass. He was arrested by
Policeman Murrin and taken to Jail. This
morning be was fined S. and costs. Paid
ard discharged.
Saturday night Policemen Murrin and
Littig followed Charles Buckley and Lizzie
Lee to the house of the latter, on Orleans
street, between Dock and Broadway, which
the two entered. while the officers listened
at the door, Charles and Lizzie were
drunk, and after entering the house an an
CRY discussion arose as to how much he
was to pay for lodging. Lizzie wanted 81
while Charles only wanted to pay 81, but
it was at last settled by his paying 81.
The two then retired. but the officers
soon disturbed their guilty slum-
bers by knocking on the door, Lizzie
refused to open the door at first but she
was at last persuaded to do SO, and with a
volley of the most vile oaths. The police
found them both in very nude condition,
and after they were dressed they were
taken tojail. This morning they were
fined SO and costs each, Buckley paid
IN and was discharged. Lizzie paid 500
and was sent to Jail for the balance.

There will be but one voting place to-
morrow-at the engine house.
The lecture at Timms Hall Saturday
night, was we'll attended, and the remarks

grounds for the affirmative of his subject,
prohibition, not Temperance, and is
equally ultra in advocating thatSthe Sun

good, although he was too radica! on some
points.
The election for alderman of the Third
Ward, on Saturday, passed off very quiet
ly, and very light vote was polled. Up
to noon but q votes had been cast, for
Grant,. when rumor got started that the
Hemenway men were going to 60 come up
in body at the last moment, and endeav-
or to elect their favorite. As soon as this
became known, the Germans focked 10
to the polls in large numbers, and soon run
the vote up to 10 for Grant,; thus insur-
ing his choice without opposition, and
electing councilman in sympathy with the
people. The alderman-elect, is one of our
most popular Germans, and is a man Of
fair attainments, and strong decision Of
character. He will no doubt prove val
liable member of the council.

THE ADMINISTRATION REFUSES
TO RELIEVE OUR CIGAR
MAKERS.
And Misstates their Case,

When Gen. Henderson, our member of
congress, was here, not long since, one of
the editors of this paper laid before him
the facts in regard to the seizure of cigars
from our manufacturers and dealers, who
had paid all the taxes required by the gov
eminent, but who had pressed the brand,
eolored with indelible ink, into the boxes,
instead of burning it in, and asked him to
write to Washington for their relief. Gen.
Henderson desired us to send him the
facts in regard to the matter, and he would
see what could be done for their relief
We sent him the facts, the names of the
parties suffering, the list Of cigars seized
the advertisement for their sale, and g
couple Of the boxes used, one with the
pressed-n stamp and one with the burned
in stamp, showing that the pressed-ir
stamp. though not technically in accord
ance with the strict words of the law, was
the plainest and most effective.
Gen. Henderson interested himself il
behalf of our citizens and did all he coulc
in the premises, but his efforts were no
effectual, as will be seen by the following
letters:

The Athletic Club Entertainments.

The opening entertainment of the Athle-
tic Club, by Ale P. Burbank, was
fattering success, both in point of attend
ance and in the general satisfaction given
by the accomplished elocutionist The re-
citation of Surly Tins troubles seemed to
US to be the gem of the evening. The
Lancashire dialect was not quite broad
enough, but the acting was spirited and
natural. The piece is full of fine sentiment.
The pathetic parts caused many an eye
to glisten with tear. Miss Fannie
Hodgson, the author, is young lady of
only %, whose fine productions give pro-
mise of much usefulness.
The characteristics of some of the early
Irish Catholic priests vas humorously
portrayed in the extract from Lover, in
regard to Father Pills collection to repair
the roof of the church and the close OF
it was perfectly charming, in the
fervent devotion of priest and congrega-
ton, ending with glowing tribute to the
Irish Nation which elected applause.
Everything connected with the entertain
ment was good, and Mr.. Burbank has
found warm place in the affections o
many Rock Islanders.

Enfeebling Pursuits.

Nature interested that we should use our legs
freely, and Erevenges herself upon those who con-
stanty sit at their daily avocations iu doors by
depriving them of that robust health which
usually falls to the share of those who labor on
foot in the open air, and very frequently inflcts
upon them disease and premature infImities which
they might have avoided by more active life.
Persons who become enfeebled in consequence of
sedentary habits of occupation cannot do better
than to resort to a course of Holsters Stomach
Bitters as means of recovering lost stren5ht Nor
should they postpone recourse this supreme
tonic and prevently of physical decay longer than

The purpose of Mr.. Pratt's Office is to
collect the revenue-nothing else but that.
His duties are to see that the revenue. is
paid and no fraud on the revenue COM
mitted. That covers his whole duty.
And when he knows that the revenue has

He was not appointed for any such pur.
pose as that, and the people will condemn

THE REASON. -The reason for the I'M
precedented demand for DIR. Price Cream
Baking Powder and True Flavoring Ex-
tracts, Vanilla, Lemon, etc.. is the result
of their being just as represented, of su-
perior strength and uniform quality, coupl-
ed with the equally potential fact that
they contain not one grain of unwholesome
substances. Having thoroughly tested
them ourselves we have no hesitaucy in
saying that they will accomplish just what
is claimed for them, and one single trial
will readily convince any person as to the
truth Of our assertion.

10 the Editors OF Inc Argus.
When you first charged H. G. Cleave-
land with taking money belonging to the
town was in hopes he could give some
reasonable explanation of the matter, aud
[ noticed that you expressed similar hope
and rendered him the free use of your col
umns to do so-but he has offered no ex-
cuse. This conduct of his is suspicious,
and l took the pains to examine
the matter more thoroughly, for
[ am a Republican and intended to vote
for Cleaveland; but am now fully satisf-
ed that he committed an outrage on the
people and shall give my vote to Porter
Party considerations sinki into insignif-
canoe when the question of honestyis con-
cerned, and in view of the unrefutcd ex-
posture of Cleaveland | think it the duty of
every Republican to vote for Porter, II
the Republicans expect to succeed in the
coming presidential contest they must
show that they are in favor of protecting
the public funds from such raids as Cleave

Drove:

On Saturday, Guyer, the driver of the
Republican ring, attempted to call a dis
tinguished and influential Republican to
account for supporting Sam Porter. The
gentleman turned on the ring driver and
said; Look here. Guyer. l am getting
along in years; my teeth are rather ten

The interests of the people of this county
require the election of Sam Porter, as
things now stand, and you ring drivers

An Outrage on the People of Moline,

The evening paper of Rock Island has
stated that there would be three voting
places in Moline on election day. Such is
not the case, The board of supervisors
failed to appoint any judges, consequently
the election will be held at the engine
house as usual,
The fault is not with the board of super
visors-it is with the Moline supervisors,
who failed to ask for the appointment of
judges. The Moline supervisors failed to
perform their duty, either through care
less neglect of the peoples interests or of
those who want to keep the people at one
place. The loss of time to the people, by
compelling them all to vote at one place,
is worth good deal Of money to them,
and it is their right to have such number
of voting places as will enable them to vote
without any delay. Next spring they
should send supervisors who will attend to
the duties of their office.

what are you going to do about it?" Sat-
urday evening, Ii, G. cleveland was in a
saloon in this city, pretty full of whisky,
and he was publicly charged with taking
$l6S.O7 of the peoples money. Yes"
said he, I've got it and I'm going to keep
it. What you going to do about it? l
defy the town to get it, What you going
to do about it?"
The people should answer him through
the ballot box-what they are going to do
about it.
If we had Supervisor and town board
who had proper regard for the peoples
rights he would have been prosecuted for
his act long ago. We hope to have town
board next spring who will prosecute him
and recover the money.

weary days They cause and are the source

see the eyes of their little ones brighten
and their spirits far more cheerful.
