RIVER NEWS.

The steamer Lake Superior came down
as far as Moline last night and tied up, the
wind being so strong that it wat thought
unsafe to attempt to go through the
draw at night This morning while going
through the draw the wind blew her
against the pier and she laid there over
an hour before getting of. No damage
done. She left for below.
The Red Wing is due from below and
the Muscatine from above, but neither
have arrived on account of the wind.
Capt Wordea. of the Str. Lake Su.
perior, just in from up the river, says the
ice in Lake Pepin is fifty eight inches
thick, and will net allow the passage of 8
boat before the 25th, if it does then.

In a. Rad Scrape.

There were more violators of law be-
fore Police Justice kaufman, yesterday.
for trial than on any previous day tor
weeks. The defendant in the most lm-
portant. as well as the saddest case, was a
white haired man of fifty five or sixty, who
was arrested late Wednesday night by
officers Delane. and Field. at the house of
Ann Logan, on Fourth street, between
Gaines and Warren. Ann has kept a
disorderly house for some time-and lately
her near neighbors have been afraid OF
the characters that gathered In the place
ut night. But at the time of the visit OF
these officers, the house was SILENT though
noice enough proceeded from it an hour
before. They knocked at the door and
Ann opened it; they entered, and there
stood the elderly gent, in night array-and
he Immediately let out with his right fol-
Feds face in ferocious style, swearing that
the officers shouldn't take him. 1t was
lively for couple of minutes; the officers
didn't want to hurt him, but at last the,
overpowered him, and helped him into hi!
clothes, and took him to Jail. There HI
said his name was John Collin. that b,
lived in Rock Island, draypan by pro
fession. At his trial he stated that AM
was his intended wife, that the marriag
was to come off on Sunday next, that h
was only paying his betrothed a visit, an
had no harmful intentions at all. Ann
who was present with her two babies, Col
roborated the old mans story with affirm
alive mods. The Squire told Collins tina
he would have let him off with compar
atively light fine, but he had no bushes
to assault the officers, and must pay So
with costs. The veteran couldn't pay, an
so he was sent to Jail to exercise on tn
stone pile.
Ann Logan, Collins betrothed. was u
for keeping a house of ill fame. but he

The Gazette indorses what The ARGUS
has always advocated, in regard 70 placing
the water pipes below the frost line OF the
severest winter ever known. In Its Rock
Island column it says:
SIT Is, further, o very general opinion
that. in order to place the pipes entirely
cut of danger from frost, there should be
at least sir feet of earth above them.
And not only is this opinion freely express
ed about town, but the vote in the meet.
ing of the city council, March 81, showed
that four out Of the ten members OF the
council were in favor Of laying the pipes
six feet deep. Since then Mayor Daven-
port also has stated that he is decidedly IN
favor of having six feet of earth above the
top of the pipes. So there is very stron,e
sentiment against laying the pipes onl!
FIVE feet deep"
This is not a new opinion with Mayo
Davenport. at the very first meeting un
. der his administration an attempt wa
: made to force the incompetent waite
: boards FIVE foot contract on the people
and Mayor Davenport managed to get
proyiso attached to the vote that tn
!. board should make contract for six fee
but at the next meeting those VIII
: wanted to make good and safe job wei
: outvoted.
y The Gazette says:
D. Take, for instance, the Davenport VI
ter works. The pipes are all laid so TN
there is fully siI feet OF earth apo
3 them. Last winter it was ascertalneo

frost had penetrated to soittin three men

The New Mayors Law.

The Chicago papers say there is good
deal of shaking among the incompetent
and dead beat city officials in that city, on
account of the new mayors law, many Of
them fearing they will have to leave their
snug places. OF course no mayor would
attempt to use the law in tyrannical man
ner and against a solid public sentiment
but the law is good one, and in the hands
of a good mayor, who seeks the public
good, will be terror to incompetent and
inefficient officials. Under it the mayor
can remove every official in this city, ex-
cept aldermen. if in his judgment the pub
lie good requires it. And hereafter, until
the law is changed, he will I'll all Offices,
by nomination to the city council
1t always seemed to us an absurdity to
have water board composed of men out
side the council-men not elected by the
people and not directly accountable to the
people. 1t sets up board 10 opposition
to the council, with chairman working at
cross purposes with the mayor. 1t makes
rival board and a jealousy between the
two. And the people suffer for it. The
water board should be composed of mem
bers of the council, and the mayor (who
ever be may BEL should be, by virtue o
his Office, chairman of the board. Il is
part of the city government and should b.
managed by men who are elected by th,
people-iust as much as should the streets
or the police. or the fire department, o.
any other department of the city govern
ment, and then it would work in harmony
