Robbery.

Before daybreak on Saturday morning
about hundred mink skins were stolen
from Ryan's fur store in Davenport Some
300 of these skins were piled in a front
window. The glass was plate, and quar-
ter of an inch thick. How to get hole
through that glass and not alarm any one
by the noise, was the question. But the
robber had evidently cracked glass before.
He used a pretty good diamond, two CHS
els, and jimmy, inserting the end ofthe Jim
my under the glass and prying it till it was
loosened. Then he placed thick cloth
on the glass and struck on it till the cut
portion was broken, hole foot long and
six inches wide at one end, tapering oblique
~ to the lower corner of the window. Il
was an easy matter then to reach in ano
pull out the skins. He left his chiSels

The City Bridges.

On Saturday Aldermen Wollenhaupt

chased of John Offermun horse ferry
boat and one horse, with the necessary
traps for running the boat, for 1925. In
the trade Mr.. Offerman gives the use of
another horse until the bridges can be re-
built-with privilege Of buying the horse
for $l25-no risk to the city by death.
The boat is now in use, and ruDs from

horse boat can be taken up through the

ferried from Milan to Vandruf's Island
and drive down that Island to the big

In the meantime the council will probably
adopt some measures towards rebuilding
the bridges or putting them in safe con

We have just received the following
communication from Hampton:
To the Editors of The Argus:
The citizens of Hampton township met
at the Town House in Hampton on Satur-
day, April Sd, at 10 o'clock, for the pur-
pose of nominating candidates for town Of
ficers for the coming election. The meet
ing was organized by calling VIM. B. Web
ster to the chair and appointing L. D. Ed
wards secretary.
First thing in order was the supervisor,
when Thcs. s. Silvis was nominated by
reclamation. Mr.. Silvis not being present
it was not certain whether he would &C
cept or not, but the universal feeling being
that Mr.. s. had been good representa-.
tive it was concluded to keep his name al
the head of the ticket.
| j. j. Thomas was then nominated for
town clerk, r. NJ. Mitchell for assessor
Dan MeNe oil for collector, land Charles Han
newacher for commissioner Of highways.
S-Since writing the above Mr.Silvis
has been heard from and as he positively
declines reelection Jeremiah Chamberli1
was substituted instead. The ticket vii
undoubtedly be elected. Yours etc.,

The ferry boat came up from the boat
yard Sunday noon, and placed the dock in
position on the other side of the river.
To-day hands have been at work remov-
ing ice from the landing at the foot OF
Eagle street and getting the dock ready tc
launch. The boat has been lying on the
levee in rear of Hass's shop, having some
repairing done to the steam pipes. Capt

morrow she will be ready to cross teams
and make regular trips from her landing
at the foot of Eagle Street.

[ Dart and Krsll Should NOT be Reflect


Why should any man vote for krell or
Dart? The Union talks about their val
liable services" but what valuable servi-
ces" they have rendered the public it meg
lects to enumerate. That their services
have been valuable to individuals is plain
enough. But that is not what supervisors
are elected for. They are elected to rem
der service to the general public. Krell
and Dart have not done this. They have
transposed and perverted the duties Of
their Office, looking to individual and not
to pablo interests.
They opposed and helped break down
the system of purchasing county supplies
at wholesale and from the lowest bidder.
This was against public interests and in
favor of private interests.
They voted to pay bills illegally con-
tracted for spree for strangers. This
was an illegal use of the peoples money

interests of the people and for the inter
, ests of private individuals.
They sat dumb in their seats and saw
the country supervisors assess an onerous
, and unequal tax upon the property o

entering an objection. This was neglect
ing the public interests. Had there beer

had not word to say.
They voted to pay ex-sheriff Payne 81,
600 out of the peoples treasury, to whicl
he had no more claim than he has on tn
safe in the treasurer's Office. 1t was a
