When an alderman intimates that he
votes against the granting of leEee facilities
to steamboat lines because he owns little
property on the river bank and wants the
boats to come and land near his lot, it is
about time for him to resign and let the
voters of his ward elect some man who will
have some regard for the business inter
ests of the city; examine the council pro.
ceediDgs and watch the vote on the ratifi-
cation of the contract with the Diamond Jo
line and see whom this coat fits. and what
motives influence those who vote to give

The celebration of this day in this city
was one of the grandest the societies have

members in uniform; then the Nationa

the st. Patricks society, followed by its
members ia uniform. After marching to
the bridge to meet the Moline and Daven
port societies they marched back to the
church where an eloquent address was de-
livered by Father MackiD. At its close, The
procession reformed with the Rock Island
societies In the same order as before, follow

members dressed 10 black wearing rosett.

The Antagonistic Influences of Love
and Hate

An attentive aud intelligent audience
were present last evening at the Broadway
St. Presbyterian Church, and were re-
warded for their attendance by we'll
written and forcible address from G, W,
Skinner, Esq.
The caption above given was the per-
vading idea of the address. With some
verbal changes, and perhaps some partial
Encouragement of paragraphs, his Dis
QUESTION would constitute an interesting
and valuable contribution to the columns
of Religious Review. The method of
treating the subject, the line of thought
pursued, and the applicability of the illus
trations presented, were indicative Of an
honest purpose and an earnest desire TO
present truth in its strength and simpIici-
ty, and in manner to go direct to the
hearts and consciences of his hearers. As
literary production, it was alike credit.
able to his head and heart.

Everybody had supposed that the ques-
ton of the landing for the ferryboat was
permanently settled; that it would not
again be an issue in our city politics, or the
subject of city legislation. The city has
expended some six or seven thousand
dollars in making good landing at the
foot of 18th street, and are furthermore OF
the opinion that the present landing was
selected and improved with the sanction of
the owners of the ferry.
1t was pretty generally understood that
the attempt to move it back to the foot of
18th street during the administration OF
Mayor Gait, was on account of certain
coal interests more than on account of the
desirability of 18th street as a landing.
The question was settled at the polls and
then settled by the city council forcibly
moving the landing to its proper place
The question has again appeared before
the council in the shape of petition to be
allowed to remove to- the foot of 18th
street, after two years of quiet satisfaction
with the present landing.
Why? A very pertinent question a
this time, and may be answered, or tn,
answer inferred from the situation o
affairs on the levee. The city has granted
$50 feet to the Northern Line on which t
build a wharf boat. The contract ha
been executed with the Northern Line AM
work begun. The ;old council granted
the Diamond 10 Line 60 feet just below
which was only matter of justice, bu
did not execute the contract. Why
All at once the ferry steps in and asks
go back to 18th street which, if granted
would prevent the Diamond 10 line fror
landing and thus give the Northern Line
monopoly. The petition and the exeeutio
of the contract we're left over by the oil
council.
1t is to be hoped that the new counc
will Immediately execute the contract wit
the Diamond 10 Line and not give IL
Northern Line monopoly of the shippir
business.
We can safely assert that nothing equa
