Who is Right?

Capt. Robinson stated before the council
last night that he never consented to the
location of the ferry at the foot of 18th
street. The ARGUS does not say of its
own knowledge whether this statement be
true or not, but it will say that Capt
Robinson has said that he was willing to
land there if the city would make good
landing at the foot of that street and this
the city has done. This much THE AR
GUS will say that James Nj. Buford who
was mayor at the time and Jacob Riley
who was alderma an, both now say that he
was consulted at the time and consented
to the location at the foot of 7th street and
the landing was accordingly improved.
This we believe was before he purchased
the property where his bank is now located
The excuse that he made when he first
attempted to move back to 18th street was
that the landing at 18th was not good.
The city then improved it, and, we be-
lieve, paid Mr.. Fred Conway for doing the
work. When Capt. Robinson says to the
council that he intists that the city give
him another and better landing, allow US
to ask by what right does he insist.-by
the right of having an erclusiue ferry fran
chise for rs years2 Or because he agreed
to pay $500 into the school fund for this
exclusive franchise?
Insist is good word-provided he owns

After all the discussion in the papers
and the talk upon the streets, and the
efforts made to elect aldermen in the
second ward for the purpose Of moving the
ferry landing to Washington street, during
the years l87I-2-3 and 4, and in view OF
the fact that Bailey Davenport was beaten
because he would not enforce the ordi-
nance locating the ferry at the foot Of old
Eagle street, -after all these things Capt.
Robinson said in the council room last
night that he didn't know that that ques'
ton had ever been an issue in our city
politics. Does anyone remember how Mr..
Dimick used to fight for that landing.
Does anyone remember why Mr.. Peter
Fries, good democrat, was defeated il
such a strong democratic ward, or why
Mr.. Bailey a partizan republican was
elected in the same ward. We were under
the impression that the ferry landing bad
been an issue in our city elections,

The city council by the casting vote Of
Mayor Reynolds, has decided not TO give
the Diamond 10 Line equal privileges on
the levee with the Northern Line. They
granted the Diamond 10 Line such privil-
eyes as cannot be made available and thus
they have given the Northern Line a mon
opoly The effect of this will be to drive
large amount of business away from the
city, inasmuch as it makes it impossible
for the Diamond 10 Line to do its railroad
transferring at this point.
The council by the casting vote of Mayor
Reynolds also authorized the removal OF
| the ferry boat to the foot of 18th street.
To accomplish this it was necessary to
drive the Diamond 10 Line away from
the city. 10 giving the casting vote on the
first question the mayor said they might
as well have some fun out of the matter al
not )" and in giving the casting vote for tn.
removal of the ferry landing he said ht
| must vote as he thought right"
So important, in the matter of right
are the interests of the ferry that shipper,
may be subjected to the extortious of
steamboat monopoly and large business il
transferring freight at this poin
may be driven away, unless the ship
