Too Bad.

After all its rantiDg and raving against
citizens ticket, and its strenuous efforts
to place straight ticket in the field. the
Union feels constrained to endorse Mayor
Reynolds, who has positively declared that
be will not accept a partizan nomination
from any party, After imagining that all
the wisdom of the Republican party was
con densed into the Union office, after
fondly believing hat the great brain of its
two editors moulded the sentiment and
controlled the policy OF the Republican
party-after all this, it is really too bad
that that paper finds itself forced to get
down and take back seat 1t has dIscov-
cred that there is much practical good
sense in the Republican party, some po-
litical sagacity among its members, that
there are many who think more OF the
welfare of the city than they do of q par
tizan victory, that the majority Of the party
do not propose to follow its incompetent
leadership and submit to an overwhelming
defeat just to please 4 couple of iudividu-
ais who, by accident, mold position where
they eau force their crude ideas upon the
public There is no doubt but that this
action of the majority of tax payers will
be a dis appointment to the Organ aud its
party, as their only hope of success lies in
triangular contest. Il may possibly dis
appoint others who hope TO place Third
Ward Alderman in the Mayors chair as
a tool of it's little ring, and who, we uu
derstand, refuses to sign a citizens or indie
pendent call, because he does net know
how Mayor Reynolds stands on the ten
pernnce question! Heaveus and earth!
just as though his position on that subject
would make any difference to man who
will act as chairman of q citizens meeting
and tAcn vote against some of its nomi-
nees! Representing capital, yet voting for
the candidate Of a communist partyl 1t
begins to look as though taxpayers would
be called upon to decide whether they will
place the financial management of the
city, burdened with over three hundred
thousand dollars Of debt, in the hands of a
true and tried officer, or in the hands of a
party whose underlying sentiment is com
munism. and whose members are already
apportioniDg the Offices among themselves
at salaries sWellel to the full limit of the

Lively stock Operations.

The current of recent events has given
great impetus to business in Wall street,
and many successful turns are reported
where immense profits are made in short
periods. The most successful way that
we have heard of yet for operating in
stocks is by the combination method of
Messrs. Lawrence & Co., Bankers, New
York. By this system thousands of orders
In various sums are pooled into one vast
capital and operated under the most ex-
perieuced and skillful management, thus
securing to each shareholder superior ad-
vantages and profits, not possible in any
other way. Profits are paid at the end of
80 days. }. Jones, of Boston made 1857. 80

union of the old settlers of Rock Island
county will be held at the Rock Island

Uncle Toms Cabin.

This popular play is to be presented ct
Darts Hall, by the Gotthold & Rial COM
pany whose rendition of the piece in New
York. Chicago, and the Metropolitan cities
has won unstinted praise. The play has
been re-dramatized and as now present
ed is more intensely interesting than ever.
The company who will appear here is the
same as has appeared in all the large
cities, and every detail will be included
that is part of the new, dramatization, In
Chicago, about seven months ago, the
play was presented at McVicker's to
crowded houses for q long season, and I'D
to the very last night the interest was
undated, hundreds nightly being unable
to gain admission. A feature of the new
play will be Lawyer Marks, and his train
ed donkey, creating merriment at each
appearance. In addition to the regular
cast, there is a band of Jubilee singers,
with genuine old plantation songs, and a
regular cotton picking scene. We are
assured by Mr.. Gotthold that the play
will be given in full,incIuding all the grand
spectacular effects Little Eva will sing
| two songs one Of which the Beautiful
Gates Ajar,,' is rendered with plaintive
effect. In word, the people of Rock
Island and vicinity will have an oppor-
tunity of witnessing this popular play in
a manner never before presented, and all
who desire to attend will do we'll to secure
seats early. The box office will open
at Wylie & McCunes, next Tuesday

AT Galesburg the scarlet fever has be-
come fearful epidemic, and the disease is
spreading at terrible rate. The board
of health have taken due precaution to pre-
vent further spread of the disease. but it
seems that their efforts have not met with
success Every house. throughout the city
in which there is case has hugh pla-
card upon it. There has been large
number of cases in which the.patients died
in twenty-four hours after taking the dis
ease.
1t low transpires that the real cause
why the Union has raised such a howl
against citizens ticket was for fear, if it
should be elected, that Y. Nj. Banding
would be re-appointed city attorney. We
were not aware that it feared Mr.. Banding
to that extent. AS an officer he has GER
tainIy performed his duty to the satisfac-
ton of the council and to the advantage of
the city. There has been no occasion to
employ John B. Hawley or other attorneys
to do his work for him; even the Union
names no cases he has bungled or lost, no
neglect of duty, no official act that has been
detriment TO the city. 1t is safe to con.
clude, judging from the burden of the
Unions song, that it begrudges Mr.. Blan>
ding the small salary attached to the Office,
or that it fears him as a dangerous polite
al opponent; or, it is possible, that the
memory of some of the raps he gave the
editors of that wise sheet when, severa
months ago, he was connected with this
paper, still rankles in their manly breasts
We have the evidence of an old and reIi
able republican that this IS their only OBJ
lection to citizens ticket; this is corrob
grated by the gibberish wit about the at
torney's salary as soon as Mr.. Blanding's
back is turned, also It's sudden change o.
position favoring the reelection of Mayor
Reynolds, whom it knows toiU not dccep
partizan nomination, as soon as it ap
pears that MIR. Banding has gone to TAX

GENTLEMEN:-You communication re-
questing the use of my name at the en-
suing city election as a candidate for
Mayor, irrespective Of party, has been
duly received.
| avail myself of this opportunity to ten
der my sincere Acknowledgements for your
expressions of continued confidence and
your endorsement of my official conduct
during the past year; an assurance, per-
NIT me to say, which derives both i'm
portance and significance from its nom
partizan nature and its deviation from the
usual party agencies.
The honorable yet responsible position
of Mayor is one which have never per-
sonally sought, and in the discharge OF its
numerous and important duties, L have
not looked forward to a second term,
nor been actuated by a desire to
secure a reelection. Were [ to consult
only my own wishes and feelings [ should
greatly prefer to retire from the mayorali-
ty at the close of the present term; yet the
wishes of my fellow citizens expressed in
the manner they have been, and under
circumstances implying confidence and re-
spect of men among all parties, are of that
representative character and urgent force
which l do not feel at liberty to withstand.
| accede to your request as non poitical
candidate. In the event of my reelection
l shall endeavor for the future, as in the
past, to administer the affairs of the city
as its chief executive officer solely and sing.
~ for the interests and welfare of all
citizens alike, without reference to political
or partizan interests, believing that q
strictly non-partlzan administration OF
municipal affairs at the present time, and
under the present burden of city indebt-
edness, will best promote the general good
and NEST effectively secure the real inter
ests and welfare of the city.
Respectfully Yours,

Mayor Reynolds as a Non-Partisan
Candidate for Mayor

Candidats for Mayor.
At late hour this afternoon we are
called upon to publish the reply of Mayor
Reynolds to n request asking him to again
be candidate for Mayor. We are in
formed that the request is signed by up
wards Of six hundred citizens aud mem
bers Of all parties. His reply is charac
teristic Of the man, and clearly de
hnes his position as strictly
non partlzaD candidate, and at the
same time it indicates full sense of the
Importance of the position and the duties
be is asked to again assume; also that he
fully realizes the situation of the finances
OF the city, aud the necessity of the most
careful management of all its resources. 1t
is unnecessary for US to predict what he
will do, If elected, or to comment upon his
administration during the past year. The
result is before the people, they can judge
of it themselves. hayor Reynolds is now
squarely before the people for re-elec-
tion, backed by a numerously signed
petition of citizens of all parties,
and it is now in order for political parties
to decide what course they will pursue. In
the face of the fact that the request, ask
ing Mayor Reynolds to become a candi-
date, is signed by the most influential
members of the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties, it is quite probs BILE that both
of these parties will make him their candi-
date. One thing is certain, it will be diff
6cult for either of these parties to find a
man at this time who will be willing to
court defeat by running as a partizan candi-
date

Nerve Iuquietude and its remedy.

Restless nerves, at least those that are
constantly 50, are weak ones as we'll. The
true way to tranquilize them thorough
ly is to strengthen them. It may be, nay.
it very often is necessary to have recourse
to sedative or even an opiate, in dan
gerous cases OF nervous inquietude, hut
the continued use of such unnatural palia-
tives, is greatly to be deprecated. Though
not, in restricted sense, a specific for ner-
vousness Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is
eminently calculated to allay and eventual
ly overcome it, fact which the recorded
experience of many goes to substantiate
This ?inestimable tonic, by promoting d.
gestion assimilation and secretion, touches
the three key notes upon which the harm
ony of all the bodily organs depends, and
the result is that fresh stores of vitality
are diffused through the system, of which
the nerves receive their due apportionment
and grow tranquil as they gather strength

peering through the darkness. "Will he never re

thoughts were of her mother, who lay in q room
close by, prostrated with a ehrenic female COM
plant and had been despaired of by gall. Some
one said that English Female Bitters would cure
her mother, and this girl had dispatched some one
to the drug store for bottle 1t came. her mother

has life lease of the Office of Assessor 2
If so, it is useless to go through the form
of an election; if not, then | think, it is
high time for the interest of the tax pay
ers that change should made, and man
chosen capable and honest enough to make
an impartial assessment-one that will do
the fair thing towards all, instead of IA
vored few. This self-nominated candidate
has become too much of barnacle for me
to support any longer. [ have done so for
the last time. TAX PAYER.
