To our Friends and Patrons OF Rock
Island and Moline.

Two years having elapsed, since the
issuing of our third directory, for Rock
Island and Moline, we deem it advisable
to come before you IN this manner and
state that it is our intention to issue our
fourth volume for your cities nest year,
just as we stated in the introduction of our
last edition. We call your attention to
this matter more particularly, from the
fact that possibly some unknown person or
persons may make an attempt to get out a
directory in the meantime. as we haYe
found them doing during our absence in
many cities where we have been establish
ed and become recognized publishers, as
we have been in Rock Island and Moline
for the past tsoelve years. With this
announcement we conclude. hoping that
you will reserve that patronage for us
which the merits of our works demand, as
we have spent much money, and the best
part of our lives in building up our large
business and issuing superior directories,
which can only be accomplished by large
expenditures. patient perseverance and
adspability TO the work engaged 10. Until
the issue of our fourth edition 10 1881, we

Words of q Statesman.
st. Louis Republican.


THE army should have nothing to do
with the election or inauguration of presi-
DENTS" says Gen, Hancock In his admira-
BILE letter of 1876 to Gen. Sherman. THE
people elect the president. Congress
declares 10 joint session who he is. We,
of the army. have nothing to do but obey
his mandates. and we are protected in Sc
doing so far as they may be lawful. Our
system does not provide that one president
shall elect another"
1t has been disparagingly asserted that
Hancock is q good soldier, but unfamiliar
with the methods and practices of civil
government; but it may be safely said that
these words, uttered in the darkest hour
of the threatening uncertainty OF 1876,
embody clearer and more accurate
knowledge of the true way through that
crisis than all the Republican statesmen OF
the land exhibited. No one can forget
the quarter from which came the perils
that threatened Us in the dispute four
years ago. The Republicans had resolved
to inaugurate their candidate. This they
could not hope to do without the aid of
President Grant, who would cease to be
president before the time came to install
his successor; and President Grant agreed
to assist them. He put this agreement in
the form of promise to maintain the
peace of the country and turn over the
executive Office to the person who should
have been duly declared elected; hut the
whole country knows now, if it did not
know then, what this meant-the surren-
der of the executive Office to Mr.. Hayes,
whom Mr.. Ferry, as president of the sem
ate, would have previously declared cleo
ted. The whole Republican party applau-
ded the Grant declaration, and they
approved the secret assemblage of troops
at Washington with which to enforce it.
And yet President Grant had no more
Authority for bis promise to preserve
peace and turn over the government to
his successor than Sitting Bull or Ayoob
| Khan would have had for similar assur.
ance, It was no part of his business to
preserve peace after his term of office
expired. 1t was no part of his business to
decide who was his lawful successor and
turn over" the government to him.
THIS government is not a thing to be
turned over by one man to another. As
Gen, Hancock says: Our system does
not provide that one president shall inaug-
urate another" Had Grant attempted the
role he proposed and which the Repubi-
can leaders urged upon him. it would have
been bold usurpation. He would no
longer have been president and, therefore
no longer commander-in chief with author
ity to issue commands to the army: and
had be attempted to keep himself at the
head of the army. any captain or sergeant
would have been bound to cot him down
with his sword. and yet all the Republican
leaders approved bis lawless design, and
ready to recognize the proposed usurpa-
ton,
