The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1881-06-22

There was a treasury investigation start
ed out with lately which promised some
interesting developments. Secretary Win
dom had it conducted and gave it a good
share of his attention. Pitny, custodian Of
the treasury, at first occupied the greater
share Of the time of the committee and
full reports of the proceedings were sent
daily. But suddenly the whole thing ceas-
ed, the matter was dropped into obscurity
and no more come to us of that investiga
ton. Pitny was discharged when the COM
mittee reported and Window refuses to
divulge any of the report. The wherefor
of this sudden quietness in matter that
was begun SO loudly is q question of con-
siderable interest As far as Pitney was
concerned his simple dismissal was not
enough. It was clearly shown that he was
implicated to a criminal intent, why then
was he not prosecuted? Was it because
if he was convicted he would unburden
himself of facts and figures that would i'm
plicate others of higher position and
greater future? Was it because
men in the country were afraid of the evil
dence Pitney would give if put on his de-
fence in open court? Was it because there
was too much John Sherman in the affair?
The people viii always think SO unless that
investigation is carried out to it's fullest
extent and the result made public. We
have grown tired in this country of having
investigations stopped and thieves shelter
ed, because there is danger of showing up
some bigger man behind them Let James
see to it that he doest not follow WINDOWS
example. A stoppage of the star route in
vestigation now would not look well

The New York World has it that the
supporters of Conkling are actuated by
gratitude for past favors; his opponents by
hopes of future, which with few excep-
tons hits the case quite closely. Robert
son and Woodlin are fighting for revenge,
the rest of the anti Conhingites for office,
when Strahan testified as to the office that
had been offered him. No wonder the
half breeds could not understand such a
refusal. They had deserted Conkling in
hopes of having an office offered them and
here was man who refused to leave him,
even when the office was sure thing.

Take me again to your heart as of yore-
Hiss from my forehead the furrows of care,
Smooth the few silvered threads ont of INV hair

Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleep!
Backward, flow backward, oh. tide of the wears!

Iske them, and give me my childhood again!
nave grown weary of dust and decay,
Weary Of ninging my soul-wealth away
weary of sowing for others to reap;-
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleep!
Tired of the hollow, tho base, the untrue,
Mother, oh, mother, my heart calls for you!
Many summer the grass has grown green,
Blossomed and faded, our faces between.
Yet with strong yearnlngs and passionate pain,
Long tonight for your presence again;
Come from the silence so long and so deep
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleep!
Over my heart, in the days that are flown,
No love like mother-love ever has shone-
No other worship abides and endures
Faithful, unselfsh, and patient, like yours
None like mother can charm away pain
From the sick soul and world-weary brain:
Slumbers soft Gains DER my heavy lids creep
Rock me to sleep, MOTHERHOOD me to sleep!
Come, let your brown hair, just lighted with gold
Fall on your shoulders again as of old
Let 1t drop over my forehead tonight,
Shading my faint eyes away from the light;
For with its sunny-edged shadows once more
HAPPY will throng the sweet visions of yore
Lovingly, softly, it's bright pillows weep
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleep!
Mother, dear mother the years have been long,
Since have listened to your lullaby song
Sing, then, and unto my soul it shall seem
Womanhood's years have been only drean,:-
Clasped to your heart in loving embrace,
With your light lashes just sweeping my face,
Never, hereafter, to wake or to weep
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleep!

Editor Miner:
DEAR SIR-Business in Glendale seems to
be Frightening mp. Aessrs. Thomas & Arm
strong tell me that there is more money in
circulation here now than there has been for
the last two years.
There seems to be a general demand for
labor. Mr.. Nsel, of the firm OF Murphy,
Neel & Co., told me to-day that he wanted to
hire ten or fifteen men, and the Hecla com
pany want fifty men at once, az they are run
ming both furnaces.
The merchants of Glendale feel very in
dienant in regard 10 their treatment by the
railroad company. 1t seems that all OF their
goods which are plainly marked for Aelrose'
are taken up TO Silver Bow junction, delayed
there from one to two weeks, and are then
shipped back to Melrose, the railroad COM
paay demanding freight charges from Melross
to Silver Bow and return.

THE END.
Coroner's Inquest on the Remains Of
Lotto Pickett.

As announced in yesterdays MINER Lottie
Pickett died about two O'Clock Friday morn
ing. From the very first it was not thought
that the unfortunate woman could live
as the wound was almost necessarily fatal.
The coroner held an inquest yesterday morn
ing about half-past ten O'Clock, the following
iury having been summoned: Messrs. Fred
Gilbert, Of Gilbert & Tyler; S. A. Estes, of
Lee W. Foster Il Co.; Lou p. Smith; Har-
nv D'Acheul, of Parchen q D'Acheul; Jere
Mccarthy and II. &. Walton Of Owsley q
Walton.
The verdict found was that the deceased
came to her death by a pistol wound inflicted
by some person unknown.
1t seems to be the general impression
among those best informed in regard to the
facts efthe case, and among several of the jul
rors, that the shot was not fired Intentionally.
if at all, by Miss Pickett herself. The position
of the wound is such that the pistol must
have been held in the left hand on the by
pothesis of suicide, which would seem to neg
alive any such supposition. The trends OF
TIE deceased, knowing Of her previous at
temps at seif-destrucLion-by poison, think
that if Miss Pickett shot herself her intention
was to infict simply a slight flesh wound. In
view of all the circumstances the theory first
advanced that there was a man in the case.
and that the pistol was accidentally discharS-
ed in a struggle for its possession, seems the
most plausible. However, this may be, the
s,- ....,in ;nuo1UaI in Sppb uncertainty
that it is not at all impossible that i murder
has been committed, as declared by he de-

The Hamilton Process.

1t has leaked out that the Hamilton
process, about which so much has been
said, and which was expected to revolu-
tionize the amalgamation of gold and
silver ores, has been tried in New York
and did not accomplish what was ex-
pected of it. 1t was claimed that ores
could be reduced by it at 81 per ton, but
the experiment is said to have proved
that it could not reduce ores at any
price. Improvements have been sug-
gested the trial of which, when made,
NAV result in the successful treatment
of ores.-Ogden Pilot, Dec. IA.
