The Davenport Gazette of this morning
says that 'tAs one of Millers hacks, driven
by a man named Ruch, came round the
corner by Mitchell s. Lynde's bank to meet
the st. Louis train last evening, the pole
struck passer in the face and knocked
him down, infiicting painful if not serious
wound. The hack came over the crossing
on the run as usual, with the result as
above. The driver was not wholly to
blame for the accident, but such rapid and
reckless driving ought to be prohibited,
else similar and more serious accidents are
likely to happen at any time" His atten
ton having been called to the matter Mr..
Miller requests the ARGUS to state that not
one of the drivers in his employ had any
thing of that kind happen to him.

THE VOICE OF THE SYLVAN BLUES

The Union this morning publishes let.
ter from the Stars, of Rock Island, which
for audacity and check could not be egna
ed. They say they are well aware that
they play the Sylvans they will have to
contest against from six to eight of he
Moline Blues" Now this is fabrication
of the worst kind, as only one Of the Oh
nine of Blues will play with them. and
there ne0er has been more than three in any
of the games played by the Sylvans this
fall. They also say they have beaten the
Blues three times and the Sylvans once,
and that the Blues have heated them four
times. Now let us play the ninth and
deciding game on the hopfeld grounds.
Well, that's cool. The Boys in Blue have
heated them four out of six games, the
seventh being unfinished on account oi
rain, and now they want to play the ninth
and deciding game. Well, for pure
and unadulterated check that takes the
lead. The Stars waited until the Blues
had disbanded and then they, in an under
handed way, talk about playing them
again. If they are so anxious for game
with the "Blues" why don't they come out
like men and say so, and not try to lead
people to infer as much through thelFSf
Dan-Blue challenge, and then they v"
reorganize and give the Stars chance 70
doom them, or if, as has been demonstrate
they do not want to tackle them, then Ae
Sylvans will give them a chance to e''"
them as they term it, with only one MAI
who formerly belonged to the Blues, even
if they (the Stars) do have half OF the Red
Stockings nine, of Coal Valley. Moline
has always treated the r. l. nine on us
square, and all they ask is the same ue''
ment in retarn.

Somewhat Above.

If the gag law had applied at the
carouse in Lexington, aud not to the
Legislature yesterday, the A. n M.
College tax would have been repeal
ell. The friends of the tax refused to
submit to vote of the people, and
shrewdly declined to expose il to the
scrutiny Of debate. They are adopts
in the art of lobbying, and their meth
DDS proved as effective with the con-
ceited ROSTERS of the crossroads as
with the politicians of the pot-house.
But, fortunately, property'holders
have a refuge and a shield in the
courts. and no man can be robbed
outright without the approval of the
Judge and a verdict Of the jury. The
tax can not stand the test to which II
must yet be submitted, and tax-pay
ers may be congratulated that the
material ON the bench is somewhat

The LOBBY at Frankfort.

The Frankfort correspondent Of the
Louisville Commercial writes Of the
lobby at Frankfort, and describes its
mode of operation: Nobody who
knows anything of legislation would
accuse a member of being bribed by
these men. OF course il is not i'm
possible to bride a legislator, but the
thing is reached in a different way.
Your sensible lobbyist would no more
think of offering a Kentucky gentle
man a bride than he would of running
his hand in the fire. He goes at it in
much different way. He gives a
wine supper. He has excellent cigars.
He gets on a high old drunk with a
doubtful man, and they paint the town
red together. He is a good anecdote
teller, none better, and the first thing
your member knows he is voting for a
bill he at first bitterly opposed. This,
of course, refers to the average men,
