THE CANAL.

The New York Tribane gives the Hen
pepin canal the following notice:
1t is difficult to see how it ever came to
have any standing at all IN congress, for
the government had nothing at all to do
with it. If the canal is to be built, the
state of Illinois should build and pay for
it, in the same way that the state of New
York built and paid for the Erie canal. 1t
is purely a local Improvement, designed
mainly for the commercial benefit of Chi
cago It's advocates claim that if it is
built it viii be found to be q remunerative
investment If this is SO there are CAPT
talists enough in Illinois who will be glad
30 pay the expenses. Good investments
are what they are looking for. But there
seems to be difference of opinion on this
point The project, which is many years
old, was brought before the Illinois consti-
tutional convention in 1870, and that body
adopted an amendment by a vote of forty
nine to eleven, prohibiting the state,
through its legislature, from ever voting
to loan its credit to build this canal, and
by vote of thirty-eight to twenty five
prohibited the appropriation of dollar
for the purpose. The people of the state
ratified the amendment by vote of more
than five to one. Now congress is asked
to pay for a job which the people for
whose benefit it is intended decline to take
up on their own account The govern
ment has nothing to do with enterprises of
this sort If this bill were passed it would
become precedent for legion of similar
ones, from every state in the union. The
only thing to do with il is to kill it, and
end this raid on the treasury before it be-

A TRYING PERIOD.

It sometimes takes long while to get
well, and nothing is more trying to a per-
SON of active temperament than the enfore-
ed leisure incidental to the period of
convalescence. Nothing, on the other
hand. is so well calculated to abridge that
period as the use of the Liebig Malt Elk
tract As restorative, it is unsurpassed,
possessing the most nutritive, as wen as
stimulating properties, and containing none
but the E1nost wholesome ingredients. Il
is, in fact, pure concentrated fluid Elk
tract of Malt. as pleasant to the taste as it
is agreeable to the stomach, and is just the
thing to revive the appetite. strengthen the
digestion, and replenish the depleted reser
voirs of mental and physical energy.

first supposed
It was of short duration, but while in
progress was most severe.
In the afternoon the storm clouds visit
ed sections east of this city, and at night
made things lively in this immediate local
ity.
The fence enclosing the fair grounds
south of this city, was badly demoralized
by the wind, and several lengths of that
structure were blown to the ground.
The loss is estimated to be in the neigh
borhood of $500, as the stables were also
partially DESTROYED.

OLD TROUBLES.


The Prairie Chief, of Cambridge, has
the following sensible remarks about the
democratic disagreement over the minority
representativ es in the legislature.
We are sorry to see the old fight of 1876
between some democrats of Henry and
Rock Island counties, is again renewed
with increased animosity. There is only
one little chicken for The two counties to
scratch for. but they go into it with as
much vigor as though there was chance
to elect all the officers to be voted for
Rock Island county has the minority rep
resentative now, and if they want to com
pliment him with reelection, there is no
good reason why they should not be per-
mitted to do So In 1884, they would
have nothing to say, and would naturally
do their share to elect any man Henry
county might select. And then two years
later, Henry county would have the right
to re-elect their man or any other they felt
disposed to. If Rock Island county wants
the representative another term let them
have it, and let Henry county try the SEN
ator once. This would probably be salts
factory to our Rock Island friends, and
there is no valid reason why such a course
should not be pursued. The Chief is OPP
posed to all boss rule, whether in the re-
publican. democratic or greenback parties.
1t has never been controlled by bosses and
it never viii be. If the democrats want to
elect the minority member they must avoid
all quarrels among themselves If this
thing goes on as it is running now, the
chances are that the democratic candidate
will be left at home, as he was in 1878 If
such thing happens this year, the re-
sponsibility will rest with those who claim
TO own the democrats of Henry county.
We hope a halt may be called in this Bit
ter fight, and harmony and good feeling
may prevail.

STREET CAR LINE.

The ordinance committee of the council
refused to draft an ordinance granting the
Rock Island and Milan street car company
the right of way from the bridge approach
down Third avenue to Ninth street, but
switched them off on Fourth avenue at
Nineteenth street.
In consequence of this fact the new road
will probably commence at the ferry land
ing and will run south on Seventeenth
street to Fourth avenue, and thence down
to Ninth street. The council Monday
night however may change the proposed
route

DIR. Truesdale closed by endorsing the
resolutions, and stating his belief that they
should be passed.
r. G. T. MCNEIL
followed in brief speech. He commenced
by stating that his understanding of the
case now under discussion was that of the
Rock Island Ferry company vs. the people
He wished to state that he was in favor of
the people.
He understood the reasons that actuated
the members of the Ferry company in Sc
cnring the bill, but the Ferry company
could not blame the people for protesting
against such legislation. He ridiculed the
idea that the members of the Ferry COM
uany were ignorant of the bill until it was
given in the public press, and stated that
it was his belief that the managers of that
company must have known something
about the bill before it was introduced
into congress- He criticized the reasons
assigned by the secretary OF war for favor
ing the passage of the bill, and demon
strated that the reasons were not based on
actual facts.
j. NJ. RosENFIELD
stated that the present bill was not new
measure, as the same attempt had been
made when the bridge was first con-
structed At that time Capt. Robinson
acknowledged that he had been instru-
mental in securing such bill. Capt.
Robinson explained his conduct by stating
that he attempted to secure tax to help
Rock Island merchants, thereby insinu-
ating that the Rock Island merchants
were sleepy heads requiring protection.
The speaker was opposed to the bill
LOUIS MAY
next followed in a few remarks favoring
the resolution. He denounced as false
hood the statement that the Rock Island
merchants were in favor of the toll bill.
He thought that the city merchants could
sell as cheaply as Davenport merchants. and
fol. one he was opposed to the bill, and OPP
posed to such astatement as had been made.
At the conclusion of the remarks Of
Mr. May, the resolutions above given were
unanimously passed.
Russell H. Curtis moved that the chair
appoint committee of five to draft re-
monstrance against the proposed toll bill,
which protest should be sent to the repre-
sentatives in congress with the resolutions.
The chair appointed the following COM
mittee: Russell I'll. Curtis, w. n. Gest DR..
Truesdale, H. G. Connolly. r. t. McNew;
after which the meeting adjourned.
