RAILROADS.

1t is the prevailing opinion in Chicago
that the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific
railroad company will soon gain control of
the Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis and
Omaha. The purchase of thissroad by the
Rock Island explains why Vice-President
Gable recently secured about all the stock
of the Chicago, Portage and Superior line.
and also why he received such strong sup
port from the Chicago, st. Paul, Minneap
oils and Omaha road, which has for long
time been after the Portage and Superior
line The loss of the st. Paul and Omaha
will prove serious blow to the North
western railroad, as it is one of their most
valuable feeders. If the sale goes through,
the Rock Island will gain 1880 miles of
road

IMPORTANT ARREST.

Officer bunker made very important
arrest this afternoon at tie Union House in
the person of young man who gave his
name as James Martin. On his person
was found an ugly looking revolver, a
knife used by GLACIERS, some silk handker-
chiefs and other articles supposed to be

that during the morning Martin sold to
w Jayvine, clerk in d. o. Reds store
at Moline, an open face gold watch which
has been identified as the time piece
stolen from FL. C. Cleveland's residence
yesterday morning. Martin stated to Jay
vine that he was hard up and needed the
money, and for that reason he would
pawn the watch for So. He finally con-
sented to part with it for $3.50, with the
understanding that he would call for it in
about a week. Jayvine took the watch
to jewelry store and learned that it was
worth more than the amount advanced up
on it. The Rock Island police learn
ed of the transaction and he was arrested
tin had disappeared. A lookout was kept
up for the suspicious party, and during the
afternoon officer bunker saw party at the
Union house in this city that attracted his
suspicion. He arrested him at once, and
on searching him at the station, the articles
above described were found in his posses
sion.
Subsequently Martin was identified by
Jayvine as the party who sold him the
watch during the morning.
Martin is a young mar about 20 years
old, smoothly shaven face, black hair and
eyes, and has the peculiar expression that
eharacterizes the cnterprising burlar. |

Mr. Warnock on the sanitary license sys-
tenn. Mr. Battles is engaged in the grocery
business. and is regarded as candidate in
every way worthy of the votes of his party
as well as the public generally. His cleo
ton is claimed by those most familiar with
the political complexion of the First Ward.
The knowing ones on both sides of the
political fence have asserted that the fol-
lowing will be the result of the election
next Tuesday: Battles in the First
with Warnock good second, Dodge in
the Second, Mott in the Third, johnson in
the Fourth, WEIGH in the Fifth. Reimers
or Hughes in the Sixth and Hull in the
Seventh. The general verdict so far has
been that the democrats have placed the
best ticket in the field, and that the can
of all persons who desire an honest, eco
nomical government.
The third party business in Rock Island
has collapsed. as evidenced by the failure
to make nominations in the different Wards
last evening The better class of the third
party have returned to the two peorgani-
cations that are of national Importance.
TOO small or not too small,
that is the political question:;
whether it is more popular to allow the
filth to accumulate on the public streets
and the germs of disease and death to be
propagated, or to vote for a sanitary license
and by such opposition end the mortality
record, is something that I am too tumble
to answer without consulting my political
sponsor. Whether it pays to be politi
cal demagogue and talk about the poor
man, or to be an honests outspoken human
creature, is something am trying to find
out. My answer viii depend upon the
votes cast next Tuesday. / will be true to

CAUTION.

All remedial agents capable destroying life by
an overdose should be avoided. Morphine, opium,
strychnine, arnica, hyosciamus and other power
ful remedies, does at certain times, in very small
doses relieve the patient during their action in the
system. But perhaps the second dose, il repeated,
may aggravate and increase the suffering, and an
other dose cause death. There IL no necessity for
using these uncertain agents when d positive rem
