IN ABOUT ten days the candidate will be calling very frequently on his party paper with strong points against his opponent. The candidate will urge the editor of his party paper to publish the points.
 The editor is liable to gaze upon the candidate with an inquisitive gaze which assayed might mean, "yes, that is so, but how much is there in it?"
 The candidate may then find out that the editor has discovered that it don't pay to abuse his neighbors just because they belong to the ether party.
 For the editor knows that after the campaign is over he will have to pack all the mud alone that he has shovel ed during the campaign, if it was not shoveled at the right candidate.
 The delegates to the Territorial Convention will not nominate il man from this county for the office of dele gate to Congress.

Jacksonville, like other cities, is blessed
with host of impecunious or close listed
individuals, who are never known to sub
scribe for or buy daily paper, yet who
manage to read those paid for by others,
and in doing so they cause no little ans
noyance. They will alight on some bus
mess man in the morning and monopollze
the Journal frequently before he has read
it himself, and when noon comes they are
On hand to sobble up the St. Louis papers.
The later publications share the same
fate. so that by night these leeches are
quite well filled at other peoples expense.
We know of several business men who
| declare they have stopped their papers
rather than be annoyed by these persist
ent spongers. 1t is all well enough to oc-
casionally look over paper in business
house, but to make practice of 1t is an
| ntolerable nuisance. Jacksonville jour
nal.
Rock Island is blessed with some of the
same kind. Yes and the worst thing
about it is that it is that very class wht
always do the most talking about the use
lessness and general inutility of the local
press They always can tell of somt
other city in which the paper is so muei
| better and contains so much more of the
news. Nine times out of ten you car
spot these spongers by the amount Of
grunbling they do about the inefficiency
of the no me papers.

Their Rig at The station,

Two young men from Davenport, came
over to this city to visit friends last
night, and left their horse from until
II in front of Il house on Eighteenth
street. Tue animal was persplrinG terribly
and at last three of tue citizens In that
end of the town. whose attention had
been attracted by the condition of the
horse, telephoned TO the police, and the
rio was taken to the station. Later when
the young men came out and inquired
about it, they were told that the police
had charge of their rig. They had no
difficulty in recovering it, but it is to be
hoped that the incident will serve as a
lesson as cruelty to animals.

REFRESHING RAIN.
This Mornings Delightful shower,
ATrue Blessing.

After three days of incessant and terri
fic heat-and the promise OF another
dark threatening clouds appeared in the
northwest this morning, at IL O'Clock
which indicated storm and no mistake.
Merchants rushed to get IN their exhibits
and people hurried in the direction OF
home. fearing severe disturbance of the
elements was to occur. At 1890 the
wind came "a perfect whrlwind, blowing
from all points of the compass at once,
and filling the streets with binding and
impenetrable dust. After ten minutes,
duration the wind ceased, and the rain
came; one of those grand old fashioned
rains we have read about.
The dust, which has been an uueon-
querable pest for weeks. was laid low,
and on the lawns the grass which has
been gradually perishing for some time,
fairly sprouted from the ground to wei
come the stranger. What there was OF
the rain was just what was wanted; 6
considerable larger quantity would have
done no harm. but for what we have had
we should be truly thankful
The wind which preceded the rain il
said TO have done heavy damage in thu
vicinity of Iowa City, but with the excep
ton of few fallen bill boards, signs
etc, no harm was done in this neighbor-
hood

during her service in the Rock Island
schools, proved herself one of the most
efficient and faithful of teachers, and in
her change of position our schools will
sustain severe loss, but the Davenport
board pay her larger salary for the
same work, and it Is natural that she
should accept. 1t would be better fol
our school board to increase her salary in
order to keep her, even if it becomes
necessary to deduct from the less deserv'
ing teachers. 1t will be much easier tC
supply many of the other positions than

Tsed to Cheap Boarding

A hoosier from way back, with hand
organ came in from somewhere on Il train
last night, entered Harper house bus
and was driven to that hotel, and, pay
ing the driver the usual amount-twenty-
five cents-was shown to room. After
breakfast this morning he arranged Tor
departure when Night Clerk McHugh
presented him with his bill for lodging and
breakfast He disputed the amount, on
the ground that he had paid the bus
driver for rYthing After McHugh
had persuaded him to pay up in full, he
wanted to contribute the equivalent in
music upon his hand organ; but McHugh,
having tender feeling for the guests of
the house, refused, and the stranger tinal-
IL left, evidently disguised TO think the
quarter he paid the bus driver did not
entitle him to lodging and boarding at
the hotel. He has gone to Peoria.

There seems to be much satisfaction
expressed among the business men and
laboring people over the nomination of
Sharp Silvis for sheriff. While conced-
ing the fact that his opponent is gentle
man and all that, nearly everybody
recognizes that Silvs is a man of the
people He has always enjoyed the full
confidence of all who knew him, and
being. thoroughly acquainted with the
citizens of the county and the duties of
the office he is the best calculated to give
satisfaction as an officer. Mr.. Silvis ma
rely on the hearty support of the MAORI
ty vote of the farmers, the merchants
and the laboring men Moline Chimes.
The Chimes is independent in politics
and the above favorable notice OF MIR
Silvis is an illustration of the opinion out
side the democratic party IN regard to
him
