For Sheriff

Friends of. the Rev. A. r. Morgan IN
Moline and Rock Island have urged him
to enter the field as a candidate for
sheriff, and he is seriously considering it.
Elder Morgan would certainly make a
strong candidate; we hear of none men
toned for the republican nomination who
could gather in the votes he would. He
is strong with church people throughout
the county. is prominent Grand Army
man. and has the benefit of being well
known in all sections The Elder has
been incapacitated for the pulpit by
failing health, the physicians have ad-
vised change, and the sympathies of
our people would go out TO him. There
is no question hut what he would make
an excellent officer, and if he consents
to run would make it interesting for any
opponent Moline Republican.
The ministerial brother hal better
cleave to his religious duties. We fear
he will make mistake in entering the
political field. He will not find it an easy
road to travel. He will realize that it is
less difficult to stand in the pulpit and
exhort the people to forsake Satan, than
to 60 out among the byways and hedges
in search of votes. Ia fact the repub
lican nomination will be no sinecure
The man who is selected To head the re
publican forces this fall will discover that
he is leading forlorn hope. If brother
Morgan's health is not robust. he had
better not undertake it.

blows.
Frank Buffum was sworn. Witness

him as if he was on friendly terms with
Brookman. Grant had said that he would

Hon James PaddelforJ of Clea veland
Henry county. was in the city TO day
Mr.. Paddelford at present represents the
twenty first senatorial district in the
lower branch of the state legislature,
having been elected on the democratic
ticket two years ago. The ARGUS has
heard repeated conjectures as to whether
to Mr.. Paddelford was candidate this
year or not, and learned from him thai
he was. This will practically settle the
representative question as far as the
democracy is concerned. as the general
feeling is that Henry county should have
another term and as Nc, Paddelford is
her chosen son, his nomination is vir.
tually conceded He has represented The
district fairly, intelligently and honestly,
and should therefore be returned TO the
house for another term.
