The executive committee for the enter
tainment of the Army of the Tennessee,
held a meeting in the parlors of the
Harper house last evening, with DIR. Pat
rick Gregg in the chair, and Col. Henry
Egbert, of Davenport. secretary. A par
tial list of toas,s and responses for the
banquet night was submitted, but being
incomplete i. was deemed prudent to sus
pend definite action until another meet,
ing shall be held. All indications point
to the meeting as one of the greatest ami
most imposing events Rock Island has
ever seen. Surviving leaders in the civil
strife from all over the county have sig
nified their purpose to be present.

Help the Cause.

Every American citizen in Rock Island
and lover of liberty and self government,
should take pleasure IN contributing to
the Gladstone and Parnell home rule fund
which is being raised by the local
branch of the Irish National league. The
different ward committees have made a
very thorough canvas, but there are some
who have not been seen. AS the election
is now progressing, the time is very short
in which pecuniary assistance can be
given, and those who wish to donate
something for the cause should do so al
once. Deputy Sheriff Silvis subscribed
s. at the ARGUS Office yesterday. Who
will be the next TO initiate his example
No matter how small the sum is it will be
received cheerfully by the committees

journed to the gas house, where the can,
celled vouchers were burned.
This meeting will probably close the
proceedings of the present school
board. The next meeting will be
the annual one. The board has
held eighteen meetings during the
past year, which averages one aud a
half In the month. and there were only
two of these meetings where there was d

4 Howl.

Evidently this city contains all the men
truly great in the republican party in this
county. We arrive at this conclusion
from the fact that-if present Indications
are not deceiving-the city will furnish
the larger portion of the republican ticket
for the coming election. In fact Rock
Island proposes that Moline and the rest
of the county shall act as the tail to its kite.
The concentration of all the candidates
from one locality is not calculated to have
a harmonious effect, and for some time
we have been looking for a remonstrance.
And here it is as witness the following
howl emitted by the Moline Republican.
which is beginning to see that Rock Island
intends raking in all the plums:
We find confirmation in the Union of
today of the rumOr that Oliver Olsen of
Rock Island will be candidate for the
republican nomination for the legislature.
Personally Mr. Olsen is capable and ener.
getic, would make good legislator, and
there is no objection to him on that score
but it Is httle unfortunate for him,
perhaps that, Rock Island city, polling
tritle more than one fourth of
the republican vote, has already
conceded" to herself every dead sure "
| county Office. leaving to Moline, which
casts tritie less than one-tourth OF the
vote, the only position for which no
| Rock Islander cared to contest, and leav
ing rural towns in the county casting
one-half the total vote, nothing. Be-
sides the county offices to FILL there is a
member of the legislature to be elected.
Considered by itself this place belongs
by right to rural towns, or to Moline.
Unless Mr.. Olsen can persuade his Rock
Island friends TO relinquiSh some of their
concessions" he can hardly hope to
win.
The position for which no Rock Is
lander cared to contest is the sheriffalty
of course. But there is even no sure
thing that Moline will get that. OF
course the parson is doing his level best
but he is as innocent as babe unborn
of the ways of the politician. and his
labor may all 90 for naught. Moline had
the senator last year, but Rock Island is
even reaching out its NAV for that. VIZ
generally sympathze with the troubled
aud afflicted but in this case we say ''sic
EN-, Towser."

A Big Day For steamboats---Oth
News Along Shore.

Nt"5 2AAVhS 'oAAOAC'
AIRED LETTER DAY.
Yesterday was red letter day at the
river for steamboats,. No less then eigh-
teen touched landing at this point during
the day and evening 1t gave the shore
metropolitan appearance and brought
to the minds of the veteran steamboat
men on the ferry Spencer. the scenes OF
twenty and thirty years ago. when bust
ness was brisk at the levee and the rail-
roads which now traverse the country in
all directions had not deprived the boats
of large portion of their traffic. Though
the majority of yesterdays boats were
rafters, each one enlivened things at the
