GENERAL BOULANGER.

The Government win Arrest and Prosecute
Him for Plotting Against the State.
The Senate, to-day, by a vote Of 2O7 to 63,
passed the bill constituting itself high
court of justice in cases of plots against the
state. The bill will come up i'll the Cham
Der of Deputies tomorrow. The govern
ment intends, upon the passage of the
measure, to apply it to General BOulanger.
The government has decided to prosecute
BouIanger Immediately, and will probably
begin proceedings tomorrow.
The National intimates that but for def
erence to Nj. De Freycinet and other luke
warm Ministers General Boulanger would
have already been arrested General BOu-
LANCER, in an interview, declared that the
government were insane, otherwise they
would see that their action would only
frustrate the end they have in view. He
had never committed an illegal act; he had
done everything. openly. Therefore, prose-
cutiOn would only result in sympathy for
the martyr. Had he committed the slight
est illegality, he admits that case could
be made, but he defies all the lawyers in
the world to find anything against him.
Therefore, the rumOred action against him
would only mean further triumph for the
National party.

promise and glory for the best interests of
mankind
Mr.. Gladstone resumed his seat amid SUBJ
dued cheering.
Lord Harrington referred to the words of
Gladstone as fully expressive of the vener-
alton of the country for the memory of Mr..
Bright He said that Mr.. Bright was not
statesman versed in the arts of govern
ment, and capable of conducting the CON-
plicated affairs of a great nation. 1t was
the high standard of his political conduct.
and the intensity of his convictions that
gave his eloquence unrivaled force.
Justin Mccarthy, who. in the absence of
Mr.. Parnell, spoke for the Irish party, as
sociated their sentiments with those ex-
pressed in the noble speech of Mr.. Glad
stone. He said that the memory of the
Irish people endured, and it carried them
back to the time when Mr.. Bright cham
pioned their cause. He, therefore, claimed
the right of Ireland to lay an immortelle
upon the great Englishman's grave.
Mr.. Chamberlain spoke of his acquaint-
ance with Mr.. Bright for thirty years. He
said that, throughout his political life. Mr..
Bright's relations toward his electors were
those of entire independence, Mr.. Bright
holding that his services conferred an OBJ
legation upon the constituency.

The trial OF Carl Range for disorderly

He took an appeal. States Attorney

the facts of the case to be that Range
was i'll on one of his accustomed visits to
the Richmond place in South Rock Isl
land last Sunday. The young lady, AL
pha Turner, whom he had called to see
asked him to stay all night. lie had
done so before, and Alpha's mother said
he might on that occasion. Mr..
Roswell Richmond, who is Al

and coming into the house during the
evening. and finding Range had retired,
said he would hitch up his horse and
drive him home If he was sick. Mrs.
Richmond declared he should remain,
and dispute arose in the hall. during
which angry words were exchanged and
Mr.. Richmond said something about
criminal intimacy between Range and
Alpha Turner. Range heard the re-
mark and emerging from his room called
Richmond very insulting name, and
told him he would bite the dust" for
his accusations. Richmond then went
out and got several neighbors to
help put Range out, and it is
said also, f1ourished knife, but
nothing finally came of it and Range
left the house. 1t seems to be case

IMPROVING THE RIVERS.

what Is Necessary for the Mississippi
Its Immense BENEFITS co Towns
Along Hts shores.
The subject of the improvement of the
Mississippi river is being taken up and
discussed by the papers of the upper river
cities whenever the opportunity offers.
The st. Paul Pioneer Press, after COM
menting upon the work accomplished by
the waterways convention recently held
at West Superior, states that there are
two great objects of the first importance
which the friends of internal improve
ments must accomplish in this section,
because there are two great water routes
of undeniable national character These
are the improvement Of the Mississippi
and of the great lake route.
The two works ought to go hand in
hand. They alone are truly contine ntal
in their scope and in their influence upon
commerce. The Mississippi has been the
salvation of our interior communities.
Not only has it made freight rates on the
north and south lines of transportation,
but. by affording water connection with
different and numerous rail routes east
and west at their intersections with its
course, it has made them effective COM
petitors for the same business. and kept
down the western portion of the through
rate to the Atlantic sea.board. 1t mat
tiers not whether its broad expanse be
covered with water craft OF with water
fowl; for it has and exercises. in either
case, the enormous and beneficient power
of regulator of freight rates.

The March or Improvement.

The progress of the Second avenue
pavement continues westward without
interruption. There has been considera-
BILE fault finding and meddling with the
way the work is being done, and some
have gone so far as to bore holes between
the bricks with their canes. This latter
act of vandalism is not only very dis
couraging. but aggrsvating to the con-
tractors. and they would be fully war
ranted in having any one arrested who
should be apprehended of such an act.
As To the manner 10 which Atkinson &
Oloff are conducting the pavement the
ARGUS has no comments to make further
than that the work, as far as it has gone,
looks very nice. The city hires not only
a mayor. but an expert inspector to see
that it is done according to specification
and contract. They know their duty, OF
should at least. and they alone are re-
sponsible for the work.
The curling is being laid in advance OF
the pavement as rapidly as possible. and
the poles have now all been moved in
side the curbing. including the one in
front Of ]. & M. Rosenield's saddlery
and leather house. over which dispute
was raised. Mayor McConochie and
Chairman Hampton, of the street and
alley committee, ordered the pole re-
moved and instructed Marshal Miller to
see that it was done right. Manager
Johnston. of the Brush company. sent a
force of men around to do it under the
