MUCH CAUSE FOR COMPLAINT.
The Peddler Nuisance should be sup
pres-ed-One case OF Suspicion.

The PeddIer Nuisance should be sup
pres-ed-One case OF suspicion.
The ARGUS few days since spoke of
a vigorous and systematic warfare being
carried on by large number of the ps.
pers of Illinois on the class IF itinerants
known as peddlers. and suggested the
idea OF the Rock Island council taking
some action that would not only afford
measure of protection against this class,
not only to the people themselves, but to
the established merchants who naturally
suffer as a result OF the house to house
visits. The peddler is an sbominsble
nuisance and in the great majority of
cases he or she shows disposition of
cheek and impudence that is very annoy
ing to the housewife. OF lac woman
has been going through the residence
portions of Rock Island and has made
herself liable to arrest in many instances
practice to enter without knocking,
while her manner OF scrutiniZlng every.
thing has more than once aroused the
suspicion that her mission might he
something other than simply peddling.
At any rate, she has made herself q
nuisance. and will probably get the best
of all the bargains she makes.
Tricks are allowable in all trades, but il
is not necessary either in the interests Of
society or commerce that am considers>
ton be shown the peddler. A high
license should be imposed upon these
transient merchants.

Having Hard Luck,

Apparently the most censurable thing
the Holmes syndicate has done since its
advent into Rock Island is to revive the
few old cheese boxes that unfortunately
were not in the Moline avenue barn when
it was destroyed last spring. But the
reason for this action is explained in the
fact that the company has been the vic.
tim Of misplaced confidence. As long
ago as last June. Supt. Schnitger placed
an order with the Laclede Car company
of st. Louis, for nineteen new cars. W hich
as per condition of the contractor, were
to have been ready for shipment Oct. 10.
Later. word came that the cars could not
be gotten out until the first of the press
emit month, so crowded were the works;
but the first of the month came and
the cars are not here. In the last stage
of desperation. Mr.. Schnitger ordered
out what there were left of the old rat
tletraps to relieve as many of the open
cars on the old line as possible until the
new ones shall arrive. A new car for the
Union branch is expected over from
Davenport tonight and another will be
over toward the last Of the week. These
with the new cars provided q year ago
will complete the service on this line and
leave the old route to be supplied by the
cars which have been so long expected.
Mr.. Schnitger has a promise that the
bridge line cars will be shipped this
week, and that the others will be for
warded during the month as fast as pos>
sible.
The car works have by their failure to
comply with the conditions of the order,
not only put the Holmes people to the
annoyance of being unable to provide for
comfort OF their patrons on the old line,
but prevented the Inauguration of the
Elm street line. for want OF cars.
While the new cars will be in every way
first class. the delay Is very unpleasant
and probably as much so to the railway
company as to anyone, but il Is a guess
ton if the public would not in the mean
time prefer to shiver in the open cars to
seeing the old relics brought to the sur-
face again. They are disgrace to
wideawake community.

Vertigo Caused by Nicotine.

NJ. Decaisne has laid before the
French Academy of Medicine the re-
suits of various Investigations relating
to the vertigo peculiar to smokers.
From this it appears that the numer-
GUS experiments made in this line have
proved that nicotine contracts the
muscular coat of the vessels, and that
vertigo is due to the exaggerated con-
traction of the arteries of the brain
the patient experiences q feeling Of
emptiness in the head, so much so that
he seems as if about to faint, every
thing turning around and his ideas be-
coming confused. M. Decaisne has
further ascertained that these phe-
nomena are chiefly found in smokers
above fifty years of age. and especial
~ in those habitually accustomed to
smoking before meals; he has also
known several of these persons to be
treated for cerebral congestion, and
even for disease of the heart. with the
result, as might be supposed. of in
creasing the symptoms, the proper
treatment consisting in absolute alb
stention from the weed. and some
slight laxative with bitters-N. Y.

All But the Ballot.

A woman will neither lose nor forget
her womanhood anywhere. if she has
its graces and elements within her. And
if she stands behind her own counter.
she will not be as open to insult
from coarse men as if the clerks for an
other. If she must visit banks, law
yers' Offices. the courtroom. the hos
pital, or meet with school boards, her
ability and womanhood will always
command respect. If she is the unfor-
tunate wife of victim to disease or ap-
petite, and she assumes the support OF
her family and remains faithful unto
death-even though she sews and
scrubs, ploughs the field. gathers the
harvests, and fills the place of both
father and mother-she is a woman.
and noble one. the world says. Shall
she lose her womanliness if she speaks
by the little white ballot against the sa-
loon that has ruined her earthly home
and defrauded her life of its sweetness?
Shall not the brave captains wife, who
in times of emergency assumes control
of her husbands ship and safely sails
into harbor, have a voice as to whether
her sailor boy. endeared to her by the
sharing of common danger of the ele-
ments. shall be protected against hui
man pitfalls spread for his sea-going
feet the moment he swings clear of the

Give Her q Chanca

In reply to the question as to whether
she would vote or not, Grace Green
wood recently said:
THE Duke of Argyll, whom I re-
member once to have seen superbly
overshadowed by his magnificent moth
er-in-law, the Duchess Of Sutherland,
though himself fair specimen of pro-
gressive manhood, is sternly conserve
tive womanward. In lecture, some
twenty years ago. he was gracious
enough to deliver before a mechanics
institute, he said. "A woman has no
right to appear upon a platform except
when she is about to be hung; then it
is unavoidable This smart saying
caused great hilarity among his
grace's audience, little wit from a
nobleman going a great way. l used
to quote that sentence in lecture l
was bold enough to deliver from many
a platform. and it always brought a
laugh-at woman's expense-but then,
again. my comment on it. though not
particularly smart never failed to
bring generous applause, and this COM
ment was: The freedom of the scat
fold. the CHASTITY equality of the gal
lows. SO graciously accorded to women
by the Duke of Argyll. is not enough.
Give her fair swing at life as we'll as
death; let her have voice at least in
the selection Of the men who make and
administer the laws under which wo-
men may be taxed, divorced, deprived
of her children. imprisoned. tried and
hung That was my sentiment twenty
years ago; it is mine to-day. and l pro-
pose to stand by it. Would l vote If l
could? Yea, verily."
