THE SENATORIAL TOGA.
The Fiat f:as Gone Forth That no Bu-
collie Statesman shall be chosen.

collie Statesma an shall be chosen.
The Union is at last happy; il has sue
ceeded in bringing out an avowed candi-
date for state senator against the two
EdsiDgton aspirants for that honorable
position. The gentleman is w. r. Moore,
the Moline attorney, whom it extols in
the following manner:
Mr. Moore has come to be recognized
as one of the foremost lawyers of mis-
city, and his friends are fully justified in
believing that he would represent the dis
trlct in the senate with ability and credit.
He has filed the Office OF city attorney,
and has built up good professional prac
tice, while as the president of the Moline
Central Street Railway Co. he represents
the practical pushers who have done such
a wonderful work in developing the pos,
sibilities of the bluff region by means of
rapid trsnsit-electric cars. MIR. Moore
has aspired to 60 to the general assembly
several times before and was shut out by
geographical considerations, which now
seem to shape more favorably.
But the Union evidently proposes not to
place its whole reliance on Mr.. Moores
ability to shelve Messrs. Crawford and
Cozad. 1t has other senatorial timber in
view in case the Moline attorney doesn't
develop sufficient strength. when he will
be asked to withdraw, and throw his
strength 10 such Rock Island candidate
as the city ringsters may designate. The
Union has two gentlemen in view which
it expects to use in such an emergency.
They are VIM. Jackson and Gen. W. A.
Schmitt, either of whom intimstes that
the nomination wouldn't be refused il
rendered
Although the ARGUS has maintained
from the first that the city politicians
would never allow the senatorial nomin'
alton to wander down into Edgington in
search for keeper. still they actually
made Messrs. Crawford and CoZid be
lieve that there would be no other candi'
dates Let them not coddle that flatter-
ing opinion any longer. The city bosses
have shown their hand, and we would
advise Messrs Crawford and CoZid tC
bury the Ratchet and pool their issues.

he wanted TO fight TO the death
He Presents Some statistics
Mr. Spalding said that the average at
tendance at League games during the
last two or three years was 800. while
this year it had been but l .0iO for the last
thirteen games of both the aggregatiDns.
Said he: without allowing for the large
complimentary list and the 25-cent admIs-
sion, and estimating it at 80 cents per
head, the total receipts of the last thir-
teen National league games in the four
best cities of the country amounted to
1883, or $3.50 per game, or s29l per club
as againsy 81, 5ai9 for the last fourteen
Brotherhood games, or S46s per game OF
S2Si per club. These receipts barely pa

that it should be stamped by government
whose credit is umimpeachable and which
has the power of making money. The
money issued is not intended to ac-
commodate the farmer alone, but as it
comes into circulation it will put the
means of prosperity within the reach of
those vino are engaged in the smaller and
larger industries of the country The bill
provides for what may, perhaps, not inn
properly be termed a revolution in finance,
and do not expect that it will be adopted
