The Union publishes with apparent sat-
iSfaction the announcement that Post,
master Howard Wells has returned from
Chicago, where he attended the Meeting
OF the republican state central committee
at the Grand Pacific hotel, and where the
panicky condition of the Eleventh
district came n for large share of at
tention, naturally enough. Boss Wells
undoubtedly saved his powder until he
got home when he blew into the ear of
the Union and as a result that sheet
comes out with the announcement that
DR.. Truesdale, of this city, made speech
eulogistic of Congressman Gest, "his
faithful and telling work" the unerr-
ing safety of The Eleventh district to the
republicans, which with Gest as a candi.
date, the republicans could easily carry
again DR.. Truesdale generally looks
upon the happy side of life and he is able
to make the best of things, but notwith-
standing this, he did not make any such
statements as Boss Wells has been stuff
ing the forlorn Eighteenth street concern
with. The doctor thinks too much of his
reputation for political common sense
and foresight tosmake any such breaks.
What DR.. Truesdale did really say APP
pears in todsy's Chicago Herald. Here it
is:
For the Eleventh district DIR. Calvin
TruesdaIe, o. Rock Island. took the floor
and proceeded to dampen the aTdOr of
his hearers by telling them that the Eievs
en- tn was doubtful district. Still, he
Thought" it could be carried by Gest and
he would ad wise his denomination. 1t was
i'll trading horses crossing a stream. and
considering how close the district is it
would be safer to stick to the old capdi-
date.
II there is much happiness or enthusi-
asm in that statement the average man
will have difficulty in discerning it. If
it isn't practical acknowledgment of the
critical condition of affairs that the re-
publicans find in the Eleventh district, j,
isn't anything.
But by the way. isn't Boss Wells show
ing a reckless disregard for civil service
rules in neg Getting his duties here to at
tend political meetings2 He doesn't draw
80, 500 out Of the public treasury annu'
ally for anv such business. He is mo-
paid for that kind of business.
The Inter Ocean says that considering
the large attendance, there were very few
office holders present. Wells was an ex-
ception Their and it ought to cause him 9
reprimind, even if he is Mr.. Costs par
ticular net 10 this end of the district.

The company was prompted in this
action by desire to protect its en-
ployes, Conductor Sharp and Engineer
Wilcher. whose amounts were over $50
each, and also the other creditors named.
Executions we're issued for these
amounts and also for an amount of a
judgment for 1874 20 obtained by f G.
Frazer, and all were placed in Constable
Eckharts hands, except the claims of
Halligan & Co. and Weyerhsuser &
Denkman. Mr. Eckhart accordingly
seized one of the company's motors, two
cars and one team of horses to cover the
amount of the five executions in his
hands.
Sheriff Silvis is expected to attach the
other property in the interests OF the ex,
ecutions of Hslligan & Co and Weyer-
hauser & Denkman.
An attempt was made by the Davenport
estate in the circuit court this morning to
obtain judgment against the Milan road
for claims held by the estate, Col. Curtis
appearing for the claimants and G. L.
Walker, Esq for the defense, but action
was deferred by Judge Smith until tomor-
row morning.

Pluck saved Her Life.

The Moline Republican has the follow
ing concerning the sinking of one of A.
j. Whitney's dredge boats above that
city. and the escape of the plucky maiden
as heretofore briefly stated in the ARGUS:
For some days the dredge boat, l.. L.
Lowell, has been at work near the Dim
ock. Gould s. Co. s mill deepening the log
channel for that company. The boat is
owned by A. j. Whitney, and being I'm
able to do any work Saturday he took
the crew of the dredge down the river in
the steamboat leaving only the young la
DIV who did the cooking on the dredge.
The lady's nome is Miss Ella Wheeler,
and she lives in Hampton. She is young
and pretty, and evidently is one of the
pluckiest girls that can be found here-
abouis.
The boat is anchored near the wing
dam about 400 feet from the shore, and
opposite the ice houses. Alone on the
river the girl knew no fear and STAYED
there from Saturday night till this morn.
ing. when she was forced to leave. This
morning she busted herself preparing
breakfast for the crew she expected to re.
turn. AT 6 o'clock she heard the boa
spring leak. The boat. which Is an ole
cumbersome affair. rapidly filled up with
water from gap in her side. and as soor
as the girl had jumped into a skiff which
was tied alonside and rowed few fee
away. the old craft sank to the river bot.
tom. where che now remains with part o.
her deck above water. The girl rowet
the skiff to the steamer Moline which
was anchored about 200 feet from tn,
dredge. and arriving safely aboard wa,
cared for. All who know the circum
stances speak in high praise of the gri
and presence of mind of the young wo
man.

sure that the bill will be out of the
senate inside of ten days, and then
some one should be here TO help

work, and as l have several other matters

no one will be necessary for fourteen or
sixteen days. / have the addresses of
the different parties and l can by writ

here and help Mr.. Gest on the posto flee
