REAL ESTATE BOOM.
The Generally Healthy Condition OF
Property ali over the state.


Property ali Over the state.
The great advance which has been
made in the prices of real estate. both
city and country. throughout the state of
Illinois is attracting the attention of the
public Many theories are advanced and
many causes assigned. but that which
bears the stamp of r:ason to a greater ex-
tent than the others. says the Peoria Jour-
nal, is the fact that the rate of interest for
money has greatly deprecated within the
past 10 years. Even Eve years ago per
cent mortgages. with % OF 8 per cent
commission were common and ready
market could be found for capital at these
rates. but since that time the rate of in-
terest has steadily fallen until today first
class loans are made at per cent with.
out commission. Many such mortgages
have been negotiated al hough the nomi>
nal advertised rates of interest is per
cent Now it is evident that good real
estate in Illinois will and does paw q
higher rate per cent than this and conse
quently great deal of capital is just no
being invested in lands aud city property.
Whenever the rate of interest falls below
what can be secured from rentals then the
value of real property must necessarily
advance. Farm lands that were selling
even two years ago at $40 per acre can
not now be had for less than $50 and in
some localities $50 and SO is the price
asked.
This state of facts gives evidence of
prosperity in all walks of life and soon
Illinois will be a money lending state.
Farm lands Will be high and money will
be plenty. Much of it will go to the
western states aud territories there to help
build up and increase the material wealth
of the citizens. For number of years
Illinois has looked to Massachusetts and
the older states of the east for capita, but
she is now almost in condition to supply
every demand of her people and at the
same time time have surplus for other
states further west. This is a matter that
cannot be too carefully considered, and
Peoria people may rest assured that
investments at the present time in acre
property and town lots will be amply re-
warded in the ueaf future
This is likewise true as regards Rock
Island. Real estate was never a safer,
better investment here than just at this
present.

Scarcely less foolish is the practice of those who

A SIurdersus Attack.

Alex Moore and John Smith, two coll
ored laborers were walking up Perry
street in Davenport last evening, when
near Third street Smith without warning
struck his companion in the abdomen
with his pocketknife, thrusting the blade
in deep and then drawing it toward him,
inficting terrible wound about six
inches in length Smith then made his
escape in rather remarkable manner.
He arrived at the ferry dock just in time
to catch the out going boat, which landed
him in Rock Island just in time to catch the
freight train that was on the point of leav.
ing for ST. Louis. He is known to have
ensconced himself on the bumpers of this
train and was well out of the city by the
time that the officers in pursuit OF him
reached this city. The stations along the
line were telegrsphed to in the hope that
he will be picked off of the train some
where, but the prospects of his capture
do not look very promising.
Both men were tie carriers, had received
their pay yesterday and both were under
the influence of intoxicants when the
assault occurred. The exact cause of the
ARRAY is not known. The victim is in q
precarious condition.

BRoTHERLY LOVE.
A Discourse on the Three cities in
winch some souud Suggestions are
nMArQd

"A
winch some sound Suggestions are
offered.
The Davenport Democrat takes a sug.
gestion offered by THE ARGUS the other
evening. as text for the following dis
course which is as sound in logic as it is
apropos of the present tri-city situa.
ton:
THE ARGUS says that Rock Island
would like to have the opportunity of
entertaining the next Western Waterways
convention, mentioned 10 these columns
Sunday morning. but that, since Daven-
port has spoken for the meeting first and
has first claim on il she will not seek in
any manner to wrest the honor from us;
rather than that she will give us all the
aid she can in entertaining the delegates
and in making the convention success.
This is the sort of spirit that should
prevail all through the three cities. Local
Jeaiousies and petty spites have no right
full place here. What Is the interest of one
of these three towns should be the concern
of the others. A certain deg rec of local
pride and good natured generous emula-
ton are ali right and perfectly proper.
but they should not be carried to the ex-
tremes that are to be occasionally noted
here and on the other side of the river.
This point is really one community.
There is vast diversity of interest here,
but there is room for it all. and room for
far more than there is here. Davenport
is doing well. Its business houses aud
retail stores and factories are all prosper
ing. its commerce is being extended. and
its borders are being enlarged. II should
not be envious when Rock Island or Mo-
line gets new enterprise. nor should
they be when it is likewise blest.
The day may come when not only Rock
Island and Moline will be consolidated,
but when the three towns shall practically
grow into one. They are one now in
many respects. Located as they are,
each upon the borders of the others,
there are many things that are common to
them. and many things that they COM
mand jointly which could not come to
any one of them singly and separately.
They all ought to remember. more dill
gently than they do, that in union there
is strength, and join teams instead of
pulling against each other.

LOOK OUT

for counterfeits, limitations, and substi-
tutes, represented as genuine, but sold at
less than regular prices by dealers in
medicines not authorized to sell DR..
Pierce's genuine medicines.
To guard against fraud and imposi-
ton, the makers of DR.. Pierce's genuine
medicines now sell their world famed
remedies only through druggists, au-
thorize1 as agents, and under positive
guarantee Of benefit or cure, or money
refunded. Authorized agents only can,
under these regulations, furnish DR..
Pierce's genuine medicines, which al
ways have been, are, and always will
be, sold at the following prices:
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
(the remedy for all diseases arising from
torpid liver or impure blood),
$1.00 per bottle.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription (the
remedy for woman's chronic weaknesses
and derangeRents), $1.00 per bottle,
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets (the orig
inal and best little Liver Pills),
% cents per vial.
The genuine guaranteed medicines can
be sold only at these prices. But they're
the cheapest medicines sold, because you
pay only for the good you get. The
money is refunded if they don't benefit
or cure.
On these terms, will it pay you to take
any risk?

filed two more suits, coy ering the period
between 1881 and 1855. which have been
referred to Mayor Cunningham as ref
