OUTRAGEOUS VANDALISM.
Shameful Dissertation of Church Property
That Must be stopped.

Shameiui Dissertation OF Church Property
That Must be stopped.
Rock ISLAND. Sept. 24.-For some
years past it has been the common com
plant on the part of the people of the
different churches in Rock Island, that
the porches, steps and approaches of
the different church buildings have been
made the resorts and losfng places Of
'lewd fellows of the baser Sort" who
with their female companions occupy
the shadowy recesses of these secluded
buildings during the mild summer even
ings. and when not doing anything worse,
spit tobacco juice and filth over the stone
steps of the buildings, to the utter dis
gust of all properly disposed persons.
Owing to the natural disinclination of
people generally to complain against
anything not exactly criminal, this course
of conduct has been allowed to 60 on
unchecked and without interference.
This non-iuterference, however, has had
the usual effect of encouraging these
dirty loafers TO go further and further in
their acts of filth aud indecency. until it
is about time to call a halt.
The janitor of the Episcopal church
has a number OF times OF late been COM
PEELED TO clean away the excrement de-
posted upon the steps and upon the
stone water tables by the buttresses at
and near by the doors leading into the
church, and in one case lie found the yes
Nbule polluted, showing conclusively that
the acts were committed with deliberate
and malicious intent to polIute and desc
crate the place.
Now, there is law of the state of Hi
which provides good round penalty for
this sort of pastime, and it
is the intention of those having
charge of this particular
church edi6ce. 70 enforce this law to its
extreme limit, and if necessary. N order
TO detect and arrest the transgressors,
| they are ready and propose to employ
private wstchmen who. with the assis-
lance of the regular police officers, it is
hoped will be abundantly able to bring
| them to just and righteous judgment.
1t will also be well for those who sim
| ply make use of the steps for conven
| lent losfipg place, to take office thai
they will not be permitted to contin ue
this practice.
1t is not thought for one moment that
| these acts complained of are so COM
| mitted out Of any special iil-wil) toward
| this particular church, but because of it:
| isolated and secluded location furnishes 6
| convenient and comparatively safe place
| for these human eXcresceIces to exhibit
their natural propensities to nastineness

UNIVERSAL STREET TRACK.

In another column a communication
suggests the application of the street rail-
way track idea to all city streets in the same
way as that proposed for the country roads
couple of weeks ago by another
correspondent. The last proposition is
that every new street over forty feet in
width shall have as an integral part of the
pavement double track of street railway,
and the reasons given for doing so are
quite cogent
Everyone who has watched the hauling
of heavy loads over onr streets is we'll
aware that there is an immense saving of
friction and draft the moment the wheels
of a wagon are settled in car-track. The
plan of our correspondent proposes that
this smoothness shall be provided on all
streets to be paved hereafter. The
additional expense would be slight In
proportion to the gain; and it is a cogent
question whether the relief of wear and
tear OH other parts of the pavement might
not permit the cost of the tracks to be
saved from that source.
Our correspondent points out further
that this plan would permit the tracks to
be leased to street railway companies. A
local difficulty in the way of this PROPOSE
ton is that, as at present nearly all ap-
proaches to the central part of the city are
already engrossed, such plan would con-
fine the bidding to existing lines. 1t is
question for the future to decide, however,
whether exclusive ownerships of this kind
can be established on the public highways.
But when that question is properly settled
better plan of using these tracks would
be to permit any or all companies operat-
ing movable cars to use them on payment
of reasonable royalty.
At all events, the idea is well worth con-
sideration. The value of car tracks apart
from their primary purpose is attested by
the lines of wagons using them on the
principal streets; and possible cost of
81 30 per foot front should not be an OBJ
stacle to extending the same advantage to
every side street.
