Isit Worth the Wni,ey

When seen yesterday concerning Gen.
Gilchrist's proposed lookless Hennepin
canal scheme, Capt l.. L. Wheeler, the
government engineer who established the
survey for the location o. the canal to the
mouth of Rock river, stated that in his
opinion Gen. Gilchrists scheme was i'm
practicable. THE Argos has Withheld
Judgment on Gen. Chemists proposition,
but it hiss never had any serious idea that
the government would, after properly To-
eating the route of the canal, change it.
The ARGUS has always held to the policy
of letting well enough alone in securing
Improvements from the government, and
even were Gen. Gichrists plan entirely
feasible, would not be for suffering the
delay in actual construction that the put
ting of ii into operation would necessi-
tate. In a word the only ones who
might hope for particular benefit from q
change Of route would be those not
pleased with the line as fixed by the gov
eminent.

some Things that Those who have
been Affected by the late Craze do
not Know
Hot tomalleysl Have you tried them
DO You know what they contain9 Have
you any idea whtre they are made or who
makes them9
Ihese are questions that might we'll be
asked OF any person who has desire to
patronize the white aproned individuals
who carry them about the streets at night
Pursuing the constant aim of THE ARGUS,
which has always been to insure as far as
possible that which is most essential to
human existence-wbolesome food-the
same principle which actuated its firm
stand for proper meat inspection few
years ago, reporter was delegated to
look into the hot iomalley industry which
has caused somewhat of a craze in Rock
Island of late. In company with friend
the scribe proceeded to an old stone
building up town, on the top
floor of which the industry is carried on.
The two were admitted to the ranshackle
hallway by a woman who promptly
replied to question from the reporter
that they did not allow any one to see
the preparation of the tomaileys. 1t may
be well to mention here that Mexican to-
mslleys when properly prepared are com
posed Of chicken and veal, which is high
ly seasoned, and is then rolled and boiled
in corn husk, and on the southern bord-
ers are considered quite luxury.
After some parleying the women con-
sented to allow the visitor to take look
at the tomaleys after they were made, and
accordingly led the way through smoky,
dirty hallway into the front room where
the processing is done. A Pickering
light revealed scene that was revolving
in the extreme. Seated about the room
were two or three men or boys, it was
hard to distinguish which, while the gen.
eral condition Of the room showed that
very little attention was paid to the man
ner in which the tomslleys were
prepared. The table upon which
the latter were laid after they
were prepared was sight. strewn
with dirty dishes and presided over by
little grimY faced urchin who looked to
be hall inclined to use the table for bed.
The odor that eninated from the room
was not exhilsrsting and the visitors
were exceedingly glad to regain the open
air. The people who run the place de-
scribed, are strangers in the city, having
come here from Indianapolis short time
ago, and the above description of at leas
one of the homes of the tomalley in this
city will no doubt have highly reIishing
effect upon the appetites of the lovers of
the late novelty in the way of food

Com = 10 Life AMIN.

Milan is just recovering from some
thing of sensation which for some rea-
son has been kept pretty much secret.
About four weeks ago Mrs. K4therin
Heverling, wife of F. H. Heverlng. died
ito all intents and purposes" and she was
duly laid out and preparation made for
her funeral o wing to the somewhat
stinted means of the family charitsbly
disposed people were being asked to con-
tribute toward the defrsying of the
funeral expenses. In the meantime
Mrs. Heveling gave evidences of return
ing vitality and in less than an hour she
had regained consciousness and the
money that had been collected was re.
turned to the cheerful givers, and tele-
grams were sent out contradictlng the
ones just previously sent concerning the
lady's death. She is now able 10 sit up,
and gives every evidence of ultimate re-
Oovery.

AVOID THE SUN.-As a matter of fact the
use of an umbrella is more needful from now
until the first of September when the sun
shines, so far as real protection for the carrier,
be it man or woman, than when it rains. To
walk through shower has no damage in it,
while to do it beneath blazing sunshine with
the thermometer ranging near the 100, is to
invite fatal effect. Drenching rains really
have no evil in them, while blistering sun
beams have strokes in them that kill. Every
man going to and from his dinner, from his
place of employment to his home, should carry
an umbrella during July and August as should
everybody exposed to the sun during the
heated season, if they can possibly do it 1t
is n precaution that frequently saves life.

The Pascagoula democrat-star. (Pascagoula, Miss.) 1878-1920, 1892-07-15

The information which comes
from Connecticut that many life.
long Republicans are going over
openly to The side of Cleveland
and tariff reform will surprise no
one who is familiar with The senii.
ment IN New England toward the
tariff question. Eyer since the
passage of the Mckinley law, there
has been IL all the New England
States steadily increasing body
OF Republican voters who have
reached the conclusion that the on.
" way by which New England in.
dustries can secure The free raw
material necessary for their con.
llnued existence is by leaving the
Republican party and voting with
the Democrats. They demanded
Tree raw materials OF the Mckinley
Congress, and were not only met
with refusal but with higher duties.
That was satisfactory proof to
them that there was no hope of re.
lief through the Republican party.
The consequence is that the Dem.
ocratic tariff plaLk attracts them.
The Times gives the names OF a
large number OF lormer Republi-
cars who have come cut openly
for Cleveland IN Connecticut, and
we are in receipt constantly Of
private information which con.
vlnces us of n similar condition of
affairs In other New England
States. We judge from the half
hearted way IN which the leading
Republican organs are taking hold
of the tariff issue that hey TOO
have heard news .ot THIS character
and are filled with doubt in conse-
quence as to the eXpediency Of
putting the party on he extreme

THE BATTLE GROUND.

New York will be the battle
ground in November. There will
be IA votes in the electoral col.
lege this year, so hat the success
lul candidate must secure at least
223. The "solid South" casts 159,
and despite the talk about two or
three of these States being doubt.
ful, nobody whose judgement is
worth anything doubts that the
force bill Issue will carry every
one for the Democratic candidate.
New jerseys 10 may be counted
with equal confidence on he same
side. The Detroit Tribune, the
leading Republican organ of Mich
igan, admits that The Democrats
will get Mt least four votes from
that State. This makes III which
may be called ''sure." Connecli.
cul and Indiana would add 6 and
10 respectively, making 1S4, and
New York's SO would carry the to.
tai up to 23Q, or seven more than
a majority. The Republicans are
relatively better off than before by
reason Of the admission OF the new
States and the changes in older
States caused by the reapporiicn-
ment, bur lhe combination of 1876
and 1854 would carry the day
again in 1899.
