After the Unions comparison of the
two men, THE ARGUS still maintains that
Mr.. Frey Is the superior of Mr.. Gamble
in ability, either as grocery merchant or

al Sunday evenings.
The family CT the late Mrs. Catherine
Cary desire to thus publicly express their
sincere gratitude for the many acts of
kindness shown by thoughtful friends
during their late bereavement.
The Union holds that because Mr.. Frey
is grocer he is not competentto succeed
George w. Gamble rs circuit clerk. If
we remembar rightly there are some
records in Mr.. Candles own Office about
the success of his career as grocer in
Moline. but it has never yet been neces-
cary to make public record of Mr.. Frey's
transactions as a merchant.
The Union figures it out that because
George w. Gamble as deputy recorder
under Mr.. Bowman, recorded 9003 in
struments. whereas his own deputy, AL
bert johnson, has enlisted IS 491 in the
four months of his Office so far, it is
complimentary TO the republican nominee
| for circuit clerk. 1t would be if Mr. john
son was the candidate-but he is not.
When Gamble wound up his duties OF
| deputy recorder to take the position OF
| circuit clerk be had recorded g. 003 instru-
| ments, and was several hundred behind

his deputy. Mr.. johnson, has recorded
