WILL TT BE SAVED?
The Columbian Project to Again
Receive Attention.
A COMMITTEE MEETING CALLED,

The Great Twin-City Undertaking to
Again be Trken Up and a Final Effort be
Made to Put 1t on It's Feet-Necessity of
Some Decided Action without Delay
We have heard very little of the Twin
City Columbian project of late. Conse-
quently some people have ssticfied them-
selves with the thought that it has COL
lspsed and had been abandoned. The
crosker has taken particular consolation
out CT this self assuming view of the
situation.
Butthe Twin City Colun oisn enterprise
has not been given up. Those who have
been in public spirited way identified
with it, have never for moment lost
sight of it. or lost courage over its pros
pects, OF confidence in it.
1t Can Not Fail.
The fact of the matter is, the Column
ban project is in shape at it cannot
fail. Too many men have in financial
way evinced their endorsement of it.
Hence it cannot fail. Something must
be done with it and that soon. Realiz
ing this, Chairman Velie of the original
joint Columbian committee of Rock ISL
and ard Moline has called q meeting at
the rooms Of the Rock Island Citizens
improvement association on Friday even
ing of this week, when it is hoped that
some definite action may be taken lokiug
to the final disposition of the matter.
Worthy Enterprise.
The Columbian enterprise is too worthy
an enterprise. too far reaching in the ad-
vantsges aud benefits TO accrue to the
community to be allowed 10 60 by the
board, merely because people who ought
above all others TO help it are lacking in
the proper spirit. Toe much work has
been done, too many risks taken
by men OF public pride and literal dis
position to let SO worthy an undertake
ing fail of its purpose. During the
summer and fall when all minds were alb
sOrbed with politics. it would have been
8 needless policy 70 have sought to at
tract public attention to any thing but the
election. So the Columbian project has
patiently awaited its time. That time
has arrived. What will the cities of Rock
Island and Moline do with IL

Coal Matters.

The Coal Valley Mining compsny's
output for ten and half months in 1892
was 202 6S3 tons, and had it not been fer
the unfortunate strike in January last,
which run into February, the output
would have exceeded this amount by at
least 25, 600 tons. This vast amount of
cssl has been marketed almost entirely
Ia the three cities. TIE company has
paid ont on its labor md mining rolls
alone the handsome sum of Sl5S 600
1t has also added to its holdings of coal
land, largely during the year. and owing
t. rapid extension of its haulage under
ground at Gable. low has under consider
alton complete system of underground
electric railway, whereby trains of 25 TO
SO bank cars may be hustled over the
su5terranean railway with as much regu-
laritY and certainty IS the railway train
is hauled on the surface.
1t IS fact worth noting, to the credit
of the company. despite the difficulty il
has encountered the past year, and the
advance OF five cents made By it in min
ing. the price of coal has not been ad-
vanced cent by the company, while
hard coal has been sent out of sight by
the freezing out combine, and soft coal
has not been far behind it as a rule.

IOWA VS.. ILLINOIS.
An Important Ruling In a Boundary Line
Slut Between the two States.

An Important Ruling In a Boundary Line
Slut Between the two States.
The supreme court of the United States
on the 3rd ins.., rendered a decision in
the case Of the state of Iowa against the
state OF Illinois TO settle the boundary
line in the Mississippi river between the
two states. Nine bridges cross the river
between the states, and suit was brought
in order each might tax only those parts
OF them within the respective bounda
ries; Iowa contending the boundary
runs through the middle OF the main
body of the river, regardless Of the steam
boat channel, and the measurements be
taken at the normal stage of,water. Illi-
nOis claimed thst the jurisdiction of
each state extended to the middle of the
steamboat channel.
In the opinion of Justice Field, the
court takes the Illinois view of the mat
ter, holding the true boundary in the
middle Of the main channel, This court
ordered commission of three to desig
nate the line on each bridge and deln-
cate the same on the maps.

Som. S range Misaomers.

Much OF the Russia leather comes from Con.
nectisut, Bordeaux wine from California. Italian
marble from Kentucky, Fr,nch lace from New
York, and Spanish maekerel from The New Jer.
sey coast. DR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discoy-
cry comes from Buffalo, N Y, but there is moth
ing in its name to crtic'se for it is truly golden
in value, as thousands gladly testify. Con-
sumption is averted by its use, and it has
wrought many positive cures. 1t sorrects torpid
liver and kidneys, purif1es the blood, banishes
dyspepsia and scrofula, renews the lease OF life,
and tones up the system nothing Else will do.
What is more, it is guaranteed to do all this, or

Complaint as to Car Service.


Rock ISLAND. Jan. S-Editer of the
ARGUs:-Complain comes from the
sorkmen employed in Moline of the pour
service given them by the syndicate lines
They should run at least one more car ON
the esrly trip. or trailer with a stove in
it. As it is, the men are compelled to
stand out on the rear platform. which is
anything but pleasant this cold weather
The company has plenty of cars, and
there is no use of crowding 80 and 40
men in cars intended for half that many.
Now the company makes money carrying
the workingmen to and from Moline and
we should have better service.
A WoRKINGMAN.
In respect 70 the above, to whom it
was referred, Supt. Huntoon stated this
morning that the company had trailer
especially equipped with stove, etc, for
the comfort and accommodation of
workingmen on the early trains, but IN
fortunately the mornings that it was the
coolest and the travel naturally the heav.
lest, it was impossible to pull trailer
over the slippery rails, and it was all the
company could do to run motor car &C.
casionally at such times.
