A BIisapprehension

Rock ISLAND. Jan 10-Editor ARGUS:
Referring to the action of the Tri-Uity
Labor congress at its Sunday meeting in
appointing q committee to confer with
the Rock Island Brewing company to
seek the reinstatement of the men who
were thrown out of employment by the
combine" we desire to state tina there
has been apparently great misapprehen-
sion of the effect of the consolidation of
the Rock Island brewing interests as re-
CARDS the men employed heretofore by
the different brewing establishments now
comprising this company. As result of
the consolidation the working forces
heretofore employed by each of the
breweries have not been reduced in a
single instance. The same number of
men are employed in the aggregate as
heretofore. Nobody has besn thrown
cut of employment. We have made
provision for the employment of all the
men of the three breweries, and none OF
the men need give themselves any con
earn on that score as long as they prove
themselves as worthy as they have here
tofore. Rock ISLAND BREWING Co.

been expected. Another meeting will

HOW HE SEIZED THE SAFE.

While in partnership with the firm of
Loup e. Lee he went into an enterprise
of his own. He secured an old charter
for manufacturing patent leather In
New Jersey and induced a well-known
gentleman in Newark, named Wilson, to
become president. Several other per-
sons were associated in the management,
and Gould agreed to put in a certain
sum of money. He borrowed from Lee
$500, and with the borrowed money
made his first installment, never eX-
pecting to pay in any more. The affairs
OF this concern did not prosper, and,
about the time that Loup committed
suicide, the partners in the patent leather
company called upon Gould for an
additional assessment. OF course, he
had no money and was liable to lose his
investment. Here, again, his daring
genius came into play, and one morning,
before the other partners came to the
store in Newark, Gould had employed a
gang of men to crowbar the safe of the
company out Oh the sidewalk. In this
safe, it appears, were private securities
of the other members of the firm
Fortunately for GOuld's partners there
was some delay, and they arrived on the
ground before the safe was opened or
taken away. His boldness, however
intimidated the others. and they agreed
to settlement, by which Gould got hi:
money out of the concern instead Of
paying an additional assessment.

Tn it ne had carefully verified the state
ments presented to discriminate be-
tween truth and fiction, and suppressed
much interesting matter which lacked
the proper authority, or conflcted with
truth. "Stll doubtless" he adds, there
Is room for Improvement"
Mr.. Gould opens the volume proper
with an essay on history. He divides
history into three parts-ancient, medic
val and modern. Then he characterizes 1t
as of two kinds, general and particular.
The history of the United States would be
general, and that of the State of New
York particular. "ro say that the
Legislature of the State of New York in
1876 passed the Maine law, with the
attendant circumstances of its execution.
would, venture to say, be as much out
of place in general history as one of the
Blackfoot Indians of Kansas Territory
would be in the halls of congress at
Washington" says Mr.. Gould in his
Introductory essay in his history. This
sentence is an example of the uncon-
ventional style of Mr.. Gould in his book.
In the sentence following the one
quoted above, Mr.. Gould perpetrates a
pun. 1.-The territory. then, which we
have chosen as the basis of this history"
he says, "characterses it as one of the
| particular kind; and while at the com
mencement we exhort those into whose
hands it may fall, who are perhaps
better informed than ourselves, not to be
too particular in their criticisms; we
shall at the same time strive to be
particularly correct in all our assertions.
nor leave any stone unturned that will
add anything of interest to those who
may read its contents" The italics here
used are those of the author.
Mr.. Gould first treats of the Indian
history of the country, and philosophers
briefly on the origin of the American
ahorlgine. He inclined to the opinion
that they came from the other continent
over by the way of Behring straits, and
spreading soon peopled the whole CONT
nent.
Chapter XIV. of the work is devoted
to the Life and Adventures of Timothy
Murphy" In naive note at the heaC
of the chapter, Mr.. Gould said: "Tht
following sketch of the services of the
late Timothy Murphy in the border war
fare of the Revolution, who kindly fur
nished the author, and although in som'
respects deviating from what he con
ceives to be the truth, in the main he ha
ascertained them to be correct"
The next chapter does not even clam
to be history. Its subject is The AID
ventures of Yankee Woman" by
Maud Sunderland, Jr., and Mr.. GoulC
tells us at the head of the chapter tina
"rhe following interesting produc
ton from the pen OF daughte
of f. B. Fem, Esq, is inserted at tn
request of numerous friends"
The last chapters in the book are de
voted to obituary and biographies
: sketches. The appendix contains som
matters of history, republshed fror
newspaper sketches, and there also az
pears there the analysis of the water
of Iodine Spring" near Delhi, whlc
looks very much as if the shrewd youn
; man had found an advertiser.
