EX-GOV. BOB TAYLOR'S CONVICT
STORY SPOILED.

Nashville, Tenn, February 3.-ln
his lecture on "The Fiddle and the
Bow" Ex-Governor Bob" Taylor al
ways makes a hit with the audience
and iustifies his tree exercise of the
pardoning power by telling the story
of one pardon. He said one day
3 little package came to him from
the state prison as he sat in the
governors office. Opening it be
found a roughly carved fiddle and a
note. The note was to the effect
that knowing the governors love for
the fiddle, convict, from his prison
cell, sent this rude instrument with
the request that ne would play one
tune on it ard think of one who sat
in loneliness while the inmates OF
an humble mountain cabin watched
in vain for his coming.
Affected by the note he investi-
gated the case and finally pardoned
the convict, so that when Christmas
came JOY once more reigned in the
mountain cabin and the governor
sat on Christmas day with his own
loved ones, happy in the conscious
ness that the sound OF the fiddle,
the happy laughter of the children
and the smiles Of loved wife lit up
the once sad home because the wan
dering father had returned.
The story never tails to be cheered
to the echo. The pardon, however,
it develops was most unworthily be-
slowed. The man pardoned was
George McCully, who was yesterday
arrested at Bristol on a charge of
bigamy and sent to Jail without bail.
McCully's first wife was here and
labored most earnestly for his par
don. When Taylor released him
he left here without taking the
trouble to look up his faithful wife.
He went to Greenville, Tenn, and
there married again. In a short
while he deserted the second wife
and went to Bristol, where, about
three months ago he married Miss
Rosa Belle Ashley, who is now pros
ecutlng him for bigamy.

COOK COUNTY FACTS ARE FACTS.

THE EAGLE is under obligations to
Hon. Joseph S. Martin, of the State
Beard of Equalization, for a copy of
the assessments made in the various
counties of the State for 1893
The information concerning Cook
County, as returned by the assessors,
is good.
For instance, according to the re-
turns of the assessors, there are in
Cook County:
Thirty-nine thousand three hun
dred and seventy-tive horses, 34,3l0
cattle, and 322 mules and asses,
One thousand two hundred and
seventy sheep, 6, 465 hogs, and
Five hundred and seventy steam
engines ana DOlleTS.
Cook County has 2S4 fire and
burglar proof safes,
One hundred and forty-three bill
lard and pool tables,
And %, 81 carriages and wagons.
There are in Cook County $500
watches and clocks.
Four thousand and four hundred
and eighty-one sewing ma chimes, and
II, 255 pianos.
There are fourteen franchises
scheduled in Cook County, and val.
ued at sos, 3j3.
And under the head Of "annuities
and royalties" just one, valued al
5000.
Cook County returns bat one own
er of patent rights" This one il
valued at $50.
Cook County retuns 80 vessels
steam and sail,
And reports having sl2, % in gold
silver and plated ware,
And slj, 06j worth OF diamonds.
Truly, Cook County is wonder
and 50 is the Assessors report.

but whether Chicago shall insist that
| the stranger within our gates shall
share our contempt for the playful
microbe. The Hygeia ordinance pro.
yides that spring water of undoubt-
ed purity and certain healthfulnesS
may be delivered as cheaply as posi-
BILE to those who wish to buy it. 1t
pays a toll to the city certainly as
high as could be asked for permission
to do business. 1t is regulated in
the manner in which it may lay its
pipes both by the organic directions
of the franchise and by the contin-
u0us control of the city officers.
There is but one rational test that
can be appl' ed to a problem of this
kind by the Mayor and this ordinance
meets it satisfactorily. Suppose the
bill signed and the company at work.
| What will follow? The water from
the Waukesha springs will be brought
into the city and sold to its custom
ers The man WHO prefers spring
water to lake water can buy it or can
refuse to buy it-just as the man
who wants to drink lemonade, or
beer, or wine, or tea, can get his
beverage. The free competition Of
the city mains will always keep the
price Of the Waukesha close to the
cost line, and how this can injure
any person in the city it is difficult

is precisely the same. The reason
ing of the court there sustains the
position contended for here In that
case, in the separate opinion, JUS
tice Scott uses this significant Ian
guage: The fact that a day in No
vember, 1882, is fixed for the election
of officers inhibits as effectually an
election at an earlier day as if the
Constitution and the statute had
positively forbidden it, In the
case under consideration the act
OF 1893, in fixing the date for
the election of such officers in
November, 1894, in the language
of the same justice, 'inhibits as effect
ually an election at an earlier day as
if the statute had positively forbid
den it. | am, therefore, decidedly
of the opinion that no election can
be held the approaching November;
that the only law now in force on the
subject of the election of commission
ers for Cook County is the act of
1898, and that only under its proyis-
ions can all future elections be held
and that by reason thereof the pres
ent commissioners will hod over I'M
til their successors are elected aud
qualified in November, 1894"
While the prevailing sentiment in
Cook County among men of both par
ties was that under a strict constrc-
tion of the statute an election for
Commissioners should be held, it is
quite probable that the Attorney
Generals opinion will be accepted by
the County Clerk without question,
and that no call will be issued for an
election. At any rate the opinion
will gladden. the breasts of the pres.
ent members of the board, and will
remove very lively factor in the APP.
preaching campaign.

their patrons. They buy only the
best, and give the same service as
Chas. Kern has for so many years.
Newhart& Bader make a speciality of
imported beers, also imported wines,
liquors, and cigars. The boys have
reproduced the Kern restaurant, and
it does ones heart good to step into
the new quarters, and while drinking
a "Pilsener," note the old, familiar
faces we used to see at Kern's.
The boys are "a good pair to draw
to-" and say, nothing is too good. )"
Come one. Come all. THE EAGLE
admires the hustling characteristics
of Messrs. Newhart & Bader, and
can yOuch for this fact to its many
patrons that you can get as fine
meal and as good service at their
place as any place in the city. Go
and seem them.

No Penalties for Good Work.

General John G. Black is Demo
crat for whom the people Of Illinois
have the profoundest respect. He
was a flrst-rate Commissioner Of Pen
sions, he was an ornament to the bar
of this county, and his vote on the
silver question the other day was
given to the right side. But his Chi
cago friends do not indorse the er.
rand upon which he went to Post
master General Bissell, and they
will be glad to hear that he was
promptly rebuked and turned down.
1t is not part Of the duty of Cen
eral Black or any other Congressman
to attempt to force the removal Of as
good public servant as Captain
James Stuart, chief postal inspector
of this district. The General was
unfortunate in his choice OF a mark,
for Bissell had at his fingers ends
the official acts which sufficiently re-
piled to the demand. But IL it were
some other servant of the Govern
ment, some person whom Mr.. Blssell
never had heard of, our point would
sbe the same. The spirit Of the civil
service rules should be followed as
well as the letter, and it is pleasing
to get this pronounced note Of the
intention of the administration not
TO remove hard working minor Of
ficlals even when they are technical
ly unprotected by the law.
General Blacks action was not up
to his standard of political conduct
We hope he feels adequately ashamed
of 1t now that he has cooled down. -
