Some Convention History Recalled.

Anent the Unions compliments to
Capt. F. A. Freer, of Galesburg, on
receipt Of the announcement that
Congressman Prince has determined
to appoint him postmaster at the
Knox county seat. the morning
paper takes occasion to re-
fer to the Galva convention where
Prince won his first honors in this
district as one in which Freer
headed the Prince delegation, and "a
contest which was conducted with
good humor and good feeling to the
close" That was one of the most
remarkably good natured conven.
tions in history-in q horn. The
Union evidently forgets one incident
in particular which illustrated how
high the feeling was running. The
Unions editor was chairman OF the
committee on resolutions, and after
be had read the platform to the con-
vention Capt. Freer arose and de-
msnded what really were the prin-
ciples enupciated on the money
question. II may be more obtuse
tDan some OF the other gentlemen
here" he said. 'and may not, but I
would like that money plank ex-
plainei comprehensiveiy. would
like to know what we are commit
ting ourselves to-"
The chairman of the committee
was annoyed and vexei. ut means.-
he snapped. s'two little words-I
will say for the benefit of the gentle

delegates who do not Understandable

TO GO AT IT AGAIN.
The Committee on First Ave.
nue. Railroads Gives Up.
HUua WORK DONE FOR NOTHING.

Another Council WIN Accomplish What
This One Has Ralssd 20 and First
Avenue WIN Receive the Astension 1t
should.
At the city council meeting last
evening the original committee on
track privileges on First avenue re-
ported that it had been unable TO
reach an agreement with the c. B. &
q. and B. l. & P. rosds, and asked
to be discharged. Aid. Concannon
moved that the committees report
be accepted and the committee be dis
missed. And it was SO ordered.
Thus endeth the river front question,
80 far as the present council is con-
cerned. With the appointment of
the committee which last night
passed in its checks really began the
first tangible evidence of q DISPOSE
ton to adjust the long and much
vexed controversy as to track rights
on First avenue. The undertaking
was bigger one than the council
was capable Of handling. but the
aldermen permitted too much delay
from the very incipiency of the pro-
ject. Then, too, q Meddlesome Mat
tie came upon the scene in the shape
Of the Bridge and Terminal company,
and it managed to ..get next"
to many Of the city officials. The
Bridge and Terminal company
played q smooth game, too, and won.
The mayor was not in sympathy
with any enterprise on First avenue
looking to the city's advancement
and the profession OF public inter-
ests. Nevertheless with all these
complications. the repeated and pro-
voking and unnecessary delays, the
city carried proceedings to the very
point Of success, and would have won
out with glory but for treachery
and deception manifested by o couple
of aldermen at the very last minute
The consequence was that the pres
emit administration and council made
q dismal failure OF the river front
Improvement. Nothing whatever
was accomplished. and OF the num-
erous questions at issue on FIRST
avenue, involving disputed track
