near the village of Trakchnen, is a
famous horse breeding establishment,

German army with the hundred thou

up a high general standard among the

gets many more horses from this little
corner than from anywhere else in the

record was the following, delivered by
William Pitt in the British house OF
peers: "My lords and gentlemen To
levy direct tax of per cent is a dan
gerous experiment in free country and
may excite revolt; but there is a method
by which you can tax the last rag from
the back, and the last bit from the month
without causing murmur against high
taxes, and that is to tax a great many
articles OF daily use and necessity so in
directly that the people will pay them
and not know it, their grumbling then
will be of hard times; but they will not
know that the hard times are caused by
taxation"

Scott County Prison for which the Con
tract Is Lee.
The new Scott county Jail to be
erected at Davenport by Contractor
Larkin, of this city, will be one Of
the finest in the west. The lowest
bidder for the construction work. as
stated in Mondays ARGUS. was c. j.
Larkin, of Rock Island, whose bid
for Bedford stone was $50, Gas. about
$500 lower than that of the I. W.
McClelland company, the lowest OF
the Davenport bidders. The Demo-
crat SAYS: s.Mr. Larkin is a con-
tractor who has secured standing in
the tri-cities that entitled him to
consideration. He erected the Scott
county court house, and was the SUBJ
contractor for our federal building.
and has recently completed the Rock
Island county court house. The
board decided to award the contract
to Mr.. Larkin. In doing so it made
ample provision for the protection of
home labor, the specifications pro-
viding that the brick to be used be
purchased in this county, the stone
cut on the ground, and none but
Scott county labor to be employed,
except in case of shortage of labor
ers here or strike. The question of
stone to be used was decided in favor
of Berea, if Mr.. Lrrkin will agree to
waive the $3.50 difference between
his bids on Berea and Bedford and
put in the sand stone at the price OF
the lime stone. The contract for the
steel work was awarded to the Pauly
Manufacturing company of St Louis.
and the plumbing and steam heat
ing contracts went to the Davenport
Steam Heating company, each being
the lowest bidder for its part of the
work. The Larkin contract amounts
to $50, the Pauly contract to
$l2. ITO and the plumbing and steam
heating contracts to $S,074."'
