n logical Review.

The year just closing has brought
to Rock Island its portion of sue
cesses and reverses, of good fortune
and III fortune. While in the
early months the city suffered
severely through the prevalence of
typhoid fever. due, as it was de-
veloped, TO defects in the water
works intake pipe, through which
seeped diseased sewage, occasioning
much pain and sorrow, yet, taking
the - months rs n whole. Rock Island
has abundant cause for contcntment.
The city has continued along lines of
advancement, progress and improve
ment.
While the city has lost, too, in the
removal of the Rock Island shops to
Moline, yet the uneXcelIed induce
ments. opportunities and advantages.
peculiarly its own, are such that
other gains that have come and are
coming make up what slight losses
will occur on this account. Else
where appears the Argus annual de-
tailed record of building improve
ments. showing there has been no
diminution in this respect. There
have been Industrial gains also. few
new factories nave located Wlthh the
borders of the town, and more are
in prospect.
The record that follows is one of
the happenings OF a more important
