Lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused by a
bacillus or germ which exists plenti-
fully in street dirt. 1t is inactive as
long as exposed to the air, but when
carried beneath the skin, as in wounds
caused by percussion caps or by rusty
nails, and when the air is excluded the
germ is aroused to activity and pro
duces the most virulent poison known

ing the l. & l. line. Mr.. Register, of
the above firm spent several days in
Davenport last week. in which it is
understood he thoroughly familiarized
himself with the market value of all
the building assets of the John L.

piciOn is that conference upon the
matter has already been held in the
east, presumably at New York City.
1t is also possible that by this time
the deal has been closed, and again
there may be hitch in the negotia-

ISLANDERS THE DEAD.

Jeff Davis likens himself to the
late VIM. Goebel. Let's see
about that: Was Goebel ever
charged publicly or privately
with being a common, everyday
liar? Did any legislative COM
mittce, or anybody else, ever
prove that he tried to loot the
treasury Of the state be sought to
govern, or that he was an unsafe
man to whom to sell a small
quantity Of coal on a credit? Was
Goebel ever accused, in any
quarter, of unfaithfulness to his
friends under any circumstances?
Did Goebel appoint his own faith
er, or any other person near Of
kin, to a public Office, and then
have his salary increased several
hundred dollars per annum? Did
Goebel ever take a one-horsa
brother in law out Of the corn
eld,-which he adorned,-
demand a job for him as elec-
trician in an important public
building, and remove a compe-
tent ex-Confederate veteran in
order to make q place for him?
Did Goebel denounce the railroad
monopolie,s on the stump and
take tribute from them in order
to finance his gubernatorial cam
paign? Was Goebel ever accused
of having the "face of a bully
and the heels Of coward"' Did
Goebel ever publicly admit that
he carried his hand behind him?
Unless all these questions can be
answered in the affirmative we
rather think, with his usual
blythe and debonair capacity for
lying, jeff Davis has slandered
dead man.-Helena World.

In his sermon last Sunday,
Father j. T. Coffey, Catholic
Priest, discussed the fearful state
of political corruption that has
existed in Missouri and referred
to the supreme court in these
words: "On the supreme bench
have been some judges who were
known to be common whisky soak
and much could not be expected
of men of that caliber." We
presume the preacher knew what
he was talking about, but what
will he say if ho is dragged be-
fore the court and fined without
trial as we're the two editors few
weeks ago. 1t is an awful thing
