BOCK ISLAND ILLINOIS, Wednesday. March 21. 1877. Scheme to Dam the Won't Win. Mississippi The fact that the Molina Water Power Co. failed to obtain its usual appropriation this year, uoder the specious plea of devel oping a water power for government use at Rock Island Arsenal, has induced the wily manager of that company to mak p. cat's paw of the innocent Board of Trade, of Davenport, in a scheme to dam the Mississippi so as to use the water of tlt wholo river to wash tho sand out of its pond. This of course will ruin river navi gation and the foxy Charley does not ap pear as advocate of the dam project, but allows our old railroad friend Holmes, of Gilbert, to father the nondescript. That congress has been beautifully humbugged into appropriating largo sums f money for the Moline Water Power Co. with nothing but a canal, a stone wall and a pond of sand to show for it, except for a limited time du ring the year, is a well known fact. That congress will not be further humbugged in this direction begins to bo apparent, and that it will never allow river navigation to be ruined by dams across the Mississippi is also a pretty well grounded belief. It would be siugular indeed, if congress, after spending money to deepen the channel, should then spend more money to dam it up again! Does Not Want to be Recognised. Gov. Hampton of South Carolina is re ported as saying he "does not wish to be recognized; all that he desires is that the United States troops be withdrawn from the state-house." This shows that the question in South Carolina is a very sinip plo one, and that Hampton thoroughly understands it. Why should he wish to bo recognized by the federal government? Has Gov. Phelps of Missouri ever asked Mr. Hayes to recognize him? Has Gov. Culloui of Illinois ever sought a federal recognition? Did Mr, Hayes, when gov ernor of Ohio, solicit a recognition from President Grant? Is it necessary that the president, or the de facto president of the L'nited States, should recognize each ot the thirty-eight state governors before they can boast a clear title? It is not the presidential recognition that makes lawful governors of states; it is not the voice of the people. Hampton would fare just as well without being recognized by Mr. Hayes as if he were recoguized every day of the year. But there are federal troops in the South Carolina state-house an'i this is the trouble. It is Mr. Hayes' fault that they are there. Grant placed them theri, and Hayes keeps them there. They ought to be removed, for they de bar the lawfully chosen government from the building. If they were out of the way, the Hampton government would walk into tho state-hous, the Chamberlain pretence of a government would quietly walk out and that would bo the end of the matter. From that time forth South Carolina would be as qaiet and tranquil as Mis souri or Illinois. The federal army in Louisiana and South Carolina is a disturb ing agent. If it had never been employ ed to put in oflice and maintain uuelected governors there would have been no trouble. Send the same army to Boston to put a pretender in the executive chair of Massachusetts, and there would be a Massachusetts question, just like the South Carolina question only teu times worse. There is but one rightful solution of the trouble in South Carolina and Louis iana tho removal of tho cause of it. Take away the troops f rom Columbia and New Origan and the trouble will dUap-pear.--.S7. Imix Hep'dtUcan. From the Ihuly UrajMe, Miirrh :', 177. Restoring tlte Portraits. A South Carolina gentleman, after the war.t Mik a half dozen crooked and grimy pictures to a well known artist to bu re stori d- "These are my ancestors," he ex plained; "they have come through the war uninjured. You seo we took the best care to make tliem seem worthless, ana they were lot alone, and with a little pains will look as good as new." Now that our presidential war is over, a good deal ot restoring will have to be done iu the national port! ait gallery. It 1 as been too much the custom of late years to earn political warfare beyond the legitimate lines ot principles unu measures, ami admitted public acts into the domain ol private life, and assaults on character have taken the placo of argument, and discus sions of public questions have been varied by mud throwing. The heat of the excite tuent of the passions aroused by the inter ests at stake carries even well tueauing uieu turther than they intend to go in this direction, and they doubtless sincerely regret statements and charges agaiust opponents if they lack the courage to make the honorable amende. .John Quiney Adams repented more than anything hib bitter personal assaults on his antagonists. Mr. Ogle on his deatU bed confessed that his tales against President V an Huron were untrue, and regretted making them. Now that the Republic, ins have gained the goal and thir candidate is iu the lute House, justice no les.s than magnamity requires them to acknowledge that at least three quarters ol Hie charges made against Governor Til Jon were not supported by fads. There is no question that he was falsely accused of a great many thiugs and in terms which no well-bred person or well conducted paper should employ. And the portrait of this distinguished citizen and civilian is now undergoicg a process of restoration.. The stains are fading out The blotches are going. Tho American people mean to be just. His nephew, Col one! Pelton, suffered in the same way The exigencies of the campaign seemed to make it necessary to throw suspicion ou his connection with the Oregon affair, to make that contemptible case look as badly as possible. A great quautity of telegrams were unearthed, dispatches in cipher were found, and their contents guessed at, There wero sugiastious of money wanted. and some of the despatches were directed to Mr Iildcn s private, residence I hose who knew Mr. Pelton personally needed no assurance that he had engaged in no iui proper transaction, lie went before the senate committee, and at his own request made a full and explicit statement of his connection with the Oregou business, and one that ought to have satisfied, and prob ably did satisfy, all who heard it. It is sell consistent and reasonable. Col. Pel ton acted with the Democratic Committee. A great many telegrams were received.aod many were not delivered. Somo of them wero answered by himself, and others by other gentlemen, end most of them were forgotten in the crowd of other matters requiriug attention. People sometime addressed dispatches to his resi dence in Gramercy Park, but Done were delivered there, the officers having expli cit ord. rs o deliver them at the office in Libeity street durum the day, and at the headquarters in the Everett House dur lug the eyeniug. Most of the dispatches put in evidence he never saw, and many of thorn had no signature, and the order V,.""!" waa changed so that dispatches ftua bad do couutictiou were read aa question and answer. As tor proposing or considering the purchase of one of the Republican electors, the subject was not thought of, and would have been spurned if it had been suggested, and neither of the Republican eleotors, admits that he was ever approached. Money was asked for to be used in paying lawyers' fees, which was a perfectly legitimate transac tion, but it was never used end never left this city; and when asked lor was empha tically refused. The whole thing fell through the day it was thoroughly exam ined. There was no real bottom for the tub to stand upon. The senate Las shown its views on the general subject by admit ting Governor Groyer to a seat, and the people will gladly see that Col. Pelton's good name is restored. And it is to be hoped that in the next presidential can vass the soiling of reputations will not be included in the tactics of either party. LFTTER FROM HON. B.G.WRIGHT. Call for a Greenback Clnb in Rural. Rural, 111., March 20, 1877. To tho Editors of The Argus: Gentlemen: I copy, and 6end you for publication, a call for a greenback club in Rural township. From your lately published view of the currency question you agree, in the main points, with the greenback advocates, unless I am mistaken in the language you use. You oppose the federal bank system and banks of circulation both have been a system of legalized "spoliation" as proved by the able French political econo mist, Bastiat. The treasury note system was very ably advocated by Jefferson, Jackson, and other anti-bank statesmen of early times. If the views you express had been promulgated in the Democratic platform at St. Louis, instead of that indefinite word "reform," the Democratic party would to day have the administra tion of the federal government. The people begin to see that the money power and its combination with every form of monopoly, is tho curse of down trodden humanity. They have the numerical power and will right the wrongs which oppress them. B. G. Wright. CALL FOR A GREENBACK CLUB. We, the undersigned, believing that the pecuniary interest of the farmers, mechanics, merchants, laborers, and other producers and distributers of the products of industry, require the continuance, by the federal government, of the legal tender treasury note, or greenback currency. 1st, We believe that the principle and in terest of thi United States bonds shall be paid in greenbacks. 2nd, We believe that the states should not charter banks of circulation. 3d. We believe that the National banks should be discontinued, and their notes, which cost the industrial classes some twenty millions of dollars annually, shall be replaced by greenbacks. 4th, We believe that the federal government should re ceive greenbacks for duties, taxes, and all other claims; and, 5th, We believe that the bondholders shall be taxed as other property holders,for federal aud state pur poses. To aid in securing the adoption of these measures we agree to form a political asso ciation to be called the "Rural Township State Sovereign Greenback Club" under such a constitution as the members mav adopt. And we pledge ourselves to each other. and to the advocates of these measures, to vote for no man for president, vice presi dent, member of eontrress, governor, lieu tenant governor of Illinois, or members of our state legislalure.not pledged to support these essential measures of reform.
