So far as the Sentinel is concerned in " summary ~
locating the rVhte of the ST. Louis and Cincinnati
Rail ROadjhysSh this State, it has no chOice; or if
1t has, it has expressed The Sentinel yet

The Jacksonian editor is altogether in error, if he
supposes we have any etssonalfsengs Or interest to
govern IN this matter. We are citizens of the
State, not of particular townships and our desire
is only to have equal share in the prosperity of ALL
without any attempt succeed On the downfall or in
jury of our neighbors.
We have lately received a communication from the
Rush Committee; and our committee here will bear
witness that urged the liberal offer of the Rush
committee, not only to their favorable considerations
but that they should notify those with whom it was
their duty to correspond, the details of said
communication. Acting then in the best faith, we
repeat, at loss to fathom the thrust or
sheer of the Jacksonian.
Further, we see no difficulty, other than that ut
tendan on all such enterprises, in the way of making
road as proposed by the people of Rush. even should
the other be made; but to whatever conclusions the
in May proposed. in all probability we shall sup
port them, please OF displease whom it may We
do not expect that whether approve or dsapprove,
1t will trouble future prospects in the least; for
at present we have no particular aspirations; an;
even it We had, we should ego ahead" on tbs. old
plain hat-footed honest democratic plan without anv
attempt at demagoguism. We know no; vet. but the
convention may select the route Proposed to pass
through Rushviie; especially as we consider the offer
to make the road themselves through the county as
an extremely liberal ole; and one, if followed bv
each county on the r9ute could easily and expeditions
iy make the road
W. are too much engaged to follow the subject far
fher and have hopes that the people of Rush will
understand this as well as on all other points.
however much the Jacksonian may wish to misrepre-
sent US.
