Of the progress of Wing principles in that quar-
ter. The Register is the only wing paper print

II Mr. Fillmore be the next candidate for the
Presidency, Illinois will give him an overwhelm-
ing majority. As a guage by which to measure
the change that is taking place in the public mind
N this portion of the State, we may mention that,
when Polk ran for the Presidency, he received
majority of 2iS in this county; When Gen.
Cas- ran, the majority had dwindled down to 80
and, no doubt, at the next Presidential election
the county will be thoroughly Wing. A few
years since, there was scarcely Wing in Me-

MuscATINE AND OsKALoosA RAILROAD MEET
ING.-The meeting of the friends of the Iowa
Western Railroad, held in this place Saturday
last was large and enthusiastic, beyond our most
sanguine expectations. The extremely bad roads
and high waters were sufficient TO deter every
one who is not in good earnest about the work
The energy displayed by those who had to swim
the streams, and push along over almost impassi-
BILE roads.is but fair sample of the deep feeling Of
this whole community on the subject. The de-
termination expressed by every person present
entirely removes every doubt in relation to the
ultimate completion Of the work. 1t is now
placed upon basis that casts all visionary spec
ulations in the shade. 1t is engrafted upon the
minds of the people, and they are fully determin-
ed to carry it on. Books were opened aud $50
shares of Stock was subscribed We believe
$4,000 can be obtained at this point in short
time.
1t is the intention of the Directors, to have a
survey of the route, by competent engineer. as
soon as the streams and roads will admit of it..

The popularity Of President FILLMORE, and
his able Cabinet, is daily on the increase. The
success which has attended the efforts Of the ad-
ministration, to restore confidence and quiet to
the country, through the most boisterous and
dangerous era in its annals, proves that the grea
Wing party made most judicious selection in
1913. Should their choice of candidate for the
next Executive chair erince the same sagacity,
and fall as we think it ought, upon Mr. FiLLMoRE
or Mr. WEBSTER. we are inclined to believe the
great Union party of the nation will gather around
Els Standard irrespectively of old party distinc-
lions, and secure his election by triumphant
majority. Alton Tclegrdph

Virginia Iron Works


We the undersigned, Wholesale Grocers and
Hardware Merchants of the City of Wheeling,
take this method of stating to the public that we
have been engaged for many years in the sale Of
Nails, and have bought the brand manufact ured
BY Hunter, Fleming S Co., of the Virginia Iron
Works-that our sales have not been confined 10
the city, but have been extended over large ex-
tent of country, aud we take pleasure in being
able to bear testimony to their uniformly good
character and standing abroad-that for finish
and workmanship they will compare favorably
with any,-but especially for the substantial quail. :
ties of strength, stiffness, and soundness, they are
unsurpassed by any other brand. We also con-
tdeatly believe that their model of manufacturing
nails from hammered IRON. and from the solid slab
is the best calculated 10 give strength and tough
ness to the nail. as well as avoid the tendency to
flaws and splitting which are the too common
defects generally.
