TO the Citizens Of Howard County
AND VICINITY:

FELLOW CITIZENS: Your commit
tee make through the press, FINAL ap-
peal to you in favor of your Railroad in
terest. On careful examination we
are satisfied that a Railroad will be
built Immediately West from McGregor
to some point on the Cedar River; we
are also satisfied that you have the adj
vantage over all other routes in point of
distance and cheapness of construction {;
also you have the first promise from the
company. But Fellow Citizens, other
routes have many advantages in age
and wealth over you. If you get the
road, it will take the united efforts of
every man in the county; you will have
to merge every personal and sectional
interest ia the one great and paramount
object of all. No man or community
should endanger the we'll being of the
county by intruding his personal inter
est in the way of the public welfare
Each man fyou can and should make
it your special business to see that the
stock in your several towns is promptly
taken The committees of the county
and the townships, have only joint in
tcrest with you; you should not wait to
be cooxel to do your duty, but sign cv-
cry dollar you think you can pay, and
then take your team and bring in every
careless man in your town, and let ey-
cry man in your county feel that if he
refuses or ncglects to do his part, and
We lose the road by such negligence, he
may expect in future to be regarded as
recrcant to himself and his county. No
sane man questions but that if we sink
every dollar of of our stock, yet secure
the road, that We have saved ourselves
in the enhanced value Of our property.
We hear many say, We are poor, and
cannot take stock we'll you always
will be poor ifyou pursue such course
70 the Mothers and Daughters of
Howard County We would say; you all
like good houses and tho luxuries and
comforts of life, yet but few of you can
secure them while land is only worth
s. per acre, and the cost of transporting
its products to the river is 80 cents a
bushel. Get a Railroad, and secure to
yourselves it's advantages in obtaining
the benefits that follow in it's trair.-
With road the farm Of 100 acres in
this county is, for all the purposes of
living, worth as much as the farm of an
equal number of acres in the Eastern
States, costing $4,000. Here we can
raise enough morcto pay the difference
in transportation, besides the saving in
labor, leaving the balance of the time to
mental cultivation and the development
of our social relations. In conclusion
We would say that if you would have a
Railroad, you must put your shoulder
to the wheel and lift every pound you
are able to, and remember those get help
who help themselves. Remember, that
to get the road, we must subscribe
100000, and that should he done this
week, as the engineers are soon to be at
Postville on the preliminary survey to
this county or some point south. Do
not convince yourselves that strangers
will come here and build our road and
let US while away our time and infu-
ence upon objects that are Indifferent to
such road.

Chairman of County Committee.

COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
The following persons are elect

auaintance extends the interests
of the people are, in their selection
entrusted to safe hands.

The election being over, the
country can now breathe frcer
and easier than during the can
vass. This respite from partizan-
ship. will be by none more accep-
tably received, than by ourselt.
During the campaign, duty to our
party, and, as we believed, to the
best interests of the nation, COM
PEELED us at many times to neglect
the general reader, and advocate
the political principles and policy
that to us seemed adapted
to the growth the prosperity and
the perpetuity of the American
Union. But these things oc-
cur only once in four years, and
we are heartily glad not oftancr.
In our last issue we said we
should delay our next paper day
or two for the election returns. -
We have met the enemy and have
tidings of the result. We have
been to the head waters of Salt
Rivor and returnedwith a winter
supply of paper. Douglas and
Johnson and Breckenridge and
Lane, were there making merry
of the joke they had played.
Washington, Jefferson, Madison,
Franklin and the other patriots
of the revolution were there with
the Constitution, loking rather
grave over the idea that the sacred
instrument had been repudiated
by the supporters of Lincoln and
his principles. We are neither
disappointed or disheartencd at
the result. The Democracy had
the power in the Federal Govern
ment, and the ability to keep it.
Like the dog in the fable, they
have dropped the bone of meat to
grab the shadow, and they've got
it.

The Island Of Cuba, in spite of Span

IS one of the most prosperous portions

is estimated at 100000, of which
nearly $4,000 are white inhabitants,

and $4,000 A,iatics and Indians. The
sugar estates are immensel y productive.
Twenty three Of the principal planta-
tons, comprising about 100000 acres
of land and TO-, slaves are valued at
f3,0OO,O00. These tweaty three es-

the worth of which was Ct each box

1900 sugar plantations in Cuba, the
exported products of which amounted TO
about 60, 100000 per annum
What shalt we do for coffee?
It appears from statistics recently
published that the consumption
of coffee is increasing much more
rapidly than the production. Last
year the total consumption of
Europe and the United States
alone, was 100000 tons, while the
production of all countries was
but $4,000 tons, The probable
consumption of the present year
is estimated at $4,000, and the
probable production at 274,O00;
and of next year the former at
