FRIEND MEAD;
sir.

Lear SIT.
Believing that most Of your readers
are interested in our Railroad project, I
will say that believe the Committee
is satisfied with their success In the
portion of the county canvassed, the peo-
pie, both male and female arc alive to
their interests. In nearly every in
stance the question is chow much can
we do to secure the interest that will
accrue to us from the building Of the
road" Ihave met but two or three OPP
posed to the Railroad interests of our
county. A sample of their argument,
by Esq. Mildrum of Jamestown, a re-
cipient of many political favors, is, II am
able to aid the r. r. but feel certain
that my neighbors will bear my burden,
and that / will receive all the benefits
Of the road, the same as those who sub
scribe their hundreds
Comment on such men is unnecessa-
ry; the Intelligence of the citizens of
Howard county will probably give them
their true position.
have just returned from a visit to
Howard and Alton with friend Beadle,
and to show you the interest felt there,
in one day and two evenings we got
$4,000 from thirteen persons and Wis
tied only seventeen farmers out of the
eighty intelligent voters of those two
prosperous towns. We expect at least
800 from every land owner in these
towns. Howard Center, Saratoga,
Jamestown, Forest City and Chester,
responded to the full satisfaction of the
Committee as far as CANVAS sed.. I feel
that I express the unanimous opinion
Of the Committee in saying that the
Railroad interest is especially indebted
to r. Bayes of Foreston, Capt. Bennett
of Jamestown, J. F. Thayer of Howard
Center, Col. Sanders and Supervisor
Salmon of Saratoga, and the Rico Broth
ers of Riceville. If ever you go to
Howard, don't fail to call on friend Pet
tibone, and his estimable family, else
you will lose the best dinner that
could be got in the county.
Our Catholic friends of Alton are
about building church; success to
them; they deserve good house of wor
ship; such men as John Doyle and
Patrick McGrane, are credit to any
county. In the short space of four
years they have collected around them
Farming Utensils, herds of Cattle and
Horses, and opened up Farms that
would do credit to the county of 20
years. Every man in this county can
say wlthpride, II live in Howard coun-
ty;;" for the county will do justice to her
self and her sister counties. Some Of
our people feel as if Winnesheik is .un
just, but friend Mead, I have an abb
ding faith in the intelligence and JUS
tice of our Western people, and when
the farmers Of that county can pass OH
the question Of Railroad or not
Ra ilroad: they will do their
duty to themselves and to us.
Truly Yours.
