Most of our citizens come forward and

DRINKING WHISKY.

What do you drink whisky for! Do you
know? You don't knowY Well, We would
like to know who does. 1t is vile practice
in which politicians, common people, all the
balance Of mankind, and even editors and
lawyers indulge. 1t is a very mean practice.
It destroys the intellect, kills the body and
damns the soul. The devil won a great vic
tory when he introduced whisky into the
world. He knew what he was about. 1t
was his business to fill his region with souls,
and he knew that whisky was the best re-
cruiting officer for the armies of perdition
that he could employ. We have few words
to say to whisky drinkers-dont touch tt
1t Injuries, it ruins, it kills. The kindest,
truest, best hearted men in the world drink
liquor, and drink it to excess. God, and
God alone, knows the struggles of such men
to resist temptation. He alone knows how
earnestly they pray to be delivered from evil.
Oh how many we know, kind hearted, true,
loving men who are rapidly passing down to
death on the rushing tide Of intoxication. -
DO you drink! Stop to. day for your own
sake. DO you know friend who sometimes
drinks to excess, but who is striving to lead
sober life. You do! Well, don't tempt
him. 1t isl great crime to use your inhu.
ence for the destruction Of fellow creature.
If you will injure yourself, do so, but don't
be instrumental in the murder Of your neigh
Dor. -. ........

D. & s. G. r. R.--In speaking Of thi

D. s. G.. r. R.--In speaking Of this
road the Independence Guardian says:
This road is doing very fine business this
fall. Its rolling stock and power ia entirely
inadequate for the demands upon the compa-
ny. Two trains each way are run daily, and
each train will average over 90 cars. Last
week the whole freighting capacity Of the
road was taxed to carry cattle and hogs
Extra trains were run on Sunday last, and
yet the shipping demand ia not quarter
met. Here every particle Of storage room is
taken up with grain awaiting shipment, and
there is any amount of grumbling at the
Company. ... saAa ! es3 s..
The passenger business is also large. Two
passenger coaches in each train are generally
inadequate to accommodate the travel. Pas
sengers swear heartily at the slow rate of
speed necessitated by the freight business
connected with the passenger trains Why
cannot the management give us, with all this
business, an exclusive passenger train. Ger
tainly they would crafty every one who has
occasion to pass over the road, by doing so.
Five hours from Independence to Dubuque is
wearisome speed for railroad travel. We be-
lieve it is the Company's intention to raise
the fare on the road from Dubuque to this
point to $3.50. and to Cedar Falls to $3.50,
or about 81 cents per mile. II they would
give us more rapid rate of travel no one
would object to the increase Of price. We
trust the Company will find it convenient to
do So ga. ..t- . r Es.I. r.s

ance of just criticism, all are obliged to ad-
NIT that Fairbanks Scales are without ex-
ception, the best ever invented We know
whereof we affirm, because we have tested
their value, and are fully satisfied Of their
superior merits. The introduction of these
scales has wrought revolution in the trans.
action of various business, and their accuracy
is such that uniformity in weights has been
established all over the country, thus making
them national legalised standard. Nor
are they confined to the United States !;
they have found their way to almost every
part Of the civilized world, and are adapted
to the standards Of all countries, so that it
may be said, all nations, if not /" weighed in
these balances" at least weigh by them.-
