make an effort to gain connection with
the Southern market, by building a
branch railroad from Muscatine to con-
meet with the Iowa Cent trail at Oskaloo-
sa. 1t presents our enterprise in the
following truthful manner:
The Iowa Central Railroad Companv
was organized last spring, the director.
being selected from among the most in
tiuential and wealthiest citizens of
Black Hawk, Tama, Poweshiek. Ma
haska, Napelle, Monroe and Appa-
moose counties. The road vii, run from
Cedar Falls, Uid Toledo, Oskaloosa. Ed
dyville, Abba. and south to the State
line, and will probably connect with
the North Missouri railroad, thus con-
meeting with st. Louis. AT Cedar Falls
it connects with the Cedar Falls and
Minnesota railroad, thus connecting
with st. Paul, crossing seven roads rum
ming from east to west i'm our own State
Biachf Hawk county has raised suffi-
Gent stock to grade, bridge and tie the
road to the south line of that county,
and responsible contractors have under
mediately south of Cedar Falls, and
have their contract already partly COM
pleted. Good parties have contracted
to build ten miles Immediately north of
Toledo, and are now at work Tama
county having already sufficient funds
to complete the road ready for the iron
through that county. Mahaska county
has secured nearly sufficient stock to
prepare the road for the iron tn rough
that county. Eddyville stands ready
to bridge the Des Moines at that point
Monroe and Appanoose counties give
COCO assurances OF doing their part by
the road. This will secure almost an
air line connection between 1T. Louis
and st. Paul, and do much for our State
by way OF securing "a connection for her
different railroads, giving transporta-
ton for her coal from the heart OF her
coal regions, and afiording facilities for
the bringing in Of pine lumber at all
seasons of the year; and, as this road
must necessarily compete to some ex-
tent, in freights, with the Mississippi
river, and east and west roads be affect
ed by these tariffs, this route will do
much for our people in reducing the ex-
orbitant charges now exacted from
them for transportation. This is live

built, as all the necessary capital stock
is nearly secured, and other portions OF
the work will soon be let; indeed, it il
the purpose of the company to have the
entire line under contract by the ifst
day of March next, and the policy pur-
sued by this road will succeed. as they
are working i'm a practical way to secure
the desired end, while other pro! ected
lines are killing time getting up the
supposed necessary wind work"
