ket house just - badly - It does gas fac.
tory, police court, o. . post office.

CoxE TO DAvkNPoRr-ln looking over
Wednesdays issue Of the Muscatne Jour
nal, We notice that wheat 10 quoted ct fifty
sixty, and eighty Ave centa per busLel. At
Davenport, our produce dealers are paying
from 81 to &l.06 per bushel, and glad to
get it at that. Surrey the farmers will be
foolish to haul grain to Muscatine when they
can get double the price for it in this city.
