A RAILROAD WAR.-Our Dubuque neigh.
bors nre bound TO be independent Of railroad
m~oncpolies. The III. Central refuses to take
grain or freight except on certain restrictive
conditions concerning its consignment at
Chicago. The Dubuquers quitely ship their
produce and freight to Savannah where it j.
taken By the Racine road and landed in Chi
cago At precisely the same cost as by the
Central. Everything now goes by way OF
Savannah. The Central is a heartless mos
napoly and VIC in the interior shall do well
IL we escape the grip Of its iron hands. we
need other railroad connections with Chi

We would suggest TO our Republican
friends that the next political contest will
doubtless prove the most active and desper-
ate Of our history, and that there is no means
30 effective for the promotion Of Republican
principles as the press. We believe the
BrLLrrlS has been somewhat instrumental
in advancing the interests Of the party in
this County, and We have no hesitancy in
requesting our friends to put forth an extra
effort to increase our subscription list. We
have enlarged the BULLETIN twice without
increasing the price, and now furnish a sheet
which in appearance, at least, will compare
we'll with many metropolitan papers Of the
East. We ought to have three hundred new
subscribers this fall. Shall we have them I?

The County Seat war In Fayette has been
ele sed BY the complete victory Of West Cn>
ion. The Fayette OJserrer saws the " csies
y, sanus are closed ior three Years; which
seems to indicate that the south halt Of the
county will never give up the contest, but
that the war is to be periodical,-waged as
vigorously rs the laws of the land will
permit. We feel sorry for Fayette, because
she is nearer to US than West Union, but we
would suggest that the most feasible plan in
the settlement Of the question would be the
annexation Of the southern tier Of townships
Of Fsyette County to Buchanan. Their
trade and interest are with US and they should
be legally attached to US. Still for all that,
We suppose the obstacles in the way Of such
. contamination are almost insurmountable.
