The Iowa State Reporter, pub
lished at Waterloo says:
The Cedar River runs mills at
this city valued at three hundred
and eighty one thousand dollars.
Again it says: 1.-THE mills Of that
city ship four hundred and thirty
barrels OF -four east, daily. .E4.
1t also says: The present popula-
ton of that city is four thousand
eight hundred, and increasing at the
tate Of one hundred per month.
It further adds the following truths
to the record of progress in the
Hawkeye State: ''Iowa is big
and fast state, and the people Of the
present age arc fast beginning to see
| it. It not only has less poor soil to
the acre, and bigger crops, and
handsomer girls. and sweeter babies,
and it also has built more miles of
railroad and in less time than any
other Commonwealth of the same
age, east or west, ancient or mod
ern. We now have 1850 miles Of
Railroads.&c. more than Missouri,
1920 more than Minnesota, $50
more than Wisconsin, and 420 more
than Michigan. These 1850 miles
cost us $57. 500, 900. In 1864 we
only had 500 miles. BY 1872 we
will double the number Of miles
again. If you wish to live fast. and
good, and happy. come to Iowa
the star State Of the Union.
The New Hampton Courier says !:
1T is reported that the Iowa mu-
tual Insurance Company, Wyoming,

We bow to conclusions formed on m con-

ment to back them, because In her own
province, though she cannot reason, she
Is very apt to be right. Clever women,
on the contrary throw intuition over and
aim at logic. They possess the analytical
faculty, and encourage Il In themselves.
They search Into the why and the where

AZ reasoning begins they dispense with
