I war to chr5nicle Every Presidential ele ton
| is fight f + the lives of hundred thousand
individuals, so that it has been aptly STYLED
campaign.
Another evil arises from a want of care as to
the htness OF those appointed to the civil SER
vice. 1t is this: Some people will not inquire
as TO the fitness of their clerks. A railroad
train will sweep off the track and thousand
lives rushed into eternity, because the man
whose duty it was to set the switch right has
stopped to tell a good story; or clerks will
make way with company funds because their
want of fitness has been no barrier to their APP
pointment What shall we do then? II we
have a swamp in the middle of our city do we
let it remain? No. we drain it. Then let us fol-
low similar course aud drain this great army
of appontees, and see nobody is in ofhce
who has not proved their fitness. MIR. Curtis
said that when the civil service OF the country
had come to such a pass that the Secre-
tary of one administration told the chief OF
one Of his bureaus that when man brought
him, the chief, a letter. urging his appointment
he was to take no notice of it because he gave
the letter to get rid of the applicant, he
thought it was time that the civil service was
purged.
1t is now proposed to abolish Mr.. lite Bar
nacle and put into Office the men "who know
to do it," He hardly thought that an aristoc-
racy would be formed by this system when the
majority of offices were clerkships of one or
two thousand dollars year value. If people
object to the system proposed because it is mon
archical, we must remember that our country
is not SO old but that we can afford to accept
what is valuable and has proved valuable in
others much olders. 1t we are going to fall
back upon prejudice, then will our eagle turn
into buzzard. We shall be barbarans if we
consider we can learn nothing from anybody
and that we monopolze the best things of the
world. When man thinks he knows every
thing he generally knows very little Let us
never forget that those who boasted they knew
most in this country were the men who inau-
gurated the rebellion. Let us not forget the
Generalization of the civil service is truly ap-
palling and that the people must grasp hands
and contend against the vampires, the poll
ticiaus. The woman question, the Chinese
question, all that is important is involved in
the conflict. Let the bowling of the defeated
politicians be the music by which we march OH
to victory, as the rebel yell was the music
under which our soldiers planted the stars and
stripes on the enemys walls

This road runs through the richest and most
thickly settled portion of this magnificent
State, and is the only link wanting to connect
st. Louis and st. Paul by direct line. 147
miles shorter than any other.
1t runs through the great coal fields of South
ern Iowa to the North where coal is indispen-
sable and must be carried.
1t runs from, the great lumber regions of the
North, through a district of country which is
destitute of this prime necessity.
IT DOES NOT RUN THROUGH WILDERNESS
where it would wait for years for population
to give it business, but through tier of coun-
ties which are now producing about twenty
million bushels of grain, most of which is freight
for railroads.
Forty-fve miles are just diminished, ard the
Superintendent reports that on the portion
open tor business the net earnings are more
than the interest liabilities.
Sixty miles more are graded, and million
and a hllf of dollars have already been expend-
ed on the work.
The mortgage is made to the Farmers Loan
and Trust Co., and bonds can be issued only
at the rate of SIG, 900 per mile, or only hall the
amount upon some other roads. Special secu
rity is provided for the principal and for the
payment of interest.
First mortgages upon most railroads are the
very safest investments, and so far as we CA.
learn, there is not single completed line in
the Northwest which is not only paying its in
terest, but good dividend upon its stock.
The immense grain and other freights to be
carried away, and the domestic supplies to be
brought in, ensure profitable business.
First Mortgage Bonds for so small an amount
upon road running through such rich and
already well-settled part eff Iowa, can well be
recommended as perfectly safe as well as very
profitable investment At the present rate
they nav about ten per cent on the invest
ment. Over s4OO 900 have been taken by the
Company's officers and others Interested IN The
