debts. There is no reason why country
merchant should trust our accounts SIX,
nine or twelve months without interest, and
be forced to pay interest to the Wholesale
merchants of Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Louis,
or wherever he may chance to trade. The
trouble now is, that many parties, whom
these country merchants have trusted, have
abused this privilege, and they in turn have
been forced to ask an extension on their pa.
per from the wholesale merchants.
Prices may not be exactly satisfactory,
but if the farmer has to pay interest on bis
store account, he will be better off in the
end by paying up now Commercial En-,

Surveys of the routes from Lyons to An
amosa, and from Sabula to Anamosa, are
now being made, with reference to the pro-
posed railroad over one or the other course.
The project is in the hands of heavy CAPT
talists, railroad men, who have an eye, not
to half hundred miles of track, but to an
extension norihwesterly into Western Min
nesota. The business men of Quasqueton
are again on the alert, and signify that if
the road is opened to Anamosa, there will
be no difficulty in extending it to that place
and beyond. The prospect is most eneour-
aging.-Lyons Mirror.
We are informed that subscriptions to
the amount Of several thousand dollars
have already been secured in Quasqueton
in aid of the above project. and that big
railroad meeting will be held in that place
some day next week-the precise time we
have not been able to ascertain. We GER
tainly wish our Quasqueton friends the
most abundant success in getting rail-
road, and if the BULLETIN can be made use
of in any way to further that desirable end,
we hope they will avail themselves Of it
without hesitation. The interests of lnde-
pendence and Quasqueton are identical in
this matter, and if they were not we have
no desire to advance tho interests of one as
against the other. We publish county
paper.
