although they are many. But let
the whole population be counted,
and full rations issued for all, and
we have l ,2s4 pounds as the amount
Of -four the County uses per day
making 46s,66O pounds of flour per
year.
Subtract this last amount from the
total amount of flour raised last year,
and we have surplus of 1884, ,2s2
pounds Of -four, equivalent to 574 ,372
bushels of wheat, to sell yearly.
Wheat Is worth at Peila 10 cents
more per bushel than it is here at
Knoxville. This 10 cents is cost of
freightage to which, on the
574,372 bushels We have to sell,
amounts to $5, 743.72 per year.
But if we had Railroad here at
Knoxville, we could not only save
this 10 cents per bushel for freightage,
but the wheat itself would he worth
more here than at Pella, because Of a
more direct connection with the great
grain market of st. Louis, and the
benefits of competition on Railroads.
However, let it go as above, and we
find that the Farmers of this County
are paying $5,743.72 every year, on
wheat alone, for Railroad, and not
getting one after all. This amount
would build almost two miles of
Road.
And in these calculations we must
not forget that we have to sell every
year not only wheat, but oats, corn,
potatoes, butter, eggs and other pro-
duce, and cattle and hogs, to the
amount of many thousands Of dollars
ON every cent of which this tribute
Of freightage has to be paid, and
paid by the Farmers, who, in the
end, have to pay everything. Be-
sides this, not only the Farmers but
all the rest of the people have to buy
all their Goods from the East or
South, and pay similar tribute on
every dollar of such imports.
Looking over these matters, then,
as we often do, it seems to us that
the Farmers of Marion County, if
they would but open their eyes to
the facts, could not rest easy upon
their beds at night until they got a
Railroad.
What we want Of a Railroad is,
direct connection with st. Louis and
It's RicaU rriH5''o'PPI .....s % ~~---- =. =
Movement, as well as room for COM
petition over routes already estab-
lished. What we have to offer for 1t
is, unbounded wealth of easily ac-
cessible coal, immense agricultural
and other freightage from a County
already one of the ''big wheat Coun-
ties" of the State-and such an
amount of money as our people will
contribute towards the building of
the needed Road.

Republican State Ticket.
County officers.

The election tins rail, though OF
not so special interest in the State at
large as was the one last year, will be
the most important one in this Coun-
ty that we have had for years. We
shall have to elect two Representa-
tives, Auditor, Treasurer, Sheriff,
Surveyor, School Superintendent,
and Coroner.
For Representative, on this side of
the river, there should be, we think,
but one name presented to the Con-
vention-t that of our present Repre-
sentative elected to fill vacancy
unless he should choose not to run.
Custom has it in this County that the
other side of the river should present
its own candidate; and unless there
should be objections apparent, this
presentation will doubtless decide the
choice. 1t is perhaps too early to
guess whose name may be thus
brought forward.
The Auditors office is the most
important in the County. Unless it
is properly managed, great loss and
confusion must ensue. 1t demands
the clearest head and the best busi-
ness talent. The salary is $1,000; and
candidates will be plenty. And the
same remarks apply in proportionate
degrees to the Offices of Treasurer and
Sheriff.
For Surveyor and Sheriff the most
suitable men are also to be chosen.
For the former Office there may be
some mecompetition; but as to the other,
the Office may have to search for the
man. Yet 1t Is one or tne most InI-
portant offices in the County, and
needs a man of experience and judg-
ment as well as education. We
should be glad if this Office were en-
tirely separate from politics-as it
might be, for instance, if the Repub-
licans would nominate for it Demo-
crat on their ticket, and the Demo
Gratis Republican on theirs, thus
securing an opportunity of two APP
parently unbiased choices-but there
is no probability Of any such arrange
ment.
AS to Coroner, there will doubtless
be some contest-tO see who can be
got 10 take it. But there may be
some duties for him-the Sheriff may
die or resign-and SO the Office must
be filled.
We refrain now from any, illusions
for or against any of the prospective
and possible candidates for these OFF,
ces, for sufficient reasons. But we do
most earnestly urge that the voters
should reflect upon these matters
now, and send to the Nominating
Convention delegates who will select
for each position not only a man
qualified and suitable, but one who
will at the same time poll the full
vote of the party. There's no use in
picking feathers about the matter:
the bone is right here. We polled
last year a total of 1850 votes for Grant
and Seymour, and in this heavy vote
there was only SG as majority. I'm
migration and emigration have
changed the numbers of voters con-
siderably since then-just how, we
cannot say; but at any rate, SO small
majority in SO large vote necessi-
tates the utmost good sense and wis
dom in making our nominations.
The Convention will probably be
held about the first of September.
Let us come to it prepared to work
for the best interest Of the County
and the party, and to sacrifice some
what Of our individual preferences,
if need be, for the common harmony
and good.
