"REMovING PAUPER. This furnishes
a quite frequently recurring item in the
list of claims presented to the supervi-
sors, and the kind of service to the coun-
ty which it indicates has been consider
ably called in question. 1t would seem to
be either extending facilities for change
of tenement, transportation outside the
bailiwiclk, Or to the grave yard; and in
either case, rendered holens uolens
so far as the poor pauper is concerned,
suggestive of
"Rattle his bones over the stones,
For he's only a pauper whom nobody owns"
Cedar county certainly needs the
"Poor Farm" on the question Of an
appropriation for which a vote will be
cast at the October election, that pau
pers may have permanent home and
be cared for consistently and economi-
cally by the public. Time was
when the very small number of those
requiring public charity made the ques
ton Of the mode OF administering it, of
little moment. Blu. that time is now
past, as any one who was informed of
the total amount paid out yearly by the
county to individuals here, there, and
everywhere, for "boarding pauper,"
goods for pauper," medical atten-
dance" removing pauper," &c, would
certainly testify. \ collection of all the
objects of charity under one roof, and a
digniiied, systematic and humane meth
Cd of providing for their necessities
could not fail to be beneficial to them
and economical for the county.

RAILROAD.-The prospect for the
actual commencement of HOSTILE
ties-of business--on the Iowa South
western Railroad grow brighter daily.
The fact is. the building and opera
ton of the road from Clinton to Iowa
City can be positively assured by the GER
tajnty that 81 900 per mile will be raised
in the country traversed, and its pay
msnt guaranteed when the road shall
have been completed to certain specified
points along the line. To the immedi-
ate necessity of accomplishing this,
Clinton and Iowa City are both fully
awake. The former place, by the trans.
fer of the Midland enterprise to the
Northwestern Co, is freed from al! obi
cations in that direction, and ready to
take hold Of the Southwestern.
What is more, it will take hold, and
the necessary from Clinton Co. is sure.
Iowa City has already signed the petit
tions requisite to call an election, and
feels confident of being able to vote a
tax. Upton and Center Township
have pledged themselves to do consider
able-they can do more; but in the
meantime, We should like to hear from
Inland and Cass townships. If they
want railroad, it is time they SHOULD
show their hand. They wouldn't shout
der the tax, but were sure they could
do equally we'll otherwise. All
right! only dol They and all interested
should take home the fact that noO is
the time to strike. Action now will
will do everything for us; delay will
be everything against us.
