week, as announced. His theme was
his old one, self Made Men, Mr..
Douglass drew a full house. There
were very few empty seats. We can
give no synopsis OF the lecture, but
we mayssay, generally, that general
satisfaction was felt through the vast
audiences. Some disappointment. was
doubtless felt, by those who had
read Of his fiery claauence, AMI i'm
impass.oacl ora.ory, TO hnl HAT
none of this was exhibited by Mr..
Douglass in his lecture.
So well did the lecture please all
that the Institute contracted with
Mr.. Douglass to deliver his lecture
on Santo Domingo, the next evening.
III house was nearly as well filed
on the last, AZ IN the first evening, a
large proportion Of the Friday even
ing audience returning on Saturday
evening. The lecture on Santo Do
m'nso was more interesting than the
other, and the lecturer did himself
fuller justice therein, he having par.
TALLY recovered from the cold under
which he labored Friday evening.
Mr. Douglass attended the Con-
grega,ional Church, on Sabbath, and
accepted an invitation to address the
Sunday School.
Mr.. Douglass is ono Of the most
noted and notable men ct our coun-
try and his visit to Toledo is . me.

Tho proposal to extend the Toledo

pleted from Tama City to Toledo

Greek, through Spring Greek, GrunI

REPUBLICAN several weeks gince
seems to meet with favor all along
the line. Toledo, and the other por
lions OF lama county directly inter.
estcd, take hold OF the scheme with
cagerness. The Vice President oil
the 5. A. & d. road, and who re.
sides in Grundy county, has express.
ed himself in positive terms as favoi-
able to this projected road. He has
no faith IN the intention OF the s., A.

and Ackley, even il the road is built
through the country contemplated
west OF Marion. One of the chiefs
OF the s., A. & D. road says that the
road will be built directly west TO
the Missouri river, west OF Bucking.
ham, if built at all. All that the PEG
pie Of Grundy Center and other parts
of Grundy county hesitate about, is
their connection with and pledge to
the s., A. q ID. road. If they are
convinced that that road will not 90
to their place, they will favor the
route from Toledo, SO they assert.
We think 1t will not take them long
70 determine as to the probability OF
the s., A. Il D.. road going to Grun-
dy Center. The route indicated by
Col. Preston, straight west to The
Missouri river, is more in keeping
with the probable aims of an east and
west road, which that road contour
plates being and which II calls itself.
The argument tor he road has been
heretofore stated and need not be re-
1t is patent 10 every think
ing man,-cvery business man, every
enterprisiny man. All that is now
needed is the working up the interest

Republican for 1872.
Our readers will remember that,
during the Tart session of the State
General Assembly, the REpuBLIcAs
devoted a large share of its space to
a general report Of its proceedings,
and had a special correspondent at
the State Capitol.-in fact the report
Of tho Legislative proceedings was
nearly as lull as that Of the State
Register.
This year. as we are glad to be
able to our Legislative
Report will lie more full and minute
than it was for 1870. and we hope,
also, to lay it before our readers a
little earlier in general, than we
were able to do two years ago. Our
readers may rest assured that we
shall spare no reasonable expense in
furnishing them a full and satisfactory
report of what the wise men do at
Des Moines.
If any Of the daily papers which
hold their temper sufficiently to ex-
change with us will give a mod
crate report OF what is done in Con-
gross this session, we shall keep u
readers informed Of all important
transactions in that Political Mecca.
The comming year will be the
Presidential year-the year for which
the other three arc made-and all
intelligent persons desire to keep
themselves informed on current
events. The REPUBLICAN will IN
deavor to respond to their Just de-
sires IN this respect.
As heretofore, the REPUBLICAN will
cnleavor to faithfully and fully
chronicle ali local events of general
interest, in whatever part OF the
County the same may occur. To
this duty, particular attention will
be given. We recognize the value
and importance Of a local paper in
this respect and shall try TO merit
the patronage of all Interested in
county affairs.
The completion Of the branch road
from Tama City to Toledc,-the
reasonable expectation that it viii
be extended up Deer Greek to a dis
tant portion Of the State, the almost
certainty that the Grinnell, Cedar
falls AM Winona road will DE built |
TIN ough Tama county, during the
coming year,-a!l give a special
prominence to the county seat and
its official representative, which
mono can ru.,asidc. e
The terms Of the R~RPUBLrcAS wall
continue, through the year 1872. at
81 a ycar.-ii the SANE is paid in adj
vance, before the first paper is sent;
the price will be Sl,75 tor a whole
year. No subscriptions for a frac-
ton OF a year received at tins rcduc.
ed price.
~ Nearly every one of our
subscribers has a ncighbor. who docs
not take the REPUBLICAN,. A service
will he done such neighbor and an
assistance rendered us, il they will
call the neighbours attention to this
prospectus and terms and ask a sub
scription for The REpUBLIcAN for. the
coming year. All who desire the
political and historical education OF
their neighbor, will see at once the
propriety OF saeh a course. We are
unable to offer special premiums for
ubscribers.-we prefer 10 place the
price SO low that all can afford to
read the REPUBLICAN,. If
