HOW TO GO WEST"

Forty years ago, Illinois was as far west as
most people wished to go and journeys were
made in the legendary Prairie Schooner but
in these days of Progress and Improvement,
the word West has come TO mean Iowa, Ne
braska, Kansas, Colorado, California and the
Territories, and the Traveller reaches almost
any point therein by splendid Line of Rail
road.
This Line of Railroad is the burlington
Route, which starts from Chicago over tint
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy r. r., from In
dianoplis over the Indianapolis, Bloomington
4 Western Short Line, and from Logansport
over the Toledo, Peoria Il Warsaw r. r., ant
running through BURLINGroS, reaches Omaha
Lincoln, Nebraska, Nebraska City, st. Joseph
Atchison, Leavenworth and Kansas City, Con
Meeting with the Union Pacific, Kansas Pacif
ic and other Railroads running from thos'
cities.
Always go by way Of Burlington and yo'
will be sure to be right.
The Burlington Route has admirably an
swered the question, 'How to go West?' by tn
notification of truthful and interesting doc
ument, filed with facts in regard to Time
Connections, Accommodations. rates of Fare
and other interesting items, and illustrated b
| a large map, truthfully showing the Who'll
West, which they distribute free Of charge

By what Authority

Do the ladies obtain the right to pop
the question every four years? By au-
thority of the old Saxon law, which, so
far as can be learned, has never been
repealed:
"Albeit as often as leap yearre dothe
occurre, the woman holdeth preroga-
tive over the manne in matter of court
shippe, love and matrimonie, so that
when the ladye proposeth it shall not be
lawful for the mannc to say her nae
but shall entertaine her proposals in all
guide courtesie."
This law undoubtedly will stand good
until the constitution is amended per.
mitting women to vote and enjoy the
privileges that man does, when it neces'
sarily must be wiped out. We though
we would lay the law in plain words be
fore you, and if you desire to chang
your state, arm yourself with a copy o
the REPUBLICAN of this issue and ad
vance boldly on the matrimonial war
path,

y s1tpother Pioneer Gone.

From a correspondence Plimpton we
learn of the death of one Of our sub
seribers, and an old resident of this
county--Stephen, Cassell. He died at
the house of James Thompson, near
Lakeville, where he had made his home
for many years. He settled in this
county over fifty years ago. He was
among the first school teachers in ths
county, and gathered up much usefu
information wherever he went, which
he in turn readily impaired to others
A warm-hearted, devoted christian O.
firm temperament, and fearless expires
sion, he was respected by all WHIT
knew him. Green be his memory
Much credit is due Mr.. James Thompson
for the kind ness evinced toward tn
deceased in life, and the respect show
in death.
