Cheap Water Transporta ton,

The New Workers. or a goodly portion of
them, favor a government double track
freight railroad from the Atlantic to the
Missouri, as solution of the transportation
problem. One reason for this is, they
wish to secure monopoly of the grain
traffic for their metropolis. But the peo-
pie of the Mississippi Valley know that it
will never do to wait for government
railroad, and that their best security for
cheap transportation is competing water
routes. The Mississippi river should be
cleared of Instructions with the least pos
sible delay, and canal opened from Rock
Island connecting with Lake Michigan, via
the Illinois and Michigan canal. This is
what the government should set about i'm
mediately. Bills are before Congress look
ing to these objects, and they should have
the vigorous support of every Western
member and Senator. There is danger
that our representatives will fail to speak
out, or to act, as the EFFICIENCY requires, and
we believe 1t would be well to remind them
and all the national authorities, that the
people of this Valley must have prompt
and substantial relief. To this end why
not hold Transportation Conventions and
give expression to the public sentiment I
We should like to see such gathering in
Rock Island, at an early day. Who will
move in this matter? What say the enter.

Dyspepsia Dyspepsia! Dyspepsia

Dyspepsia is the most perplexing Of all
human ailments. Its symptoms are al
most Infinite in their variety, and the for
lorn and respondent victims of the disease
often fancy themselves the prey, in turn,
OF every malady This is due, in part, to
the close sympathy which exists between
the stomach and the brain, and in part also
to the fact that any disturbance of the di-
gestive function necessarily disorders the
liver, the bowels and the nervous system,
and effects, to some extent, the quality of
the blood.
E. E. Kunkels Bitter Wine of Iron is a
sure cure. This is not new preparation,

practice of eminent physicians with unpar-

tended to cure all the diseases to which the
human family is subject, but is warranted
to cure Dyspepsia in the most obstinate
form. Kunkels Bitter Wine of Iron new
er fails to cure. Symptoms of Dyspepsia
are loss of appetite, wind and rising of the
food, dryness of the mouth, heartburn

that he is very much dissatisfied with the
treatment he has received during the pres

his favorite nominations rejected. That
he no longer exercises undisputed control
