TO H
TRAVELLING PUBLIC.

1t is the duty Of all persons before
starting on a journey to ascertain by
what route they can reach their destina-
ton with the least trouble, and if there
are two or more roads leading to the same
point, to decide which is the safest and
~pleasantest to travel.
We take pleasure in stating, that the
CHICAGO AND NoRTH-WEsTERN RAIL
WAY is the Oldest, and several miles the
shortest, route between Omaha and
Chicago. Within the past two years the
road bed has been put in admirable con
dition, and almost the entire line has
been relaid with steel rails.
The Depot in Chicago is centrally To-
Gated, and as their trains arrive there
thirty minutes in advance Of all other
lines, passengers can always be sure of
making Eastern connections. For all
points in Northern and Eastern Iowa,
you should purchase tickets via Mar
shall, Cedar Rapids or Clinton. For
points in Northern Illinois or Wiscon-
sin, via Fulton; and if you are going to
Chicago or East, you should, by all
means, purchase your tickets by the
Old Pioneer Route
THE CHICAGO AND NORTHWESTERN.
You will find on all the trains Pull
mar Sleepers, new and magnificent Day
Coaches. and the best Smoking and
Second Class Cars now on any road in
the United States.

upon a second choice the Republicans
have gained an incalculable advantage.

The Democrats are happy. A Re-
publican has been found who will pub
licly declare his belief in Tilden's hon.
esty. Hickok is his name. He lives
in Burlington, VT. Now, VINO will
vouch for Hiekokp Unfortunately he
was a "pard" of Tilden's in some Of his
exploits as a s'railroad-wrecker." He
has no motive for ''squealing," but, on
the contrary, is evidently prompted by
self-interest to enter his protest, which
is at the same time his own plea Of .not

He admired the bright, sparkling waters of
our rivers and lakes, the rich verdure of
the fields, our neat looking dwellings and
grounds, our forests, and above all the
intelligent and well-behaved crowds of
people that he found at the meetings
where he spoke. Having returned to
PEORIA his home in Illinois, he said in a
speech to his neighbors; II want to tell
you the Republican party is the freest par
ty that ever existed. Down there in what
you call puritanical New England there is
such an intellectual liberty as there is in
no other part of this globe. iApplausc.) }
