CITY AND COUNTY.
housekeeping being in order, several
of our merchants are treating the fronts
of their stores to a new coat of paint.
DURING the month of March there
were fifteen marriage licenses issued in
Buchanan county by D. L. Smith, Clerk
of Court, whose revenue doth our
| county Golfers FILL"
NJ. GIEvERs, who for some time has
occupied Ungerer's block with a variety
store and candy manufactury, has re-
moved to B%ufington's Bridge, zeal the
Wapsie forks, where no will engage in
the same business.
l. W. EVANS & Co. have removed
their barber shop and laundry to Hage-
mans block, we the SO Cent Store,
where they have clean, commodious
quarters, and are prepared to give their
patrons satisfaction.
MRS. q. NJ. GILLETT has received her
spring stock of goods, comprising all the
latest styles in millinery, etc, and she
takes the opportunity of telling all her
customers of the fact through our col
umns this week. See her
ment in another column.
WILL WHITE, formerly an employee in
this Office, now editor and proprietor of
the Newell Mirror, has received the ap-
pointment of Postmaster Of that place.
Will has energy and good business abili-
ty, and will undoubtedly give satisfac-
ton in his official capacity. We con-
graduate him.
j.. W. WINsLow and family will re-
move their goods and chattels from In
dependence to Iowa Falls in a few days,
and there set up their household gods.
We understand the cause of this to be
that the latter place is more favorable
for Mr.. WIS business. He will still con-
tinue to travel in the interest of an east
ern boot and shoe house.
WITH the expectation of carrying
the State of Iowa this fall, and electing
u nominee for President two years
hence, it has become an imperative ne
cessity that we have a journal to advo-
cate our cause" says Byron, in the Con-
serratire this week, referring to the
Green-beg pardon-Nationals. Better
get a pair of bellows.
THE street sprinkler made it's regular
appearance again this week. The bust
ness of sprinkling Il dusty streets is
now conducted by Mr.. Geo. Head, in.
place of Mr.. Holderman. Mr.. Head has
erected a windmill on the east bank of
the Wapsie, with a large tank, and this
improved method is successful in furn-
ishing an abundance of water without
driving into the river.
The Burlington, Cedar Rapids &
Northern R. R. has established a
through passenger route between St.
Louis, Minneapolis and St. Paul, over
which a full outfit of magnificent Pull
mar Palace Sleeping cars will be run.
The time occupied between the aboye
cities will be 90 hours. This will make
the Iowa Route one of the most con-
v%enient in the West for the travelling
public, and an inducement that can be
offered by no other competing line.
Nj. BERBERICH is busily employed
with a large force of workmen in max
ing a thorough renovation of his build
ing on Main street, the Commercial
House. We understand that twenty
feet more of front will be added, and the
present rooms enlarged and made more
comfortable and convenient. When the
repairing shall have been finished, Mr..
Berberich will have one of the finest ho-
tel buildings in the city. We did not
learn as to whether he will engage in the
hotel business again or not.
MIR. X. BARTLE. as most of our read
ers are aware, has entered the farm ma
chinery business again, and taken pos
session of the Wigwam. He believes
in a liberal use of printers ink to help
his business, and according displays his
agencies in a double half column in the
BULLETIN. MI. Bartle has some first
class machinery, and he will undoubted-
ly give satisfaction to those of our far
mer readers who patronize him. His
advertisement will be changed weekly,
and it SHOULD be perused carefully.
Mr.. r. JACOBS has established a de-

garden implements, Oh the west side of
the river in the old Fonda block, three
doors from the bridge. Mr.. Jacobs has
resided among us for a great many
years, and is an honest, upright man.
