will certainly do we'll to carefully con.
suit the time tables Of the Baltimore and
Ohio road. Its celebrated fast trains,
its sure connections, and rates always as
low as the lowest, make it beyond all
controversy the best line west. Colo
nists are carried in first class cars on fast
trains, and every possible care is taken
to insure comfort and convenience.
Trains run through without change of
,ars tc Chicago, where direct connection
is made with al leading lines to the
west, northwest and southwest, making
hut single change of cars to Iowa,
K,usss, Nebraska, Texas, Minnesota.
&c. No other line can offer such advan-
tages as the Baltimore and Ohio.-Is
costs but very little time and trouble
to learn this, and in the end may lead
to tie saving of much Of both as well as
money. Above all things do not pur-

the most insidious, danger that besets

sort to such methods by the party In

utter abandonment of principles for place

the reckless extravaganza and prOfigacy

time has come when, by an honest and
economical administration of the gov
