ANOTHER RAILROAD RUMOR.
Dispatches Announce that Rock Island
will Absorb Burlington, Cedar
Rapids and Northern.

Saturdays dailies announce that it is
currently reported that the Chicago,
Rock Island and Pacific Railroad will
absorb the Burlington, Cedar Rapids
and Northern and merge the 1900 miles
of this line into its system. 1t has
been known for some time that the
Book Island controlled about three
fOurths of the stock of the B., G. r. &
N, and this move would simply mean
the absorption of the latter into the
larger system, and the government of
the same by the Rock Island, thus do
ing away with the headquarters and
officials of the Burlington.
Should this be brought about, it
would place Decorah upon one of the
very best railroad systems in the coun.
try, and there is little doubt that in
short time the service would be greatly
improved. The dispatches state that
it is not improbable that official an
nouncement of the above will be made
within thirty days.

the deal for the purchase of the First
City Bank, of Fort Atkinson, was be-
ing closed, but we were not permitted
to announce it. BY this purchase the
WinDesheik County Bank secured con-

this bank, will remain in charge un-
der the new management.

Electric Railroad News.

In an interview yesterday afternoon
with one of the local directors of the
new electric railroad company we were
informed that delegations along the
proposed line of road are coming in al
most constantly, bringing very en-
couraging reports as to what will be
done In their respective communities
in the way of donating right of way,
etc. 1t is recognized, of course, that in
aorder to make such project practi-
cable, the property holders along
the proposed line will be expected to
encourage 1t by donations of rights of
way, and other necessities, and our
people seem very willing to do this, and
to give any other assistance in their
power. A committee is expected here
from st. Paul this week to take up the
matter of running to st. Paul. The
gentleman with whom we talked as.
sured us that that this is no wildcat
scheme, and that he firmly believed
that the road would be built.

An Old Relic.

Gus. Eppler, of Strawberry Point,
was here from that place last week. and
brought along with him bible which
was translated into the German by
Martin Luther. The translation was
begun in 1922 and completed in 1884,
twelve years being required for the
task. 1t was printed in the German
language in 1865, and wood type was
used exclusively. The covers were
made of wood, covered with pigskin.
1t is quite a curio, especially for a
printer, as it shows the primitive meth
DDS employed in printing at that time.
The paper ia very coarse and the book
is about nine inches thick, fifteen inch
es long and ten or twelve inches wide
The bible also contains several engrav-
iDgs. The boo k was sold in 1853 for So,
and again in 1925 for the same sum but
an offer of $3.50 was recently made for
1t. The book isa very valuable proper
ty and it is hard to estimate it's real
worth h.-Elkader Argus.

DISPATCHES from Washington tell
an amusing incident of Gov. Shaw's
first visit to the United States treasury.
When the governor left here he was
arrayed in an unreasonable spring over
coat, slouch hat and baggy trousers.
In this raiment, he presented him
self at the treasury and wanted to see
Secretary Gage. He was refused i'm
mediate admittance and compelled to
wait in the public reception room. The
attendants had conceived the notion
he was Kansas farmer or Nebraska
populist evidently, but as soon as he
presented his card their attitude chang
ed as if they had been given an electric
shock. The governor was addressed as
Mr.. Secretary and the marble heart
gave way to salaams on every side.

The terms of Office of number of
the postmasters throughout the district
have expired some time since, and as
~ sthe appointment Of their Successors
has not been announced; and as a re-
suit much i'll feeling is being engender-
ed in different parts of the district on
this account. the patrons of the Of
fees and the aspirants for the appoint
ments feel that they are entitled to
know whether or not a change will be
made, and naturally resent this SEEM
ing disregard of their interests. This
is not right. When the term of office
of any public official expires, be he
constable, postmaster or president, his
successor should be ready to occupy
the position. The laws provide that
the term of office of postmaster shall
be just so long, and the man who deter
mines upon his successor is not fulfill
ing his duty if he does not announce
the appointment of such successor be-
fore the term of the present incumbent
expires.

When your home merchant presents
you with a bill don't allow the hair on
your spinal column to raise like porcu-

been insulted. The chances are that
he trusted you for the shirt on your
back and groceries to keep your family.
Speak kindly of him for you remember
that you like to have others pay you
cheerfully. A man whose temper rises
to ninty degrees in the shade when
asked to settle a just claim and feels
that his dignity has been trampled up
on is good man not to trust. New
