The latest railroad rumor is the
possibility of the Rock Island ''short
line" train running up to Postville
in the evening instead of stopping at

connect there with the freight which
would bring passengers into DEBORAH,
and would also take passengers from
the morning freight going south at
Postville. This arrangement would
be quite unsatisfactory to Decor ahians
who feel that the passenger train
should be run through to this city,
and leave here in the early morning
for the sonth.
