The document presents an 1870 Iowa statute enabling townships cities and incorporated towns to aid in building railroads. It details petition thresholds election procedures tax rates up to five percent of assessed value and conditions for fund collection disbursement and forfeiture if not used as voted. It also notes publication and approval dates and lists the act’s operative provisions and repeal clause.
