AN EDITOR WHIPPED.
have given to MIR. King, a member of the
Iowa Legislature, very unusual prominence.
He is a Wing. Al an early part of the SEES
sion, il was deemed necessary, to secure the
election of Locofoco Senators, to brbe one or
Two OF the Wings. The first attempt was
made upon the integrity of Mr. King, by a
Locofoco agent named Marshall. The terms
were stipulated aud a tender of a portion of
the money made and perhaps small portion
received, 10 bind the bargain. When this
was done, and proofs of the infamous conduct
ofthe Locofocos were obtained, Mr.. King,
in his place in the House, exposed the whole
affair. Great excitement followed and all
the walls of wrath were opened upon him.
In special manner was he the object of
the most fagrant.abuse from the Locoloco
paper al Iowa city. The editor, whose name
is Palmer, called him 'scowardly bully"
and so abused Mr.. King as TO determine him
to inflict personal chasiisement upon him.
Accordingly, he met Palmer in the lobby OF
the House knocked him down with his fist,
aud was proceeding TO give him sound drub
bling when Palmer's friends interfered, and
took King off his prostrate body. Palmer
was not content, it SENS, TO take the whipping
inflicted under such circumstances, but pro-
cured warrant to be issued, on his affidavit
that King had assaulted him with a deadly
weapon which he deliverd TO be loaded
pistol, with The intent to do him bodily
injury. King was arrested, and several coun.
sci employed on each side.
After the examination of witnesses, Pal
mer.s counsel entered a nolle prosequi.-

reason of the elevation TO the Field Marshal
ship of three of the Oldest Generals in the
English army there are now nine ield-mar-
shals: they are the King of Hanover.

King of Bugium, the duke of Cambridge,
Prince Albert, the duke of Wellington, the
Marquis of Anglesea, Sir G. Nugent, and
Lord GrosVenor. This rank, the most eleya-

stow, is considered as purely honorary, and
of all these who are invested with ii in Eng

young men would make more by following il,
even though they hired fhrus, than they could
! in trade. lie mentioned an instance In illus
tratiun. Six individuals who had successive
| ly taken one farm In Danvers, with nothing
but their hands to depend upon when they
went on the farm, eUch retired from the ibrm
after staying four or five years, and now own
farms of their own. One ofthem purchased
farm at an expense of $4,000 or 7000,-
These individuals carried OH the farm at the
haiUeS.
Mr. Lincoln, ofWorcester, said he still held
TO the opinion which he expressed n week or
TWO SINCE that farming is not profitable, and
that it is not possible for farmers generally TO
make profit over and above the fair eX-
penses ofliving. A vast proportion of the
farms in this Commonwealth are ncumber-
ed, and, generally speaking, where farm is
inherlted,th posscssor docs not usually place
himself in better situation after years ottoil,
than at first. Mr. Lincoln said he was afraid
that there was tendency so eXaggerate in
some ofthe statements made at these meet
ings, and that 1t was wrong TO allow the state-
ment to go forth from the meeting that farm
ing is invariably profitable. as it might tend
to deceive many young men into investing
money in II farm which would result in u
loss.
MAYOR wheeler offered the following reso-
luton, which lays over until next week for
consideration:
Resolved, That in the opinion ofthis meet
ing immediate measures ought to be taken
by colleges and other literary institutions, to
give direct and positive instruction in the art
and science oil agriculture.
Mr. Russell mentioned farm which he
owned few years ago, but afterwards sold
for $4,000. This farm he let for one year, to
u young man with family, mt rent of five
per cent on the value ofthe farm. lie I'M
derstood the young man to say that the prof
it OF five cows paid the rent ofthc farm. The
young man retired from the farm al the end
ofthe year with about 500 which he had saw
ed. Mr. Russell related several other instan-
ces Of the like success.
Lieut.. Gov. Reed said that he was grntifed
TO hear such statements as had been nude at
this discussion with regard TO the profit of |
farming, but ms the best farmers usually at
tended these meetings, their experience is
hardya fair criterion. He hoped that farm
ors would also give the experience of some
oftheir neighbors and state if any of them
fail to make farming profitable,amd the cause.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE on the

The undersigned attended a trial by fire OF
three iron safes, known as Gayler 8, hich =
and Wlders Tor Herring s)Salamander Safes,
on the morning of the 18th January, 1916.
The safes were placed in furnace con
structed of brick, about five feet high, ana III
the same relative position. Each safe was e&-
amined, and believed to be in perfect order
A number of account books were put in the
book case, and several papers in the drawers Of
each safe, and the doors locked and the fuel,
consisting of charcoal, pine and oak woodland
rosn, was applied, ignited, and renewed twice
during the day
The fire was very intense, and was suffered
to remain burning until the following morn
ing, when the safes were removed, Gayler's
safe was found to be in such order as to be un-
locked, when the book case and contents were
found to be in a good state of preservation
The contents of the other safes were n mass
of burning charcoal.
We consider the trial to have been conduct
ed with perfect fairness. For further particu-
lars, reference is made to our individual state
