MAKE lIoME AND FARMING ArTrAc-
TIVE. That is the ''plaiiornl" for farm
crs who desire their sons TO become
consented. successful agricultnrists. in
stead Of leaving gthe farm for vexatious,
hazardous and unhealthy avocations.
The best legacy for your sons is d sub
stantial edncation-moral. mental and
physical-including a practical know
ledge and love Of farming. They
should thoroughly understand some
occupation which is both useful and
healthy, and therefore honorable and
measurably reliable. This is Of far
greater consequence and value than
gift OF much money or many acres.
Make home and farming SO pleasant
and attractive that they will become
50 attached to rural life as to resist all
temptations to enter into uncertain
and speculative pursuits. The finan-
cial simooln which has swept over tho
land the previous year, in numerous in
stances destroying the accommodations
and dissipating tho horss b. individu-
ais. families. and communities engaged
in ccmmercialand specnlatiivcpursuits
teaches q lesson on this subject
which shonld be needed bv all classes,
and especially by the ruralists Of Ame-
RIGA. Il proves that agriculture. which
feeds Ill and clothes all. though tenn
porarily depressed, is the most sure
and permanently reliable occupation
for this life, as well as the best to fit
man for that which il to come. Far
lners, and farmers sons, read this les

MR, EDIroR:-W When Judge Hoyey and
myself commenced The canvass in Dubois
county, some three weeks since, it was as
certained. on comparison. that there was D
difference In the reading Of our copies u lhc
Lecomfton constitution. This difference
related more particularly to The OH section
ff the schedule, attached TO the constitution,
hating reference to the submission OF rhy
slavery clause 10 vote Of The people Of The
Territory. Judge iIoyey's copy bore date
The 81 day OF February, 1888, and purporteJ
70 be Senate document; with the mark 3!
The public printer upon H. Section nine, D,
the schedule TO his copy, reads as follows:
"Any person Offering 10 vote at the aforesaid
election, upon said constitution shall BE-
challenged TO take an oath 70 supper, th4
constitution Of the United States ard 10 sup
port this constitution. under the penalty 81
perjury, under The Territorial law"
My copy was contained iu ,he Congress
sional Globe Of December IS, 1857. The
9Th section of The schedule attached 10 il
reads as follows:--
"Any person Offering 70 vote al the aforc-
saId election. upon said constitution shall. III
take an oath 10 support the con-
s;iiuiion Of the United Sistss. and 70 sup
port this constitution, under penalty Of per-
Jury under the Territorial law"
very promptly pronounced Judge Ho.
vcy's copy misprin,. but as be vrhemen,Iy
insisted upon the Correctness OF his copy,
and a. i bore q later date than mine. and
o. there was no proof then within my rcoch.
% subsiantiate my position, conlented my
self BY making public d claraiicn. that I
would write 10 Washington City, and ascer-
tain which was righ, aud that would make
known the fact as soon as The evidence
81 ould be pl ced within my reach.

body had been forging copies of the consti-
