To the Farmer.
SpRINGDALE, Sept. Isl. 1850

SpRINGDALE, Sept. LIST, 1909.
We wish to call the attention of the
farmers and producers of Cedar county,
to the approaching County Fair to he
held the 6thennd 7th of next month, and
solicit general attendance. You will
many Of you recollect that few years
ago there was an organization for Coun.
ty Agricultural Society, but for the last
two years has been extinct and hearing
Of no move in the central or eastern part
Of the county to renew the Association,
aud feeling the necessity of such socie-
ty, conclu led to organize one in this
corner of the county. But in assuming
the name Of the County Society, we do
not wish to be selfish aud work against
the interest of the other portion of the
county Whenever you think best to
take hold and act for yourselves, or in
connection with us, we will join you in
promoting the best interest of the coun.
ty. -... ..
But l would here make few sugges.
tions: The Cedar river is very great
obstruction to direct communication be.
tween the different portions of the coun.
ty, and many times entirely impossible,
aud not to be depended on for any set
time, and sometimes for nearly the whole
season. In view of this fact aud the ad
vautages Of smaller Agricultural Socie.
ties, l believe it would be profitable for
the farmers and producers to meet in
some form as often as once in three
months, and hold kind of Fair-some.
thing after the English form--not alto
gether for exhibition to see who had the
best, but to exchange for mutual benet,
all kinds of stock, and seeds of all the
grain and vegetables, discuss all matters
Of interest to the producers of every
class, and endeayor to build up home
manufactures and make home marke,
that VIII put stop to those ruinous
fluctuations in prices, which are now Sc
common.
And in addition to this have a Farm
er's Club organized in every School Dis
trict, to meet during the fall and winte,
evenings, to discuss all matters of inter.
est to the producing classes. None but
those who have had the benefit of such
associations can appreciate the value Of
meetings and discussions of this kind.
We fully endorse the sentiments e1
pressed IN the Adrertiser of the 9th ult.
10 speaking of the County Fair, and
hope there will be a full attendance, and
we will cndeavor to make it as useful and
interesting as our means and circum

A. c. Dodge, Democratic candidate for
Governor, has been in Office nearly TWEEN.
ty-one years, during the Territorial or.
ganization of Wisconsin and Iowa, and
since Iowa has been a State, residing
during that time aud nominaly the last
twelve years Mt Burlington.
Thos. 8. Wilson, Democratic cahdi.
date for the Supreme Bench, has been a
Judge of the District Court since the Or
ganization Of Iowa Territory, period of
twenty-onc years, and always fishing for
u. 5. Senator to the detrimcnt Of his
official duties. He holds the Office Of
District Judge at this time, even while
he is candidate for Supreme judge
He has no idea Of resigning one Office
till he is sure of another and better one.
Chas. Mason, also Democratic candi-
date for the Supreme Bench, has been
IN Office over twenty-one years, and is
now member of the Educational Board.
These are specimens Of the leaders of
the Democracy in Iowa. These are the
men who are patriotic above all others,
and are eternally saving the country
They appear to think Iowa could not ex-
ist day with them out Of Office, while
the truth is they could not exist out of
office. At all events, Wilson and Mason
are SO unwilling TO try an experiment
that they will not resign the Offices they
now hold Dodge is perfectly sure of an
office whether elected or defeated: If
elected, he will be Governor of Iowa. If
defeated, the President will have an of.
fee ready for him, just as the President
did when the people of Iowa rcpudiatcd
him-as Buchanan invariably provides
for his defeated satellites. Gay

The Discussion,

Gu Monday last between the Gubernato-
rial candidates came off pursuant to ap-
pointment, on the steps of the new Court
House, to the satisfaction of all Repub-
lcans, and to the entire discontinue of
the Democrats who heard it. Some
Democrats did not hesitate to give utter
ancc to their feelings of disgust, at the
course of their champion, and the rest
gave expression to their feelings in long
and lengthning countenanccs. About
1000 people were in attendance and
gave attention to the close We noticed
several ladc, in hearing and we think
their presence had good effect ON the
General, q. he did nc. give way to his
temper as he has done on former similar
occasions.
We shall not attempt to give a review
Of their speeches to those who were
present it would be useless, and to those
who were not present, our pen would fail
us to convey any idea of the complete
rout Of the Democracy. Mr. Dodge
came hcrallcd by his organs as "thc best
mau in the State and we expected to
see man who, to say the least of it, was
the equal of a majority Of our State Off
GERS and politicians, but in this We were
disappointed. He said that he owed tho
people Of Iowa, for keeping him in office
near twenty years. a debt that lie could
never pay. We can fully endorse that
statement, and say that he never has paid
any part Of il, if his efforts last Monday
were fair specimen of his abilities -
lie stated that he introduced into the
United States Senate a bin, which he
had not even read, to organize the Ter
ri,ory of Nebrasks, trusting to the
shrewdness Of the "Lttle Giant TO
make it all right. Mr. Kirkwood show
cd to US the bill as it was after s. 4.
Douglas bad changed it to sui. his ideas,
aud strange to tell, it resembled General
Dodge's bill only in the enacting clause
The introduction Of that bill, and hi.
having voted for the Fugitive Slave law,
were about the only instances of his sa-
gaeions craftsmanship to which the Gen.
referred Ii there are any more iliustri.
Gus instances, We hope his friends will
= not fail to point them out, He claimed
that the Homestead law and the Pacific
Railroad were Democratic measures. If
that is true, why, we ask, have the Dem
ocrats, having an overwhelming maje1i-
ty in both houses of Congress, failed to
pass laws to that effect? The reply must
be that the Democracy are NOT in favor
Of those measures
The General told US that he drank nei- +
Their lager beer or whiskey,--hc did not
include brandy. One would hardly ex.
peet that lie, a man who had been bask- /
ing beneath the smiles Of the Queen Of .
Spain, with salary of $4,000, would !
condesccnd to drink the same kind Of
liquor tha: farmers and mechanics drink.
That Dodge, and the leaders Of his party.
are in favor Of the repeal of all laws
against the free sale Of liquor was evil
dent 10 all his Observers Gen. Dodge
stated that he to day found the Rcpabli-
cans occupying the same position on the
slavery question that the Wings did
eleven years ago when bespoke at this
place. Did he then denounce the Wings
as abelitioaists That was one of his
main argument, last Monday. Mr. !,
