Farmers, Club.

The first annual meeting of the Lyon
County Farmers Club was held last Satur-
day, in pursuance of the constitution of the
Society, adopted at former meeting.
Only four members of the committee
appointed at the first meeting to ascertain
information in regard to the raising of cot
ton and other crops, reported. Mr.. Lock
German reported that there would be 80 aci es
of, cotton planted in Pike township; Mr..
Wheeler reported that SO acres would be
.sown in Emporia township; Mr.. Stanley
reported that but about 10 acres would be
planted in Americas township; Mr.. Priest
reported 8 acres would be planted in Cen
ter township, making. in all, about 100 acres
for these four townships. We are sorry
that the other members of the committee
could not report. They were probably pre-
vented from attending by the bad weather.
We are not disposed to think that they do
not take interest enough in the matter to
attend to it.
This being the day fixed by the consti-
tuition for the election of officers of the So
ciety, for the ensuing year, the meeting bal
loted for the same with the following result {:
J. H. Watson, President R. w. Stevenson,
Vice President ]. r. Swallow, Secretary {;
w. j. Carney, Treasurer; ~Thos. H. Stanley,
j. o. Way and N. Lockerman, Executive
Committee.
The next meeting is on the second Satur-
day in March.

Houses and lots have been low, and sales
few, for several years; but the beginning OF
another state of things is at hand. Houses
at low rents are in good demand; almost
any good house under $500 is in request.
For two years past very few buildings have
been erected. All at once rapid current
of emigration is pouring into the city. Ev-

and families have been awaiting for rooms

Railroads.

Senator Pomeroy has introduced a rail
road bill. He provides for road from
AtchisOn, by way of Topeka and EmpOria,
up the Cottonwood valley in the direction
of Santa Fe, with branch from Emporia
or some point between here and Topeka,
to point where the Galveston road crosses
the Usage river. This bill does not give us
as many roads as Senator Lanes, but seems
to US most practicable.
We see that bill has been reported to
the Legislature as q substitute for Gen
Lanes bill. which gives US a road from
Fl. Scott to Fl. Riley, passing through this
place, and another from here up the Cot
tonwood, to intersect the road from Atchi.
son to Santa Fe via Topeka.
OF all these schemes, Pomeroy's rather
suits us the best.

That the price of gold is entirely
too high is indicated by the fact that our
debt to Europe was probably never smaller
than it is now. The price has been run up
by speculation, in which the banks are part
ners, through their practice of making loans
on gold. 1t is perfectly well understood
that great Union victory, or the liberation
of some hundreds of thousands of bales Of
cotton, would bring gold down with crash
