WINTHROP. MAY IL. 1874


Mir. EDIToR:-I notice in your paper
of last week under the head Of "The Prof
its of Share Farming" it is alleged that
rented Of one J. H. Campbell 50 acres In
Fremont township for farming purposes.
The facts in this case are, the land in
question was mine and in my possession
until the goth of April, 1873, which the
same passed into the possession Of John
II. Campbell. In the fall of 1872, rent
cd said land, agreeing to furnish house,
wood, tools and everything necessary for
working it and also pasture for cows,
horses, and grass to make hay for game
for winter. Sometime in the spring Of
10 saw and conversed with said Camp
bell, told him what had done, at which
time he claimed one third for use of land
and consented to his having the share
drew from the land.
Time passed, harvest and thrtshing
done and grain marketed and the result
was was not paid for what l had fur
nished, receiving nothing for use of land
and as Campbell wanted me to make re-
turns. did SO by making out my account
with the land, which he ut first pretend
ed to treat as huge joke, then got my
bin and portions of my letter published
in your paper, for what object he and his
lawyer can only tell can't. fl hav.
wronged j. II. G., l am willing to make
full reparation.
If right as facts appear, 1 can't SCI
what cause he has for blowing and pub
fishing his and my private affairs as III
has done. Respectfully yours,

A Farmer and CrAngsr's Opinion Of
Their Operations.

OHLwkIN, May D, 1874
Mr. EDITOR :-Onr vicinity has Of late been I'M.
usually cursed by shysters who are canvaeeing the
country selling taking orders for different kinds
|.0f commodities. In the first place there came Z
swarm of bummers from Chicago, selling gro.
men 70 70 the farmers IN tbs Vicinity, succeeded
In taking some very large orders for groceries, At
prices that any of the honest dealers in Indepen-
dence would have been glad to duplicate. Some
paid for on arrival. who, FOR the past ten years.
have been In the habit Of asking fayors in the way
Of credit Of our local dealers In Independence,
with those same dealers. Now, Mr.. Editor, l
want to ask those farmers through your paper II
they think this IL Justice to themselves, to the To-
claims for one Of its fundamental principles jus.
tice and equality without re gard to occupation
class. Now, brother farmers, want you to take
into consideration whether you are Wiling ING or can
try, and let our fourishing towns, whose pros
perity reacts upon the farmer, dwindle and Ian
gusb. II 1t is policy for Que farmer. to send
away for all he gets, It IL policy for all; and
would like to have the farmers contemplate the
results that would follow all follow this course,
and ask himself II he is willing to risk them for
Of sugar, or 80 cents on bag of coffee. As for
myself, say emphatically, let us encourage home
trade, and by honest competition our dealers will
be pretty sure to give us fair rates; indeed they
are doing SO at the present time,
There ID another vampire who has been on the
warp .th through this neighborhood this week
one Of the noted English cloth men, and al
though the papers have often warned the public
against the arts OF these fellows, they still find In
nooents enough to prey upon to make their call
ing pay. The most OF the farmers not "to0 poor"
to take the papers are fully pursuaded that these
cloth men are o snare and dclueiOn; the other
class who don't read the papers will not see this
article, and SO 1t will do no good to caution
them, have only written to relieve my feelings.
and as the boys are waiting for me to help In
planting corn, must come to an abrupt concu-
