Gen. johnson and VIM. Lindeke, Of the
Seed Grain Commission, arrived on Tues
day evening and deposited 81 500 for the
purchase OF seed wheat for those rendered
destitute by grasshopper ravages. The
County Committee, consisting Of Messrs
Homer. winsett s Bighsm, will purchase
the wheat from the farmers. who have
Wheat to sell, in the immediate neighbor-
hoods where it is to be distributed. They
have offers Of about all they will need a,
seventy i've cents per bushel, consequent
y. they can purchase 1000 bushels.
The commissioners, in connection with
the Governor, took, rs basis for dividing
the appropriation to the counties, the re-
ports Of the various Military Officers who
made CANVASS a few weeks ago. Tha,
canvass was, doubtless, as impartial as an.
that could lie made. The correctness of i,
depended, largely, on tho business expert.
ence Of the officer making it. Capt. Tis-
dali who was detailed to this County, hal
had business experience that enabled him
to get ut the facts with unusual precision
and We are fully convinced, that his returns
did not contain the name Of one person
except such as were fully entitled to aid
under the provisions Of the act. Cons, =
quently, we are satisfied that no unfair al
lowance has been made to this County,
and there is general satisfaction, too, with
the amount given.
The Commissioners, Gen. Johnson and
Mr.. Lindekc, were DESTROYS that the wheat
should be purchased and distributed in
whatever way would be most convenient
and Of the greatest general benefit, and
they adopted the very best method. Their
management Of the matter in this County
was highly honorable, generous and just.
PROM Gen. johnson We learned that
Brown County had received $500 and
Renville County would receive e3,500
There is probably not All intelligent man
in either County who does not know that
in both cases, and especially in Brown
County, the amount is much above what is
equitable or right. The 'gouge" is one
for which the Commissioners and Cover
nor are not responsible in any way. 1t
is partly owing to the inexperience of the
Officers who made the canvass but chiefly
to the fact that ample facilities were not
afforded them, by the people and officials
Of the Counties, Tor getting at the facts. 1t
is that class Of dealing which has made this
charitable effort to help the needy curse
! to the State,
To LEAD ALL COMPETITORS is the aim OF
the pruprietors OF the Wilson Shuttle Sew
ing Machine. 1t is founded on the very
best principles known to the sewing ma
chine science, and Improvements, in adj
vance Of all other sewing machines, are be-
ing adopted constantly. The Wilson is
rapidly gaining the preference Of all parties
that are acquainted with sewing machines,
and it has already taken the front rank
among the frst-cla>s machines of this
county; and its price, owing to Its beng
manufactured where labor and material is
much cheaper than in eastern cities, is fl
teen dollars less than all other first class
machines.
Machines will be delivered at any
Railroad Station in this county, free o.
transportation charges, if ordered through
the Company's Branch House at 327 and
329 Superior St. Cleveland o.
They send an elegant catalogue and
chrome circular free OIL application.
This Company want few more good
! agents.
