THE LANSING FARME0S' CLUB

VCCASOsWSoVsSV
THE LANSING FARMERs' CLUB
met at the Bero school house, Feb. IS,
1879, president H. Lyons in the chair.
After reading minutes of previous meet
Ing by the secretary, Mrs. H. H. Kent
read an essay. Subject: "IIow far are
We justified In accumulating wealth.. As
she was unanimously requested by vote
of the Club to furnish you with \ copy for
publication, will not attempt to report it.
Mr.. Kent theu read selected article,
giving the experience Of an Iowa farmer
in hiring money anu m"rtgaging his
farm, and urging farmers in Strengthened
circumstances to dispose OF their produce,
rather than to hire money and hold In
hopes Of better marke: in the future.
Also. very sarcastic article on the ex-
travsgance OF our National Legislators.
The author stating that Senator Lamar
contemplates Introducing bill providing
each of our NJ. C.'s with \ private secre.
tary at public expense. The author sug.
gested that they should also be provided
with liveried servants, including boot
blacks, also with carriages, &C., at public
expense. Should not we'll stocked harem
be included among the other named ne.
cess,ties for properly provided for N. c.?
Can't our State lawmakers, who are
furn ishing an unusual and apparently
unnecessary number Of extra clerks
and secretaries for committees, also at.
tendants On committee rooms, g:ean a
hint from Mr.. Lamar worthy Of their dis
hrgutshed consideration.
After refreshments, the subject Of root.
growing, or the kinds and quantities ad.
visable for US to raise, was discussed In
prolonged if not very satisfactory manner.
It was apparent that "root hog or die"
was the variety each was best posted on,
and on all others there existed wide
difference in opinion, not only ss to their
value, but the expense Of quantity that
can BE- grown on given area Of land.
For illustration, calling tho common
potato a root, the estimated expense of
raising it varied all the way from 20 cts.
to so cts. per bushel, and the average
yield that Can safely be counted upon at
from so to 200 bushels per acre. The
subject was closed with q recommenda-
tion that each member experiment this
coming season by raising different kinds
of roots on a known quantity Of ground
and report success in quantity and prob.
able cost per acre of raising.
On motion 1t was voted to ask the scc-
retary to obtain such inform alton as Is
available for the use of the Club in refer
ence to the expense Of apparatus for
manufacturing sugar and syrup from cane,
also the expense and chance for getting
the pure early amber seed.
Exercises for next week at Ramsey
school house, by Mrs. Wells, on "Our
Girls, their Education, &C."
Mrs. Mcbride also an essay.

some selected article of interest to farmers
to read at next meeting.
Mrs. Chaplin appointed on executive
committee.
Mrs. H. Lyons chosen president next
meeting.
Mrs. E. II. Wells chosen vice president

Word fur yeh. Chi.aman.

A well-posted californian writes to the
New York World, earnestly protesting
against the anti Chinrse bill ~ one OF
great wrong. aud abh0rrent TO thousands
of fCalifornia's best citixens. He asserts
NAT California has been grossly inisrep'
gesepted on this subject, a. being sub
stantially unanimous In favor of perpe-
trating a base and cowardly wrong upon
an unoffending people. and this because
OF their notable virtues-industry
economy and1ff ugality. As to the Consti.
tutionai Convention, this correspondent
AYERS that 1t was elected on An anu-Chin'
csc platform, so thatit represents only o
majority in the State, but nothing more
He says Chinese assimilation with
Americans would be impossible, as they
have for years been Isolated by asystem
Of brutal violence and monstrous oppr.s-
sion. Human ingenuity has been ex-
hausted IN making class laws to evaue
the fundamental requirefnents OF the
National Constitution. The labor of Cali
fornia is essentially Chinese. There are
over 100000 Of them there, land the birers
Of this host Of men stand by them, but
they themselves assert that they cannot
make money. But the fact cannot be
denied that. taken all In all. they are sli-
perior workers, and are now merely
used by damagogues to bull the labor
market. California, this gentleman as
serts, is beset with men who insist on
rates that no man can pay, and because
a remedy is found In the frugal China
man, Congress must needs go out of Its
way to bolster up a corner in the labor
market, and give National sanction tn a
fragrant breach OF faith with great power
In order to uphold what is nothing less
than an enormous strike on the part VI
white workmen.

ARE our State Judges exempt from ar
rest by U. 5. Courts ? Judges are being
arrested all through Virginia, and they
are only out of prison through the lenien-
cy Of the L. S. Marshals. What Is this
thing done at this late day for, if not to
provoke collision 1t is a tyranny that
shows to what length Congressional ep-
actments have gone. The United States
statutes are now great mass of enact
ments containing God only knows whar,
for they have revealed things already
that Congressman ailege were never put
their by Congress, but were added by the
compiler and collator, and the mass OF
thousands Of sections were adoL ed by
both Houses without one-thir1 of the
members knowing what they did or did
not contain. The book is q great budget
which may prove Pandora's box to the
people at any day, and the sooner it is
examined and all such dangerous laws
CIT out Of it the better.

IHE PATENT SHOE SEwER,-Tbe
rapldity with which shoes are now MANN
factured by machinery is something Won
derful. The patent of the greatest of all
these shoe machines has expired in
France and in England, and will expire
here next year, and there has been a preat
combination Of shoe dealers formed Ia
brlbe Congress into extending the patent.
This should not be done, because, like
the Howe and Singer sewing machines.
1t Will be only taxing the people to max,
millionaires of men, who, like How,
and Singer, may be injured instead oi
benefited.
The Mckay sewing machine, as al
present built, is six feet high and weigh
over four hundred pounds. The inven
tions Of Mathies were an automatic sticl
and "revolving horn," upon which the
shoe is held while being sewed, the sew
ing being simply that of attacking th
soles to the uppers of the shoe. At frs
the shoe was sewed from the heel to th,
toe taken from the horn, turned and sewe,
on the other side in the same way. Blu

MARCH 1870.

COURT HOUSE 'REMovAL.-We pub
lish elsewhere an address to the men,
bers of the Legislature prepared by q
committee of the bar headed, we believe
by the Oldest member Of the Bar Asso-
citation, and signed by some of our
heaviest Taxpayers and most influential
citizens. II puts the question of the re-
moval Of the seat Of justice to Whining
ton in so strong light that there is
scarcely any room left for argument.
The Courthouse must be built here if
built at all. In justice to all the people
Of the county, as a matter OF economy,
1t should have been here long years ago.
Its removal is only matter Of time any
how, and now the sooner the question is
settled the better it will be for all par
ties.

at the heel, sewed to the toe, held the
shoe steady, turned the horn and sewed
back again to the heel. From that mo-
ment the Mathies machine became in
valuable. G kN
Prior to that, the sveraee taek Of these
machines was forty pairs day. Soon
one hundred pairs became the average.
Now, six hundred is moderate task, and
one man has been known to sew nine
hundred pairs of shoes in ten hours. In
Philadelphia there is shoe ma0ufactory
which every day throws upon the market
three thousand pairs of women's and
misses shoes, or nine hundred thousand
pairs year.
A company has been formed to mon
opolize these machines and deprive the
people of the right they are entitled to
for securing the company the exclusive
use OF it for the past period in which. by
this protection, he has been enabled to
amass a large fortune. The Record says: !:
Under present arrangements the company
keeps the machine in order through its
agents, but, If any part breaks, the owner
must pay for the duplicate Of such part.
The owner also pays = royalty Of one
cent per pair for children's shoes sewed
by the machine two cents for boys and
misses and women's, and four cents for
mems shoes. The manufacturers say
this gives millions of money annually TO
the company. Beside this, the price of
a machine is about four hundred dollars
while the cost of making it is only 500.
Notwithstanding this most OF the shoe
men-perhaps ninety-five per cent-have
signed the petition for its continuance,
"becAuse," explains manufacturer, 1--WE
have been made directly interested in the
affair"
The Mckay Company has recently
argued this case before the Board OF
Trade Of Boston, in asking that body to
approve their petition for a renewal.
Argument was also submitted against
them. The shoe manufacturers are very
careful in speaking about the company,
as there is . penalty inflicted upon them
If they speak 10 any other way than in
praise. This penalty would amount TO
the withdrawal of the machine from the
firm discovered speaking against the Nc
Kay Company. This, the manufacturers |
say, is in the contract of purchase.

and for these many years they have been

The GREED OF PACIFIC SENATOR.
The Philadelphia Press says: 1t is said
that Senator Sharon Of Nevada drew
from tie Secretary Of the Senate, recent
ly, compensation amounting to $4,000,
being for the whole of the last Congress,
with mileage added for sessions which lie
did not attend. Somebody is greatly in
fault, if this be true. Sections 40 and Al
OF the Revised Statutes interpose bar to
such payment. Section 40 requits the
discussing officers Vi the two Houses 10
deduct from the monthly payments OF
for each day that he has b en absent, un
less such member assigns as the redsor
for such absence the sickness Of himseL
or some member Cf his family. II Sena
tor Sharon assigned such reason for hi
prolonged absence, he was entitled to pay
for that time otherwise, he was not ell
titled. This law is not forgotten, bu
under recent custom is almost uniyer
sally evaded. A member of the House
| desiring to be absrnt for business ol
pleasure, and not from sickness, gets
through the Speaker, leave of absence
for the time desired. This leave |. held
by the memter, TO excuse him from com.
| plying with the law and from returning
the number of days OF absence for deduc-
ton. 1t is hardly necessary to say that
the consent ofe,ther House to All absence
does not work repeal of a statute ant
that this practice is an abuse. lftbe Law
be wrong, it should be repealed; other.
wise, it should be enforced. The practice
referred to is comparatively new, and die
not exist until within few years.

CONGRESS MEETS IO-M0RROw.-The
GAZETTE has been an advocate for an
extra session on both political and eco
nomical grounds, and we hope to witne.s
good results from IL. The committees
will all be appointed and they will have
all summer and fail to book themselves
up in their special duties, instead of being
hurriedly assigned to their duties when
the regular session meets in December.
This We think of sufficient Importance
itself to warrant q called session. But
in addition, the Senate and Executive
Departments have uniform y opposed any
and every economical proposition the
Democratic House has made. 1t is,
therefore, necessary on behalf of the
people to break down this opposition if
We Are 70 have an end Of extravagance
and introduce economy instead. 1t S
barely possible that Mr.. Hayes may op-
pose bo;n Houses Of Congress but We
are permitted to hope that he will not.
