Our Produce Market.

We are not quite as ferocious as was
the good old lady who was in the
habit of excIaining, II told you so"
but We might assume that position
with perfect propriety in one or two
casesif no more. We have hereto
fore spoken Of the propriety of having
a commission house or something of
like nature established here, for the
purpose Of finding respectable mar
ket for such things as oats and pota-
toes, that farmers bringing them in
might be allie to realize little cash
for them. It being as much one mans
duty as another to look after matters
of this kind, the consequence is it has
been wholly neglected by all, and
now farmers are bringing in this pro-
duce, only to learn that there is nc
cash market for it, paying the expense
and trouble of raising and hauling to
town. Farmers may put up with
this back handed cuff for time, but
other places treating them more re-
spectful in this, may hereafter gel
their trade

L Board Of Trade Duties.

Our Board of Trade met last Mon
day evening, at which there was a
large attendance, and considered the
wheat question, and it was reported
to the meeting in session that the
round elevator here had been sold to
parties present who would immediate
ly commence its operation when all
the business WAS supposed 10 have
been finished, and all therefore took
hasty departure. We are of the
opinion that the Board made a mis-
take in breaking OF so abruptly and
neglecting the consideration OF other
matters which were of rs much impor-
lance to the town as the wheat ques-
ton as no curing Of that can quiet the
general cause Of complaint. It is we'll
known TO all our citizens and more es-
pecially to our merchants, that trade
here is not what it should be, and mot
what they expected it would be, and
that there has been graded falling
of the business here for the last year
taken some action in relation to it.
Delays hoping for the better, and
return Of the former business has al
ready continued too long, and the
time for more aggressive action is now
steadily staring us in the face. It's
now or never, now or lose what we
have remaining. If business is to be
concentrated something must be done
to get it at a particular point where it
is wanted and if several different
points of the compass are pulling for
it at the same time, the one to be sue
cessful should pull more effectually
than the others. What is there with
in reach to be had, which is not had,
to assist in drawing business of any
kind to this centre If anything is
visible, or by eXertion might become
so, what are the necessary steps to be
taken TO secure it ? What can be
done for the general and special well
fare of the farmers outside of the
wheat question, to induce them to
come here to trade, in preference to
going elsewhere ? Those propositions
and those of like nature, should
have the assembled wisdom of a Board
ofTrade, assisted with all the outside
suggestions and help there is in given
community. This is the theory upon
which active villages have been built
up in the past, and is the only sure
method of making them in the present
and future.

Hon. Mark D. Flower, Secretary of
State Republican Central Committee
Dear Sir Your communication of
the Sd inst, inviting me on behalf of
the Republican State Central COM
mittee, to make some campaign
speeches in behalf of the Republican
party and our state ticket, at such
points as may designate, has been
received. Having been member of
the Republican party ever since be-
came voter, and the party having so
recently honored me by comforting
upon me high Office, and believing
now, as I have heretofore believed,
that the government of our state and
country is safest in the hands of that
great party which gave freedom to
four millions of slaves, subdued a
great rebellion and prevented dismem-
berment of this Union, gave us safe
and sound currency, and has
thrown the public domain open to
settlement on such terms that the
poorest and humblest can secure
homes and BELIEVING that there is no
valid reason why republican who is
such from principle should now, more
than at any other time, desert his
party or any of its candidates, I feel
that I cannot decline this invi-
tation, and will address the people
at the lines and places indicated on
the inclosed slip. Respectfully, your
obedient servant,

SCANDINAVIAN AMERICA.

The Distribution OF Immigrants from the
Northern Countries and Their Descend
ants in the United States.
Translated from the Fadrelandet og Emf
g~ranten: The census of 1880 shows that there
wore then in the United States of America
44O,262 persons born in the Scandinavian
countries, of which ISL ,729 were born in
Norway, 191, 337in Sweden, aud 81, 1876 were
born in Denmark. As the immigration from
tho Scandinavian countries has been very
great i'll 1881 and 1882, it is fair estimate
that there are now in this country over 5OO.-
O persons born in the Scandinavian COUP
tries. By different counts it has been proven
that children born in this country of Scan
dinavian parents number at least as many as
their parents and others born in the Scaidi-
navian countries and now living here, 80 it is
not 100 much to say that the Scandinavian pop
ntntion in the United States now, at least,
amounts to i ZOO, 0O0, or that every fiftleth
person in the United States is either born in
the Scandinavian countries or is born i'll this
country Of Scandinavia parents, and, further,
that every hundredth person in this country is
born in the Scandinavian countries. Those
born in the Scandinavian counties are divided
among the States and Territories as follows:

The Northwestern Iowa Shooting
ARRAY.
The information received at Sioux
City, Iowa, regarding the shoot
ing affair at Correctionville last
Saturday night was as to the
name ofthe shooter, it being Dwight L.
Edmunds. The particulars of the affair
were that Edmunds' wife and Andy
Hose. the man shot, We're sitting up with
the sick mother of the former in the
house Of George Edmunds. whose wife
is a sister of Mrs, Dwight Edmunds.
Dwight watched outside from the fence
and the veranda for an hour. He saw
improprieties which caused him to fire
through the window, and then he leaped
inside the room. When the first shot
was fired Hose and Mrs. EdmunGs ran in
to an adjoining room, Eamunds follow
ing. At the door he met Hose and shot
the latter in the face, the ball lodging in
the vertebrp of the neck. AS Hose fell
he was again shot in the thigh. Ed
munds gave himself in charge of Il de-
putty sheriff, and is in Sioux City await
ing examination. 1t is the opinion of
surgeons that Hose will die. He has
survived three shooting affairs before
this, and has eight bullets in his body.
The officer brought Edmunds here as
he feared lynching or shooting by the
brothers and friends of the wounded
man. He also suspected that business
difficulties led to the affair somewhat.
1t is alleged that Edmunds turned over
a stock of goods to Goss q Hose for the
purpose of lodging creditors, and that
the latter firmly refused to release the
goods afterward.

His Encounter in the Senate With
F'OOte.

Ben Perley Poore, in the April Century.
Inferior in intellectual ability to Web
ster, Clay or Calhoun, Thomas
Hart Benton had no SUI
perior as a man of iron will
and naughty disposition, during the
t%wenty-nine years and seven months
that he served continuously in the
United States Senate. Aggressive, bold
and defiant, he would occasionally
strike out recklessly at everything and
everybody about him, like the huge
wild buflaloes of the Missouri prairies,
treading his opponents beneath his feet
in his angry rush. His greatest display
of ungovernable rage in the senate cham
Der was when, in an angry debate, he
advanced with threatening ges-
lures toward Senator Foote,
of Mississippi, who, fearing
that he was to be attacked, drew a small
pocket.pistol. The sight of this weapon
made Benton uncontrollabie; and, en-
deavoring to shake of the grasp o. friends
who seized him, he shouted: "The cow
,ardly assassin, let him shoot me if he
dares. never carry arms, and he knows
it. Let the assassin fire." After quiet
was somewhat restored, Clay suggested
that both senators enter into bonds to
keep the peace. Upon that Benton
arose and exclaimed; ~ will rot in Jail,
sir, before l will do it: No. Sir! ! willrot
in Jail first!' and he proceeded to pour
forth a torrent of bitter invective on
Foote before he could be Quoted. Even
when he was defeated in seeking a re-
election for the sixth time in the Senate,
and was forced to accept a seat in the
House Of Representatives, Benton failed
to display chastened ambition or a
softened heart.
