We farmers of the Reservation would like to
ask Mr.. d. w. NJ. of the last issue, what refuse
there is left after the sugar is extracted from the
cane, as we understand it the cane is to be hauled
as cut, leaving both seed and blades on it, when
at the factory the seed is thrashed and sacked
seed, the leaves are compressed into bales like
hay) for feed, and the pomace is manufactured
into paper Now each one of the above mention
ed would bring far more than the trifle paid for
the cane. Now we don't say sugar factory
would be a detriment here if il were to come by
its own free will, but asking the people to vote
bonds which will always keep them in debt is
surely wrong. If Dodge is Il suitable place for a
manufacture of that kind it will come without the
bonds, like all other intitutions of the kind.
DO away with bond voting for when bonds are
granted only about half is used to build and equip
the arrangement while the other half is thrown in
the Golfers of the proprietors. The farmer cannot
prosper here, nor in any other country if he is
bonded and taxed high, which will be the case.
We will have TO thank reader of the TINES of
last week for helping out, us we were quite
busy, and the same this week The Reservation
embraces small territory of country, butts thick
ly settled with industrious people who are con-
tinually building digging wells and etc We can
not make account of every new improvement on
account of their being SO numerous.
We are sorry to hear that the teacher is not Civ
ing satisfaction 10 all at Mt Pleasant The reader
of last week tells the parents not to take the
chldrens word for it, of course the reader must
speak from experience. if his child or children
which ever it may be, does not speak the truth,
that is no reason that all other children should
not speak the truth. We trust that there are no
other parents, but what can rely on their cldrens
word 1t is the parents place to see tharthe child
does speak the truth. Country Critic.
