Statistics for Farmers.

The following is an extract from
the speech Of Hon. L. L. Polk, presi-
dent of the F. A. & l. u, at Creston,
recently, upon the occasion of the
organization of an Iowa branch. We
copy from the Independent American.
In 1850 the farmers of the United
States owned 70 per cent of the en-
tire wealth Of the country and paid
81 per cent of the taxes.
In 1860 they owned a per cent Of
the wealth and paid 81 per cent Of
the taxes,
In 1870 they owned SO per cent of
the wealth and paid so per cent Of
the taxes.
In 1890 they owned % per cent Of
the wealth and pay so per cent of the
taxes.
Out Of every dollar Of taxes paid
directly to support our country, state
and national government, the farm
er pays 10 per cents.
In 1880 the total value of all proper
ty in the country was $44, 500, OOO, 900
and Of it $26, SOC, 0OO, 900 is not entered

from 1870 to 1890 only . per cent. Yet
the aggregate wealth OF the country

Fine Monument Work,

The most beautiful designs in lnonu.
ment work to be teen in the West, in
fact as well executed as is produced
anywhere, may be seen at the Mar.
BILE Shop of NJ. A. Kline & Co., in
Cresco. There may now be seen halt
q dozen completed monuments at
their shop, which are models in beau
tiful designs and excellent finish, to
which we take pardonable pride in
asking the people of Cresco to look
at and admire. At this shop every
kind of monumen and cemetery
work is executed in the best style and
at reasonable prices. It is altogether
unnecessary for any person in this
part Of Iowa, sending away for work
in their line, OH account Of quality
OF work, material or price. Indeed
there is probably no city in the State
that has better marble cutter than
NJ. A. Kline, and the people Of Cries.
co should take pleasure in giving MIN
all possible encouragement.
Among the work now nearly ready
for delivery, may be seen beautiful
monuments to Mrs. Woellstein,

placed in the Catholic Cemetery,

OUR NEW DEPOT.

~SAs ASA " A~A~As
The destruction by fire OF the depot
at this place makes it incumbent up
on the company to rebuild, probably,
az soon as the season will permit. In
doing SO the company ought to take
into consideration the fact that Cres-
co is one Of the important business
points on its line of road, west of the
river, on the l. g. M. division, and
with prospect Of continued pros
porous growth and business. The
building done in Cresco last year
amounted to over $4,000, and a
large amount more will be done the
present season and continue from
year to year, the continued growth
of the county contiguous clearly de-
manding it for residences and bust
ness. The people of Cresco have a
pardonable pride in contemplating
this future picture Of their town, and
believe the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul road is not Indifferent to these
facts, or its own Importance in stimu-
lating and helping the continued
prosperity of Cresco. 1t seems to our
people that it would be best for the
company as well as the town to have
the freight and passenger depart
ments in separate buildings. The
freight and passenger trains are ar
irving SO near together it is not pos
sihle to clear the platform SO "a to be
convenient to tho travelling public,
this condition necessarily continuing
at times for two or three hours. BY
putting the passenger depot directly
in front Of the Strother House, and
the freight building near the next
street, east, this inconvenience might
be entirely obviated. The passenger
depot should be tasty brick build
Ing, containing the Offices of the
company with suitable waiting
rooms for the use and convenience
Of the travelling public.

into unitarianism. Its spirit is catholic
and broad. 1t is against all smallness.
all mere provincial things which mis-
take themselves for the universal truth.
Unitarians are, by nature and drift of
education, reformers, because thev con-
Germ themselves more with the prob
lens of right living in this world, and
the building of true and sterling char
actef than with schemes of salvation for
the saving of souls, believing and hav-
ing full confidence that if good and true
character can be builded up here, that
God in his omnipotent power
will take care of the soul hereafter.
The problems of reform present many
and complex questions as to methods,
and it is unwise for any organization to
hastily commit itself to any one of the
various methods usually suggested. The
habit of right thinking and right action,
the development of self, the ego, will
lead one to the best performance OF his
altruistic duties.
Mr.. Thompson closed the conference
with hearty thanks for the warm well
come and kind hospitality of the people
of the Unitarian church, stating that
some of the delegates had been so
charmed with the city of Los Angeles
that they proposed to prolong their stay.
