Elijah Johnson, Esq,
Agency, Iowa,
my dear Sir:
Il beg to acknowledge receipt OF
yours of the 18th inst. advising me OF
the date of the old settlers meeting
and that my name was on the program
for a short address.
81 regret exceedingly that it will not
be possible for me to be with you on
the occasion, as nothing could afford
me more pleasure than to meet with
the few remaining pioneers of Wapel-
10 county and grasp them by the hand
and look into their faces as they re-
late their experiences of long ago.
Owe Much to the Pioneers.
II have a respect for the pioneers
in that part of Iowa that borders
close to reverence. My childhood,
school and early manhood days were
spent among them, and whatever sue
cess / have made in life is to be at
tributed to the lessons learned from
the early settlers in the southeastern
portion of Wapello county. And al
though they have nearly all Joined the
silent majority and are reaping their
reward, in memory they still live and
their works and traits of character
have left such an imprint on the pres
ent and will in turn upon future gen
erations, that while time lasts their in
fiuence will continue to be felt.

parents fifty years ago. when there

The turf where once they bled.'

In beds of sparkling sand.

Rooms Is and 10, Leighton Building.
Chicago, Sept. 21.-Fine weather. large
Russian and Danubian shipments and low.
er cables contributed to Il weak opening in
wheat and the market has ruled throughout
the day, closing tx cents lower than Sat
urday. Important long lines were sold out
and the demand was principally from shorts
who were disposed on account of the big
break to take profits. Northwestern mar
kets were again weak influenced by the
prospect of n strike in the mills up there
Towards the close good export purchases
were reported. hut these had more than a
temporary influence. There was fairly
good buying by Bartlett-Frazier and by
Clifford. The northwest We're heavy sell
lers. Local receipts 105 cars with 100 esti-
mated for tomorrow. Clearances 609O0;
Northwest cars $50 against 1,O24 last year
Primary receipts 1,31s,600, against 1,665,-
700 last year; shipments 375,6OO against
491 400 last year.
Corn opened heavy and lower and dis
played a heavy temper during the day
The shorts We're about the best buyers
The heavy tone of the cables and improved
weather conditions were the chief bear
factors. Cash demand here was poor, The
market finally closed heavy at the decline.
Local receipts, $40 cars with $50 estimated
for tomorrow; clearances, 1000: primary
receipts today 100000, against 94s,9O0 last
year.
Oats market fractionally lower. The
weakness seemed mainly in sympathy with
the break in corn and wheat. As. compared
with those markets, oats was fairly steady.

holdings are sufficiently great to be fac

Indications vet of liquidation by him. Re-
ceipts continue moderate. Eastern demand
is said to be rather slack for the reason
that the country to the east of us Is under
selling us. On the whole, however, cash
prices are fairly maintained. Local re-
ceipts 100 with 150Ecars estimated for to-
| morrow.

lower. The large packing interests are
