Since public attention was called to the

one to five men. Several of the writers
declare that they have been compelled
to reduce the size of their crops ma

them; others state that they planted large
crops, great portions of which Went TO
waste from lack of attention or ability
to gather and market the yields. The
effect of this condition upon the CONNER

that he has to feed his own stock and

Need Laborers Badly.

The farmers of Virginia, said Mr.
IIoiner yesterday. needed laborers more
than they need money. Twenty thousand
farm laborers could find employment IN
Virginia counties to-day.
The scarcity of farm hands is caused
by the exodus of negroes to the North.
Thoroughgoing plans are now being made
to meet the conditions. and steps VIII
be taken in this present Legislature to
provide funds for aIl extensive immigra-
ton movement. MIR. Koiner and Mr..
Beverley, of ESSEX, d member of the
board, are now arranging TO have a
bill drawn up for presentation III the
General Assembly. The draft of this
bill will he submitted to the State Board
of Agriculture, for it's approval at a
meeting to be held in this city next
Tuesday.
It is the purpose of the board to ask
an annual appropriation of $1,000 the
fund TO be used in advertising the advan-
tages of the State to home-seekers and
laborers in the west of America and for
the establishment of AN agency system
in Europe Agents will he sent TO Eng
land and Scotland and several continent
tai countries, and these agents VIII turn
the tide of immigration to Virginia, max
ing careful selection OF the families or
individuals sent here The scheme is vast
ana NitdIly liilpoltttilt- ~ nos NY 49,
been made public In all It's details.
Some concern has been manifested BY
certain newspapers and individuals, who
appear alarmed, lest the State be flooded
with the rlff-raff of Europe. This is a
bugbear coniured up by insufficient
knowledge of the conditions. There is no
lack of the undesirable immigrants. They
are always ready to come, and the United
States government maintains system
to keep them out. No agency would be
necessary to bring this class of people
here. The only possible service the agents
can perform is to select wisely who shall
be assisted in coming, and 1t is scarcely
reasonable to suppose that they Will
choose the "riff-raff" purposely.
Want to Be Agent.
A letter was received yesterday from a
man in Florida, who wants to be an
agent There have been several appl-
cations of this sort and, of course, no
attention can be given to them at this
time. Letters approving the movement
are also coming to Mr.. Koiner from every
section of the State. While this is very
gratifying TO the Commissioners, these let
tiers would serve a better purpose If di-
rected to the legislators, whose consent
to the appropriation will be needed later

directly due to the weakening

Another Ordnance Needed.

While no serious injuries are re-
ported from the indiscriminate use
of cannon fire-crackers in this city
on the Fourth, the escape of a
number of citizens was the result
of luck rather than prudence on
the part Of those handling the
|n1issilea. One instance where in.
Jury trS g1it have resulted was just
following the close of the ball
game, when some miscrant threw a
cracker into the crowd, exploding
as it landed on the head of visitor
to the city and putting a new hat
out of commission, burning his
neck and collar in addition.
The use of these missiles is pro-
hibited in almost every city in the
country, and prior to another cele-
bration in this city an ordinance
regulating or prohibiting their
sale aud use should be passed in

FINDS IN FAVOR OF DEFENDANT.
Eveleth Jury Returns Verdict in Favor
off. Enqel in Civil Suit.

+ After two jury disagreements in
municipal court in this city, the
civil case of Henry Hughes & Co.,
Virginia, against Frederick Engel
for 1857 was decided after 10 min
antes deliberation by a jury in mu-
.nicipal court at Eveleth on Tuesday.
The verdict was for the defendant.
The case was brought before Judge
Prince on change of venue.
|: The plaintiff alleged that Engel
was a partner of Charles Pankonen
and William Curtiss, who conduct
ed logging camp and to whom
Hughes & Co. sold goods. The
basis of this allegation was that
Engel furnished money with which
the other two were to operate and
was to receive one-third the profits
of the logging venture. The jury
considered this insufficient to prove
partnership and therefore found for
the defendant, who is reimbursed
for the cost of the three trials.

Early Iuesday Mornina. =. =


Fire of unknown origin destroyed
three dwellings, on east Oak street
at about l o'clock Tuesday morn

would doubtless have taken many
more buildings in the threatened
section.
The buildings were owned by
Marcus Arola, f. Mehtonen and
Oscar Larson, the combined loss
being estimated at 5000, with but
slight insurance.
The large warehouse of the
Standard Oil Co., into which had
been put large consignment of
oils the previous day, was across a
narrow alley from the most easterly
buildings, and altho the fire depa IT.
