to secure time or money in this second
agreement. He has not been gone
long and we have secured a Chinese
teacher to look the paper over. After
reading it carefully, he tells us the
places we are to go to and the journey
as we had talked is complete in ev-
cry way, but aside from the $4,000
cash there is written in that we will
pay 500 cash as Holy Happiness mon
ey, and so cash each day for lodging
of the men. We have made our plans
to go on the morrow and although it
is now growing dark, we feel the mat
ter must be settled tonight. There is
only one way, and that is to go to
headquarters. The boy who brought
the contract offers to take us and we
start out. We have to get an order
from the head policeman to have the
gates of the city opened for us on
our return SO as to get out. For two
miles and more we rush down through
the dimly lighted city to where on a
side street our guide leads us into a
dingy dark room about six by ten
feet. Leaving us in the darkness he
climbs a bamboo ladder to the floor
above and brings down the head man.
We Indignantly refuse to pay the
Holy Happiness money and the price
of lodging for the men. 1t is only when
we pick up our money and start to
walk out that he says, ooh, come on
back, we will let it co." and with a
stroke of the brush pen the two places
are cancelled. Still we are not
through. Nanchang circulates a small
paper money, not good outside the
city, which is worth only IS cash to
the hundred. The cope ris called
full cash" and for the full cash" the
lao-pan commended. The war of words
is over an amount that does not en-
coed fifteen cents, and when finally
we throw down one bill that is the
equivalent of four cents, he says, "All
right, l will eat the rest of the bitter
ness" We pick up the contract, pass
through the city, through the court
esy of the police are let out at the
north gate, and as we go to rest for
the night declare that if you want to
keep even with the Chinaman you
must get up early in the morning
and stay up late at night.

FIRST LAND SALES IN IOWA.
Homeseekers From All Parts of the
Union Were Present.

when the first public land sales
began in this state at Burlington on
Nov. 10, 1888, land-hungry settlers
from nearly every state in the union
We're there. The Massachusetts
Yankee was present to seize any bar
gain; the Kentuckian with his soft
southern accent mingled with his
brethren from South Carolina, Virgin
ia, Maryland and Tennessee; large
numbers were gathered from Illinois,
Ohio and Indiana, and besides there
was present a considerable group Of
settlers who had but lately come from
the District of Columbia.
In the staid records of these land
c., appear descriptions Of the tracts
sold, the prices, the date and the
amount of sale. In the thousands OF
names there recorded one can find
but very few names of men whose con-
stituency OF acquaintance or repUta-
ton was wider than the neighborhOod
or county from whence they mad come.
These were plain, uncelebrated men.
making history that was fundamental
in state building. Though the bidding
in of tract of 100 acres and its later
settlement would seem to be acts Ii
vorced from any glamor and romance
they were of the highest Importance
in the life of the settler. From an
article on History Made by Plain
Men," by DR.. Louis Pilzer in the July
number of "The Iowa Journal Of His
