AN UNREASONABLE IOWA FARMER WHO WANTS TO PAY HI8 DEBTS 'cORf DIN' TO 'GREEMENT." [New York Graphic
Mr. Samuel Kiumby, of Iowa, is in a peck of trouble. The complicated cases of Myra Clark Gaines and the Jumel estate are nothing to it.
Twenty years ago he was very prosperous. Naturalized when he was young, he had settled on the rich loam of the luxuriant west, and around him had grown a large family, who from him seemed likely to inherit thousands of fertile acres, as they had inherited his industry and enterprise.
But th grasshoppers came and settled down on the Kiumby farm, 'Uncle Sam,'as he was affectionately called by all who knew him, fought them desparately, but his succulent crops were so attractive that the ravenous insects filled the air for miles, apd devoured every green thing.
When he killed a thousand a million came. His &ons and he were constantly in the field, but the enemy was so terrible that their whole proptrty seemed likely to be destroyed.
In this strait old Mr. Kiumby went to his neighbors and said: 'I must hire men to heip me fight the hoppers. Lend me 10,000 bushels of oats, and I will pay you six per cent, interest on them, and will in twenty years wipe out the debt by giving you

bushels of corn or oats
at my option. In this way I can sell the oats and hire men to kill the hoppers.' They reaJily agreed to the profitable bargain, for they knew that uncle Sam's fine estate was worth ten times the debt. They delivered to him
10,000
.bushels of
oats, and took his secured twenty year notes, in which he bound himself to pay the interest regularly, and to give them two bushels for one at maturity 'in corn or oats.'
Uncle Sam sold the oats, hirtd a hundred men and killed and drove off all the hoppers. For twenty years he has paid the interest every fall.
When the loan was first made, corn was worth much more than oat*, and the holders of Kiumby notes hoped he would redeem them, when the time came, in corn but, in a few yeare, the relative prices changed—corn fell and oats rose.
Then the holders ot the notes went to the Iowa legislature and hired the members to pabS an act on the last night of the session, when nobodv was noticing what was going on, saying thai it should hereafter take
40
quarts of corn to make
a bushel. It was put through in the dark, under the title of */.n act to change the name of Ann Ejit to Seraphina Seroilia Scram, and for other purposes.'
The passage of this swindling law made a great excitement in Iowa and taking advantage of the great indignation Samuel Kiumby and others succeeded in electing a legislature last fall favorable to changing the corn bushel back to
32
quarts, and enabling Uncle Sam to pay his debt in corn if he wishes to do so, according to contract.
At this the absurd cry of 'Fraud!' 'Repudiation!' etc., his been raised. Some of the Kiumby notes have been bought by the New York brokers, who own most of the New York newspapers, and they echo the cry of 'Fraud!' The following letters are' exhibited in Iowa by tho9e who are determined to make old Kiumby pay more than he agreed to:
B. FRANKLIN SHYLOCK, Esq,—Dear Sir: The proposition to restore the corn bushel to its natural size fills the whole civilized world with astonishment and alarm. It is Repudiation with a big R. It will dishonor your beautiful state if Uncle Sam is permitted to pay his debt in corn or oats according to 'contract. Ever of thou,
JAY GOULD.
B. F. SHYLOCK, Esq.—Me, too, W. REID.
B. F. SHYLOCK, Esq,—It can not be possible that Iowa will authorize such an infamous measure as the corn-rebushel-ization bill. The holders of ihe notes of old Kiumby have supposed ot course that thev would be paid in the more valuable cereal, which is at present oats, and to disappoint this expectation merely because the contractor ads 'grain—corn or oats,' would be to convulse the produce markets of the world.
Yours, cordially and all thatially, GEORGE JONES. (N. Y. Times.)
B. F\ SHYLOCK, Esq,—The whole circumcized world stands aghast at the attempts to swindle the penniless bondholders out ot their oats. If Uncle Sam is permitted to pay his debts according to contract, I can not be responsible for the result. Such a bare-faced fraud was never before attempted. Yours, meekly, ...
BELMONT.
B.F. SHYLOCK, ESO.—I an affected somewhat similarly. I've been took the same way.
EDITOR OF THE 'WORLD.'
B. F. SHYLOCK, Esq.—Make the old fellow pay in the dearer metal—which is oats. Our poor hardworking bondholders must get all they can out of the bloated agriculturists. The 'contract' has nothing to do with it. It is ridiculous and blasphemous to quote it Sock it to old Klum.
C. A. DANA.
B. F. SHYLOCK, Esq.—Teddy O'Ratferty has just arrived from Kilkenny, and reports that foreign bondholders expect the old man to shell out the oats, and if he tries to pay in corn according to contract, he is a blasted repudiationi6t, pickpocket and bounty jumper.

Whenever a misfortune or accident of any kind happens to a Maori, his relatives, neighbors, friends and remote acquaintances assemble and punish hin as if the ill luck was caused by his own imprudence. They pillage his house, devour his stores of food, and beat him almost into insensibility.

THE REPORTER'S PASSION. The following, written for the occasion, was read at the annual dinner of the Boston Press Club:
Upon his dying bed of pain the old re porter lay he knew that ere the sun should rise his sou\ must pass away. And as he felt life's current ebb, he called a comrade tried, 'friend, in the hour of mortal pain I'd have thee by my side. Now swear to me by all that's good, by all thy faith holds dear thou wilt perform a last request, a parting charge revere.' He bared his brow, he raised his hand 'it shall be done, I vow.' The old reporter smiled, and said, 'I can die easier now. When trom this worn, enfeebled frame departs my latest breath, bear thou with speed to the Daily News the notice of my death. But mark me! guard the tidings well frem Democrat and Mail.' His eye resumed its wonted fire, his cheek became less pale. 'We beat 'em on the college race, we beat 'em on the fire we got ahead on the bank smash up—fulfill my last desire. We beat 'em first —we beat 'em last!' His eager spirit fled and with a smile upon his face the journalist lay dead!

'Brest, Brest,'said H. R. H., the late Duke of Gloucester, 'where's Brest?' 'In France, sir.' 'That's odd—very odd. that they have sent hin*. there.' said H. R.

'Quite proper, I think, sir, with all submission. Nothing can be more natural than to send an infant to Bre(a)st.' 'Very true,' rejoined the Duke seriously 'I did not think of that before.' This was the Duke who complained that the flies would get into bis mouth. 'Perhaps if your Royal Highness were to shut it.' 'Ah, I did not think ot that.'
