435 | A five acre farm that markers $650 worth of produce, 1896 The following excerpts an article first published in the Seattle Times. I cannot find a copy of that article, but what appears to be a complete version can be found in the 6 Feb 1896 edition of The Aberdeen Herald. "R. M. Hoskinson writes to the Seattle Times that it has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt that any man with sufficient pluck and energy to tackle the logs and brush of these uplands can make a good living on five, or at most, ten acres. Sufficient capital is necessary to live on the frst year. From thence, each succeeding year becomes easier, and more remunerative. Mr. Hoskinson himself cultivates some five acres, and sells therefrom each year some $650 worth of varlous products, much as frult, vegetables, chickens, eggs, butter, etc. And what one man has And done another can do, with like brains and perseverance." |

437 | A gloomy picture of California 1877 In this third letter from California to the editor to in The Osage County Chronicle, Riley laments moving to California: "I have been repeatedly asked "How do poor men make a living in California?"- Answer: "They don't live at all--they just breathe a little. Boarding costs $5 per week, a good pair of boots $16, womens' fine shoes $12 per pair, at the shoe shops. Most all labor on the roads, in the woods, in the fields, in the hotels, wash-houses, cooks and servants of all kinds, is performed by Chinese and Digger Indians, as these can be hired at about half the wages necessary to keep a white man or woman alive. The Chinese pervade all parts of the coast, and they virtually constitute a system of slavery about equal to that in the Southern States. I am now fully prepared to say to every well-to-do man or woman in Kansas, stay where you are, unless you want a whistle; if you do, it's here for you, and a very dear one at that. ....Thousands of the citizens of California would gladly return east if they could get the means to do so Men are dally passing through Cloverdale begging for work and food, having been brought here by false friends and lying periodicals." One can argue that Riley's initial glowing letters from California to his friends in Kansas are "lying periodicals." Riley and Martha left California for the Washington Territory roughly a months after this letter was written. |

440 | A trip through Southwest Knox Co., MO 1880 "From Novelty we went to Locust Hill, stopping for supper at Uncle Rufus Botts', is clever an old gentleman as there is in Salt River Township. There we listened to as fine a Greenback lecture as we ever heard, given by Prof. E. C. Kimman. A good audience was in attendance. and the strictest attention was given to the speaker." Greenback lecture refers to the Greenback Party that fielded presidential candidates in the 1876, 1880 and 1884 US presidential elections. The Greenback Party (known successively as the Independent Party, the National Independent Party and the Greenback Labor Party) grew from the organization and policies of the National Grange of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry, a social and political organization that encouraged farm families to band together to promote the economic and political well-being of the community and agriculture. Granges grew popular in the Midwest in the late 1880s and some still exist today. The Greenback party's name referred to the non-gold backed paper money, commonly known as "greenbacks", that had been issued by the North during the American Civil War and shortly afterward. The party opposed the deflationary lowering of prices paid to producers that was entailed by a return to a bullion-based monetary system, the policy favored by the Republican and Democratic parties. Continued use of unbacked currency, it was believed, would better foster business and assist farmers by raising prices and making debts easier to pay. In additional to supporting the use of "greenbacks," the party attempted to forge a farmer–labor alliance by adding industrial reforms to its agenda, such as support of the 8-hour day and opposition to the use of state or private force to suppress union strikes. with an anti-monopoly ideology which was active between 1874 and 1889. The part faded away in the mid-1880s, but its ideals would continue to argued by "populist" and "progressive" parties into the 1900s. |

450 | Abel Fisher Civil War Pension File The following documents are from Abel Fisher's Civil War pension file. These include a Declaration for Pension in Abel which lists his birth date and place, and Civil War service. Two questionnaires detail his marriage to Ellen E. Peck and provide birth dates for their children. The poor state of Abel's health late in life is chronicled in a declaration by Abel and several affidavits and letters written by his friends, neighbors and doctor in support of his application for an Invalid Pension. The Drop Report lists Abel's date of death. The file closes with an interesting exchange between Illinois Senator William McKinley and the Bureau of Pensions. Senator McKinley's letter to Bureau of Pensions states that he is forwarding a letter of inquiry. This letter is not found in Abel's pension file but its contents can be determined from Deputy Commissioner of Pensions Hays Haymaker's reply The letter sought funding for a tombstone for Abel. Mr. Haymaker's reply states that he is returning a letter from C. E. B. Allen and advises that an "application for tombstone" be addressed to the Quartermaster General of the War Department. The file contains no further correspondence to indicate whether Mr. Allen followed up on his inquiry. |
