HISTORY OF GUTHRIE COUNTY.
PATENTS.
As the inventive genius of our people must not go unno- ticed, I will give a few of the results of the exercise of this faculty.
In 1868 Hill and Roberts invented the 14-mile gun, for which they secured patents in the United States and France.
" The principle of this invention is, that a series of pro- jectiles are meshed one with another, like a nest of boxes, each attached to the other by a fuse connected with a charge of powder. At a given distance from the gun the first charge explodes, giving new impetus to the projectile, then the second and third, and so on to the last, the last projec- tile receiving the force of the charge, until it has over- reached the distance in which that of common balls are usu- ally spent."
In 1872 Wells McCool invented a riding attachment for plows and harrows; in the same year he made an improve- ment on this invention, and also invented a spring bed bot- tom, for each of which he received patents.
In 1873 he invented a walking gang plow, which is a doub- le stirring plow, that will, with one man and three horses do the work of two men and four horses, thus lightening la- bor and saving expense.
Previous to the spring of 1854 all the breaking was done by large and clumsy plows with wooden mold boards; finally these were improved upon by using steel mold- boards, but with either, it was necessary to use five or six yoke of oxen. In the spring of '54 Mr. E. B. Newton in- augurated a reform in breaking prairie, by using a new light stirring plow drawn by two horses.
Until he demonstrated, beyond a doubt that it could be done, his neighbors ridiculed the experiment às likely to be a failure.
Now we have become so used to improvements, that we are "not surprised at any thing." 4

In 1860 Mrs. Michael Rosebrugh invented and had pat- ented, a bleaching box, said by milliners to be a labor-sav- ing and useful invention.
In 1876 Marshall Willy invented and had patented a flexible and adjustable farm gate. This is adjustable, so as to open or slide over snow-drifts, and to separate small stock from large.
John Cline invented and patened a bag-filler, for the fill- ing of paper sacks, with groceries, flour, etc., and also for filling grain sacks. The invention consists in a bag-filler which will accomodate itself automatically to different sized sacks, in combination with a pivoted, vertical arm. A stand is attached to the counter, having at its upper end a socket to receive the lower portion of the vertical rod; the upper portion of this vertical rod is removable from the stand; a horizontal arm having at one end prongs, to which one section of the funnel is rigidly secured, and the other end is pivoted in the mortise in the upright rod. There is a flexible section of the funnel, which is pivoted to the upper end of the fixed section by rivets, which allows it to swing outward and upward, thereby accomodating itself to sacks of different sizes. The sack is suspended on a hook attached to the rear end of the fixed section.
WOMEN OF GUTHRIE.
When a county, town or city improves rapidly, it is said to have an enterprising, energetic, "go-ahead " class of men at the head of its affairs. This is true, but it is only half the truth. Unless woman stands shoulder to shoul- der with man, uniting her influence and efforts with his, the whole business as well as social world must be at a stand still, to say nothing worse.
While I appreciate and admire all that is noble and manly in man; acknowledge the superiority of his physical strength; respect his energy and perseverance in business; in short, confess this would be a "queer world " without him, and lonesome, too; yet I do think there is too much
189
HISTORY OF GUTHRIE COUNTY.
exacted of women and too little credit given them for the good they accomplish.
Show me a farmer who has surrounded himself with broad acres, and I will show you a woman whose industry, tact, and economy have played an important part in winning these same broad acres. Show me a successful man in any business and nine times out of ten I will show you a woman whose judgment and economy have accomplished even more than his own exertions.
I do not mean by this, that all men who fail of success have extravagant or ignorant wives; oh, no, indeed. Many a poor, illy clad, worked-to-death, heart-weary wife, treads the domestic tread-mill unceasingly, economizes with patch upon patch, and yet her liege lord does not succeed.
But where in society, in business, in religion, in politics even, men succeed, nine times out of ten; could you get at the root of the matter, the first cause as it were, you would find woman a greater help than most men are willing to ac- knowledge.
Now, my good friends, I am not throwing stones at any of you, I am simply preparing the way for a little just praise of the many good women of Guthrie county. If we have any bad ones, we will kindly draw the veil of silence round them, and prove to you by illustration, that the de- velopment of our beautiful adopted home, Guthrie, is as much due to our women as to our men.
I ask you to look back upon the revolution in our Con- gregational church society in Stuart, upon the advent of Reverend Mr. Todd. How did he inaugurate a reform ? Mr. Todd, though a gentleman, a thoroughly good man, and an excellent minister, has a woman to help him; a wife whose just appreciation of woman's work, gives her cour- age to be true to her trust. She has had admirable aids in the persons of many of her neighbors, whose willing hands and kind wishes, have seconded her efforts to bring harmo- ny and sociality, not only in their own society, but to the people generally.
190
HISTORY OF GUTIIRIE COUNTY.
What little band of men, without means, save willing hands and hearts, would have undertaken, as did Mrs. Dixon and a few other ladies, to build a church ? Yes, actually, a church and free reading room, which has been accom- plished in less than a year. How did they pay for it ? With the proceeds of concerts, festivals, mite societies, etc., and to the perseverance, energy and courage of a few wo- men, we are indebted for a free reading room.
We have a woman at the head of the Methodist Sabbath School,and no man would be a better Superintendent than Mrs. Dr. Beach, or more assiduous in his efforts to educate and elevate the little ones up to a high standard of mor- ality.
It has been demonstrated that women, as educators, are equal, if not superior to men. Prominent among them is Mrs. J. B. Hatch, who was for several years, previous to her 'removal to Guthrie county, Principal of the public schools of Burlington. She has been a resident of the county several years, during which time she taught school in Casey; conducted Teacher's Institutes, and normal schools. She is also a fine elocutionist, giving readings at different places in the county and State. In whatever field of labor she has been engaged she has distinguished herself, as she excels in all her undertakings. I regret to state the fact that Mrs. Hatch has concluded to leave us, and take up her residence in Des Moines.
Most prominent among the women who have labored for the recognition of the importance of woman's work is Mrs. Emma W. Harlan. Mrs. Harlan was married at the age of sixteen; came to the county when it was wild and new; is the mother of a large family of children, (eight or nine) and yet she has found time for reflection, and action upon all the important topics of the times. During the war she had the courage to make patriotic speeches-a thing but few women had the courage to do. She was agent for our coun- ty for the Soldier's Orphan's Home. She has, upon several occasions, read the Declaration of Independence for Fourth
191
HISTORY OF GUTHRIE COUNTY.
of July Celebrations, and has found time to prepare and deliver several temperance lectures. Besides all this, she has been a frequent contributor to the newspapers. What man would or could have accomplished more ? A man may accomplish more in one line of business, or one kind of work, than a woman, but I defy men to look after and keep track of as many different things as women do.
Mrs. Saranda Leinart Young, of Panora, has distin- guished herself by her superior penmanship, pen flourish- ing, pen drawing, etc. She has been a successful teacher of both schools and penmanship; graduated at the Commer- cial College, Des Moines. At her home may be seen speci- mens of her work, which excite the admiration and wonder of the beholder.
We have in Stuart a genuine poetess, whose lyric num- bers wake many a responsive echo in sympathetic hearts. Though an invalid for many years, scarce able to leave her bed, she possesses the pure and childlike faith that enables her to see good in all things. Confined to her home, her mission is accomplished by reaching the hearts of others through the pen. This lady is Sarah E. Elliott.
In the very humblest walks of life we find heroism in wo- men, seldom exhibited, under like circumstances, by men. As an instance, we have among us a woman educated in German, French and Latin, who takes in washing to sup- port eight or nine children, that being the only work for which she can receive sufficient remuneration to enable her to keep her family together. I refer to Mrs. Oakes.
Miss Ida Crockett, one of the teachers in our public schools at Stuart, a beautiful (in the true sense of the word) young lady, who was educated at Englewood, has already distinguished herself as an elocutionist. If one so young and retiring can hold an audience spell-bound now, the world will yet hear of her.
Our lady teachers are doing a good work for the rising generation. There are so many in the county, we cannot particularize, but their work is so well understood, and their
192

efforts so generally appreciated that, as a class, they may congratulate themselves as taking the lead in woman's work.
We have many, very many good women and true, who though but little known outside of their own families, are nevertheless, by their quiet home influence, doing much for the refining of society, the education of the rising genera- tion, and consequently, for the development and improve- ment of our county. Most of our pioneer women are found in this latter class, and their children are among our most promising young men and women. Among those whose sensitive, unobtrusive and retiring natures, would forbid the use of their names in print, I take the liberty to mention Mrs. Capt. Seeley. Coming from a home of lux- ury and refinement, to the "western wilds," with its disad- vantages, she has, nevertheless, done a noble work in rear- ing a family of noble, manly boys, and beautiful and intelligent girls.
A great many men (that means most of them) think and feel, that they are born to command and to plan, and women, to obey and to execute. Perhaps they are, but had I time and space, I think I could disprove this. How- ever, I will not quarrel with you, my big brothers, but simply ask you to give to my sisters, the credit due them, for the work they have done and are doing for Guthrie.
CENSUS RETURNS.
The census of 1875 was the thirteenth taken by State authority, and the twenty-first enumeration of the inhabi- tants, of what is now the State of Iowa, by whatever authority made.
In 1836, under the provisions of the act of Congress, or- ganizing the Territory of Wisconsin, Gov. Henry C. Dodge caused a census of the new Territory to be taken. The population was then 10,531, found in the counties of " De- moine " and Dubuque, creations of the Territorial legisla- ture of Michigan, and comprising all the organized terri-

tory north of the northern line of the State of Missouri, from the Mississippi to the Pacific.
In 1838 the organic act for Iowa Territory, provided for an enumeration thereof. This was taken under the direction of the Governor of the Territory, Hon. Robert Lucas.
The number of inhabitants was 22,859, more than double the previous census.
Since this time, the increase has been rather spasmodic, owing to circumstances which always influence immigra- tion.
The average annual increase, during the Territorial de- cade, was 8,706, or, 82.67 per cent.
First decade of the State, 42,147, or, 43.19 per cent.
From 1856 to 1865, 26,183, or, 5.04 per pent.
During the next decade, 59,584, or 7.89 per cent.
The present population of the State is 1,350,544.

In 1851 was 222
In 1852 was. 300
