By A. W. MACY. Two or three explanations of why the people of Illinois are called “Suckers” have been given, but probably the most plausible is the one in connec- tion with the lead mines at Ga- fena. In the early settiement of the Mississippi valley marvelous stories were circulated concern- ing fortunes made at the mines, and these attracted to Galana and vieinity a great many of the Il nols farmers, especially from the lower portion of the state. It was customary for them, after putting In their spring crops, to ascend the Mississippl and la- bor at the mines until fall, and then return to gather their crops; thus imitating the fish called suckers, which ascend the river in spring to deposit their spawn, and return in the fall. Hence such persons were called “Suckers,” and the term be- came general in its application to all the citizens of the state. (Copyright, 1811, by Joseph: B.
