LabOring Men.

Remember two of the three persons the
so-called Democrat is trying to foist on the
people are the paid attorneys for the Swind-
ling Railroad Company, neither of whom
has feeling in common with the people
while those the Democracy have selected
a'e men whose every sympathy is with the
masses.

the following letter, from highly respected
citizen of Long Prairie, together with the
accompanying letter, which so feelingly ex-
presses the regret of the citizens of that

WINNEBAGo AGENCY, Sept. II, "a.
Mr.. Editor-I take great pleasure in for
warding to you the enclosed letter, to the Rev.
DANIEL FISHER, for publication. A meeting
was called, and the enclosed letter was ad-
dressed to him, as slight token of respect.
The Rev. gentleman has been residing among
us for the last four months, acting as Superin-
tendent Of the Winnebago School, and Chap
lain, during the absence of the Very Rev.
CANON DE VIvALDI. 1t was with deep regret
that we babe him farewell. His remove from
any place would leave a vacuum not readily
filled; but with the limited society here, it is
more severely felt BY his suavity Of manner
and christian bearing, he has endeared himself
to all. You will notice the name of that old
veteran chief, Wacow. He came into the
meeting, and quietly noted the proceedings.
After the adjournment, he said-"I under
stand what you have met for in this Council
it is good. 1 wish my name put on the
paper" Respectfully,
F. ANDRos.

By the course Of the Railroad swindlers,
and the spectators who are interested in
the new town of Superior, that place and
its interests are placed in antagonism to the
city of St. Paul. The result Of the election
tomorrow, will have direct bearing upon
tue future interests of our young and thri-
wing city. The question plainly presented
to the residents Of St. Paul, is-Shall this
city, which, in five years, has sprung from
nothingness into the dignity and Importance
of large commercial centre, be allowed to
grow to degree commensurate with its
own possibilities, and the demands of our
expanding Territory, or shall its develop
ment be cramped, and its onward progress
stayed, by untoward legislation, and the
diversion of capital, in order that new
emporium may be created upon the soil of
another State, and the pockets of reckless
and adventurous spectators be filled, to our
cost and injury? This question must be
met and answered at the polls tomorrow
To satisfy the citizens of St. Paul that
the question is pertinent, and one entering
into this canvass, they have only to look
around them upon the elements at work in
their midst, to determine There are
score of men, residents of the new town
upon Lake Superior, self-exiled from st.
Paul, who are now here, seeking to operate
in our politics, and control our elections,
whose personal interests are separate, dis
tinct and antagonStic to those of our own
citizens. They have come here at great toll
and expense, and are attempting to use
every means Of corruption to secure a Leg
islature friendly to them and their interests.
They are here, residents of an adjoining
State, manifesting a deeper interest in our
domestic concerns, than Dine-tentbs of the
property holding, permanent citizens among
u.s.
We warn the business men of St. Paul,
owners Of property, and all those who, not
possessing a large pecuniary interest, have
yet pride in the growth and prosperity of
our beautiful Capital, against the insidious
and dangerous designs OF these reckless
spectators. Vote for such men only as
you know to be beyond their reach and III
fuence The Democratic nominees, Messrs.
DAVIS, BRAWLEY, HAUS, CAVE,
and LEMAY, are pledged by every consid
Grafton of honor and interest to oppose and
defeat their Vaccinations against your we'll
being Rally around them, and support
them with your votes, and the full measure
of your influence, and send these specula-
tors back to their homes, where they belong,
covered with your indignation at their I'M
pudent interference in your political affairs.

THE RAIN THAT CA USED INSANITY.
FROM THE PORTUGUESE

Once on May morning fell shower
All whom it wcttcd turned insane;
One man alone, in lucky hour,
: CAS- he thought) escaped the rain.
1t chancd amid the springing wheat
He stood the fair fields gazing over;
But sawblack clouds above him meet
Ran fast and got him under cover.
Next day the madmen scorned the wise;
One struck him fllips on the nose
One polk his fingers at his eyes
One gave him kicks, another blows
One, laughing, cried, !" That idiot sce!"
Our martyr, completely fretted,
Exclaimed No peace remains for me,
Till /, too, like the rest, am wetted."
A pool, made by the rain, he found
Bath d and was cured of common sense,
The neighbors ran, flew, rush'd around,
To greet him with due Difference
Some bowling low, come fattering loud,
Some gifts with eager kindness handing,
He march'd off with the joyous crowd,
Now match d with them in understanding.
