Union says that ! drop and 2 half Of 'F
strychnine was administered to 2 = grass
hopper, and he was then placed n y 9 9

whole days after which he came out as
live as a cricket After this . lump6of

seem to disturb the grasshopper's peace
of mind in the least. After this more
acid was applied and kept on until the

Gentlemen, its no use, you cant clean
out the ,grasshoppers in this way in

The New Departure.

We understand that the farmers of
Goodhue County are talking of calling
a convention sometime in September for
the purpose Of considering what, if any,
political action they will take this Fall.
This is very important movement, and
one that should be carefully considered.
That the producing classes will have to
take more leading and active part in
the government Of the country than they
have been taking, before they may ex-
pect to have their rights fully established
and their grievances fully redressed, is
beyond all question.
It is in vain that they denounce Credit
Mobilier Swindles, in vain that they
storm about the Back Pay Grab, in vain
that they inveigh against corruption in
high places, and bitterly complain of
partial legislation, unless they take the
lines in their own hands, they might as
well bray at the moon. The politicians
are not afraid of storm and bluster, but
when the people begin to act, then they
will begin to fear and tremble.
You cannot split rock with argu-
ments. You cannot fight the bristling,
cleaning, pointed bayonets with mud
You cannot tunnel the mountains with
toothpicks. No more can you strike
down corruption with talk. Every evil
has its appropriate remedy. The proper
remedy for the evils of the present times
is the BALLOT. God given The
highest and most sacred inheritance of
every freeman. He who fails to use it
as he ought is more guilty than was Ja-
cob in selling his birthright for mess
of pottage.
Hitherto the masses have been too
negligent in this respect. They have al
lowed the politicians to run things to
suit themselves. Instead of voting like
intelligent, responsible citizens, who must
account to posterity and to God for their
every act Of citizenship, they have al
lowed themselves to be voted. We trust
a better day is dawning.
Let the farmers of Goodhue county
meet and act, but act with deliberation,
with prudence, with sense of the re-
sponsibility that rests upon them. Your
proceedings will be watched with intense
interest by your brethren throughout
the State. The opportunity is yours to
make proud record for yourselves and
your country. Are you ready for the

Ex-Governor Herbertof Louisiana (no
relative to Herbert of the ADvANcE)
has written letter favoring Grant
for third term, although he is, or pre-
tends to be, democrat. The matter
is easily understood when we remember
that Herbert (not the ADVANCE man,
but the Louisiana chap) has recently
been appointed levee commissioner un-
der the new act Of Congress at salary
of $1,000 per ahnln,: which is good
thing for Herbert (of louisiana and
undoubtedly enables him to see the
third term policy in a very clear light.

Mr.. Dunnell claimed in his speech at
Owatonna, that he was authorized le-
gal!y, constitutionally, and morally" to
take and keep the back pay under the
salary grab act. Now, if he was NOR
ally authorized to take and keep the
money, he was morally authorized to
vote for the act, and yet he has spoken
and written volumes to attempt to prove
that he was opposed to the act and voted
against it. His own words are almost
conclusive proof that he favored the
measure, and in an underhanded, sneak
ing, unmanly way aided it. Never will

Judge Mitchell Of Winona peremp-
torily declines being a candidate for
Congress in the First District. Few
men in the State are better qualified for
that position than he is. A finished
scholar, an able and upright Judge, and
man Of stern integrity. Upon the
death Of Judge Waterman, he was NOM
mated and supported by both parties as
the successor Of the deceased Judge,
and almost unanimously elected.
Judge Mitchell admits that he is not
indifferent to the proposition of his
name for Congress, but alleges that
reasons Of private and personal nature
absolutely preclude the idea of his be-.
ing candidate this fall.

The St. Paul Press estimates the
damage done by the grasshoppers in
this State at $3,0OO,000 Terrible and
widespread as the devastation of these
pests has been, we do not believe the
damage to exceed one-half Of that
amount There is no necessity Of max
ing the matter any worse than it is. 1t
is bad enough at the best. The Press
seems to forget that all the labor Of
harvesting, stacking, threshing and
marketing has not, and will not be ex-
pended upon the destroyed crop.
The terrible drouth that has been
prevailing in the South and South
western portion of Kentucky is utterly
destroying the crops, and, indeed, vege-
tation. The earth is parched to a,
Ffrisp, the rivers: and streams are dry
ing up, and vegetation is charring in
the burning sun. The drouth has been
continuous ever since seeding time, and
extends over about twenty-five counties.
The grasshopper calamity Of Minnesota
and Iowa sinks into insigni6cance in
comparison with the more terrible dis
aster of Kentucky.
We notice that D. L. Buell. of Huston
county is very generally spoken of as
the opposition candidate in the first
Congressional district Of this State.
We have not the pleasure of an ac-
quaintance with Mr.. Buell., but we hear
him very highly spoken Of We un-
derstand that in earlier life he was a
practicing lawyer, but that Of late years
he has been exclusively devoted to farm

AN AUTUMN SUaaEsTIoN.-Now, as

body, exhausted like inanimate nature

and droop: now, ere the inclement

the time for preparatory course of
the best aceiimatizing medicine in ex.

Fever and Ague is rampant in all
parts OF the country. Quinine, the
physicians admit, will not quell the
phase OF the disease which at present
pervades the entire West. It is we'll
that it is so, for the remedy (so. .called)
is deadlier than the malady. But if

given "tever-and-asue district" should
be exempted from the disorder for any
particular time. provided every inha.
bitant would take the Bitters accord.
ing to directions during the. term of
contract. There has never been an in.
stance in which this sterling invigo.
rant and anti.ferbile medicine has
failed TO ward off the complaint, when
taken duly as protection against ma
laria. Hundreds OF physicians have
abandoned all the offioinal specifics,
and now prescribe this harmless yege-
table tonic, and nothing else, as n pre-.
ventive and cure for all the forms of
chills and fever. Vigor is the thing
most needful in these cases, as we'll as

acidity and belching up of wind.
These symptoms usually originate from
a disordered condition Of the stomach
