Colorado ana the Grasshoppo s.

The grasshoppers that pretty near
ly cleaned out Colorado last year,
have appeared again this year in great
swarms. A letter thence says: "The
farmers are fighting them by all the
means in their power. They sluice
them down the bitches with water,
gather them up in heaps and burn
them-ior the water will only collect
and will not drown these pests. They
set cans Of coal oil, dripping slowly
at the heads Of their bitches, and the
slightest touch of the oily film, float
ing down with the running water,
destroys the young grasshopper.-
They drag the ground with huge
harrows, covered with blazing brush,
and the flame scorches its tiny mil
lions to death, They draw papers or
platforms smeared with tar along the
fields, and the insects, trying to hop
over, fall on the tar and stick there.
With all these devices they only thin
out the unwelcome visitors. All
Colorado is watching the result Of
these efforts with chronological in
tcrest. Will the farmers or the
grasshoppers come out ahead? VIII
the latter fly away as soon as they
develope wings; and, il so, vii! other
broods be brought III by strong prai-
RE winds? If the crops fail again,
look out for blue times in Colorado"

The platform adopted by the St.
Louis Convention has much to say of
reform, and lays particular stress up
on the necessity of economy in the
expenditures of the government
The difference between Democratic
preaching and practice is shown by
the action of the House on the bill
to equalize soldiers bounties. This
measure will add, according to the
estimates of treasury officials, from
$l0o,00O,000 to $3.50, 100000 to the
burdens of taxation, and is without
justification on any ground. 1t was
not asked for by those in whose name
1T was passed, no obligation of duty
demanded it, nor would the soldiers
be benefited by it to any considerable
extent, as it is well known that should
the bill become law, the great bulk
of the money would go into the peck
cts of attorneys and claim agents,
who alone worked for its passage. -
1t was simply political dodge to
catch the soldiers votes, and for this
partisan purpose the Democratic
House, which PIRATES SO much about
economy, was willing to expend one
hundred millions of the peoples
money. To show the average senti-
ment of the country regarding this
measure we give the following ex-
tract from the New York DAILY BuL
ietin, a commercial paper, the editors
of which are all Democrats:
Tue passage of the soldiers bounty bill
by the House yesterday, is most dis,
graceful piece of political trickery 1t
was simply disreputable attempt to con
ciliate the soldiers vote at the expense of
the country. What can be thought of the
sincerity of the House in standing out for
a reduction of $40, 900, 900 in the govern
ment expenditures and then voting to
throw away ali equal amount as party
bride? 1t is to be hoped tho Senate will
have seif-rcspect enough to reject the pro-
posal, with what political consequences
may follow. The House has made an ex-
hibit of character which, we confess, we
were not prepared to expect.

:. 1t is also observable that the men who
q are blowing their bazoos the loudest, and
4 prating the most jealous about tine duties

der no possible circumstances, could be in
duced to cast Democratic electoral vote.
Here is NJ M. Ham, editor of the Dubuque
Herald. To hear him talk one would
think Iowa was sure Of a Democratic
). nominee.
1t is not probable that Ham ex-
poets to make anybody believe that
the Democracy will come within So

of playing the confidence game in
politics has become second nature
to him, and he is simply carrying out,

-6envention, the petty trickery and
demogogueism which every day
comes to the surface in the columns
of the Herald.

Mr.. Wheeler's Personal Appearance.
Letter In New York Times


AS all who have not had the pleas,
ure of meeting and conversing with
Mr.. Wheeler are more or less inter.
ested in his personal appearance and
disposition, your correspondent may
here say that he is one of the most
impressive and at the same time one
of the most agreeable of the public
men who have been brought before
the country in connection with ma
tional positions. He is about the
medium height, strong in limb, and
commanding In mien, and with feat
ures indicating great firmness, com.
bined with quick perception, Mr..
Wheeler, in speaking of his nomina-
ton, said that it was unexpected by
him, and that, If his personal wishes
were consulted, he would rather re-
main in his seat in the House of Rep,
resentatives. He expressed hearty
approval of the platform. AS far as
regarded his own name in the can
vass, Mr.. Wheeler had no fear that
the mud batteries of the enemy could
effect anything. His record in his
own home (the St. Lawrence DISTRICT
the banner district of the State, his
connection with the Constitutional
Convention, and his five terms OF
service in Congress were open to
public examination, and he was con
tent to leave it at that.
