GRAssHOPPERS.
Who Is to Get that 500 900 Grasshop-
per Appropriation?
[Chicago Times.

lChlcago Times.
ST. PAUL, May The Governor
hasn't received from the coun-
ties one application for a receiver
Of grasshoppers under the county
law of last winter, which offered $780,
600 from the State, but provided that
the excess should be assessed according
to the catch of 'hoppers upon the sew
eral counties. On the contrary, he has
received numerous protests and petit
tions against the appointment Of re-
ceivers, and some counties have gone so
far as to fix salaries, as required by law,
at ten cents per day. to prevent any one
accepting the appointment. The Gov
ernor has accordingly determined not
to appoint receivers. The county au-
thorities are governed by the fear that
the above 100000 to be paid to the State
hopper catcher at the rates proposed
would bankrupt the counties and ruin
taxpayers; yet the act Offering the
bounty was strenuously urged by the
representatives of the hopper districts.
