FOREIGN INSECTS.

The Entom0LOgist calls attention to
the fact that European insects and
weeds are naturalized in America
with far more facility than ours are
naturaliZed there, and even crowd out
the insects indigenous to us. Thus
we have native currant worm very
much like the one imported nearly
twenty years ago from Europe; but it
has never done any damage, while
already the imported one has in some
places almost stopped the cultivation
of the currant. Our onion fly does
scarcely any hurt, while the imported
fly, to which it is just the same with
the imported bark louise of the apple
tree, and the worm beetle. Among
other pests Of European origin are
the Hessian fly, introduced nearly
one hundred years ago; the wheat
nudge, fifty years ago; the bee moth,
cheese maggot, grain Weevll, house
fly, cockroach, and carpet and clothes
moths. Among the weeds are Cana
da thistle, mayweed, oXeye daisy, bur-
dock and chess cheat. In fact, the weed
the gardener has to contend with
are nearly all European. On the 9th
er hand scarcely an American noxiOuS
weed, plant or insect has been sue
cessfully introduced into Europe. If
the potato bug succeeds in etfecting a
Judgement on Europeae shores he will
10 much to help balance the account.

The Peoples Party in Olmsted
County.
Z Splendid Convention.
4 Union of all the Elements.

The Rochester Record and Union
says:
The largest and most enthusiastic
convention ever held by the OPPOSE
ton, was the one that occurred at the
Court House last Saturday afternoon.
Every town, village and ward in the
county, with the exception of Orion,
was represented, which gave unmis-
taxable evidence that no part of the
interest taken by the Opposition in
county matters has abated.
4 full county ticket was nominated,
and it consists of gentlemen of the
highest standing in the community
and men peculiarly fitted for the posi-
lions to which they were nominated.
And what is a notable fact, the nOmi.
nees were the choice of the people.
and not of a ring or combination of
any kind.
With the exception of the Judge of
Probate. the ticket does not include
one of the old officers. And this is
from no lack of confidence in them.
On the contrary. the universal opinion
is that no more capable or faithful
officers ever served the people of
Olmsted county.
The following is the record of the
proceedings from the same paper.
PEOPLES INDEPENDENT CONVENTION
One of the largest and most enthu
siastic delegate conventions ever held
in this county by the Opposition, as
sembled at the Court House last Sat
urday afternoon, for the purpose OF
nominating a county ticket. Delegate:
were present from every election pre-
cinct, except the township of Orion.
On motion of I. S. Stevens, the chair
appointed I. s. Stevens, Z. T. News
