THE LEGISLATURE

When the Legislature assembled in
special session recently, the ADVANCE
rose to remark on that :'o-casion'
that they must not adjourn until they
had passed bill for the settlement Of
the bond question, elected U. S. Sen
ator and redistricted the State into
five congressional districts. These
objects have now been accomplished
and we are willing that they should
adjourn. They have decided to do so
next Saturday.
We shall publish the general laws
in the ADVANCE Immediately after the
adjournment.

REDLSTRICTED,

The legislature finally passed a bill
dividing Minnesota into five congress-
ional districts. Congress will doubt
less pass an apportionment bill giving
US five members, and next year W. can
proceed to the election Of that number
to represent us in the House.
Mr.. Dunnell has i, nice little district
of nine counties set off for him in the
eastern part of the State. This is
named the First district and consists
of Houston, Fillmore. Mower. Flee
horn. Steele, Dodge, Olmstead, Winona
and Wabasha.
A western district has been created
called the Second, embracing twenty
counties, rs follows:
Faribault, Blue Earth, Vaseca, Wat
onwan, Martin, Cottonwood. Jackson,
Murray, Mobiles, Rock, Pipest"nr. Lin
coin, Lyon. Redwood. Brown, Nic"llet,
Yellow Medicine, Lac qui Parle, Sibley

People are eking out fires, even for

The dealers inform us that orders

and Sioux City, of whom our local
dealers ordered, say that they cannot
obtain cars. The railroad company, on
the other hand. say that they can fur

in the wet weather, which made it i'm

Another railroad is necessity. Our
present railroad, it seems, c;.,,lot fur

lumber. Anot lei railroad, the Bur-
lineton especially, would open up
direct route to the Iowa coal fields and
the Muscatine lumber market, and
double our facilities for securing
supply of both lumber and coal. Bet.
ter still, it would give us competition
and reduce the frcights on these staple
articles. Give US the other railroad if
it costs double the $l5, 900 bonus already

A NEW PEST
Devastating the Fields of the North
west.

| CHICAGO, July 2l-A pest. that re.
sembles the army worm and that goes
by that name, though substantial differ
Iences between the two are dscernable
has made its appearance III the oat fields
of Illinois. Fine fall wheat was serious
ly damaged by the severity of the win
ter and spring wheat was retarded by
the lateleSS of the season. Farmers
have mad to plow up their wheat fields
to large extent ami SOW them with
other crops in order to get anything
from the soil, and now comes the army
worm and deyours the oats. The worm
is chiefly found in the northern part of
the State The rapidity with which it
| works is shown in the statement of one
correspondent who says that field of
forty acres of oats was destroyed in for
ty-eight hours.
The worms appear to be governed by
considerations that are unfathomobie,
for they will completely destroy one
field of oats and leave another field. sep
arated only by rail fence, untouched.
Unfortunately, however, the fields left
untouched are not very numerous. In
the fields that are ravaged the worms
discriminate carefully between the ten
der and the succulent stalks and those
that are comparatively old and dry. The
latter they avoid. The estimates of loss
can not be made with any degree of ac-
curacy. 1t is impossible to tell exactly
how much harm they have done the
fields that they have visited, because, as
just stated, they do not not destroy eve
ry stalk, and not till the CROP is harvest
ed will they know how much in t, ell
ravaged fields was too dry to suit them,
but it is certain that the damage is i'm.
mense, and in Will county, ILL.,, it is be-
lieved it cannot fall below 100000 bush |
els, and if the worms move faster than
the oats ripen the loss will exceed that.
Although the oats are the favorite food, |
the worms will not go hungry when |
they can find none of this grain. In de- |
fault of oats they attack young and juicy |
corn stalks.
CHICAGO, July 1.-THE Evening Jour-
nails Des Moines special says: The army
worm is making terrible havoc in the |
out fields of Iowa. Harvesting of the
small grain has begun in some of the
Territories and the crops which have
been gathered in will fall short of the
actual seed planted in the spring.
