Shameful Swindling.

County Assessor Stephenson was
in town this week and informs us
that an insurance agent and sharper
from St. Paul has been practicing
some of his baneful lodges upon the
Finlanders in 129-61, shamefully i'm
posing upon them on account of
their ignorance Of the English langu-
age. His scheme is to 20 through
the country in the role of assessor,
taking the value of their improve
ments, crops, ETC., which he turns
into an insurance policy of from
$1,000 to $1,500, causing them to
sign the statement which is ingeni-
ously turned into note for $40 or
more to be paid after harvest. This
occurred some ten days ago, and
when the real assessor came around
they objected to being assessed and
one of their number, who could
speak some English, informed him
of the way in which the swindle
had been perpetrated. 1t is we'll for
that insurance agent that he has
left the country. = Port Emma

The Timber Culture Law.

This amendment, by the Bismarck
Tribune will be all right if the
practice of selling out to parties who
will enter in as a pre-emption or
homestead is stopped: ,..:,r r
''One of the best things congress
coud do for Dakota would be to
provide that tree claim shall al
ways he tree claim and not turned
into a pre-emption or honest tead.
AS the law now is, the tree claim
business is fraud and does no good. .
Trees are wanted and can be had by
a proper law on the subject.-TSt
Paul Globe.
The timber culture act should not
be: abolished, as is now contemplated
by the bill before congress, but
amended, so that to be qualified to
hold a tree claim one must be an
actual resident of the township in
which he has the claim, and comply
with the provisions of the law. There
certainly ought to be some induce
ment offered to tree cultivation, and
the present law, with slight modifca-
tion, would be just the thing.T-Bis-
marck Tribune. ..,..

The Cholera in France.

Marseilles, June 3O.-Five deaths
occurred from cholera last night.
Capt. Bellant, of the navy, when
his wife was seized with the cholera,
committed suicide. M. Rochard,
chief of the naval health depart
ment, declares that the cholera was
not brought to France by any trans
port with troops from the East. In
vestigations prove the disease was
brought from Tonquin, but the sail
ors of the fleet are indignant at be-
ing charged with the responsibility
of bringing it over.
The navy department is securing
and fumigating the troop ships that
have arrived at Toulon. The local
authorities are doing all that can be
done to fight the disease. The city
looks as if it was in a state siege.
Patrols and guards hurry about the
streets; wagons filled with disinfec-
tants are dragged about through the
thorOughfares, and nurses wearing
hospital badges 60 from house to
house. Each ward in the city has a
staff of doctors told off for special
attention to its wants. and the
authorities are making great efforts
to stamp out the disease. Trade is
paralyzed and many stores are
closed. The air is thick with smoke
from the many fires burning, All
doubts about the nature Of the
disease are now at an end, and it is
admitted on all sides that it is the
Asiatict cholera. 1t Is now feared
the epidemic will have to run its
course, but it's hoped that 1t can
lbe preyeted from spreading.

JOHN NELSON;

Philadelphia Times: "Is it so,
Mr.. Ashmead, that you once helped
take Garibaldi prisoner?" Mr.. L.
P. Ashmead, who is as quiet looking
a gentleman as could be found, re-
moved his eyeglasses, and balenc-
ing them for a few moments be-
tween his finger and thumb us if to
collect his thoughts, remarked: ooh
yes, it was when was in the navy,
on the congress. 1t was on the Rio
de la Plata, off the harbor of Monte
video, on Sunday in September in
the year 1874. Garibaldi was a
river pirate then, and he and his
men were engaged in the massacre
of the sherman who used to come
out to get food for the besieged
town, which had a Buenos Ayrean
squadron in front of it and a large
force on the land side. 1t was a
sickening sight to see the bodies of
these poor fishermen, as I often have
floating by with their throats cut
like slaughtered sheep. The Carl
baldians showed no quarter, and
sent the bodies atioat in this way to
intimidate others. Well, about day
light on the Sunday in question the
officer on the deck of the Congress
noticed small schooner, with a lot
Of red-shirted, armed men on deck,
chasing some fishing boats. The
fishermen were making for a mer-
chant bark, into which the men on
the pirate craft fired a volley. Our
first lieutenant, Browning, immedi-
ately dispatched a boat and found
that the bark was the Rosalba of
New York, and that the shots from
the schooner had struck her. On
this information all hands were
called on deck, and after some shots
and a short chase schooner was cap
tured. This action incidently
brought on a sort of general engage
ment with the Buenos Ayran fleet,
but we sailed in and captured all
their ships one after another, four
in number. The Italians, including
Garibaidi, who was simple adven-
turer, remaining on board the Con-
gress until Nov. 81, when, by order
or Commodore Turner, they were
released, along with their schooner,
which was the Carlo, Few of US
who kept guard over that rough,
dirty looking lot of pirates ever
supposed that one of them would
rise to such heroic fame.''

Secret of Judge Vests Oratory

Chicago Tribune: "Who is that
sickly-looking man over there-the
one with the queer-looking eyes?"
inquired a passenger on the Pan
handle, the other night. "Don't
you know him? Why, that's Judge
West, the blind man eloquent, of
Ohio. He's on his way to Chicago,
where he will second the nomination
of Blaine, for the presidency. lie
looks like dying man, but when he
getsup before an audience he fairly
beams with fire and shines with
electric points. I'll betcher if he
dominates Blaine he'll start a SWELL
ing in the hearts of the delegates
and spectators that'll crowd up into
their troats and force out the aw-
fullest yell you ever heard. The
Judge keeps up his vigorous style
all through long speech. Even
when he's 80 weak he can hardly
stand on his legs his oratory is as
stalwart as ever. often wondered
how he did il, but never found out
until one night at a meeting sat
on the platform behind him. When
he got little weak, and it looked
as if he'd have to give up and sit
down, he reached back his hand in
which he had his kerchief, His
son-that's him there now; he's al
ways with his father-placed on it
the screw-top Of a pint flask with a
bit o. good whisky in it. The old
man raised it to his lips, and while
pretending to wipe his mouth and
noe. swallowed the tonic. 1t was
done as neat as pin, and no one
in the audience caught on. When
ever his father would begin to fail
young West would get anothersswig
ready, and it would set the. old man
going again strong as ever. He al
ways does this when he makes a
long speech, even his temperance
speeches. Oh, he's a good one,
tell you.
