Election Boomers,

Dunseith is red hot, fighting mad in fact,
over the trick played upon it in the county seat
matter. They had jubilated and jubilated and
thrown themselves loose over their victory over
St. John. About all the voting was done at
these two points, aud neither town allowed 1t
to b.. known how many votes 1t returned to the
auditor at Bismarck as cast. Dunseith made
figures about double the population of St. John
and felt safe, but the latter was equal to the
emergency. 1t allowed the runner TO get out
that it had cast less than 400 votes, and Dun
seth thought it's COB were ample. but when
the returns were opened by the auditor 1t was
found that st. John had 867. Dunseith could
have beaten III it had suspected. 1t is ev-
IDENTIFY another Illustration of the vigor of the
Dakota atmosphere when town Of 300 people
or less can cast from 700 TO 500 votes. There
is intense bitterness between the rival towns,
and the election will he contested Of course.

CRASH

tt announced that myriads Of grasshoppers
are hatchiDg in the Washington Hills nsighbor-
hood, in Jerauld county, Dakota. This was an
old breeding ground for these destroyers in BY
gone years, and It is probable that some Of the
seed has been lying dormant there since the
palmy days of the pestiferous insect. Native
born grasshoppers do not devastate beyond the
limits Of the section which produces them.
They will eat all the green things in the neigh
borhood Of their Matching beds, and as soon a.
they become full fiedged will fly southwark TO
tho warmer plains Of southern Kansas. Ex-
perience demonstrates, however, that the Da-
kota born grasshopper does not possess the
hardy vigor of the broods which formerly swept
down upon us from the far northwest. They
are degenerate type Of the original, afflicted
with disease, and short-lived. Our Washington
neighbers have the chance to destroy consid-
erahlc proportion Of their grasshopper brood
by burning the prairie grass III which they arc
now finding lodgment.-Press and Lakotaia.

A Wrecked Train.

About 8 o'clock Tuesday afternoon west
bound freight train on the st. P, NJ. & NJ rail-
road jumped the track two miles east Of Dar-
win, MIMI, near tho bridge, and as the de-
rallied cars came upon the trestle work the
bride gave way, precipitating nine cars into
the ravine below. The car which occasioned
the disaster was the third from the engine, the
latter and the two forward cars passing safely
over the bridge, while the train was broken at
the twelfth, which was stopped just on the
brink of the chasm. Luckily, none of the men
were upon the wrecked portion of the train.
The afternoon passenger train was compelled
to await special from st. Paul to transport
passengers and express eastward. The wreck
ed cars were heavily loaded, and considerable
time will be required to extricate them from
their present position and rebuild the bridge,
which has suffered almost total demolition.

Wheat from the I,ed Riyer.


The Acton District Farmers Alliance Of
Walsh County, Dakota, has recsntly besn dis
cussing the feasibility Of shipping wheat from
points on the Red river, via the Canada Pacific
railway, to Port Arthur and thence by lake TO
Chicago. The members Of that body appear
to have concluded that such a commercial out
let for their produce is highly desirable, and
they think 1t could be made with advantage to
the grain trade here as well as to that Of the
farmers Of their section. The Red River Val
ley proper now only raises about million
bushels Of wheat per year, but that quantity
could be quadrupled without difficulty If en-
couragomept were given to such increase in
the srea Of whsat culture.
As navigation on the Red river does not close
till near the middle Of November, and that on
The lakes I'LL fortnight later, there is ample
time for moving the greater part Of the wheat
