the largest political gathering ever had
in this town was at Richmond's hall
this evening to listen to F. B. Nash's
tariff reform speech. Mr.. Nash spoke
at length on the benefit the working
man and the public generally have
from tariff reform, and gave fxures to
prove his assertions. He says taxes
must be reduced, not on whisky aud
tobacco, but on the necessaries of life.
He said and spoke for a fact that
at the present time every dollar put
into the treasury takes just S. out of the
workingman. He stated the working
man wanted all the wages entitled to
him according to his work, and after
paying his necessary expenses he
wanted all the luXuries he could get. A
workingman, he said, was entitled to
these luxuries just as well as the rich
man and manufacturer, who is robbing

was lengthy and to the point, and I'M

Yesterday afternoon between and 5

the coteaux near Traverse, a point
nearly opposite Browns Valley, and
ruined all the crops in its wake. The

and the length of its damage thus far
known in Minnesota and Dakota is
about ten miles. The following farmers

ties, John Ogrum and Bucker Bros, of
Dakota; Ed Brawler, Mr.. Davidson,
Lars Anderson, Frank Becker, Andrew
Parker, Charles Prefer, John Maher

The storm crossed Big Stone lake

cloud and hail and lightning, with
thunderous roar, and the other on a
