Illinois. It is not deemed possible for
the locust to perpetuate itself for more
than one generation in this climate.
Their native home is in the rainless des-
erts of the Rockies, and moisture is their
bane. Besides this they are afflicted
with parasites, one of which is little
red insect about as large as pin point,
and visible to the eye. In the grass
hopper visitation of 1S74-75 in Minnesota,
from one to three Of these little red bugs
could be found on every hopper. In
the early seventies there were more or
less 'hoppers in parts of the Red river
valley and Minnesota, for about five or
six years. Whether we will. ever have
them again in such large quantities is a
pro blem. But we really don't know
why we shouldn't, and if they should
it's pretty near no crop that year, and a
hard fight the next year. 1t would al
ways be in order for the Red river val

A CIPHER FOR A UNIT.

AS we write, the Pembina county dele.
CATION to the state convention is being
selected at Neche. We are afraid that
Mr.. LaMoure will be selected to lead the
delegation again, as has been done for
some several years agone. We sincerity
regret this probability because it will so
CRATE on the liver, spleen and other "oil-
factories" within the corporosity of the
genial and warm-hearted editor of the
Fargo Forum, who some years since left
off caring for the widows and orphans OF
Illinois, and crossed the Red river in or
der to steer the North Dakota ship of
state clear of sunken Hill tops and
Dodge other shoals.
The boys might have left Jud home
just this once if only to please the Major;
but it is quite evident that either the
Pemblna county people do not read the
Forum, or else they think the Major is a
prevaricator, and the Major says himself
that Everybody reads the Forum"
And not only will the convention elect
Jud as delegate, but they will put the
unit rule" harness on the the team. OF
course they are wrong again. The Forum
will come out tomorrow and prove that
Jud is the unit, and be mad about it.
We think however, Major, the trou.
BILE is, that it is probable Pembina
county people don't know Jud, in spite
of the large number ofForums that come
to the county. Now, we suggest, that
when the boys get to Fargo, you corral
them in the Forum Office and tell 'em
about Jud. Show them about seven
eighths of the Forum "Fists' for the last
three months. Tell them about "Roach, ("
and "Johnny Haas" and prohibition, -
and 'Jim Hill" Perhaps they never
heard about those things, perhaps they
don't read, can't write and they are only
a tribe ofignorant, halfbreed, reservation
Indian folks up here anyway. And if
you are sharp, maybe you can get these
simple tribesmen to believe that 90"
when it stands for you is just the same
and good deal better than the unit that
stands for Jud. That grand, great, round
"O," that is your physical, moral and
political secret cipher and will represent
your scalp after the convention.
Try 'em Major, you say they are easy
led astray. Try 'em yourself in your
own, sweet, seductive way.

Editors OF the PIONEER EXPRESS:
This seems to be an unusually bad
year for weeds and some of the farmers
are beginning to take some interest in
the destruction Of them. Would you be
kind enough to publish the bylaws for
the determination of weeds, as approved
by the county commissioners, in your
next ISSUE Yours truly,
z. w. ROGERS.
In reply we may say that so far as we
remember, the county board has not
published any noxious weedsnotice. this
year, though possibly we may be mis-
taken. The following is the state 1897
law amending Sec. 1883 OF Revised Code.

Twin Conventions.

Twin convention calls are at hand, one
signed by F. ]. Thompson, chairman of
the state central committee of the indie
pendent party and the other by Thomas
Kleinogle, chairman and E. c. Carruth,
secretary of the democratic state COM
mittee. Each call is for state conven-
ton for the nomination of state officers,
both conventions to be held at the same
hour and place, to-wit: the Opera House,
Fargo on Tuesday, July 18th, at 10
o'clock a. m. The basis of the indepen-
dent representation is two delegates at
large for each county and one delegate
for each hundred votes cast for Hon. r.
B. Richardson. The basis of the demo-
cratic representation is the same as above
except that the vote for John Burke is
counted. This gives for some of the
laroect counties the fOl1owino.
The pioneer express. [volume] (Pembina, Dakota [N.D.]) 1883-1928, 1898-07-01

One of the peculiar things in state
politics is the calling of the twin fusion
convention in such a hurry. So far as
we remember they have usually waited
until after the republicans have made
their nominations. This time they wait
ed until the republicans fixed their date,
and then jumped in between and fixed a
date which comes so soon after the call
that it will be difficult to get it out in
time to hold the township caucuses and
county conventions which must precede
the state convention.

MR.. ROACH OF NORTH OAK.

Washington, June 27.-In the senate
to-day, MIR. Roach of North Dakota, de.
livered an argument against the annexa-
tion of Hawaii. After protesting against
bringing under the United States govern
ment such people as formed the bulk of
the Hawaiian population, MIR. Roach. ad-
vanced the novel argument that the Un-
tied States should not annex the islands,
as their existance was problenatic.
They were liable to be swallowed up by
the sea in an earthquake. Further along
he maintained that if annexation was to
be effected by resolution, the PROPOSE
ton ought to be first submitted to the
1aWaiians themselves for ratification.
Any other course would tend to destroy
the very foundation of the United States
government by subversion of the prin-
clple that this government is based upon
the consent of the governed.-Press dis
patches.
There has always been something of
the ridiculous attached to North Dakota's
politics and politicians in the eyes of the
outside world, and it remains for the
senator from North Dakota to prove to
a listening universe that the soil that
raises No. l hard, is also prolific of more
damphoolishness that any other piece of
dirt of equal area in the world Every
body has heard of the Irishmen who on
landing in New York refused to pick up
a silver dollar lying in the street, because
he expected to find gold ones in plenty
little farther on, but Mr.. Roach is even
more pessimistic. He refuses to pick
up the gold dollar because he might lose
it by an Earthquake" after taking the
trouble to pick it up. Oh Golly.

GRAsssiOPPERs.

Out in Eddy and Foster counties in
the southwestern part of the state, they
are reporting the presence of Rocky
mountain locusts. The fact that these
are the young ones hatched from eggs,
proves that except in some isolated local
tiles, that the visitation is not serious.
When these migratory insects come from
their native haunts in the Rocky noun
tains in numbers which threaten any
widespread destruction, the quantities are
sufficient to attract attention, and yet we
heard nothing about them last year. 1t
is more than twenty years since the hop
pers have visited here in any great num-
bers, and then they came like snow
storm. Sometimes they pass over, go
ing no one knows where, but the first
notice is, that away up hundred feet or
more in the air, one can see by looking
against the sun, myriads of white specks
floating along with the wind. When
they light, in half an hour the ground is
nearly covered with full grown 'hoppers.
Perhaps they will stay few hours or
days and then fly away again. Gener-
ally when they light they stay, and they
have great appetites. However, they
seem to be rather fonder of tender vege-
tables and grain crops than of prairie
grass; though they can and do eat most
anything, including, cloth, bark, leaves,
etc.
The amount OF destruction they can
create is marvellous, and they usually
eat every green thing in sight. When at
this age they are very difficult to deal
with, as they come and light in the grain
fields when the grain is high, and it is
impossible to go into the fields after
them except it destroys the grain. Some.
times at night they can be gathered hy
the. buslel from fences and bushes, as
they have habit of ''roosting.". I'm
mediately after their arrival, the females
begin to deposit their eggs, They dig
round holes with their tails = in the
stubble or similar ground, about the size
ofa mans finger. and put about fifty eggs
which look like maggots all coiled around
In each hole. and then close it. The
next season the young hatch about the
time the grain begins to grow, and they
start in procession like an army after il.
They will walk across good wide field
y : day, and leave not spear behind
them. sl.ss
