Swift which has been strong far
mer-labor territory.
In Swift, Elmer Benson this year
as compared with the vote for
Floyd Olson for governor In 1884,
lost 375 per cent Martin Nelson,
on the other hand, gained 35.6 per
cent. Strangely, no mention Of this
has appeared in farmer-labor pa
pers. In Swift county the total far
mer-labor vote for governor this
year fell off 27.2 per cent, but the
total republican vote for governor
increased IL per cent. Strangely, no
mention Of this has appeared in
farmer-labor papers.
If there Is anything else about
the primary vote this year that the
Misleader would like to have the
republicans mention the G. o. p.
will be happy to accommodate.
There is practically nothing about
the June Is, 1886 primary that does
not cause the republicans to
chuckle.
This attempt Of the Misleader to
create political capital by using a
single vote and suppressing all the
rest recalls another pit the Mis-
leader dug and then fell into fol-
lowing the 1884 campaign. In big,
black type the Misleader exulted
that Governor Olson had carried
not only Martin Nelson's home
town of Austin by 244 votes but al
so Nelson's own precinct by So
votes. Some pesky republican look
ed up the vote in Governor Olson's
ward and precinct in Minneapolis
and found that Martin Nelson had
carried the governors ward by s.
DOB and the governors precinct by
366.
Changes that portend no good to
the farmer-labor ticket seem to be
taking place in Minnesota. While
Governor Olson got a few more
votes in Austin than did Martin
Nelson in 1884, Martin Nelson this
year had more than to 1 over
Benson in the City of Austin.
No sessions Of the supreme court
will be held during July and Aug
ust. The individual justices are in
and out, however; decisions in
pending cases have not yet been
all completed but will probably be
handed own each Friday during
July.
Justice Holt, senior member of
the court, when asked what he
meant to do during his vacation
days, responded, ooh, come and
CO." and that is his regular routine,
for he Is to be found at his desk at
seven o'clock every morning ex-
cept rare occasions when he goes
fishing. One of these mornings
was the opening of the bass season
this year. Judge Holt was missing
that morning but he returned at
night with his full limit.
The docket of cases heard will
be pretty well cleaned up before
the September sitting Of the court.
The highway department has al
most $1,000,000 more in cash re-
ceipts today from motor vehicle
licenses than it had at this time
last year. The total receipts from
motor vehicle licenses for the first
six months of 1896 are SLABS, 075.36,
which is more than the receipts of
the entire II months of 1885.
The total registration of automo-
biles, trucks, ETC., for the first six
months of 1886 is 752.505, almost

PROGREsSIvE-REPUBLICAN

The Minnesota Misleader, in its
issue of July 4th, in a box at the
top of page 5, reveals the fact that
Martin Nelson polled 3,407 votes in
his home county, Mower, at the
primary election this year, while in
1884 Mr.. Nelson polled 1859 votes.
Strangely" says the Misleader,
mo mention OF this fact has APP
peared in any Of the republican pa
pers."
On the face Of it it looks a bit
bad for Martin Nelson, as the Mis-
leader intended it should, but as a
matter of fact the Misleader has
done Martin Nelson and the repub-
lican party in Minnesota a good
turn by bringing the matter up. A
single vote, such as that quoted by
the Misleader, may seem to indi-
cate one thing, but an examination
of all the votes often indicates the
exact opposite. That is exactly the
situation here.
There was a falling off in the
primary vote in Mower county
from 1884 to 1886. Martin Nelson's
vote fell off % per cent but Elmer
Benson's vote fell off 60 per cent.
Strangely no mention of this fact
appeared in the Misleader. The to-
tai republican vote on governor fell
off this year in Mower county 20
per cent, but the total farmer-la-
Dor vote for governor fell off 1855
per cent. Strangely no mention of
this fact appeared in the Mislead-
err.
Since the Misleader has brought
this matter up, let us examine not
only the vote of Martin Nelson's
home county but the vote, also, of
Elmer Benson's home county OF

veranda, directly under the tree where the caterpillars were most numerous. Fearful that the bugs would enter the attic as they were dropping in great numbers on the roof, Mrs. Sharkey this morning noe tified Mrs. Brucevir, who called the fire marshal's ofiice.
 "Dlamond BacISs" \
 The bugs are not of the tent cater pillar type which last year to an even greater extent than this sea- son infested the state. They are somewhat larger in size, and with a peculiar marking. An amateur eI1- tomologist on the staff of the fire marshal suggested that they be called diamond backs"
 Mrs. Sharkey said she first noticed the caterpillars about two weeks ago when they began dripping from the trees to the sidewalks surrounding her home. She lives on the second floor of a two family house. Since that time, she said, they have stead- ily increased in numbers, and she has been kept busy mornings Eweep- ing them off the rear porch. Last night, she said, she killed a number of them in Q bedroom occupied by her children.
 Similar Incident
 According to members of the fire marshal's staff, Q similar condition was reported last year by family residing on Lincoln street. Thous- ands of the caterpillars entered the house, which had to be thoroughly cleaned out under the supervision of an expert exterminator.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-06-17

Hundreds of caterpillars of an apparently uncommon species are invading the home of Mrs. Nellie Sharkey of fl North Leonard street today, while both Mrs. Sharkey and Mrs. Mary Brucevic, of 30 North Leonard street, owner of the house seek an effective formula for ridding the premises of ths pests. The ofiice of the fire marshal, which is called upon for tasks ranging in variety from the rescue of Q pet kitten to pulling marooned squatters of islands in the Naugatuck river, sug- gested that Mrs. Sharkey get in touch with 8 reliable exterminator.
 RepuIsed with Broom
 Called to the North Leonard street home this morning by Mrs. Brucevic members of the fire marshal's staff found caterpillars literally dripping from trees which closely surround the west side of the house. They were climbing up side walls, hanging from caves and rafters and drop ping occasionally on the rear veran- da, where Mrs. Sharkey stationed herself with Q broom to sweep them vigorously away.
 "They've even invaded the chil- dren's bedroom" she said, pointing to Q room which faced on the rear
