In view of the fact that several contradictory reports have been published in eastern papers regarding the destitution in North Dakota I beg leave tosend you afew facts from this county. Our population is between four and In 1888 our crops were de- stroyed by frost in August. In 1839 they were five thousand. destroyed by drouth, the rainfall for 1889 being a fraction over three inches or about fourteen inches below the average, The wheat crop marketed in 1889 was upwards of 600,000 bushels less than the amount marketed in 1887. Our committee was formed eariy in the season, when the crop failure was inevitable. Since then we have given reliefin some shape or other to some 1,200 individuals, The public to our have been most generous in replyii appeals for aid, and contributions of money, food, fuel and clothing have been coming from all sides, As, bi er, thei ° are several families who will have tobe sup- im money for the purchase of flour and fuel will ported until next harvest, contributions be most acceptable. While, as the above facts show there is considerable destitution, there has been no suffering. and all reports about deaths from cold and starvation are untrue, ‘The state authorities are unable to relieve all cases of destitution and also provide seed wheat, of which about 40,000 bushels will be required for this county alone; but they are going to do as much as lies within their power.

The same difticuity confronted me this season, but, determined not to disappoint the admirers ofthe Boston Ideals in Washington a second time, Ihave made arrangements with the di- rectors of the new Linco!n music hall, by which the company will appear at that house during the week of January 6, ina selected repertory of grand opera in English, to be presented with the same list of principals, the same ensemble | and the same complete orchestra which enabled ompany to win from the press of Chicago, than eight weeks ago, such encomiums a8 have not since been bestowed on any opera company whatsoever, not excepting the famous organization now performing there under the management of Mr. Heury E.
