Destitution and crops ruined by grasshoppers in Minnesota
The text describes widespread devastation from grasshoppers across Minnesota territories near the Mississippi and above Anoka, leaving farmers destitute. It cites reports denied by papers, then confirms severe shortages, with elderly residents from Wright and Monticello counties stating one in ten families has enough food, and many farms lacking means to plant next spring. It notes potential relief needs and criticizes neglect amid abundance in the Territory. It mentions riots in New York, political tensions, and various other brief items.
