We should to^day have^no occasion to |M^int with pride to the^occurrences of the past week, and a^sense of justice dictates that we award^the credit to whom it is most justly^due.
To(b in i il BaL Meredith the people^of this Territory owe a debt of thanks^for the active part he has taken in this^enterprise. Not withstanding the fact^that he was in extreme ill health, and^I ^:-ily engaged with the laltors and du^teas' of the responMi-le position of Sur-^vi v. .r I law nil, yet he devoted a heart^ever beating responsive to the welfare,^prosperity and good of our Territory,^a mind rich with so'oer precepts, rare^e ^perience and valuable knowledge,^and Uaai^which was indeed valuable^^la this Fair, with which he was so^deeftjF identified.
Muchpraise is H:hly due to^the. euergy, the perseverance and^the disinterested lal^ors of James King,^Esep, Treasurer, who for so many week's^has devoted his vahiable tin..- to this^enterprise, and who has aided by rare^business qualifications, sound judgment^and an exteiisive acquaintance with the^MOUCM and needs of this Territory,^not only the growrti but the realization^ot this success. I^eeply identified with^th^- interest -1 Montana, he has earned^the gratitude ol our people for his exer^^tions to promote its prosperity.
\V.C t u i. t, Ban. who so ably filled^the responsible jx.^it'n^u of Secretary ot^tl i- Association, and has performed the^difficult duties o! the same with cour^^tesy^answ^ ring all demands upon his^time, patience and endurance with^promptitude and cheerfulness^has won^tor himsei: :t goid.eii reputation in his^ardi al and highly successful endeavors^to advance the success of our First Fair^of Montana.
Much1 ^ e success was due to the^labor.- ^* W jj. 'J ra\is. Emp,who biought^into r^ ^|uit-. ,.^u iiis extensive knowledge^aud varied e-vjverieuce in such matters,^and who lab -red with an energy worthy^ct the cause in which he was enlisted.

One of the most remark^able volcanic disturbances on record, is^the earthquake which in 1^'2'J ravaged^Chile, Bolivia and Peru, for a distance, in^a straight line, of over 1,200 miles, and^which raised the surface of the ^arth^between six and seven feet, orez an area^of more than 100,000 miles.
The^wickedest man^ went to deiiver^a lecture recently, and hia neighbor,^Kit Burns, thus describes the venture:^^Took three hundred and seventy-tour^dollars in New Haven, te he he-he,^aald^Kit to a well-dressed young man who^was leaning against the bar with Inith^elbows on the counter and a glass of^soda water in one hand and a cigar in^the other. (Kit is incapable of a broad^hearty, honest laugh, but throws down^his knife and fork, lays his forearm along^the counter, rests his head on it, and^breaks into a boisterous giggle, whenev^er one ot his retainers says something^that is intended to be remarkably witty )^^Who did r Why, John, d^n it,^went up thar with Slocum and Sterling]^charged a dollar a head, got the people^all in^te-he-he-he^somebody 's pocket^picked, big row^te-he-he^^and down^went Kit's head^^things smashed up,^all have to walk to Bridgeport to lake^the cars for home.
