THE FAIR COMMISSIONER. The appointment by Governor Sloan of J. C Adams to be a member of ..he territorial fair commission was ma. in tesponse to the request of those who believe that a territorial fair is an institution which should be maintained. Almost every resi dent of the territory believes that. There are perhaps other citizens who could fill this place as well as Mr. Adams but it is the common un derstanding that the success of the fairs we have had has been in a large measure due to the unremitting and energetic efforts of Mr. Adams, but for whom there would probably have been no territorial fair. It is certain that there would have been none at the time the fair was instituted. The idea originated with him, was pushed through the legisla ture and through the office of the governor in spite of apparently in surmountable obstacles. Mr. Adams has been subject to a great deal of criticism. This, how ever, has not come from those who were associated with him in the fair management or those who were in- i terested in the success of the fair. Nor has it been contended by any of; his critics that he had been negli gent of the performance of any of his official duties. The action of Governor Sloan in reinstating Mr. Adams insures the fifth territorial fair, which we believe will be bigger and greater than the best of its predecessors. THE RAVENS OTHERWISE ENGAGED. A venerable fanatic by the nam-s ; of E. M. Brock of the Zion City, Chi- I cago, community, perhaps aspirins to be Elijah IV, V, or VI, recently spent I four days under a tree in a drenching rain waiting for the ravens to come j and feed him as they did Elijah the First At last he consented to take shel ter and at last accounts he was un certain as to what form his ailment would assume rheumatism or pneu- i monia. i Thus is illustrated again the queer freaks which an overheated enthu- j slasm develops. But all the fanatics are not religious fanatics. The anti- i religionists go just as crazy and still Just as crazy go those who consider religion from neither side. Representative Hollingsworth ought not to feel that way toward the southern newspapers which have at tacked him on account of his be lated hostility toward the late Jeffer son Davis. The Jokes in which the northern newspapers have indulged at his expense are much more harm ful to him than the southern ana thema. It was pretty tough on Mrs. Peck, b. temperance advocate, to ornament a brand of whisky with her smiling photograph as if she were lending willing endorsement of the ruin and death contained therein. The democratic congressmen have no hope of getting an income tax. In fact, they do not want one so much as they do an issue which may be put in pickle for the next campaign. Some careless person has "went" and stepped on Wags' tail again. . , ... f;i3c?z . PLEASED WITH THE VALLEY W. W. P. McConnell of Mankato. Minn., has been visiting this valley ' for a few days and expects to be here a day or two longer. Mr. McConnell 1 canle expressly to see the country, caring little for the town, and has spent most of his time in the coun try. He is enthusiastic over the val ley and is a man whose enthusiasm Is well worth while. Mr. McConnell was i formerly the state dairy and food commissioner for Minnesota, and is now connected with the Farmer's State Institute in an official capacity. He says the only trouble with the valley is that not enough people know about it and the only trouble i with the newspapers is that they do not print enough "bucolic" matter. telling their eastern readers all about it, though he admits that he has seen a lot in The Republican and that it was through reading The Republican that induced him to come here. He says the sugar beets look fine. They raise a great many beets in his coun try and are pleased when they get ten and twelve per cent saccharine mat ter and fifteen tons to the acre. He! says he has seen lots of beets here that he is certain will go eighteen tons and as to their sugar content all that he has learned Is most gratifying. Some of the beets show the need of water, but altogether he considers the crop an excellent one, esiecially when it is remembered that the industry is new and most of the farmers are ex perimenting rather than anything else. The alfalfa fields he says are more than a surprise to him. He never saw anything to equal them in the alfalfa line. And so it goes down the whole list of farm products. He says the newspapers and literature sent out are all modest in their statements compared to that sent from other places with less to talk about. His one comment was the slipshod culti vation of much of the land. Half of it if well tilled he believes could be made to produce a great deal more than it does and some of it possibly would double the product if it were farmed as vigorously as in the east. A MORNING EARTHQUAKE Discovered by Observatory tenham Mass. at Chel- Washington, May 17.
