Tbc Territorial Fair.
On Monday next tlie Fourth Annual Exhi
bition of the M. A. M. and M. Association
commences, and from present indications
promises to be on unprecedented success.
Xhe < fforts of the officers liave been nnremit
timr, and if properly seconded b} r farmers,
stock-growers, miners and all others interest
ed, the exhibition will undoubtedly be one of
the best ever held in Montana. The Hon
j). S. W ade, it will be remembered, delivers
the annual address. In refereing to the Fair
the Moutanian says: "We understand the
Association have exerted themselves more
than usual this season for the purpose of
making the coming fair mor<^ attractive than
any former one. Much work and money has
been expended on the grounds, and the race
track has been greatly improved. Several
fast horses have been brought to the Terri
tory especially to compete for the purses and
premiums offered, and stock men generally
are preparing their choice animals for exhi
bition. All who can should attend the Iiele
11 a Fair. Great preparation is being made
in Helena to accommodate guests, and their
comfort and amusement will command the
attention of the citizens of that live town.
The premiums and purses offered are magni
ficent, so much so that there is uo fear but
competition will be interesting.
Tin* It I if Hole Silver mines»
Th v Montauian, in referring to these mines,
says : We are informed by Mr. Gaffney that
the general impression is that the silver mines
lately discovered on Willow creek, a tribu
tary of the Big Hole river, are the richest
and most extensive yet discovered in Mon
tana. There are already about one hundred
men in the camp, and many are taking out
rock for shipment. The ledges are very large
and very rich, several assaying up into the
thousands per ton. The character of the
rock is black sulphurets and horn blende.
The ledges are well defined and improve on
being explored. The Trapper lode, we un
derstand, is thought to be the best yet dis
covered, the owners of which, it is said, have
a sure fortune in sight. All the Bannack
quartz men arc in camp and the excitement
is represented as being intense. Mr. Arm
strong, a Utah mining expert, is prospecting
in this camp, and says the indications for
permanent ledges and rich ores are better
Ilian he ever saw in Utah. Mr. A. is devel
oping a mine and has erected sheds under
which he is storing his ore, which he will
not ship until next season. Mr. Gaffney has
two men prospecting in the camp who have
succeeded in finding several good veins.
Taking the glowing accounts from this new
silverado and the reliability and judgment of
the authority from whomNve get it (several
of the best miners in the Territoiy have been
and are there) we are convinced that the
camp promises more than any one in the
Territory.

The Bea.utiful Snow
Is always welcome when it comes at a sea
sonable time, but at a time \vhen the genial
influences of Indian Summer are anticipated,
it is not at all disirable. However, it appears
to be an annual visitation, for just one year
ago to-day—the commencement of the Third
Annual Fair—we were visited by quite a
heavy snow-storm, which continued for two
or three days, and compelled a postpone
ment of the exhibition. This year the Fair
has been put off one week late in order to
avoid the equinoctial storm, and the oificers
have thus acted wisely. We are now almost
certain to have fair wether next week, which
will insure a large attendance and a success
ful exhibition.
Two Crop» in One Season.
The Monlanian. of the 18th inst. has the
following: While at York, Stinkingwater
valley, last week, we were shown by Mr.
Alex. Metzel the ground and the two crops
of barley that had been harvested from it this
season. Both orops were good. After the
first crop was cut the ground was irrigated,
and the second crop came up voluntarily.
Some of the Eastern, people doubt our being
able to raise one good crop of grain in Mon
tana; what will they say to taking two crops
from the same land and either, double the
yield that can he produced east of the Mis
souri river.

A race was made yesterday between
"Walking John" ana "31idnig.it Belle," to
run a half mile for one thousand dollars a
side. From the reputation of the horse this
will be decidedly the most interesting run
ning race that has ever taken place in Utah.
"Walking John" has beaten everything he
has ever entered against for one quarter of a
mile, and at six hundred yards. We do not
know that he has ever run a half mile, but
his owner evidently knows what he is about.
The "Belle" is a thoroughbred Kentucky
mare, and has run both mile and half-mile
heats, and according to what is said of her,
has made a half mile in extraordinary time.
The race is to be rum om straight tracks, fifteen
feet apart, and will come off in thirty-five
days from the day it was made. — Salt Lake

The Equinox.
That's what we have a rude touch of to
day. The term signifies, literally, the time
when the sun enters one of the equinoctial
points, making the day and night of equal
length. The sun enters the first point of
Aries about the 21st of March, and the first
point of Libra about the 23d of September.
Storms of wind, rain, snow, sleet, or bail,
(or all of these together) usually follow, last
ing one, two, or more days. These are called
the vernal and autumnal equinoxes. Rain
and snow, accompanied b} r some wind, visited
us in this locality early this morning, and the
rain and snow part stayed with us during the
best part «f the day. The sun made the point
of Libra "on time"—the same day and hour
this year as last. It can now be depended
upon with reasonable certainty that the equi
nox "spell of weather" will be ended, and
propitious days will follow" for.the Territorial
Fair. Let us all prepare to enjoy it.
The (»real Temple.
The Salt Lake News has the following in
reference to the Mormon Temple which has
been in process of construction since 1856 :
The work of laying the» rock on the wall of
the Temple goes steadily on. The three ad
ditional courses are being put on without
moving the position of the derricks, instead
of laying one course at a time. Those addi
tional three courses complete the basement
story of the building, taking the walls above
the arches of the lowest tier of windows, and
about eight feet above the base rock. Four
of the arches of the windows will be turned
by this evening, near the south-west corner
of the building, and it was expected that the
three additional courses of rock would also
be laid for a considerable distance along that
portion of the structure." The walls there are
now sufficiently high to give some idea of the
magnificent character of the work. It will
be one of the most solid and altogether one
of the finest pieces of masonry in the world.

We have before us a circular of the firm
of Bates & Locke, advertising agents of
New York, giving the names, date of estab
lishment, and circulation of one hundred of
the leading newspapers in the United States
with which the agency has business relations
The firm take the very sensible position that
the best is the cheapest. They say : " The
circulation of our one hundred select list
each month is 33,330,000. Giving the cheap
lists 1,000 each, or 4,000 a month, it would
require 8,325 to equal it. Ten lines in our
list a month costs at publisher's rates say
$1,800. To use the 8,325 papers necessary
to get the same circulation would cost at the
lowest rates given for any list $3,240." This
is so clear a demonstration of the point
involved that a business man will see it at
once; but the circular continues as follows:
"Take a list composed of say 2,000 papers,
and allow them 1,000 circulation each ; the
monthly circulation would be 8,000,000. The
best that can be done in such a list for an
inch one month, is say $800. Now our list
of one hundred newspapers gives over four
times the circulation for a little more than
twice the cost of the cheapest of the cheap
lists." Messrs. Bates & Locke are men who
fully understand their business, and adver
tisers will find it to their advantage to consult
them.

exceed $15, and it should be done at once.

Field Photography.
No department in the arts and sciences has
probably made greater strides or achieved
more success in the last decade than photo
graphy. All over the world discoveries and
improvements in the processes of photogra
phj" have advanced this important art to a
degree approaching perfection. In the United
States as in Europe, painting, engraving,
lithograph} r , sculpture, etc., have been ma
terially bettered in the immediate past, but
none of these have paced to the front more
rapidly or uniformly than this art. It was
not long since that a publication of the Na
tional Photographic Association in the East
spoke in highly eulogistic terms of the work
of an artist of this city, Mr. E. H. Train,
whose skill and cleverness in his profession
were stated to compare favorably with the
best artists of the country. There is little
question that Mr. Train has accomplished
wonders in picture taking, not only in gallery
but in field work, and that to-day he stands
among the first of the photographers of the
west. Recently he has devoted considerable
attention to the printing of views of Wonder
derland, from negatives taken in the geyser,
lake, falls and other regions of the National
Park. These views are very fine, and the
workmanship shows him to be an adept in
their execution. In addition to this, Mr.
Train, when enabled to leave his gallery, has
been busied in outdoor photography through
the city. Within the past fortnight he has
thus secured negatives of a number of the
finest residences in the city, and struck off
some exceedingly excellent and truthlnl pic
tures therefrom. The latest of these are sev
eral faithful portraitures of the handsome
residences on Fifth avenue, Rodney, Ewing,
and other streets. At the present rate Mr.
Train will soon have a cabinet of this de
scription scarcely second in importance to
his portrait collection, which has attracted
so much of the public attention. Call and
see Mr. Train at his gallery on Main street.
Death of Charles St. Claire»
We regret to learn of the death of this
gentleman, which event took; place at Vir
ginia City on Saturday evening last. The
immediate cause was heart disease. Mr. St.
Claire was an Englishman by birth, and came
from St. Paul, Minnesota, to Montana on the
:aking out of the first gold excitement,
and has always since been engaged more or
less in mining. Wherever known, he has al
ways been held in high esteem by bis friends
and acquaintances. At the time of his de
cease be was Deputy U. S. Marshal. In his
death the Territory has lost one of its best
citizens.
Operations Suspended.
We learn that in consequence of the great
financial crisis in the east, JVlr. Boyd, re
ceived on Sunday last, a dispatch from the
President of his company in New York, to
suspend all operations for the present. In
accordance with these instructions, Mr. Boyd
yesterday discharged tenjor twelve men who
had for some time past been employed in de
veloping their silver mines on Upper Ten
Mile. We hope the suspension may be only
temporary, and that Mr. Boyd will soon be
enabled to resume operations.
