sentation Of neat cattle was not very
large, but what Fas there was Of superb

animals in this line if We had space.
The show in horses was first class.
Of draft teams Mr.. G. Bucholz and
Mr.. E. L. Kingsiury exhibited each
span that were vefy equally matched in
strength and trailing and they did some
Of the best pulling that we ever before
witnessed. The test of strength Of
these teams in pulling load of stones
on sled over the bare ground created
considerable excitement. 1t was al
most impossible ID keep the crowd back
in their anxiety to see aud this excited
the horses somewhat, yet they did proud
ly.
The trotting and running races excl.
ted great deal of interest as did the
test Of trotting teams.
The fair was ina every way an honor
to the officers having it in charge, and
one the of the best.if not best ever held in
Goodhue County. Hans johnson, the
able Secretary, and Hon. I. G. Stearns,
the President, and in fact all concerned,
including the good people of Zumbrota,
are worthy of much praise: We regret
that ws-sFe-~san%ble this week to give
the list of premiums awagf1ed; we shall
publish it in full next feek. In the
mean time the Secrettry will accept
our sincere thanks for his promptness
in furnishing us with the same. We
shall also have more to say of the fair
next week it will do to talk about for
a month.

INDEPENDENCE OF THE FARMER
As we read in the Eastern papers Of
the great numbers who are being thrown
out of work by the stopping of manufac-
tories. or by the running Of them but a
portion Of the time, and of the great
numbers in the cities who are now out
of employment as is evidenced by the
scores Of applicants that answer every
advertisement for ! clerk, book-keeper
or any other kind Of a workers, we can
not help being forcibly impressed with
the independence Of the farmer as COM
pared with thousands in other occupa-
tions. The man who is dependent for
his bread and shelter for himself and
family, upon employment by others has
very uncertain dependence. A fnan-
cial panic, hard times, a cutting off of
the demand for some particular manu.
facture, fire that suddenly licks up
the wealth Of his. employer, or food
that sweeps it away, or the employers
sickness, OF death, or his interest or
his mere whim sets the operative, the
mechanic, the clerk, the book-keeper or
the agent adrift, often without means
for months support ahead. Hard
times come and then destitution, unless
relief come through the charity and
aims Of others. How different with the
farmer. to him seed-time and harvest
come as regular IS do the rounds of
the season.

And the Clerk, too always kind, winning
and captivating, keeps up well, and with
credit to himself, his part of the work.
The Judges candidacy for Congress has
been the subject of interest and conversa>

DEATH OF SIAMESE
TWINS.

The death of these noted persons took
place at their home near Mt. Airy, N. c.,
on the 18th inst. The following from
tho Mount Airy NiStor of the Path give
the particulars Of their death "On Sat,
urday morning, between four and 5
o'clock, Eng awoke and found that Chang
was dead, though yet warm. He imme-
diately complained of feeling very bad,
and requested those that were in the room
to rub his arms and legs; but soon after
he told themathat he was going 10 die
too. One died about two hours before
the other. Some of the physicians think
that had they been there at the time of
the death Of Chang they could have saved
the life of Eng, while other persons think
that the shock Eng received when he
found that Chang was dead, caused him
to expire also, as they were told several
years ago, by an eminent surgeon, while
in the city of Paris, France, that one
would not survive the other moro than
forty minutes. On Sunday a large nuns
Der of persons, from every direction of
the country, visited the residence to see
them for the last time. They have not
been buried. DR.. Joseph Hollinsworth
had a tin coffin made, which they have been
but packed in ice, and sealed air tight,
and laid in tho cellar. Several of their
children are absent from home. 1t is
generally understood that when they hear
from those that are absent, with their con-
sent, the Twins will be preserved. They
were born in Siam, China, and wer e
about Go years old at the time of their
deaths.

Each has an individuality of its own.
Why then do men and women try so hard

after the same model? Why strain every
nerve to dress, act and think alike, to ape
one after another, as if all wished to be
cast iuto one mould, and Individuality
were of no manner account? What are
ones own reason, intellect and mind fol-. if
they be not for the purpose of seeking out
truth and reasoning and thinking upon all
