1y to attract about them the same
class of questionable characters who
now flock together to drain the pock-
cts of unsophistieated chance acquain-
tances.
We have one other suggestion to
make with reference to the manage
ment of these country fairs: a,more
judicioHs use, aslitlseems to us, might
be made of the bestowal of premiums.
Great incentives are now held out for
the developement of some one quality
in animals and vegetables. In pigs it
is weight, in pumpkins, it is size
Here and there a society is wise enough
to award prizes for ''general excel
lence," but these are usually, put in
such a position ON theelist that they
excite little competition. The reverse
might better be the case. Both pigs
and pumpkins are, or should be, grown
with view to human consumption,
and not merely to the winning of sill
yer cups and teaspoons. A hog that
has been fed on salt alone for three
days and then allowed to drink its fill
of water, will perhaps weigh more than
one that has been carefully fattened on
the best corn, but it will not make so
much good pork; and a pumpkin will
often increase its girth by dissipating
its sweetness. Yet the heavy hog and
the enormous pumpkin usually take
the first prizes, to the detriment of
other and really better specimens.
The tests, then, applied to all pro-
ducts exhibited at agricultural fairs
ought to be their, adaptation to a ,legi-
innate end. No horses belong there
which will not fulfill the daily require
ments Of the farm; no cattle which are
not valuable for field labor or the dai-
~; no swine or vegetable not well fit
ted for table use. Let this fact be ap-
preciated by those persons who control
the annual exhibitions, and who have
nothing but the best interests of their
clients at heart, and we shall see a day
of better things. The country fair
will then be to its projectors a source
not only Of more just pride for the mo-
ment, but of greater ultimate pecuni-
ary gain. twill be far in advance of its
remote predecessors in everything af-
fecting energy and enterprise, and will
surpass those of later date in real ex-
cellence of purpose.-N. Y. Ev. Post.

AGRICULTURAL. FAIRS.

The newspaper press throughout
the country is beginning to teem with
advertisements and descriptions of
those great occasions of the farmers
year, the agricultural fairs. There
was time when such gatherings at
tracted little attention outside of the
small circle directly concerned in the
success of each; but that was before
farmers as a class had received their
1ull recognition as a power in the land.
VI late, the men of the plough and
sickle have made their influence felt in
both social and political life; and the
result has been a steadily increasing
respect In the community at large for
themselves as men, and for all that
pertains to their vocation. The an
nual fair has become much grander
institution than ever before. Whereas
1t was formerly product of the coun-
tvs industry, it now attaches itself to
almost every full-growa township
The big pumpkins have grown bigger,
the worsted work more marvellous of
design, and the pigs and cattle of more
astounding weight, while the horses
exhibited are mostly those which have
excelled the three minute gait. Ma
irons and maidens are no longer con-
tent to wear the garments of their an
cestors, but feel certain pride in fol-
lowing the varying fashions of the day.
While, however, these signs are gem
orally of good import, word of warns
ing may not be out of place. When
the spirit of advance seizes upon any
class of people, there is always danger
OF It's carrying them too far. 1t is just
as well to keep the old landmarks in
sight, no matter how much one broad
ems his sphere of action; and there
seems to be tendency just now among
the patrons of the country fair to ele-
vate a single branch Of their exhibi-
ton to such prominence as to cast a
shadow on others more Important
For example, what was once the arena
for an honest competition between the
producers of raw material for food and
clothing threatens to degenerate into
a field for the dubious enterprise of
horse-jockeys. Even the staid old
Puritan of New England, who, quar-
ter OF a century ago, condemned the
race-course as one of the paths to per-
dition, does not now find it burden
to his conscience to witness s.trial of
blooded-stock." The flesh recognises
a distinction where the spirit knows
there is no difference. 1t is the old
case over again of the total-abstainer,
who would not drink cider, but did
not object to mug of apple-juice.-
Let us have things in their right plac-
es and called by their right names
The slender-limbed, acknowledgements
lied queen of the turf is not the animal
the farmer wants to draw his wagon or
pull his plough. She would be as
little in her element On the farm as
the sulky she trots before. A fair Ca
pacity of speed is of course, desirable
in any horse, used for any purpose !;
but three-minute gait and plenty of
wind will answer all the requirements
of the strictly domestic animal. If
track on the fair ground were used

COMPLEMENTARY.

The election of Donnelly to the State Senate
in Dakota county, is 3 glorious personal tri-
~umph. Whatever faults he may possess, land
we ali have them) it is not the province of the
editor of the Herald in making this notice of
his election to recapitulate them.
MIR. Seagrsve Smith was Mr.. Donnelly's op
ponent in the Democratic convention OF that
county, and was fairly and squarely defeated in
the convention, and feeling chagrined at his
defeat in the convention, he bolts 1t and pre-
sented himself before the people for State Sem
ator against the candidate who was nominated
at the convention. And we are heartily glad
that "Seagrave" is defeated by Donnelly under
such circumstances. Winons Herald.
We are obliged to friend Whipple for
his kind words. But he has fallen into
an error in one respect. We are in
formed that a week before the Demo-
cratic-Republican convention was held
prominent Republicans declared that
Seagrave Smith would run anyhow,
whether he was nominated by any con-
vention or not. 1t was ..put up job, "
the result OF conspiracy running
through months. but so suddenly sprung
upon US that we had only three or four
days in which to canvass the county.
We are glad to see that leading Dem
oeratic papers are putting the stamp Of
disapprobation on Smith. He is unwor.
thy the respect of any decent man of any
party. God Almighty cast him in very
low mould-and we hope He broke the
mould in disgust when he saw what He
had made.

UNFAIR.

Matthias Siebenaler. one OF the candi-
dates for the House on the Democratic
Republican ticket in Dakota county, re-
csived l0l votes in Empire township,
which gave him considerable ajority,
and he was understood to be elected.
But To-! when the returns from Empire
came in there were the l0l votes but, by
the omission of the clerks, no name was
appended to them, although, it was evil
dent from the context that they belonged
to Mr. Siebenaler. But the canvassing g
board awarded the certificate to Chas.
A. Baker, Esq, of Hastings. II Mr..
Baker persists in taking his seat, the
House will, of course. US soon AS the
facts appear, be compelled to unseat
him. for district cannot be deprived OF
its chosen representation through any
omission of the officers of election to per-
form theirkduty il such were the case it
would be IN the power OF election officers
to defeat the will OF the people at any
time.
We hope Mr.. Baker. who is personally
clever gentleman, will step aside and
give Mr.. Seibenaler his seat. 1t would
be gracious act that would certainly be
remembered hereafter by the people OF

vocate them in and out of season, we
shall devote ourself hereafter more to
the ANTI I-MONoPOLIsT and less to poll
tics. We have tried to unite all the ele-
ments of opposition in q harmonious eff
fort TO drive the Republican party out of
power, believing that to be the first step
toUard reform; and as reward we have
incurred the hatred of the Democratic
leaders on the oneside and the suspicion
of the Anti-Monopolists on the other ;
the first denouncing us tor trying to
make them something less than Demo-
Gratis the latter for trying to make them
something more than Anti-Monopolists.
We earntly and solmnly desire reform.
and we earnestly and solemnly believe
that Grantism is a threat against the
perpetuity of free institutions; but be-
tween the Democratic love of a name and
the Anti Monopoly horror of name, we
see no hope until the expressions Of the
Republican party drive the people into
an overwhelming political revolution.
We fold our arms and wait patiently for
that day. In the meantime we shall
continue to publish the ANTI MoNOPO.
