Spotted Tail seems determined not to
sell his birthright for mess of potash, as
the old woman said, to judge from his de-
mand Of six million dollars for the Black
Hills. There was lively touch of satire
in his assertion that he would not expect
to get moro than half that amount after
the agents had done their stealing. Be-
tween his rather extravagant demands
and the bellicose attitude of Sitting Bull
aud the young Cheyenne who threatens to
kill all the Commissioners, there ought to
be some middle ground which the Gov
eminent can honorably take. Let lis have
a fair bargain fairly carried out, and the
country will for once be satisfied with
the management of the Indian Depart
ment.

An Enjoyable Fishing Excursion.
Mr.. Editor

Mr.. Editor -
A short time since had the pleasure,
in company with friend, of taking a
fishing excursion to MillsfiCld Pond, in
our good county ofCoos. Starting from
Lancaster in the morning with team
carrying our luggage, we arrived at Mr..
Thos. Wentworth's, in Drummer, in the
afternoon, having sufficient time to fish
in the Androscoggin for pickerel before
nightfall. The farm Of Mr.. Wentworth
is fine one, on the Androscoggin, which
here is beautiful river, carrying as great
body of water as the Connecticut at Ian
caster. Here, too, we have Il fine view,
although distant, of the White Mountains,
and the scenery all about is diversified
and beautiful. Mr.. Wentworth is an
original character. When young man
he event down to the sea in ships and
did business on the great waters" but
about thirty years ago he left the sea and
came, as he says, into the "wild interior"
and settled and now owns six hundred
acres of land in one body. Five miles
from Wentworths is the first Millstield
Pond. 1t is pretty hard footing it there,
but any one intent upon sport soon gets
over the distance, and then comes the
fun. A good camp-occupicd when we
reached it by two or three fishermen
stands short distance from the margin
of the pond, and if the sportsman brings
good supply of salt pork, bread, hard
tack, tea, he can have the finest
trout in the world for the taking-he can
live like king. The trout arc not large,
rarely taking one that weighs over q
pound and few Of that size, but they are
the most delicious / ever caught. People
that never ate trout soon after they were
taken know nothing of the delicacy OF
favor they then have. Keeping and lug
ging nearly destroys that peculiar rich
ness DR. which trout are remarkable, so
that when they arrive at the table one
half the goodness is gone.
DR.. Elmendorf, Of Brooklyn, n. Y, with
his guide, Sam Gerrish, also another par
ty from New York, came into camp on
the second day after our arrival, so that
times were lively. 1t is Il glorious place
to 90 to have sport, and any one who en-
joys camping out and catching trout can
have his fill of enjoyment. There are
| in, NTi1lcRnIl al "a, fpI
trout-fshing, and when our vacation
comes around again, we have solemnly
romised-nothing occurring to prevent
to pay them another visit and capture
more of those speckled beauties. And
let me say to any one going to these ponds
who needs good, faithful, competent
gaide, that they can probably secure the
services of one Of Mr.. Wentworth's sons

THE RIGHT SPIRIT.-A gentleman writ
ing the Secretary of the Coos and Essex
Agricultural Society for the purpose OF
entering stock for the coming Fair, closes
as follows -"I don't care for the premi.
ums, but it is our duty to bring together,
If possible, the very best stock and speci-
mems of crops, and compare them, each
with the others, and get up an excitement
in farming such as our grandfathers acted
under, when, in those counties they really
raised better cattle on an average than
are raised there now"

The New England Fair

The twelfth annual show of the n.
E. Agricultural society, opened at
Manchester, N. H., on Tuesday of
last week, under most favorable GU
spices. All classes of industry, skill
and production were we'll represented
from different parts of New England,
and even a new and curious depart
ment for the exhi bition Of dogs was
well supplied with candidates for
prcmium. The attendance was not
large, but good for the first day. In
the evening farmers meeting, at
which Col. Needham presided, was
well attended. On the second day
the crowd began to pour in, and the
grand festival to be entered upon in
good earnest. The principal build
ings of the city were dressed in gala
style, and the farmers and citizens
from the neighooring towns 1ocked
to the sight in great numbers. An
interesting and valuable opening adj
dress was delivered by DR.. Geo. B.
Loring of Massachusetts, which was
received with much APPLAUSE. The
great day however, of the show was
Friday, when immense crowds of
people we're present to see and to

Mr.. E1it0r.-


notice that the officers ofthe Caledonia
County Fair have changed their time of
holding it to the same days as the Coos
and Essex Fair. We like fair play and to
do the thing that's right, and especially,
as we have agreed. The vote Of the Coos
and Essex Counties Society was to hold
their Fair at time when 1t would not in-
terfere with the Caledonia County Fair,
and accordingly the officers Of tie Society
waited till the time was fixed by the Gale
donna Society for holding theirs. But
for reasons unknown to us they after
wards changed their time to the same
days as ours. We do not wish to canvass
the motives of any men or set of men,
but protest against such shutting
about to answer selfish or pc
cuniary ends. 1t is not fair. 1t is not
manly. 1t is not right. 1t is well known
to the Caledonia people that very many
from Coos and Essex counties attend their
fair yearly and take pleasure and pride in
the yearly success of that Society. But
it remains to be seen how largely they
will win by such dishonorable course, as
the first arrangement was fully under
stood and agreed upon by the officers of
both Societies. o.

Governor Dingley of Maine on the
LIQUOR Law.

Neal Dow sends to the London Times
letter from Gov. Dingley regarding the
operation OF the Maine law, which he
asks to be printed, as many reports have
been circulated in England from sources
supposed to be trustworthy, to the effect
that the operation of the law has not been
beneficial to the State. Governor Ding
ley's letter is as follows:
AUGUSTA, Me-, August 20, 1875.
DEAR SIR am in receipt of your note
Of inquiry as to the working Of the laws
of this State prohibiting drinking houses
and tipping shops, otherwise known as
the "Maine Law" In reply permit me to
say that the influence of the law has been
salutary, not only in mitigating the dram
shop evil, but also in promoting good or
der, thrift and sobriety. Since the close
of the war for the maintenance of the
Union, during which there was great lax
lty in the enforcement of these laws, in
consequence Of the engrossmcnt of the
public mind in the great struggle for ma
tional existence, the execution Of the So
called "Maine Law" has improved from
year to year, until dram shops have, prac-
llNtliJ1 SCHoNd w SAlOb III viz IuIui POI-
tions of the State, liz which are found
more than threc-fourths of our popula-
ton; and even in the cities, where it is
always more difficult to restrain vice and
crime, open tippling-shops have been
largely reduced and in many almost
entirely closed. The enforcement of the
law is already as efficient and general as is
that of many other laws the value of
which is unquestioned, as, for example,
the laws prohibiting gambling-houses,
brothels and obscene publications; and
every year witnesses an improvement in
its execution So general has become the
conviction that the policy of prohibiting
dram shops, on the whole, restraints the
evils Of the liquor traffic UNNECESSARILY
beyond any conceivable system of license
or regulation, that all organized opposi-
to the Maine Law has ceased in this State
and, az least twe-thirds of our people
give it hearty support.
Very truly yours,
NELSON DINGLEY, JR., Gov. of Maine
Hon. Neal Dow.
