The H~UsBANDMAN is not a political jour-
nal and has no desire to enter into the par
tisan strife Of the present day, yet we are
free and independent in all things and,
while we shall leave politics, in the COM
mon acceptance Of the term, to those jour
nails which make it a specially, we. will not
remain silent upon matters appertaining to
the welfare of the people. We regard it as
the duty of every citizen to study the
science of government, both State and To-
cal, and we shall insist upon our readers
giving the matter their serious attention.
We would, therefore, urge the necessity of
nominating for office the very best men the
country affords. Favoriteism should be
laid aside, and no one nominated by either
party but the very best citizens-men of in
telligence, whokeep themselves posted npon
what is going on in the world; men of judg-
ment, promptness and decision of character,
and who are thoroughly qualified for the
positions for which they offer. 1A.

eral and Mechanical Association. hold their
exhibition next week, commencing upon
the 18th. This association contains a large
per cent. of farmers, and is located in one of
the best agricultural districts in all the great
Northwest, and there is but little doubt that
the display of farm products, vegetables and
fruit will exceed anything NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
in the Territory. There will also be some
tine stock on hand, and considerable racing.
III attendance promises to be good.
The grounds of this association are locat-
ed two and one-half miles south of Missou-
la, over a beautiful and level road that is
straight as an arrow. They are well laid
out and substantially improved, and provid-
eel with splendid water facilities,
This is their first exhibition, and we have
every reason to believe that the business
will be conducted in a manner highly salts,
factory to competitors, and we hope a gem
erous public win turn out and give the asso-
citation a fair trial.
Nothing is better calculated to stimulate
the industries of a country than these exhi-
billions, and let us hope that experience may
lead to a correction of any errors that may
exist at present, and that the institution
may grow into something OF lasting bene-
lit to the country.
