grace. The men at Washington, whose un-
fitness for their position has recently been
so forcibly illustrated, to the sorrow OF the
people, add no dignity to their own names
and afford no honor to their constituents.
They simply illustrate their own unseemli-
ness in the Capitol, like dirty rats in splen-
did paror. Nor does the country feel a
whit like honoring the one more than the
other-the Legislators or the voters that
put them there. ON both hands, the morti-
fication of thinking men at the humiliating
spectacle is most painful. So then, in cast

the first and chief inquiry be for fitness, not
cupidity, for aplace capacity, not. andacity;
honesty, not snbseryiency; brain, not

Where this is the case it matters not
which ticket is elected. the interests of the

by education, by experience, ability, tact

personal characteristics that preclude the
highest degree Of favoritism with the mass

fail of the prominent exhibition of those

AS the time,for he'holding of the Terri
torial fair draws nigh, the question of atten-
dance becomes more important. 1t is the
gathering OF the products of the field and
pasture that makes good fair. This year
our farmers have been blessed with good
crops, and our wool and stock men with
fair prices and liberal sales, and the coun-
try is in good condition both tor large
turnout of people, and lively competition
sbetWeen farmers and stock men for premi-
ums. The fair affords good opportunity
for the comparison of products from our
several valleys, the comparison of varieties,
and Of products grown at different attitudes,
also of stock from the herds of different
sections. Experience has taught the Fair
association much in regard to management,
and the indications are that the coming ex-
hibition will be better conducted than exhi-
bitions heretofore. The managers have
learned that the farmers are II very necessa-
ry element o.its success, and have offered
them more encouragement by an advance
in the premiums tor stock aud farm pro-
duets. This ADVANCE is far from being what
it should, and what Melaye desired to see
but it is a step in the ht.direction, and
deserves to be met with alliberal response
on the part of farmers. Df late. the associ-
citation has decided TO gisea special induce
ment to dairymen, by Offering an extra pre-
MUM Of $40 for the best article of packed
,butter, and SIS for the second best. Our
dairy interests comprise one of our most
important industries. and requires more skill
than most other branches of hasbandry,
nandin view OF the fact, that but few have
yet succeeded i'll making good butter, any
thing calculated TO induce our farmers to
study the art properly cannot be too highly
commended.
