The season when country fairs

Trey are powe- in the land new

are Infinitely lore wide spread
and pot mt than anything which a
busy city can organize or set afoat
in this line. For months before
the country fair opens it's white
washed gates, the village maiden
and country lass is alike busy in
needle wo.k and later the fair con-
testant for the prize offered for
the best loaf of bread and the best
jar of preserves or tumbler of iel-

secure the coveted prize, or at
least honorable mention. A
country fair is talked of for months

ter it has closed. It affords the
agricultural implement maker, the
organ, e1d tree, and patent gate

tunity of the year for getting
firm foothold in the country round

food for thought, for interchange

JUDGE BLACKS ANSWER.

The Philadelphia Press, of Mon
day, contained a seven column arti-
Gle from the pen of Col. Frank A.
Burr. of this town, now on the staff
of that paper, giving Judge Blacks
answer to the criticisms of jefferson
Davis. Col. Burr was an intimate
and personal friend Of Judge Black
and to that fact, is due this reyela,
ton, coming, as it does, as the re-
suit of an interview with the Judge
just before disease grasped him and
in advance of the setting of the sun
over the life of the great jurist and
statesman, 1t is fully authentic in
every particular and as crushing as
fate in weight of facts and history
upon the misrepresentation of JEFF
ferson Davis. 1t lessons the shad,
ows that hang over Buchanan's pa
triotism, albeit, his convictions
were only maintained by the sturdy
legal vigor and moral courage Of
Black and Stanton. 1t unmasks
fully and completely the deceitful
Subtelty of Davis, who whilst che
talked peace planned war; Col
Burr's journalistic industry and
ready pen are to be commended for
preserving so valuable a contribu-
tion to history from the mouth of
so eminent member of the Cabinet
and so able an actor in the terrible
crisis of 1860.

From the Winchester Times:

From the Winchester Times:
Last Wednesday morning about
81 O'Clock the splendid barn and
cattle shed on the Jacobs farm
near Keckley's mill, on the Valley
turnpike, one and half miles from
Winchester, were discovered to be
on fire. Mr., Lewis Jacobs bad fin
ished threshing his wheat the Friday
previously and had it stored in the
barn. 1t amounted to 1000 bushels
and only about $50 bushels of it
were saved in a condition fit for
use. The barn also contained 90
tons of hay which was totally con,
sumed, together with many agricul,
TARA implements, two cows, forgot,
ten in the excitement, and num-
Der of pigs. Mr.. Jacobs had been in
the barn half hour before as were
also several OF his hands, and no
signs of a fire were then noticed
The loss will aggregate $500. Half
of this is covered by insurance in
the Loudoun Mutual.
e. l.. Hodgson, auctioneer, sold on
Monday last the farm of Geo. l.. Ste.
phens, about 3 miles east of Steph-
ems City, containing 2072 acres to
Mr.. Albert Clark, for $3.50 per acre.
Mr.. John Wanamaker has added
one more to his many benefact-

respect or sensitiveness would not
continue In the effort to palm him
self off as their special advocate.
Add this especially when there are no
complaints from the tar payers them
selves. We do not believe that this
fellow can get single intelligent
tax payer in Martinsburg to say that
the finances of the corporation have
not been economically and success
fully managed in the past five years.
Then what is he "chinning" about ?
His mission here seems to be for the
purpose Of stirring up strife and i'll
feeling in the community, by per.
sistent and continued misrepresen-
tation and falsehood. We ask, is
there or has there been any occasion
for this ?
The same system Of poke-your-
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. is be-
ing carried out by this Cheap John
concern in soliciting patronage. A
short time since one of them stepped
into business place and seeing
some bills printed by the INDEPEN-
DENT, enquired of the proprietor
what he paid for them by the thous,
and, and offered to print them for
rs cents less. That may be consid-
cred an honorable way of conduct
ing business where he came from
but it is not so considered here.
On another occasion he went into
business place and asked the pro-
prietor for an advertisement, saying
he had given them several "puffs''
in his paper. The proprietor told
him he was not doing much adver,
Using but what he was doing was
being done by the INDEPENDENT.
The young man turning on his heel
said, "All right, the Herald can do
you great deal Of injury" Wheth-
er the young mans sudden leaving
or the perception of the merchant,
sizing up the young mans mental
calibre, prevented prompt applica-
tion of the business end of boot
for such a ridiculous threat, is not
known, but to one or the other of
these causes the young man must be
thankful for the peaceful and harm
less continuance of his sedentary
duties.
We mention these matters only
because the Herald has chosen to
poke it's nose into our business af-
fairs. We are always ready to meet
honorable competition, and meet it
fairly. The work that we do must
stand on its merits. If any one else
can furnish the same class of work
and the same material, for a lower
price than we charge, we Shall not
threaten them with the influence of
the INDEPENDENT if they take it
somewhere else.

The total number of immigrants
this year is not expected to exceed
$4,000, which will be 100000 fewer
than the total number last year.
The tide of immigration last year,
however, was unually heavy. If
business continues to prosper in this
country, it is more than likely that
next year will see another heavy tide
of immigration, for by that time the
distinguished foreigners who have
come over to attend the ceremony of
opening the Northern Pacific to-day
will have spread far wide in Europe
accounts of the magnificent domain
over which they have been travelling
