A COUNTY FAIR.


Last fall, if our memory serves us
right, not less than one hundred citizens
of this thriving agricultural valley, rich
in horses, cattle and stock of all kinds,
with it's farmers granaries filled to over
flowing; took the train at Bozeman for
Helena. and after three days of ques-
tionable enjoyment returned, after
spending about $1,000 At that time
the disguised excursionists cried loudly
for a fair at home, in the center of the
largest agricultural region in Montana,
where fast young horses are at dis
count; and, better than all, where farm
ers and stock raisers could expend their
money to some purpose-among those
who have cast their lot in this valley, to
the advantage of our future prosperity
and ad yancement. From that time until
this, the proposition has quietly been
dying. The CHRONICLE believed then
and now that the scheme was and is a
feasible one-one that should have the
earnest cooperation and hearty support
of every person who mas the interest Of
the county at heart First, organize a
stock company Of sufficient capital to
meet the demands of leasing the fair
grounds, erecting suitable buildings, etc.
Offer premiums for the best grains, the
largest vegetables, the latest hogs, the
finest chickens, the fastest horses, and it
is an assured fact that the crowd attend
ing viii be sufficient to pay the expenses
and more too. It will encourage agri-
culture, which is our main reliance; it
will give fresh impetus to our stock
raising industry and provide market
for our thoroughbred cattle and fast
horses. Think of i'll In less than one
week last fall, one car load of the pro-
auctions of our soil was gathered by two
or three persons of Bozeman, and after
wards gazed upon by the visitors at the
great Northwestern fair at Minneapolis
in mute amazement. 1t was the most
wonderful exhibit ever seen in that
state. There can therefore be no satis-
factory reason advanced in opposition to
the preparation of home exhibition,
with six months ahead of us, that will
be of sufficient merit to attract people
from all over the territory. Not such
crowds of outsiders that attend the Hell
ena fair will be attracted. at first, per-
haps, but if the Gallatin valley farmers
turn out en- masse, numerically the at
! tendance would be equal There has for
several years been an undercurrent Of
dissatisfaction with the race horse por-
ton of the territorial fair programme,
which last fall broke out in open discon-
tent. The management Of the Gallatin
county fair, if in the hands Of men who
had the interest Of this section at heart,
could obviate these fragrant abuses, so
loudly denounced We have the pro-
ducts Of the soil necessary to make the
agricultural portion Of the exhibit Of
interest, and the horses to make it sue
cess. All we require is sufficient energy
to set the ball in motion.

Justice to Mr.. lines, who is lawyer 0
Bozeman who expects to remain here
and who knows no home outside OF
Montana, we will state for the informs
alton of the Helena Herald, that he is
not an applicant for a district clerkship,
as has been reported around the terri
tory by Mother Grunt." He is from
the same section of Indiana as Judge
Pollard, and consequently has friendly
feeling for the Judge With this intro
duction we present the letter

against me. The only thing that | have
to fear is the lock between the senate
and Misunderstanding to fear as to

two for the territory to assume my duties
There never was a more malicious and
unwarranted attack made upon anyone
than has been made upon me, and
have proven the same to the entire
satisfaction of those who have examined
my papers, and will to the senate when

Hoping soon to see you and the people

THE WEATHER.

The weather in Bozeman for the past
two weeks has been DELIGHTFULLY."- warm
and pleasant, the thermometer during
that time has not registered ten degrees
below freezing. Winter is not lingering
in the lap of spring this year to any
great extent. In fact, it looks very much
as if the saucy miss had given him the
mitten. One of the peculiaEities Of the
climate was witnessed on Wednesday
and Thursday of last week. People who
left Bozeman, were greeted at Billings
with an atmosphere that registered %
below zero, and when they reached
Mandan, a ~ degree blizzard was in
waiting. Through Dakotaothe cold was
intense, and at st. Paul the thermometer
ranged from u to 20 degrees below. AS
long as the chinook prevails and
can reach the western base of the Boze-
man range, an ice palace project in this
section would be as illogical as it would
be in the everglades Of Florida.
