COCHITI GOLD MINES.

Those seeking gold dollars to euro
hard times are invited to investigate the
new gold mining camp (placer and
quartz), near Cochiti, New Mexico. As
says show valuable pay dirt. When
Spring opens up the rush will be heavy.
Many are going in now, to be on the
ground floor.
You can reach there quickly and at
reasonable rates via Santa Fe route.
Buy tickets to Cerrillos, Santa Fe or
Wallace. Present stage fare to Cochiti
from Uerrillos is $3.50; from Santa Fe,
$500 and from Wallace, 600, with re-
ductlon for large parties. The mines lie
about % miles from Cerrillos, 35 miles
from Santa Fe and 20 miles from Wal
lace, and are comfortably reached from
either point over good roads by fast
stage limos.

SOME people entertain the falla-
cious idea that the Nation should
provide work for everybody at
good wages during seasons of de-
preston. The Government has no
money with which to prosecute So
called public works, that would
come in competition with and kill
off private enterprises, which are
the very things that ought to be
fostered and encouraged, except
such as it raises by imposing taxes
on those who have succeeded in
accumulating property. In other
words, the idea is that the indus
trious and frugal should be taxed
to support those who recklessIy
live up their income in good times
and so get caught with their gar-
ments down IN every time OF hard
ship. There would be no justice
in such a prostitution of govern
mental functions Say what we will,
in this country the majority OF
men may and do, year with year,
make more than a living and thus
can tide over seasons of depres-
sion which are inevitable in any
country inhabited by enterprising
people. The Government, nor any
party in control of it, isnot responsi.
ble for the follies Of individuals.
What America needs most is more
manly courage aud determination
TO face the world ~ il is to de.
pend more on self and to despise
whining and whimpering over
things past. The government
should stand out Of the way OF
private enterprise.

IF Gen" Coxey should be
Gagged in a calaboose while on his

by such exhibitions of trampism

There was a large number of cattle On
exhibition. In respect to numbers alone
the show of cattle would compare favorably
with that of any previous year, while there
has never before been so good a represen-
tation nor so large variety of the various
breeds. The society offered premiums for
thoroughbreds and grades of seven differ
ent breeds of cattle, viz, Durham Short
horns, Holsteins, Guernseys, Jerseys,
Herefords, Devons and Ayrshires. All
these, with perhaps one exception, were
represented by beth thoroughbreds and
grades, and one kind not included in any
of the above were exhibited. These latter
we're the Swiss cattle owned by O. A.
Kelly of Worcester, Mass, the herd con-
sisting of about 20 head, including the
handsome old bull, Alphonso, and the
two-year-old bull, Duphay Boy, with
cows heifers and calves. This was a rare
and interesting exhibit Mr.. Kelley has
shown his Swiss cattle at the great fairs in
many different states from Georgia to New
England, and, of course, he takes premi-
ums everywhere, and can show about a
half bushel of ribbons, mostly blue. He
took many blue Tibbbns here. One of his
COWS was entered in the milk test, and one
in the butter test.
II is noticeable that the relative number
of Durhams shown at our fairs appears to
he growing less from year to year, yet
many fine specimens of this valuable Old
breed were seen on the ground. The most
extensive exhibit of this class of cattle was
made by A. F. Waite of Brattleboro, to
whom most of the premiums, both for
thoroughbreds and grades, were awarded.
Grade Durhams were also shown by j. w.
Thurber, D. NJ. Barber and others. ID. NJ.
Barber won a first premium on yearing
steers. w. X. Fisher had finely matched
pair of twin two-year-old steers. G. p.
Britton of Mortified, Mass, also exhibited
a thrifty pair of two-year-old Durham
steers. closely matched, and r. C. Ingra-
ham of Guilford good pair of three-year-
old steers, and W. f. Richardson first
premium pair
The exhibits of Holsteins and Jerseys
and their grades exceeded that of all others
| One of the largest and best exhibits of the
former was made from the Brattleboro Re
treat farm. Their two famous Holsteir
bulls, as well as many other animals from
their herd, would take first premiums al
almost any fair in the country if entered
for competition. The officers of the Brat
tleboro Retreat are entitled to great credit
for their extensive exhibition of fine blood
ed animals, which, as well as their valuable
contributions to other departments of tn,
fair, is made freely, none of their exhibits
being entered for premium.

The ninth annual Valley Fair has closed
in blaze of glory which outshines that of
all its predecessors, brilliant though they
were. Once more the weather god smiled
benignantly, and did his share with two
days of such perfect weather as might
well arouse the envy of less fortunate COM
munities. Brattleboro did her share, and
the Connecticut valley, all along the line
from Springfield to Windsor, responded,
while the fame of the fair brought the
choicest exhibits that New England affords.
From the beginning the aim has been to
make the fair a cattle and farm show.
Never before has this aim been so COM
pletely realized, In numbers and variety
the cattle show exceeded that of any fair
given in New England this year, and the
display of vegetables and other farm and
garden products was conceded by every
body to be in a class by itself.
The cavalcade, the original and distin.
gushing feature of the Valley Fair, was
dream of beauty long drawn out, the num-
Der of equipages being nearly twice as large
as last year, and the decorations fully as
extensive. A Boston woman, who saw
the coaching parades at North Conway
white Mountains) and LenoX in the
Berkshire hills, pronounced the Brattle-
boro parade as eXcelling both of those ia
nous events, in variety and artistic merit.
No doubt this compliment was well de-
served.
On the track Gil Curry, the "gray
ghost" put the record down to PA IA.
The attendance Wednesday was 1000, and
Thursday it exceeded $4,000, making the
total slightly in excess of last year.
