A COUNTRY FAIR.

The county of Graham is ad-

outsiders come in they are aston.
ished TO find so many possibilities,
both from an agricultural and
mining point of view, that have not
been taken advantage of and that
as q general rule our people do
not seem to realize exist.
There is no section in the Ter.
ritory with grander opportunities
or brighter future before it; there
is no agricultural section surpasses
it, and the mineral deposits are
simply beyond comprehension.
Some steps should be taken to
bring our resources and our pro-
ducts prominently before the pub
lie, and there is no way to more
effeotually accomplish this than by
giving an old style country fair;
here all kinds of products can be
exhibited in such q manner as to
thoroughly convince all of the
productiveness of our soil; minerals
can be exhibited from the mines
and prospect holes that would
bring people to realization OF
our mineral wealth. Horses, cat.
tie, sheep, hogs and poultry could
also be exhibited.
| Such an exhibition of native
products would act as stimulus
to all branches of inductry. II
would bring people here from all
sections, both the home-seeker and
the investsr would come at that
time, for no better opportunity
could be offered for thorough in
vestlgation of our resources and
future prospects by those desiring
to ascertain the truth.
We would suggest that the peo
pie Of Stafford take hold of this
matter, organize and hold a fail

the fair would pay its own ex
penses and the future fruits to b'
reaped from such an exhibit can

FAKE OF JEFFERsogIANs.

Supporters of the Indianapolis
platform, upon which Palmer and
Buckner ran in 1895, display a
great deal of nerve when they
make themselves prominent at
dinners gwen in honor OF Thomas
Jefferson. Perry Belmont and all
who aid and abet him are the most
conspicuous examples just now.
The Indianapolis platform declared
unequivocally IN favor of a single
gold standard and a bank control
ed paper credit currency. Jefier.
son established the double gold
and silver standard, with the sil.
yer dollar as the unite of value,
and concerning banks of issue and
the English system of finance ne
said:
"Banks of issue have the reguia'
ton of the safety valves OF our
fortunes, and ,ondense and ex'
plode them at their will. In copy.
ing England we do not seem to
consider that like premises induce
like consequences. The bank
mania is one of the most threaten
ing of these mutations. 1t is
raising up money aristocracy in
our country, which has already
set the government at defiance,
and although forced at length to
yield little on this first essay OF
their strength, their principals are
unyieldiug. These have taken
root in the hearts of that class
from which our legislatures are
drawn, and the sop to Cerberus
from fable has become history"
Again, in writing to President
Adams in 1914, Jefferson said:
81 have ever been the enemy of
banks. Not of those discounting
for cash, but of those foisting their
own paper into circulation, and
thus banisbing our cash. My zeal
against those institutions was so
warm and open at the establish
ment of the bank Of the United
States that / was derided as q
maniac by the tribe Of bank mon
gers who were seeking to filch
from the public their swindling and
barren gains"
What would Jefferson have said
of the international conspiracy to
day to recognize gold alone as
money and to give the control of
the actual circulation medium,
bank paper, to bankers whose boss
is to be Rothschild and whose
orders as to the regulation of the
volume of our currency is to come
from Lombard street? Read the
republican 'monetary reform" bill
when it is introduced next fall.
