6. B. Slight, the gentlemanly rep
resentative of the old reliable firm OF
Hall, Luhrs & Co., wholesale grocers
of Sacramento, has been in town this
week. Mr. Slight was the first trav-
cling man TO represent a wholesale

the many carloads of goods shipped
by his firm to Tonopah every month.

putting their hard earned dollars in
mines that do not exist in Tonopah.

Speaking of some of the benefits
to the people Of the town and country
as the sequence of county fairs, the
Columbia State sums up its conclu-
sions with the following clear cut
opinion in which We heartily concur:
"rle town and the country do need
b, get together, their interests are
mutual and one csnnot prosper with
out the o,her. There is hardly any
thing which will assist in the crea-
tion of better social and business
friendship between the two than
q properly conducted county fair,
where the products of the factory as
we'll as the farm, the stock Of the
stores as we'll as the stock of the
stables, can be displayed aud we're
with the appropriate amusements and
diversions the folks from the country
and the folks from the town can
mingls together and learn to know
each other better"

Some of the farmers are blue over
the destruction of their crops caused
by the excessive down pour OF rain
d ,ring the past week. This should
not be the case. No good can posi-
bly, come OF grumbliug with the
dispensations of providence and sit
ting down and spending our time in
useless repining over things and
conditions that are beyond our power
30 control and regulate. The in.
stincts of true manhood leads US to
arouse ourselves from the lethergy
produced by adverse circumstances
and face the emergencies before US.
Lat our farmers 60 bravely to work,
with as cheerful heart as they can
possibly wear, to retrieve, as far as
possible, their losses arising from
ruined crops. There is plenty Of
time in which to plant cotton, corn,
peas, potatoes and other products
and make abundant crops Let them
practice strict economy by looping off
all useless and unnecessary expenses
and go manfully to work and We are
satisfied that when the crops are all
housed, things will not look SO blue
as they now eeem and the result will
justify the hard work.
