Alba. Feb. 15.-Weather freezing al
nights little, but in the day time the
sun is shinging bright and the ther-
mometer registering so above zero.
Comparatively speaking, we have
had very mild winter here with the
exception of few days, and about
10 inches of snow Is the most we
have had at one time. Most of the
time, when 1t was foggy, freezing and
showing outside of the mountains the
weather was fine in here
The heavy storms all coming from
the north is probably the cause of
the mild weather in here. The snow
is disappearing very fast. The ground
is now about half bare in the prairie.
but back in the mountains the snow
is very deep.
Stock of all kinds have come
through the winter in good shape and
no losses to report. There is plenty
of hay here to meet all demands for
what stock there is in Camas Prairie.
The Horse and Cattle Raisers' as
sociation met at Ukiah yesterday with

out. He is muking arrangements to
resow as soon as he can get on the

1t is believed that all the winter
wheat in that section is frozen out.
The heavy rains in December made
the ground wet, and when the freeze
came suddenly it forced the wheat out
of the ground ana it lays there now
dead.

which exists in this vicinity prevails

a tale of woe comes from across

out in and around Hover. The water
cut a deep channel almost through

full. Mr.. Schrier's place was ruined

THE FIGHTS
IN -FOUR WARDS
FOR HONESTY

That many Democrats OF Ward 3 are
heartily wearied of Alderman Dunn and
his associates is now becoming plainly
evident but the voters OF that ward cam
not get rid of Dunn and his hold upon
their party, the anti-Dunn men say, save
by going to the caucus tomorrow night
The opponents OF Alderman Dunn have
made the issue very plain to the voters
and Alderman Dunn has helped TO clear
the situation by the campaign he and his
associates. have conducted. The feeling
in the ward is gaining ground that tht
Democracy of Providence will he stronger
Thursday night If Dunn and his wardsor-
ganization are permanently retired In
Ward 3.
Democrats in Ward are sparing all
the time necessary TO help DR. Carroll to
retain control of the party management
there. The Dorneyites, who oppose him.
are to be continued in the political grave
that they dug for themselves last year.
No voter I'm the ward doubts the De-
mocracy OF DIR. Carroll's followers, and he
is held to be a bold man and an enemy 10

other side.
As for Ward l, there is every indication
that the gang that has controlled ward
affairs there will no more buy and sell the
party for. their individual profit. Demo-
cratic leaders there intend 10 make sure
that the gang is cleaned up completely.
Those valiant fighters In the Tenth ward
who have, under the leadership OF Peter
G. Cannon and others, fought a good fight,
have put up a genuine Democratic ticket.
Quite recently the alleged Democratic
ward committee and the alderman and
councilmen, who are of mixed politics, are
said TO have met I'm the barn OF the chair
man of the Republican ward committee TO
frame a ticket to be voted for at the
Democratic caucus tomorrow night Some
OF the supporters OF the present ward or
ganization say that they are the only
true Democrats. but the connection be-
tween the leaders OF the two organizations
Is too close for ordinary voters to under
stand and approve. The Democrat who
fails to go to his party caucus in the
wards named and to lend his aid to the
decent men in the fight does not do his
duty TO his party

gan at once. The workmen came by hum
dreds-there is nearly 1000 of them all told
and the way they made the hammers fly
and the paint flow was a caution. Each
exhibitor has his own gang OF men to
build his own exhibit while another-and
by far the largest gang OF all--is employed
by the management OF the fair TO do the
general decorating and build the free at
fractions. Notwithstanding this great
army OF men all working at once. there
is the most perfect order everywhere. and
