unpleasant feeling, as race prejudice
was manifested in the matter. Mean
while our men over in Franklin had
heard a rumOr that the officers had
been attacked and were being Murdered
by the MeXicans and they armed and
started for the old town to take it For
tunately, we headed them off just in
time. Our men would have taken the
town IN short order and the conse-
quenceS would have been very serious.
But the excitement soon was over and
there was no further trouble. In fact,
after we were mustered out of the
army, many of our men went over and
Joined the JuareZ forces and fought

Rio Grande Big River Then.
THE Rio Grande in those days was
large stream, over 500 yards wide, at
this point and never ran dry. I can
hardly realize that the small stream
now flowing is the same river. There
was an old ferry boat running then Just
above the Mexican Central bridge
There were very few people in Frank
lin then, but the old Mexican town was
quite pOpulOus. The vallty over there
was one long continuous garden for
miles and vineyards and fruit orchards
abOunded. The grapes, pears, onions
and fruits of PasO del NOrte were
famous all over the country.
Passing Of Old California Column.
MANY Of the old California column
remained and married native girls of
Mexican descent 1 regret that nearly
all of them have passed away. Among
them whom remember here were
Capt. Z. 3. Frink, Capt. J. D. SIOcum.
Maj. a. J. Fountain, Col. J. A Zabriskie,
Capt Dick Hudson, of Hot Springs. n.
N; H Gasl1ey, John Evans, George
Rand. Capt SlOcUm, who died last year
at his ranch, up the valley, west of Ne
silla, was second lieutenant Of company
z and afterWard promoted to captain
OF company G. Of our regiment A J.
Fountain. who was murdered about Il
years ago, was sergeant Of company c.
Zabriskie, who died in Tucson, was
regimental adjutant, and first Heuten-
ant Capt Joseph Smith went out as
captain Of company A, of the Fifth
regiment. Dick Hudson was second
Lieutenant and Capt. Hines was captain
Of company G, of the Fifth regiment.
There are a number of the old CalifOr-
MIA column boys living, mostly back in
California. a number of whom I met at
the reunion in Los Angeles. But here,
on the very spot where we camped so
long, there is no one left to tell the
tale. I should like to have a reunion
of the old California C umu here, and
think it would be a good idea for your
people to invite them. 1t would be
pleasant for the veterans and no doubt
OF great historic interest to your citi-
zens."

There is quiet but persistent

favorable to the stock show to be
held in Lewiston December 9to IA
by the Northwest Livestock Asso-
citation never before experienced
by any fair or show and way out
in the corners of the country the

and preparing to have their ami

The above is the statement of
Secretary S. B. Nelson, Of the
Northwest Livestock Association,
who arrived yesterday from Spo-
kane to confer with the local COM
mittee relative to the preparations
at the grounds and to direct the
mailing of the premium list. Dur
ing the past several months DR..
Nelson has been in the field
large per cent of his time and is
thoroughly in touch with the stu
alton throughout the northwest.
There are only three weeks in
which to complete the prepare
tons for the show" continued DR..
Nelson, and from the reports in
the office we will have a big lot of
stock and big lot of people to
care for here next month. The
show of individual horses will be

be in the same class as is seen at
the international show in Chicago

better collection of cattle and
sheep than will be shown here
next month.

AT the present time we have
on the preliminary entry blanks
over 200 individual pure bred ami
mails that will be brought to the
Lewiston show in December. The
permanent entry blanks will be
sent out with the premium list
and within a short time we ex-
pect to have a check on the car
load lots of cattle, sheep and hogs
that Will be brought here for ex-
hibition and sale purposes. There
is no possible check on the car
load lots but every report shows
additional stock being prepared
in practically every section of the
northwest and we expect the sup
ply of market stock shown here
to be sufficient to provide the
choice Christmas meats for the
markets of the cities of the north
west. Many of the cattle, sheep
and hogs have been under prepa-
ration for approximately year
and some very choice can be ex-
pected here. The Washington
State College at Pullman and the
University Of Idaho, at Moscow
will have exhibits here and each
institution will have a stock judy
ing team.
"The Association is especially
pleased with the interest devel-
oped throughout the country in
the boys and girls stock Judging
contests and there are a score Of
towns in Idaho and Washington
where the boys and girls meet
once or twice a week for instruct
ions in stock Judging and a num-
Der of towns have offered to pay
the expenses of their representa-
tives to the Lewiston show in or
der that they may be represented
in such contests. Taken all in all,
we predict the greatest success
for every department of the big
show and the sale and we expect
to see this institution become the
greatest institution of its kind IN
the western territory"
