the mammoth horse of pure Norman blood to
the tiny Berkshire pig, whose porklsh eye had
just opened upon the vanities of this
subluhary sphere, came pouring
into the enclosure and seeking
each its proper location. Rough farm wagons
laden with poultry, spruce Democrat wagons
burdened with supplies of fancy groceries,
numbering furniture wagons overhowing with
the treasures of the cabinet-maker's art, digni-
fed lager beer wagons with untold supplies of
the thirst-quenching, nut-brown beverage-in
short all the countless train of moving vehicles
which the fair-going mortal is SO well acquaint-
ed with, moved in a mass from the city
to the great centre of attraction,
the fair ground. Even Forepaugh's S
elephants could not prove counter attraction,
and the omni-present small boy, Mikempt and
Mishod, forsook the lesser for the greater show,
and hurried forward 't to the fair"

For wonder everything was in order. Bor

the management had full and we'll trained

usually accessory before the fact at all exhi-
bitions of this character.


A GENERAL VIEW.


Arriving at the grounds at o'clock the
GLOBE man first essayed a general view of the
grounds, the track, aud the buildings, and
with the following result:


The grounds, though not the largest are now
the most complete and perfect in the State.
The location of the various buildings were de-
scribed in the GLOBE of yesterday. and their
arrangement are as near perfect when we con-
slider their uses as it is possible to make them.
The track is in perfect order-level as a barn
floor and smooth as the surface of mirror.
The stables and sheds are nearly all occu-
pied (there being 1000 In ali, for horses and
cattle) and still there is demand for more
room" 1t is safe to say that the management
could have added one-third more attractions to
the display of stock. if they could have agreed
to furnish the room. When one looks over
the full and complete display Of blooded ami

Few years ago the Chirlcahua noun tains were infested with hostile Apa ches; now with peaceful and thrifty stock-men and miners. On the 7th instant, another mining district was formed and bounded thus:

 Beginning at point on the south bank of Cave creek, due north of the most easterly point of the base of the hill, east of Leroy's mill-site at the Sulphur Spring, and running thence due south four miles; thence due west to the summit Of the Chiricshua noun tains thence northerly, along the sum. init of said mountains to the south line of tue Chiricahua mining district; thence easterly, along said south line to a point distant one mile east oi where said line crosses the wagon road passing up Turkey creek; thence southerly, in a direct line to the place of beginning.

We learn from Mr.. ARMSTRONG that
the people OF Rosne county are IN
dead earnest in advocating the
building of this road up through that
county, taking Writ IN the route. This
Is a rival route TO the other, and, al
though we believe it has not yet been
surveyed, it is thought to be some fifteen
miles longer. The people of Rosne will
show their faith by their works and vote

vited the road comes that way. If Writ
county could aid with as much more, the
rivalry would doubtless become sharp;
but it seems to be understood that Writ

her investment in the Little ksnswhs
Slack Water Improvement.


MIR. ARMSTRONG says the people of
that region feel an interest in the ex-
tension of our 2. w. & KY. Railroad
down to Parkersburg. This would no!
only be great thing for their rosd when
built, but good thing for the people of
that section, who would be glad to trade
IN this city. Of course the merchants

THE IMPoLICy of the present high
salaries is well illustrated in the contest
of Pennsylvania. Don Cameron is one
OF her wealthiest citizens. His salary
for six years is thirty-six thousand dol
lars. BY the expenditure of ten thousand
lie secures his reelection and the interest
Of one hundred thousand dollars year
for six years. This money is sent to him
monthly and therefore the interest is com.
pounded monthly and by the end of six
years his salary will be equal to the pay
ment of about $4,000. He does nothing
IN the Senate scarcely and can as well
attend to his own business there as he
could elsewhere, SO that he finds seeking
office the best investment for his ten
thousand dollars. Had the salary been
$1,000 a year, or IS day, as it was in
lo5l, it would have secured the services
OF better man, as Don would likely
have found better investment for his
money.

session, for the purpose of preventing
frauds in elections, enacted a law re

should be cast at any election the judges
of the poll should endorse ON its back a
number which should correspond with
the number of the vote on the poll-book

county has pronounced unconstitutional
as violative of the right of the voter to
cast secret ballot, as the numbering of
each ballot enables any one SO disposed
to identify it, and discover by whom il

WHY SHOULD the National Banks OBJ
ject to taking their bonds back and re-
covering the money for them? They
could invest this money no doubt at six
per cent. The proposition if carried out
would save the nation seventeen million
dollars year and the banks would con
troll their own money, and not tax the
people with seventeen millions of dollars
of interest. Seventeen millions is nearly
one fourth of the whole cost of running
the government under James Buchanan
in 1860.

ROAD MATTERs.-Among the most i'm nortant matters which the next Legislature will have to consider, the County roads de- mand foremost place.

The question has reached this point, and the people of the County should thorough Iy understand it. The road to the mines is a necessity, and the people of Prescott know this we'll. We think the taxpayers of the County, like sensible men, will arrive at the conclusion that it Is better policy to extend and repair the road, than throw away the whole amount already paid.

If is now recommended that the weight of fine Standard Silver Dcllar be increased, or its coinage diminished. We say by all means let 1t be the latter, as the Govern mcnt wholly regulates the coinage, deriving whatever profit there may be from the same; ie; There can be no fixed weight that wili make dollars of silver and gold co-equai Tn commercial value, so there can be no actual maintenance of double standard of values It is useless to argue that the silver pro, ducing interest IS to De greatly benehteo by the Silver dollar coinage in the endeavor 10 serve certain political enos. We were positively assured that the price of silver would steadily advance immediately after the passage of the Silver bill. What was the actual result! Why silver, instead of approaching, really went from o5d per ounce in London to 49d. We do not of course attribute this heavy decline ts the decree of Congress that silver dollar should be placed on an equality with gold dollar, hut it does imply that any amount of Congressional tinkering will not make the two dollars co-equal in value.

At a few minutes past one OF clock this morn
ing box II, corner of Summit avenue and st.
Peter street, rang out another alarm of fire.
The fire department. responded promptly as
usual, and found the well-known Park Place
hotel in flames. The fire seemed to have orig
mated in the center of the building on the
College avenue front, and brisk wind blow
ing spread the flames rapidly, and in almost
Incredible short space of time the whole i'm
mense building (which was frame) was wrapped
in flames.


The building had been closed hotel since
last fall and had no occupants save two young
men who acted as watchmen. The hotel fur
niture remained in the building and a portion
of what was the first and second floors was
carried out by firemen and citizens. But a
short time elapsed before it was unsafe to enter
the building and the salvage work was neces-
sarily suspended.

previous rain during the evening. all of the
adjacent buildings were in good condition to
Withstand danger. Though sparks and small
brands showered about like snow flakes they fell
harmless. The trees too. which surrounded the
hotel, hemmed in the fire, and the FIRE
men were thus enabled to give their undivided
attention to keeping the flames within bounds,
as it was, of course, useless to expect to save
such tinder-box as the building afforded. It
was nearly two hours before the flames had
done their work and the once popular summer
hotel was complete ruin.
