The Grant Cotwrv News is the

hinsed political news, miscellaneous

CAB I).
By invitation, the Canyon City
Brass Band visited the Cffim'tv Fair
Grounds on the second day of the
late Fair and ttid. their utmost to
furnish music for the visitors there
at, -without charge or compensation.
Yet no notice of their appearance
was taken by the Association none
of its' officers acknowledging their
services, either in public or private.
It seems that the presence of the
Baud and the'r music was an annoy
ance to the Association manipula
tors, and that they had not time or
inclination to extend to it the
simplest courtesies, though there
was ample time and inclination for
the officers to advertise the auction
of a wandering sheep man. We
therefore most respectfully ask the
pardon of the Agricultural Associa--tion
for our intrusion.
In this connection we desire to
tender our heartv thanks to Mistress
Trowbridge and Herburger for the
delicous dinner furnished us on the
dibove named occassion.
CANYON CITY BRASS BAND.
We were somowhat surprised- that
no thanks were tendered fclie band
by the officers, as a certain person
told us that he had never failed- to
raise a good purse for a band; but,
perhaps he forgot the boys on this
occasion. After cheers had been
given, for private men and other mat
ters and no notice taken of the band
ive spoke to C. W. Parrish, Mr.
PaIuier,N Thornton and others of the
cooluefis and then proposed three
iheers for the Brass Band which was
given with a vim.

potatoes and, in our opinion, are as
good as any that have been brought
to Canyon City this fall. He will
accept our thanks for a sack of the
beauties.
PIe::se Take Particular Notice.
Thera appears to be a doubt of E.
?. Simms having the right to gather
up Mires' cattle. On the first Mon
day of Court last, myself and two
other persons read the correspon
dence between Simms and said
Mires. We read the writings that
were drawn between Mires and
Simms, near Boise, Mires giving
Simms a perfect right to gather up
all the cattle he bad left between
Camp Watson and Boise. We rend
five or six letters from Montana from
said Mires written to Simms. Tin
contents of those letters corresuond-
ed with the first written contract.
Mires stated in his letters that he
had received letters from certain per
sons in this vicinity saying that
Simons was acting verv bad about
the cattle having gathered up about
125 head of cattle and disposed of
them. Miros stated that he had
been inforincd that Simms had re
ceived the money for chose cattle
that are now in law. Why should
persons gave Simms his orders not
to take another one of the Mires'
cattle. Simnis gave me the names
of those persons who did this, but
I will omit them.- E, M. TownSend,
his grandfather, and I, his grand
mother, have raised Simms. I am
bound to believe that all this dis
turbance has come up by persons
wantinc the cattle left on the limits I
given to Simms. !
It is said that the love of mora y
is the root of all evil, they may -ay
:i :.. i r i t :. : t
it is i lie iuve oi xioraes. jl suy it is
the love of cattle in this case.
N. B. Two months since- Simms
called for his clothes, saj'ing he was
t going off for he thought he was in
danger of persons up the valley.
