Upon motion of j. g. Sampson, of
Rockford, the organization proceeded
to the election of Board of Managers.
After some discussion it was unani-
mously agreed that said Board should
represent all portions of the county,
and that the Board ut its first meeting
ON August 1ith-sh should elect the
permanent officers, fix the fee tor men,
bership if any Zee was necessary, and
to take such steps as they might deem
wise in securing, during the fair and
at other times, through committees,
samples of everything grown in Sedg-
wick county together with collections
of her minerals, soils, rocks, timber, etc.
The meeting was very harmonious,
and MesSrs. u. L. Thompson. j. e..
Sampson, DR.. Grcenlec, John Kelley
and others were enthusiastic in the
opinion that Sedgwick county would
be behind few if any counties in the
State.
The following named gentlemen
were chosen as board of managers,
and they are earnestly requested to
meet at the EAGLE Office on Saturday,
August 18th, to fully complete the or
ganization and to put its committees
to work:

1t will be observed that the Board of
Managers is very large-nearly fifty
live, wide-awake men who. if they |
take hold, viii make work light, yet
accomplish much.
With the advantage Kansas has al
ready secured in the way of separate
building and an exhibition by counties,
we should DO everything in our power
to secure such display of the pro-
ducts and capabilities Of Sedgwick
county as we may be proud OF.
