The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1877-10-06


Fair came off on Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday of last week. The
weather being very pleasant, a large
number of people were in attendance
and on the whole the Fair was sue
cess There were more strangers pres
ent than We remember of seeing at any
previous exhibition, and If the propor>
ton of visitors from our own county
had equalled that from other places,
the crowd would have been immense.
The horse and cattle departments were
well fllel, but in Floral and Agricul-
tural Halls the display was meagre.
This is in part the fault of the company
and largely the fault of our citizens.
Notwithstanding the mary drawbacks,
we think the people were well blessed
with the Fair and exhibitors were gems
orally satisfied with the award of pres
miums. We are glad to know that
the company made more than paid
expenses and suppose another exhihi>
tion will be given. With the next the
arrangements of the present corpora>
ton expires, and it is to be hoped that
another will be formed that our Couns
ty Fair may be permanent institu
ton. Here is where the farmer can
show the products of his labor, where
the artizan can show the result of his
skill and where all classes can meet
and be mutually benefited
