The state Fair Question.

The adjourned meeting Of the Lewiston and
Auburn life members Of the Maine State Fair
Association and citizens interested in the per-
manent location of the State Fair in Lewiston
was held Monday evening
The committee appointed at the meeting
Friday evening to ascertain for what sum the
Manufacturers National Bank and First Ma
tionaI will sell the Park to citizens to be held
for public uses, and leased to the State Fair
Association for the purposes of its ANIMAL show,
reported they had waited upon the directors Of
both banks.
The First National Bank has responded by
the following action on their part:
Voted That the First National Bank hereby
offers to relinquish its claim on the Lewiston
Driving Park Association grounds, without
compensation, on condition that the Manu-
facturers' National Bank shall relinquish its
claim on said grounds and transfer them to
trustees for permanent use for the purposes to
which they are now devoted, for such sum as
the committee of citizens having in charge the
matter of grounds for state fair, may con-
slider a reasonable price for the same.
This offer of the First National Bank to re-
linquish their claim to the park property with
out compensation, for the purposes indicated,
leaves the committee to deal only with the
Manufacturers National Bank. Some of the
directors of this bank are absent, but the COM
mittee hope to be able to report a favorable
offer on their part
