Especial to the Globe. /


of Fargo to-day, is in a
fervor of excitement, and the streets are
animated by vast influx of people, and
the scene is one of unwonted gayety even
for this rafting metropolis, the enterpriz-
ing citizens of which have long since be-
come accustomed to line of busting
commotion and activity.
The stranger within her gates
this morning must have recognized per-
force, that something unusual was on the
taps; as the morning panorama presented
on all sides gala day appearance. The
occasion for the animation and display was
the opening of the Fargo fair which com
menced to-day under the most favorable
auspices.
The morning dawned damp and muggy,
and for time it seemed that nature was
about to throw a wet blanket en- thu mo-
oeedlngs But if there were any ravens
who croaked, their untimely predictions
were not realized, for as the rnorniup adj
vanced Old Sol came to the front and Of
noon Fargo lay bathed in flood of golden
glory.
The weather while not Offering any seri-
GUS drawback to the fair, was trifle cold
throughout the day and listers were not at
all uncomfortable At noon the Gr.oBa
representative followed the fashion of the
hour, and securing a fast flyer, the headApf
the noble steed was turned in
the direction of the fair grounds
which one situated about a mile north of
Pthe city, and access to which Ia had, by
means of as fine driveway as there is in the
country, and once on the grounds the usual
hustle, excitement and commotion incident
to a fair opening, was presented.
A brass band in gorgeous uniform occu-
pied position on the grand stand and ap
ltated the cir at intervals in measures of
melliHuous harmony. There was the usual
blending Of jockeys, horsemen, sight-seers.
tradesmen, exhibitors, lemonade tends.
gamblers, pool sellers and so forth
a hurried inspection of the grounds and
buildings demonstrated that the disn,av
would be both extended andcreditable, and
with few days Of bright weather the sue-
cess OF the fair is assured beyond perad-
venture.

The display of horses and cattle. al
though not completed to-day, is admirable
and reflects great credit on the golden
northwest. It thoroughly demonstrates
the probability of raising as fine stock in
this northern region as can be produced in
the country, and it further shows that the
men OF the best judgment and sagacitv are
turning their attention to the work. II
would be useless to undertake to partiuIar
ize as to the stock now on the ground as
additions are constantly arriving, and by
tomorrow, when the display will be COM
plete, an extended satisfactory notice NAV
be made There are now in the comforts
