The speed ring, with 50, 10000 In purses
will offer unusual attraction and excit-
ing times may be expected on the fast
and perfect track. A number of ''dark
horses are being groonled for these
races, and some displays OF speed seVil
be made which will tastOnish the ma
tives. !" The displays of new and inn
proved agricultural achineryoWilI be of
unusual magnitude and of consequent
interest to agriculturalists. In the live,
stock department, upon excellence OF
which the association has always prided
itself magniicentinc and imprOv-
ment WIll-bs Witnessed a 4agge number
of recentl9 imported herds of thorough
bred cattle and horses, which have new
er before been displayed In "A america.
will be on exhibition, among them wall
be animals that have carried off the prl1S
es against all competitors in Europe.
While all these prinGe4y attractions will
be held forth in the line Of displays OF
ali kinds, the entertainment Of the pub
lie will not be.fOr3ot6an. A large num-
Der of varied novelties having been ar
ranged for, among them will be high
-ly exciting mile and repeat Roman race
between men standing; q grand ladies'
mile-and-a-half English hurdle race on
horses; ladies'.m and repeat bare
back race. In these races entries have
positively been made, forfeit money put
mp, and the races will be for blood, Rec
ognizing the interest taken in roller
skating; the management at a great eX-
pense is erecting mammoth hard ma
pie floor on which exhibitions of skill
will be given by champion roller skaters
from all over the country, This will be
the first grand interstate roller skating
contest ever held in the country, and
will alone attract thousands .Of5'vistors
from abroad. These are but q few Of
the many rare attraction to be offered.
Our readers viii do well to remember
then, thas Kansas as still at the front,
that In I'LL exhibits of products!she chal-
lenges the world. And that at Bismark
Grove, Sept. first to sitXh, will be the
grandest display of Kansas and western
eprodHcts ever, gatherede together. = Re
tn6mbeF that this IS the great successful
fair, and no bankrupt concern relying
on charity and local contributors for its
existence.

KANSAS AHEAD.
She Throws Down the Gauntlet to All the
World.

Kansas enjoys more widespread and
worldwide reputation than almost any
other state in the union, and in the short
quarter century Of her life she has gained
a place in the; starry armament of states
which other commonwealth have failed
60 reach in thrice her years of life. This
is due to the fact that from the earliest
inception Kansas has been foremost in
everything. She has fought her battles
and done her work nobly and with par
donable pride; she has taken care that
she should receive the credit for it from
the world. Perhaps in NO way In later
have Kansans done more to further the
interest OF their beloved state, which
they gained through. fire and sword,
than by the magnificent displays of Kan
saS products that have been made at va
rious expOsitions throughout the. coun-
try, and at which she has invariably
taken the first place and has surpassed
every competitor. Specimens of the
countries products are unimpeachable
evidence Of the fertility of the soil and
their testimoney cannot be gainsayed.
Approaching these facts. the vYKESTERN
NATIONAL FAIR Was inaugerated years
ago and the first of the great western
exhibitions, which have become SO IA
nous and were so widely copied, was
held at the unsurpassible grounds at
Bismark Grove in 1880. This was the
first ''big fair" and ever since that time
in spite of strongest opposition from. en-
ViOus competitors the Bismark Eair has
brought tOgether the most magnificent
displays OF agricultural products that
have ever been looked upon in this or
any other land. These great fairs, far
surprising any To which the torn has
been hitherto applied, have been worth
hundreds of THOUSANDS OF dollars TO Kan
sas, and every citizen should feel q di-

the Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone
Company writes the TIMES from Bel
KNAPP that he will establish telephone
exchange in Eagle City as soon as the
roads will admit of it, and that from
that place he will construct connecting
lines to all important points in the
Ceur d'Alene country, after which he
will come to Wood River, to extend
the system here.

Ore and Bullion Receipts at this Place
Last Month.

During the month of February
there were received at the Haley
Sampling Works 4S4,1l7 pounds Of
ore. In addition two carloads of
Ramshorn bullion were also received
and shipped to the Aurora (llI.) Re-
hnery. But for the heavy storms
which blocked up the roads, the ship
ments would have been double. Still
the above is a very good showing fol
the dullcst winter month.

THE $40 RATE.
1t expired bv Limitation the 31st of
December,

Mr.. Forbes, railway station agent
at Bellevue, is reported as saying that
the $50 rate on ore worth less than
500 per ton, from HALEY to Omaha,
is still in force. Mr.. Forbes ought to
keep posted. The rate referred to
was only temporary, and expired by
limitation on the 31st of December
If he were to accept ore on that rate
his official head would doubtless be
cut off so quickly that he would moi
know how it was done.
