THE COMING STATE FAIR.
An Unprecedented Success Assured
For This Year,
The Grounds and Buildings all to be
III Readiness on the First Day.

As the opening day Of the state fair
approaches its success becomes more and
more assured, Never before in the his
tory of Nebraska's exposition has the
first day manifested as good a showing as
is now made two weeks before tho fair
opens. The exhibits Of stock, fruits and
lowers and agricultural Implements from
present appearances will be the especial
features of the show.
Owing to the increased demands for
room for stock some six weeks ago the
board of managers deemed it advisable
to make 140 more new stalls for horses
and cattle principally. AT the present
time every one is taken and the demand
for room still continues.
j. T. Allen, president of the State
Horticultural society, who is at the head
of this class at the state fair, has ordered
tho hall to DO cleaned to-day and to be
prepared to receive exhibits by tho 4th of
September. 1t is MIR. Aliens intention
to open this hall on Monday morning of
fair week with all tho entries of this
class on exhibition. This gentleman re-
turned only yesterday from trip into
the fruit portion of Nebraska and says
the apple crop this year has mover been
equalled in the state. He prophesios that
Nebraska this fall in this claas of fruit
will make a showing that she need be
ashamed of nowhere. The fruit exhibit
tors have nearly all given their assent to
enter their exhibits on the week previous,
making Mr.. Aliens undertaking a
success. The fruit taking premium here
will be kept by him and shipped to New
Orleans where it will become a part of
Nebraska's exhibits at tho exposition in
that place next winter.
The farm machinery department at
present looks as if it would be nearly
double in size of that Of former years.
The power hall at this time is completely
filed. Every company doing business in
this city will be represented, either by
itself or by those whose goods they sell.
The space of many of the exhibitors in
line has been cut down a third al
and if the present demand for
room continues it will have to be cut
down still more. Nearly every foot of
available space allowed this department
is already taken. Many of the various i'm
plement houses at home and abroad
are now constructing shelter for their
goods, and by the time fair opens the
north and east side of tho grounds will

1t Is intended blythe board of managers
to have all improvements in readiness
when the fair opens, thus avoiding the
inconveniences of former years. Much
to be done, but the board will
be on the grounds after next Monday to
oversee and push the work to compile.

A GOOD JOKE.
How The Democratic Committee
Have Bcen Distributing Re.
publican Campaign

WASHINGTON, August 22.-Sccrotaty Post,
Of the democratic congressional campaign com.
mittco, discovered today that the committee
was inadvertently helping along the rcpubb.
can campaign by distributing republican docu.
mcuts. The democratic committee have been
sending ont as one Of its principal campaign
documents q speech delivered by Senator
voorhees, on the Imprisonment Of McSwceuy,
Irish suspect, by British officials during the
Garfield administration, aud copies Of the
the speech are obtained by the committee Ivy
a rcQuisitiou upon the senate folding room.
They are delivered to the committee in large
quantities, several thousand vt q time, already
folded and in wrappers, aud are addressed 10y
committee employees and placed in Tho mails.
IL appears to have been the custom ot the com
mittec to rely altogether upon theintcgrlty and
care OF tho senate folding room officials aud
mail documents received from them without
examination. To-day, however, an employee
Of the committee discovered 10y accidentally
opening ono of the documents that he was
about to mail, that instead of Voorhees,
speech, the committee was distributing where
they could do tho most good, n republican
campaign document, entitled History and
Bcnetcicuco of Protection maze up Of

question delivered in the house ,freprcsenta.
tiyes last winter. An examination followed
and disclosed the fact that all the supposed
Voorhees, speeches in the possession If the
committee were copies of this document. Sec.
rotary Post went at once to the superintend
of the folding room and took HIM to task
about the meter, and was informed that tn
substitution OF one document for another was
an honest mistake. 1t was not known how
many republican documents were sent ont by
the democratic committee.
