The Fair.

The fair begins next Wednesday
and should the weather be favorable
all four days will be largely attend
ed. Everything points toward sue
cess. The first day, which is not
commonly the case, will be as attrac-
tive as the last.
The business houses will be
closed, many, If not all the shops will
stop work and everything possible to
give the fair grand send-oT will be
done. We are glad to zee that our
business men recognize the fact
that the benefits accruing from a
successful fair are not confined alone
TO the stock holders, but that every
one is more or less benefited. Let the
workmen and everybody engaged in
mercantile business go and have a
rest from labor and confinement one
day in the year. The directors have
spent great deal of time aud been at
vast troublein perfecting the arrange
ments for successful fair, and we
hope their efforts will not be fruitless.
