WASHINGTON, Aug 2s.-speaking of
the charge so generally made against
President Cleveland by the Republicans

ton on the Canadian question and
abandoned his old position, Mr.. Grain, of
Texas, who was a member of the house
committee on foreign affairs in the last
congress, says that there is no founda
tion for it. "It is exactly the position
he took two years ago." said Mr.. Grain,
when the subject of a retaliation act
was engaging both houses of congress.
! remember very distinctly that the presi-
dent then expressed to me and other
Democrat members of the committee on
foreign affairs exactly the opinion which,
In his message, he expresses now in

THE PROPOSED FAIR.
Will Our Citizens Again
Lend Substantial Aid?
A GLIMPSE AT THE PAST
The Generous Givers of Special Pre-
miums viii Doubtless Again
Come to the Front.

The Deseret Agricultural and Manu-
featuring Society was incorporated il
the year 1876, by an act of the Cover
nor and Legislative Assembly. 1t ls
devoted TO the promotion OF the indus
trial arts and the development OF the
resources OF the Territory of Utah. 1t
has given fifteen exhibitions since its
organization, and purposes giving an
= other one early in the month of October
of this year. Its president and board
of directors are elected by the Legisla-
tive Assembly. and have hitherto
labored entirely without compensation
for the advancement of the material
interests of the Territory, and the
present board are prepared and expect
to continue to so labor in the future.
At the close of each of the past ex-
hibitions, the expenses have so nearly
equaled the receipts that no surplus has
ever accumulated in the treasury, and
the society is, therefore, without funds.
Nevertheless. it is going ahead with its
work, and will offer several thousand
dollars in premiums, for the best e1-
hibits of home products of all kinds at
the forthcoming fair. The Legislature,
at its last session, appropriated $50, 900
to be expended under the direction of
the society in the erection of perma-
nent exhibition buildings, but not a
dollar of this money can or will be used
to deiray the expenses of any exhibit
ton. 1t is to the gate receipts" en-
tirely then that the society must look
for means to meet the expenses of its
present undertaking.
AT THE LAST FAIR,
held in 1881, very substantial assistance
was rendered the society by various
public-spirited citizens in the offer and
payment of special premiums for the
best exhibits of stated articles. there
having been no less than fifty of such
-Epecial premiums awarded, and not
less than 81 goo in value dlsbursed to
the successful competitors. AS an in
centive to the emulation of the quite
worthy example set by those citizens
scfCA gO6lo d6OJ IAO oCSACbolJ Va VIC
society was directed, at recent meet
ing of the board, to request the local
newspapers to publish list of the
special premiums offered at that time,
and in the hope that you will appre-
oiate the intentions of the board and
acquiesce in its methods, enclose the
list. If you can lend the society and
its objects any encouragement in any
other way, it will be most cheerfully
acknowledged, as the fact that there is
nothing of a private character con-
nected with the society. and that its
aim and object is purely for the public
welfare is justification broad and ample
for anything you may feel inclined to
say in its favor.
Very respectfully.
