The District Fair.

The Agricultural Fair of the Sixth Dis
trict of the State is being held this week
at Agricultural Park. The district COM
prises the counties OF San Luis Obispo,
Fresno, Tulare, Kern, Santa Barbara,
Ventura, San Bernardino, San Diego,
Orange and Los Angeles. This is an
enormous scope of country. The prima
facie ground of objection to it, is that it
is too large by half. The counties be-
yond the mountains ought to be Topped
of and formed into district by them
selves. The more compact the district
Is made the more interest will center
around it.
There was a good attendance on the
grounds yesterday, and it will increase
from day to day. The fact that the fair
was postponed week because of the
rains had dampening effect
on its success in all respects.
But there ought TO he more interest
felt in the fair by the people OF the dis
trict. Another excuse for the lack of
interest is that the exhibit is cut in
two, both as to time and place. This is
more than an excuse, it is q reason
which explains much Of the existing
apathy. Some weeks ago, at the Acad-
envy Of Music in this city, one-half of the
fair was held. The genealogical, vege-
table, mechanical, and art branches
were there put before the public. Now,
the fact is, there ought to be pavilion
ct the park, and there at the same time
that the races are going on the other
exhibits ought to be set before the pub
lie. To scatter is always to invite de-
feat.
As it is, there is a noble display of fine
stock Of all sorts on the grounds. Not
one-half of the exhibits are yet in place,
but such as are in are very fine. Nc
section of the country, and no country in
the world can show finer specimens Of
stock than those on the grounds. These
remarks apply to the horses, cattle and
hogs in the stalls. All the finest strains
of cattle, of swine, and of work, road and
thoroughbred horses are represented
The swine are quite noticeable and fully
substantiate the claims made by the
HERALD that this is one of the very bes
sections in the Union for the breed
ing of this profitable domestic
animal. In the races yester
day there was a bunch of nine two
year-old colts, thoroughbreds OF thu
best running blood. They made up {
most rema rkable collection. Not thu
best stables in the famous blue gras!
regions of Kentucky could turn out bant
of youngsters which in general appear
ance or special points OF excellence
could eclipse those on the track at thu
park.
Today the exhibits will be greatly in
creased in variety and in number, anC
they will give pretty good idea of the
high rank this district takes in breeding
the best specimens of the best blood o
domestic stock Of all sorts. II all were
made of the fair which might be made
of it, the result would astonish all be-
holders, and would be great advertise
ment of the section. But great many
Of our best breeders will not take the
trouble to enter their stock, and for thii
reason only a partially correct impress
sion is created in the minds of strangers

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, October 2S.-Noth-

today, except that Rube Burrows is still
at large, and his pursuers need more
dogs. The Governor, in reply to the
Sheriff's request for help, sent twenty
picked men. The report that another

and is probably false. The impression
