THE STATE FAIR. A
The Texas state fair and Dallas expo
sition, to be opened on the 10Th of Oc-
tober next, will be the grandest enteEss
tainment of the kind ever held in the

the eproducts-mineral agricultural, in
dustrial, horticultural aud live stock-of
the greatest state of the greatest nation

lists and homeseekers will visit this grand
attraction, it appeals to no people as it
does to Texas people and its benefits
reach no people as they do Texas
people. For this reason the live,
progressive citizens of Texas should
vie with each other in making the
fair a success so far as it is calcu-
lated to show the resources of this
state. Each county should have its re-
sources exhibited in attractive shape, so
that the visitors from abroad may see in
what county or section they can be best
suited, either in homes or for investment
- capital.
There is nc state that can offer such
varied inducements to the capitalist and
hehomeseeker as Texas, and it will be
those counties which take the greatest
Interest that will be the most benefited.
the various railroad lines of the state are
arranging one-fare return ticket rates to
the@&ir from all principal points III the
Sto6thern states and from all large cities /
East and North, thus assuring a large
number of outside visitors, many of
whom will either remain in the state or
slsEest their money here.
As far as attractions are concerned
no fair III the country viii offer such in
=, Col, Il
Dallas exposition. On each day some
orator Of national reputation VIII make
an address. Those who come will have
the opportunity of hearing such men as
Hon. Chauncey NJ. Depew of New York,
Hon. Jeremiah Rush, secretary of agri-
culture, Hon John N . Thayer, governor
of Nebraska; ex-President Grover Gieve-
land of New York Hon. Henry waiter
son, the iIlustriou5 journalist, any many
Others. -
The races, lasting eleven days, will be.
the greatest turf event ever held in tfFS
South, and horses of world wide notorietv
will contest for the most liberal purses
eyseoHered in the South.
fJace would forbid the enumeration of
the countless attractions which have heSa
secured for the entertainment of 500 ,0ao,i
visitors who are expected to be presently
i surely behoOves every county in TexaSsf
to make an effort to reap some OF the BEN
efits to follow this grand exposition, and
1t is to be hoped that no county or COM
munity viii prove laggards in this race of
progress and enterprise.
