MCGREGoR, TEX, Oct. S.-The sun
rose clear this morning and a gentle
breeze assisted TO put the ground in excel
lent condition. The day is pleasant and
the Grange fair opened in earnest. Many
new exhibits were added to-day, max
ing display of nature and art far be-
yond the expectations of the most SAN
guine. Promptly at 10 n. m. d. H.
Spencer's band began the days pro-
gramme by rendering some choice music,
VIII ch continued till l0:30, when the live
stock parade appeared on the scene.
This was an excellent display of live
stock, consisting of various breeds of
fine horses, mares, colts, jacks, jennetts,
cattle of various breeds, sheep, goats,
hogs, etc. 81 never saw anything TO

some of the objects and aims of the order
and what they had accomplished in the
way of disseminating agricultural kuowl-

he said was step in the right directi on,
and that il was now fixed fact, an as

sister city, envled McGregor this great
boon. Ths speaker then took up the
tariff question, aud discussed at length
the fatal mistakes made by our Re-
publican legislators on that subject.
He presented un extensive array of facts
and figures 10 prove that the nearer We
approach free trade the better for the
farmer. That the taxes on lmpo:tations
was q small amount compared to the
amount paid out by the con-
sumers TO home manufacture in
excess of actual cost on

tariff question should not be party

farmer, and he has n right to speak out
On the question regardless of party affili-
atoms.
1t was an out and out free trade
speech sustained by convincing argu-
ments. The audience gave close atten-
ton and frequent cheers.
