Anent That Fair Press Ticket.

SAN ANTONIO, August 2.
Daily LIGHT;
In an editorial in Wednesdays
LIGHT, headed Gan Appreciative AS
ISOLATION" you favorably comment
upon the recognition of the press by
"a fair association in the far west"
1t may be of interest to yourselves and
readers to know that the tickets bear
ing the matter referred to were orig
ipally issued by the Union Agricultu-
raj and Industrial Society of Plain
we'll, Mich, about eight years ago,
dence that the writer of the card Is

or was secretary of the Union associa-
ton at the time of issuing this now
famous ticket. and he delegated to q
gentleman all matters of press work,
who took this method to convey q
needed lesson to other fair associa-
tions, that were constantly asking
the free use of newspaper columns,
and were very niggardly whenever
the question OF reciprocity was
preached.
The issuing of the tickets bearing
this matter had an excellent effect in
Michigan, and it's publication in
Texas will not fall on sterile ground.
By premium lists already issued, I
learn that some Texas Fair associa-
tions purpose comforting upon the
country press the inestimable boon of
q free admission to the fairs provided
editors will ask for the same, and al
SO in certain cases, secure the fndorse-
ment of city editor, mot necessarily

walk away with pumpkin. | do
not belieYe such associations will be
bothered with many applications for
admission from the country press.
Self respect will forbid it. Fair man
ayers should adopt different tone
toward their able co-laborers, the
editors. EXPERIENCE.

THE country very generally is ac-
cepting the conclusions of the census

political ends is lost in the roar of

THE Dallas state fair directory have
enlisted the members of congress
from Texas in behalf of their fall
meeting. Each congressman is to
nominate committee of one gentle
man and two ladies from his district,
who in turn shall nominate a recep-
ton committee of ten young ladies to
act during the fair. These young Ia
dies are to receive all distinguished
visitors who, attend the fair, and do
the honors. This is probably In an
ticipation of the apocryphal visit of
President Cleveland and his we'll
known preference for young ladies.
The announcement itself as an adver-
tisement for the fair Is not bad idea.
THE Houston Post acknowledges
the receipt of the San Antonio Fair
premium list, saying:
The Post has received the premium
list of the International Fair and Ex-
position at San Antonio. The premi-
ums offered are extensive in range,
and are chosen with great discrimina-
ton, and the live stock and farm feat
ures alone will do much toward de-
vsloping that wide and fertile coun-
try known as Southwest Texas.
Now let Brer. Johnson put an extra
smile under his hat and come up and
view this goodly land of promise and
disabuse his mind of the impression
that Houston and Galveston lead the
procession. He will find the LIGHTS
latch string out and the right hand of
fellowship extended by the Fair folks
and lions claw grip given where it
will do most good.
