Everybody agrees that the best Of order
and decorum prevailed at the State Fail
last week, that the law against. the sale
of intoxicating liquors was well enforced
In the cities Of Auburn and Lewiston and
that snide games and lottery schemes
were reduced to the lowest possible num-
Der.
Even the Boston Globe acknowledges
the efficacy Of the prohibitory law as fol-
lows
The promises of the city and county
officers that the law against liquor selling
and gambling should be thoroughly en-
forced during State Fair week, we're rig
Idly kept and the week was the quietest
and dryest one which the city has seen
for many year. There was not single
wheel Of fortune or shell game seen in
town for the week, and as for liquor, the
thirsty had to bring it with them, for 1t
was well-nigh impossible to get 1t here.
The prophesies that such an enforcement
would kill the fair do not seem to have
been fulfilled, as the attendance was the
largest ever known In the history Of the
society.

FasSett for Governor.

The nomination of Hon. j. Fasset,
for governor of New York, by the recen
Republican state convention has had thu
effect of uniting the party for effective
work lie VIII put snap and spirit into
the campaign, The fact that he was Mr.
Thomas c. Platt's choice for the governor
hip, as well a. for the co|lectorship OF
New York, is no indication that he is moi
his own owner. In hi, brief political life
he has achieved his own honors.
He was born in Elmira So years go and
was there prepared for college. He grad
uated from Rochester University with the
highest honors for literary attainment in
1873, end selected the law IS profession
When he passed his examination David
Is. Hill made the motion in court upon
which he was admitted to prac,ice. In
November 1879, Archibald Robinson re
signed the district attorneyship of Che.
mung couny. The late Lucius Robinson
of Elmira was then governor, but he was
broad enough Democrat to appoint Fas
'ett to I'LL the existing vacancy. As pros
ecuting attorney Mr.. Fassett did some work
that attracted attention to his ability and
he stands high in his profession and as O
man and will make sharp fight.
