For The Fair.

The officers and directors of the Agricul-
tural Society met Monday afternoon and pro-
ceeded to map out q program for the fair
this fall. In order to provide room for the
increased exhibits resulting from free en-
tries it was determined to add to the floral
hall one or two wings. If two wings are
added the building will be made IN the form
of Gloss with fountain in the center.
The matter of new buildings and their cree
ton was left in the hands of committee
consisting of Messrs. Hubbard, Parkill and
Mcbride. New stalls for trotting stock will
be erected to be located by Messrs Sharp
stene and Saver. Expert judges will be Sc
cured, as far as possible, i'm the live stock
classes. The committee on special attrac-
tons were given almost unlimited power to
bring together such an exhibition as could
be secured. Eating houses will pay $25 IL
cense and booth rents will be raised. No
shooting galleries will be permitted on the
grounds. A superintendent of police will
have control of the policing Of the grounds,
and the gates. Drinking water will be sup
piled on the grounds and the fair be man
aged In the most approved plan. The out
look for racing Is excellent, director Sharp
stene having control of that department.
Entries will be free as was the case last
year. A considerable number of additions
have been made to all classes with the view
to add to the exhibits. The management of
the departments for the next year will be as
follows: Supt. of police, j. N. Mcbride;
Supt of class 1, VIM. Saver; classes 2-3, l..
Ryan; classes As, ID. Murlin; classes 9-15,

1t was also decided to fence the inside of
the track all the way around and to fence
the east side. Arrangements will also be
made for hitching teams east of the track,
and for water near by, etc. Permission
!, was granted to the Owosso wheelmen to

WOOL PRICES.

The enthusiastic advocates of the
Mckinley bill are very hard pressed
Facts are too many for them, but with 6
persistency worthy of a better cause
they are dislodged from one shelter only
to take refuge behind another. First OF
all, it was tin. The major had assured
them that. before his tariff schedule
went into effect on the first of July,
American competition would have re-
duced the market price. The great day
have pocketed an additional three mil
lions in the shape Of extra profits. A
few American spectators have added to
their gains. The working mans wages
have not risen, and one Of the necessi-
ties costs him more than ever.
When tin failed, it was wool. Well,
the American Wool Reporter ought to
be an authority on that subject. The
paper is conducted by men who are &C
quainted with the business, and it cir
culates amongst a class of workers who
know the facts that most Intimately con-
Germ them. Strange to say, the Re-
porter, in it's position of authority, has
no words of praise for the high-tariff
fetlch. 1t even ventures to lay sacri-
legious hands upon it and cast it down
from the lofty position it's devotees have
assigned to it. But we shall let the Re
porter speak for itself and the wool
grower:
The rrice of wool is now at the lowest
point of the year, and on some lines. espec-
tally X and Xxx grades, at lower figures thar
have been seen in several seasons. Seldom
has the month of July been ushered in with
the market in a more depressed and IN
settled state. The wool growers who awe
been looking to the aritf as a panacea for
the evils which nave beset them are most
woefully disappointed. High tariff on
wool has done them no good, and those
who were the most clamorous for the en-
actment of the tariff law, the Ohio and
Michigan wool-grower, have been the least
benefited. 1t has worked, in fact. to their
detriment. 1t is easy enough for high
tariff advocates to figure out" what the
course of the market ought to be, but the
test of experience has demonstrated that
consumers of wool are buying it on it's
merits. Importations of Australian wool
will not be checked by high tarif laws.
The latter, as far as wool is concerned,
have been demonstrated to be a delusion
and a snare, deseryedly involving those
who were the most instrumental in secur-
ing their enactment.

opinion run counter to the spirit OF the
constitution and initiate against wise
public policy.
To the mind Of the ordinary citizen.
u~ninfluenced by religious traditions and
connections, there seems nothing un-
reasonable in the commissioners posi-
tion as thus defined by himself. 1t 10,
in fact, in perfect harmony with the
recognized views of this country on the
question Of secular education. But,
Mr.. Morgan maintains his attitude
stirred up the uncompromising
opposition Of the bureau. No
pains were spared to prevent his
confirmation and afterwards to secure
his removal. The legitimate efforts Of
the government have been persistently
antagonized by tho bureau and it's Off
cials, and it is assuredly no fault Of
theirs that Indian government schools
have not been crippled or destroyed.
Contract schools have been receiving
hundred of thousands of dollars of gov
eminent money, and at the sam time
have been doing their utmost to mega
tive the value of all government effort
that was not running on their own pc
culiar line of belief.
1t is a formidable indictment that the
commissioner has drawn out. Public
opinion holds fast to the well-founded
belief that Il public schools are one of
the main safeguards of the country.
All that this republic of ours may right
fully hope to be, and the lofty position
which 1t must keep in the history OF the
worlds progress, are largely dependent
upon the maintenance Of public school
education. Our citizens will not easily |
suffer a system, from which they have a
right to expect SO much, to be tempered
with. 1t is only fair, however, to say
that the matter is not yet properly
threshed out. The commissioner is au-
thority for the statement that the bu-
e refuses to hold itself responsible
for the action of its employees or at
taches, unless officially endorsed. The
bureau, on the contrary, maintains that
10 is understood that none of its men,
bers or employees has a right to make
newspaper attacks upon the Indian
commissioner or any other public officer
and sustains its contention by proof Of
the resignation of an official who had
violated the understanding. 1t is posi-
that the violence Of personal attacks
has obscured the impartiality Of the
commissioner, and that the other sid Q
may have other facts to plead in de-
Meantime the affairs Of the bu-
reau are at a %standstill, and the public
will watch with interest the future de-
of the embroglio.

own account, he entered upon his duties

The selection of successor to Minister
Douglas at this time is i surprise here. 1t
was generally supposed that the place
would remain vacant at least until the re-
turn of the president. The appointment is
significant in that it indicates very clearly
that the government recognizes the dis
turbed state of affairs in Hayti and the
need of a representative there. Nothing is
to be learned at the state department re-
garding the condition of affairs on tle
Island. 1t would seem as though the Of
fetal channels of communication had been
as badly choked as in the case of Mr.. Egan
in Chill.
The advices that led the president to make
the appointment were probably commercial
reached town this morning and had 4 talk
with Secretary Tracy. To a GAZETTE cor
respondent he said that in his opinion Dur
ham, the new minister, is well qualified for
the post, and that his services are badly
needed just now. 1T is my view,' said he,
that the rumors from Hayti are all too
well founded. A revolution is as certain to
come as next year will follow this one 1t
is imminent and everyone expects it. | re-
gard Manigat as the strongest man in the
opposition party, and he will probably lead
the next outbreak. He, like Hippolyte and
Legitime, is black man. He is q strong
man with the opposition element. 1t is true
that the Haytian government promised the
st. Nicholas Mole concession, as it also is
that Hippolyte owes his success to this
country, and that the Mole will be ours some
day. We should have had it before now if
we had not been outplayed in the game"
