eyes, said a stakeholder In the Fair
Association, 'we made some money last
week, and will apply the proceeds, after
paying our bills, premiums, etc, to re-
ducng our debt. We owed about ten
thousand dollars before the present Fair

week our debt would have run up quite
number of thousands OF dollars. As
IL Is, we will cut 10 down. tell you,
It's risky business. When we started
the Association we had no money 10
speak Of, and the first year we had
debt OF twenty-five thousand dollars
staring us in the face. We cut that 10
nineteen thousand, aud IL remained at
about that figure for several years.
The the flood OF 1854 Knocked Us back
again, but we struggled along, and 1891
saw US with about thirteen or fourteen
thousand of debt We cut tbIt bout
ten thousand, and this year will
whack another slice OIL it. Once we get
out of debt we eau do something big,
but with ten or twelve thousand dollars
ing big risks, for q week Of bad weather
might swamp Us"
