RICH MOND FAIR.
A Large Crowd end Fine Exhibits, but ]
Needs Race Track.

RICHMOND, Sept. 2G.-(Special. The
18th annual cattle show and fair OF the
Richmond Farmers and Mechanics Ciut
was held on their grounds at the Reed
meeting house Tuesday. The fair itseli
was substantially the same as has been heli
on their grounds on previous occasions
II you have ever been 10 fair, anf who
has not, you know just what II
is like. A long string of cattle
stand hitched TO stone wal
or stump fence, each chewing his oi
her cud as the case may be, seemingly indlf'
ferent to their strange surroundings. Nov
and then the low of some uHwonsed crea
ture is heard along the line to remind one
that homesickness, which has at one time
made life burden to us all, is shared BY
dumb creatures. There we're sleek lJok,ul
noodles. sheep With fine wool on their
backs and swine whose bristles were white
and fine.
In the fair house n good showing OF
fruit and vegetables was made, while this
ladies made go d display of fancy work
Nothing was the matter with the day over
head, but under foot it was hardly up ID
ones IDEAL of good terra .frma. The GROVE
seemed, however, to be unmindful of tht
discontinue on account of the wet con
diton of the ground
There were people enough present. Only
cne thing-a horse trot--was needed t.
make the fair great success. The mem
bers of the club begin to realize that fail
without a horse trot is much like church
that is without a pastor. Richmond ha'
some fine horseiiesh, and if they could be
brought out one of the best fairs in th,
State might be held here. 1t is believef
that at no distant day track will be bull
and run in connection with the fair grounds

The legislature cannot do a more
popular thing says the Post Intelli-
gencer than to pass the Roscoe Gig
arctic bill that is now pending. There
has not been single valid objection
yet raised to 1t. Representative Webb,
Of King county. who is the head Of a
wholesale grocery house that probably
handles as many cigarettes as any
firm in the state, is strongly in favor
of the passage of the bill. This may
be taken as conclusive evidence thai
the merchants who are obliged to dea
In cigarettes so long as the customers
demand them are not opposed to 1T
passage. o.
If the only persons who were addict
ed to the habit of cigarette smoking
were men Of mature years, who ma
be said to be responsible only to them
selves for their actions, the case woul
be different. 1t is well-known, how
ever, that the great evil in connection
with the cigarette habit is the constan
menace and temptation to the yout
of the state. If the Roscoe bill be
comes a law the rising generation wi
become better men physically, mer

In the case of Israel Gragg,
charged with the crime of rape on
Florence Birchard, the defense moved
Yesterday in the circuit court for a
new trial. on the ground Of errors Of
law committed during the trial and
which they claimed created an impress
sion In the minds Of the jury preju-
dicial to the defendent. The Judge,
without hearing any argument on the
other side, speedily disposed of the
objections of the counsel and called up
the prisoner to receive sentence. In
passing sentence the Judge said that
| from the verdict Of the jury he could
| not do otherwise than suppose the pris-
oner guilty, and IL he was guilty 1t
was of crime committed in a most
atrocious manner on the person Of a
| child Of the tender age of eleven years
The crime was next to murder, the
worst known to the law, and as 1t was
committed under such revolving cir
cumstances he did not think the pun
lshment provided by law was any toe
strong and he therefore sentenced him
to the full penalty of twenty years i'm
prisonment.
