THE SHOOT OCCURRED.

The gun club tournament closed this
morning under rather unfavorable wealth
er conditions which did not allow as good
scores as otherwise would have been
made. The wind blew the dust in
clouds over the range and shooting was
far from agreeable. This will explain
in part why better scores, in some in
stances, were not made The average

1t takes good deal OF money from
some source or other to run district fair
and make it success as such. Treasurer
Klaus of the fair association states that
the receipts Wednesday from all sources
we're over 81 600 less than last years
first pay day of the far and from $1,000
20 $500 less than the association ex-
pected this year, and had natural right
to expect. The reason for the deficit
was not II the gate admissions, or gen.
eral entries, but mostly in the loss of
revenue from games of chance, such as
are generally allowed on fair grounds
where successful meeting is had.

THIRD DAY.

In Northi Dakota it is meteorological
certainty that there Is no telling what a
day will bring forth. Yesterday morn
ing promised fair weather, later winds
arose and made out of doors dusty and
uncomfortable. Today the wind has
about complete possession of the streets
and the fair and no North Dakota wind
of the regulation kind can be ignored.
The far program was sadly interferred
with aud the enjoyment Of hundreds OF
visitors greatly marred.
The barometer promises better wealth
or tomorrow. The wind storm which
commenced blowing before daylight
kept up gale speed almost the entire
day. It drove the crowds off the streets
into houses, hotels and stores; it raised
clouds OF dust high IN the air and soon
showed that but little could be expected
in the shape of amusement at the fair
grounds. In the afternoon the wind
somewhat abated, and nearly all strang-
ers 10 the city went to the grounds. but
little cemfort was to be had except
under shelter.
Tomorrow, the last day, promises bet.
ter weather. 1t will be the best day OF
the fair and the attendance will be the
largest. The best races of the week will
be run and trotted. The base ball game
between the Detroits and St. Pauls will
occur in the morning rain or shine. This
will be the best game of ball ever wit
messed in the state, and great many
have come to see that alone. The
awards of the baby show will be made
also.

LAUHER AND CIIIZEN.

The letter from Senator Robertson which we
printed on Sunday morning contained evidence
that the action Of the Westminster County Re
publican Committee had produced Il profound
impression upon his mind In that letter he
formally pledged himself to vote for the Judicial
Sales bill and the Police Magistrates bill, un-
amended. and disclosed becoming anxiety TO
satisfy his constituents at all points during the
rest OF the session. In the incisive resolutions
of the committee, expressing the convictions and
wishes Of Wcslchcster Republicans, Senator Rob
crtSon was not named. but IT is as clear to him
as it IS to everybody else that the condemnation
and the warning were expressly intended for his
benefit His course has dspleascd the people of
his district, they have told him in unmstak-
able terms, and they will watch him closely TO
the last moment Of his term.
We also derive from Senator RobcrsOn's letter
the impression that he is firmly resolved TO un-
dertake the painful task Of vindicating his honor
by bringing Il libel suit against 'Thc New York
Press" which has practically accused him Of cor
ruption. II is an important matter that this
grave charge should be thoroughly tried and that
the whole truth whatever it may be, should be
revealed. But while the Senator's desire TO So
cure the services Of exJudge Robertson for this
purpose IS quite natural, we heartily commend
the atter's refusal to take the case In his com
munication to The Tribune announcing his pur-
pose TO return the retainer which he had not re-
ceved when he wrote exJudge Robertson said
at would be manifestly improper for me under
"the circumstances to bring the desired action
II deem the reform measures now pending at
albany Of so much Importance that / would do
nothing that by any possibility might initiate
against their passage" That Is the attitude OF

HyGTENIC INSTRUCTION ~ SCHOOLS

school children shall be Systematically instructed

The law was passed in obedience TO Il strong
general sentiment and there is reason TO suppose
that the advantage Of such knowledge rs il was
meant to secure TO the young Is more and more
clearly recognized by a constantly increasing
majority Of citizens Similar laws exist in near
IL all the States, and where they are most thor
ouchlv enforced their utility is most fully ac
knowlcdccd In Ncw-York the purpose Of the
enactment Is 10 4 great extent defeated, owing
f. the want Of Y penalty for its avoidance TO
roctifv This defect and TO extend M well rs raise
the standard Of hygicnic instruction in the
schools. a bill was framed pcrfccting the existing
law in some particulars and adding 10 it the pro
vision that no share Of the school fund shall be
maid 10 any school until the responsible author-
ties have made and placed in tho proper hands
an affidavit certifying that the law has been
faithfully obcyed.
This bill has passed the Assembly by a hand
some ma iority and will soon come mp for pass
acc in the Senate upon n favorable report from
the Committee on Literature. We do not Know
that there Is any serious opposition, ana th"r"
