MITCHELL AND the STATE FAIR.

MITCHELL AND THE STATE FAIR.
The people Of Mitchell appreciate the
favorable mention which this town has
received at the hands OF many news
papers over the state in connection
with the location of the state fair. 1t
is specially gratifying TO note that the
expression of papers published in this
land district. comprising the south
eastern group of counties, has been very
cordial in Mitchell's favor. We think
the same may be said OF the Chamber
lain land district and we do not over
look the expressions of friendship for
Mitchell among the northern and north
western counties.
Mitchell people can point with no
small degree OF pride TO the record OF
state fairs which have been held in
their town. The one held here in 1887
was in every way a success and paid
all its obligations in full. IN 1888 the
attendance was by great odds the larg.
est ever seen in the state and the man
agement was not only able to pay all its
premiums and other expenses, but
came out with a surplus Of several
h,oadred dollars. Mitchell people have
always been united on matters Of this
kind, another evidence of which is the
unqualified success which they made o.
the Corn Palace Expositions, held ir
more recent years
Mitchcll's railway facilities are frs
class making her rather more acces
sible than any other point in the state
Her location is central to the grea
agricultural and live stock region OF the
commonwealth She is the town tina
the exhibitors and visitors will rally tt
in supporting state fair to greater
extent than any other town in the
state. While the location OF the fail
here for term OF years would be es
teemed by Mitchell as great favor. w
wish to impress upon those who have
the matter in hand the fact that ou
greatest claims are that Of being abl
to make the fair a success

In connection with the silver memoir
ial which was being considered by the
state senate, member offered series
of burlesque resolutions, the propose Of
which was to treat the silver idea with
derision. Gentlemen who adopt such
tactics assume that the silver advocates s
object is to enact laws making silver
worth $l.29 per ounce" and they argue
from this that it would be equally rea-
sonable to think OF legislating wheat
up to 81 per bushel. Here is one Of the
resolutions offered, which was intended
to be smart and funny:
THAT in its far-reaching wisdom
congress may restore to wheat its his
toric price of one dollar per bushel,
and the time honored yield of thirty
bushels per acre, and that in view OF
the low price OF other commodities,
whisky may also be restored to the
old-fashioned price of our daddies,
cents per glass;"
Doubtless, the gentleman who sprung
the above resolution and other similar
ones upon the legislature in the spirit
OF burlesque, thinks he has demolished
the theory of silver coinage by the
power of smile. But in this he is mis-.
taken, for he ridicules himself more
than he does the cause of bimetallism,
by advertising his ignorance OF that
s,biant
