The Two Fair Associations.
THE BALDWIN FAIR NAMES THE SAME
EXHIBITION DAYS AS THE LIVE

THE BALDWIN FAIR NAMES THE SAM
EXHIBITION DAYS AS THE LIVE
STOCK ASSOCIATION.
The appearance before the City Counc5
on Tuesday night of two lawyers, Col
| VIM. e. Craig and MI. r. S. Ker, respec
lively representing the two Fair corpora
lions now in existence in Staunton. il
ominous of a law suit. The history of
and the facts concerning the two corpora
lions, are so familiar to the public, ant
especially to the readers of the VINDICA
TOR, which has published good deal abou
it, that it would be superfuous to 60 int
it again.
In Col. Craig's argument stress was lait
Oh an ordinance of the city prescribing tina
the new fair shall not interfere, in it,
dates, with the old one, and that by it,
present dates the new fair does interfere
inasmuch as it gets the cream and leaves
the old fair Coming later the SKINNED
milk.
In Mr.. Ker's argument stress was lai6
on the fact that there are twenty-one days
between the dates of the two fairs, a mar
gin that left the question of cream an6
milk unaffected.
Mr.. Heber Ker, Secretary of the new
fair, and MI. T. J. Crowder, director il
the old, also addressed the council.
The members of the council. who, doubt
less, are as heartily tired of the scrimmage
avnI.ybO1u alco nd haa1 .ti " dos
that some common sense arrangement
should be made by which it should be put
an end to, did not act on the matter, but
postponed the unpalatable task till the next
council meeting.
THE BALDWIN DISTRICT FAIR NAMES THE
SAME DAYS. "a -
At a meeting of the Directors of the
Baldwin District Fair Association held on
Tuesday last, and presided over by Vice
President, W. A. Ruff of Rockbridge, the
date for the exhibition this fall was fixed
at Sept. 10, IL, II and 13-the same date as
fixed by the Live Stock Association.
Mr.. John H. Parkins, the Oldest mem
Der OF the Board in point OF continuous
service, was elected President OF the AS
ISOLATION.
We learn that the Secretary. Capt. G.
Julian Pratt. leaves for Morganton, Pa.
in day OIL so to arrange for adopting the
mode Of exhibition adopted there.
The Directors of the Live Stock AssOci-
alton meet tomorrow, when the situation
will he considered.
1t is very clear if this cross purpose bus
mess goes on, the annual agricultural exhi-
billions in Augusta will be so effectually
killed that they will not revive in five
years. There should be an arbitration of
the matter and that speedily. 1t is not
with the people question Of who is right
OF who is wrong, but how shall matters be
adjusted so as to have at least one good
fair.

difference. The various details as in the

About the only pronounced difference is
that the oval inclosing the vignette of

is about one-thirty second of an inch wider
and about one eighth of al inch longer than
in the genuine.
A counterfeit ten dollar note of the nat

The friends of Mr.. j. G. Whitlock, the
family grocer, near the corner of New and
Court House streets, were surprised and
grieved to learn on Saturday that the stress
OF business had forced him to make a deed
of conveyance to secure debt of 81 ,465 OF
due Bowling, SPOTS & Co. Mr.. Whitlock
has been, since his removal to Staunton,
closely attentive to his business and it was
thought he was prospecting, but the long,
dead season that accompanied the small
poX scare and which strained so many
firms with large resources, proved more
than he could so through. He will have
the sympathy of his many friends.
