The weather last week was any,
thing but favorable to the county fair
held at Jefferson and the attendance
suffered greatly in consequence. The
exhibition in all departments was first
class, in many respects above that Of
former years. There were some ex-
cellent entries in the horse races, but
the muddy track prevented any fast
work. Fort Atkinson won first place
in the baseball tournament, defeating
both Palmyra and Jefferson.
The free siIverites held a meeting
at the city hall Monday evening and
fair audience greeted the speaker,
Major Charles H. Gardner, who scored
everybody and everything not labeled
Bryan to the queens taste. The bolt
ing gold Democracy, especially the
local and state wings, came in for their
share, the Major intimating that the
cause was in their pockets and not
their heads. Cleveland was referred
to as the greatest political disorganizer
in history and Villas was accused of at
tempting to build up political HER
archy. The speaker also said that any
person who maintained through
newspaper the position the editor Of
The Weltbuerger does and refused to
vote for Mckinley is "either a scoun-
drel or fool"
