MIIDwINTER FAIR.

ed for this evening, at the rooms
of the Business Mems club, to
take into consideration the de.
tails of the proposed Midwinter
fair, is one that should be well
attended. Not only the home
manufacturers, but the retailers
of every description are interest.
ed in this movement, as it is di-
rectly in the line of that which
will secure for them increased
patronage this winter, and if sue
cessful will continue that patron
age, or Il large share of it, for all
coming time. 1t is the intention
of the managers of the Home In
dustiral campaign to make this
Midwinter fair the browning glO-
nv of the series of local gift and
display meetings that have been
held in this city during the past
three months. This Midwinter
fair will be an exposition of Il
week or two duration. in which
not only our manufactured pro
ducts will be placed before the
thousands who will attend. but
direct encouragement and promo
ton given to the encouragement
of our retail trade, drygoOds, gro
ceries and all else. There is a
large foreign. that is outside of
the city, trade done in our retail
shops and the principles that ap-
ply to the factories and small ere
ative industries apply to this
trade also. 1t is the intention of
this Midwinter fair management
to promote this trade and bring
it under the operation of the
Home Industry principle. To ar
range for this is the aim of the
meeting called tonight. There is
no one interested whose pres
ence is not needed. There is no
industry in the city to which this
idea of home protection by home
patronage does not apply. To
home insurance, loan companies.
building societies. schools and all
else. What is needed is a united
effort on the part of all our citi-
zenS of every class to put the
work undertaken Squarely and
strongly upon its feet in the way
decided upon in the wisdom of
the men who are assembled to
carry forward the Midwinter fair.
The interest that has been taken
in this matter heretofore. in the
earlier industrial meetings, af-
fOrds good ground for the belief
that this meeting tonight will be
thrOnged with the live, wide
awake business men of the city.
Election eXcitements no longer
absorb the attention of the peO-
pie. The great contest for the
control of the government is set
tied on the side of sound finance
and protection to the industries
of the nation. In line with this
is the movement to devise and
execute for the protection and
promotion of our own industries
and trade. A rousing meeting is
looked for tonight, and it is hop,
ed that the expectation will not
be disappointed. The success of
this approaching fair will depend
upon the general interest devel
oped from the beginning and up
on the enthusiasm with which il
is started. Start it with a rusf
and it will continue to run will
increasing celebrity to the success
full end.
