MAKE THE STATE FAM AN ISSUE.
Lincoln People Quietly Moving to
Cnpture the Big Show.

Capture the Big Show.
LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 1S.-(Specal Tele-
gram.)-A joint session was held tonight in
the chapel of the State university of the I'M
proved Stock Breeders and State Swine
Breeders associations. The address of well
come was delivered by Chancellor MacLean,
and response was made by Hon. w H. Whit
more of Omaha. Hon. j. B. Dinsmore read
very interesting paper on the advantages
of the Transmississippi Exposition to the
stock breeding industries of Nebraska.
The State Agricultural society will hold
its first session tomorrow at the chapel of
the University. Quite a number of the men,
bers are already on the ground, and more
are expected tomorrow morning. In this
connection it can be stated that a move is
now on foot among certain Lincoln parties
to quietly work for the permanent location
of the State fair in Lincoln, and to clinch
the matter with the present session of the
legislature. The parties fayoring this move
argue in this way: Omaha has now had the
State fair two years out of the five granted
her by the last session. In 1898, owing to
the fact of the Transmississippi Exposition,
Omaha will not likely hold any State fair
at all Therefore, the Lincoln people be-
lieve that now is the time to move syste-
matically for .he permanent location in Lin
coin, either at the old fair grounds or at
Lincoln park 1t is thought likely that a
bill with this object in view will be intro
duced in the house at an early day, and pro-
vidng for a liberal appropriation.
The thirteenth annual show of he State
Poultry association will begin tomorrow at
