COUNTY FAIRS MUST REORGANIZE.
Another Important Opinion Handed
Down by Attorney General
Remley.

The different county fair organiza-
tions of the state will nearly all be eff
fected by the recent opinion of Attor-
ney General Remley. There are l13 so
cieties in the state and most of them
will be compelled to reorganize in or
der to receive the annual appropria-
tons from the state as they have in the
past.
A law was passed January %, 1857,
which is still in force, and under which
each society is entitled to an annual
appropriation OF 5000 provided they
raise the same amount for legitimate
purposes of the society. According to
the constitution of the societies any
person may become member by sigh
ing constitution and paying sum
determined by the association. For
40 years past members have received
tickets to the fair for these dues, and
this has been considered as part of
the sum collected as actual membership
fees. A new affidavit has been made
out by the state auditor in accordance
with the Attorney Generals opinion
which will require nearly all of the So
cieties to entirely reorganize the basis
of their membership fees.
The body of the affidavit is as follows:
