Manager Farnham Says We Don't
Want the State Fair.
P2OTPECTS OF GETTING STAR
POINTER HERE.
A Great Risby Fair One of the Possible
ties of the Future-Why We Don't Want
the State Fair.

| Manager Farnham was seen yesterday
| by representative of the PRESS in re-
gard to rumors that Star Pointer might
appear on the Rigby track this fall. Mr..
Farnhan said 1t was possible that Star
Pointer might come to Rigby If a
thousand dollars could be raised in Port
land to insure the management against
loss in case the gate receipts should not
| be sufficient to pay the purse.
| Mr.. Farnham also said that he thought
John R. Gentry, Joe Patchen and Star
| Pointer to trot single heat. with a
bonus added in case they should break
the record.
In case one of these horses should come
it would be at the time of September or
October meets.
Turning from horses to fairs, Mr.. Farm
ham said he did not think there was the
slightest reason for Lewiston to take
alarm about the State Fair. In his
opinion Portland did not want the fair.
1t had debt of SIP, 5000 or $4,000, which
would have to be lifted if the fair should
come here.
With the New England fair Portland is
far better suited than with a state fair
simply, since the latter must confne it's
exhibits to Maine products. The New
England fair invites all to come and show
their products, with the result that the
exhibits are very fine. And the trotting,
calling together as it does the best horses
in the country, is as..good as can be seen
anywhere.
This year cattle from Canada came
here. They swept the premiums, and
there was some grumbling by local ex-
hibitors. But Mr. Farnham. says that we
should take a broader view than this,
and realize that the coming of such fine
products Of other states or countries helps
to set standards for our people and show
them what they must work up to.
Mr.. Farnham thinks, however, that
there is some doubt about the New Eng
land fair coming here another year. 1t
will depend much, he says, on the atti-
tude of the Portland city government.
and their willingness to bear certain Lex-
penses which he thinks properly belong
to the city to bear.
In case the New England fair should
leave, Mr.. Farnham thinks that Rigby
Fair, open to all the world, would be
preferable to the State Fair, and would
be a successful and valuable fair. 1t
would have to begin with the finest trot-
ting, and then it could attract splendid
exhibits of cattle and other stock-as
good as comes to the New England fair,
if not better. Another year, instead of
one or two herds from Canada there
would be several of the finest in the
Dominion, and the New England and
New York stock would also be here.
