A lar5e and enth usiastic meet
ing of the executive committee
was held Monday night at Mr..
Zcwadski's office to hear reports
and perfect plans for the barbecue
and the horse swapping day, Oct.
goth.
Chairman Campbell called on
Mr.. Zewadski, chairman of the
entertainment committee, who
said that Mr.. Mays of Monticello
was compelled to decline his invi-
tation to speak at the barbecue,
because of business interests at
home that he could not delegate
to another.
Col. G.. l.. Fildes, the Mark
Twain of Gainesville, was COM
PEELED to decline the honor of ad-
dressing the people of Marion, be-
cause he was prosecuting attOr
ney of Alachua county and court
would be in session on that occa-
sion. But a happy thought Sc
cured the services of a speaker in
the person of Col. T. p. Lloyd Of
Inverness. The Star predicts an
address from this able legal gen
tlemen and eloquent advocate of
the people rights with an grafton
worthy of their closest attention.
David S. Williams was substi-
tuted as chairman of the tobacco
exhibits, vice Charles Peyser,
whose business would not permit
him to give the proper attention
to same. He said his committee
had held a well attended meeting
Saturday night and he was salts
fled the exhibit would be feature
of the day and one worthy OF the
attention of all those who were
growing or contemplated grow
ing tobacco.
In this connection it was unani-
mously agreed that Mr.. l.. j. Me-
dero would give one Of his "home
talks on the growing Of tobacco,
and none are more capable by ex-
perience along this line to do SO
than this splendid Cuban gentle
man. 1t is proposed to have him
prepare small seed bed along
side of the speakers stand so as
to fully illustrate his pertinent
and practical remarks.
Mr.. NJ. Fishel, who is the ac-
knowedged secretary Of this
movement, with the assistance of
Mr.. Chambliss and Mr.. Camp
bell, has done excellent work in
providing the "sineWs Of war;
for the occasion. He made a
gratifying report, but there are
others who may give and should
give, and we trust that they may
see the true purposes Of this gala
day, open their hearts to an en-
lightened and public spirited view
of the case and do their part as
they see the way clear to aid
themselves and their fellow citi.
zenS.
Mr.. H. (. Smith, chairman Of
the barbecue committee, also
spoke encouragingly Of the worl
of his committee. Mr.. Mcintosh
of the tournament committee
said everything was in apple pi'
order and the gallant knights
were arduously practicing for th'
rich prizes.
