STATE FAIR SPECIAL DAYS.
indianapolis to Have One Set Apart
Visit TO the Grounds.


The executive committee of the State
Board of Agriculture was busy all day yes
terday with details of the arrangements for
the coming fair. The four big days of the
show will each have a special feature.
Tuesday being chidren's day, Wednesday
Indianapolis day. Thursday Governors day
and Friday military day. Mason j. Niblack
yesterday reported that Governor Tanner,
of Illinois, had promised to be present with
his staff Governor Mount, upon his return
to-day will issue personal invitations to the
Governors of Ohio, Michigan and Kentucky
and an effort will be made to have all the
Governors of adjoining States present on
Thursday.
Much attention was given to the subject
of military day and General Carnahan was
called into consultation. Upon his advice it
was determined to arrange for prize COM
pany drill of infantry with a first prize
of $500 and a second prize of 5000. An effort
will also be made to persuade the Light Ar
tillery, the champion artillery company or
the country. TO give an eXhlbltlon drill II
is believed that nearly all the companies or
the Indiana National Guard will participate
in the prize drill.
Yesterday afternoon, at the invitation Of
the executive committee of the state board,
the committees from the Board of Trade
and Commercial Club appointed TO repre-
sent their respective organizations in the
agitation of an Indianapolis day at the
state fair, visited the fair grounds and
viewed the improvements that nave recent
Nv been made by the board. The commit
tees were struck with the plans for running
the street cars into the grounds as pointed
out by the board. The cars will hereafter
enter the grounds and unload passengers
at point within one hundred and nifty feet
of the west end of the amphitheater. me
track will be inclosed by fence inside the
grounds and passengers will purchase their
tickets at depot to be erected In the US
ual way. The visitors found the grounds
looking bright and clean and the buildings
in an excellent state of repair. All the
buildings except the horse stalls nave re,
Gently been given a coat or white leau ana
look very inviting. Some of the roofs nave
been painted red. The grandstand or ann
phitheater has been repaired and Strength
ened and the seats treated TO a coat Oh
paint The Womans building mas peeh
oyerhauled and looks like new structure.
The committees found the track In superb
condition. e..
Various schemes have been suggested 1or
making Indianapolis day an event of more
than usual interest. The committees from
| the commercial bodies believe that rate
of one cent a mile on all railroads Leading
into the city would be one of the best tea-
| lures that could be advertised. 1t has also
| been suggested that merchants adVertlSe
| for Indianapolis day reductlon or ~ per
| cent. on ali cash purchases. Some ispeciaI
| features will be procured for the falr
| grounds on Indianapolis day and 1t is be
| lieyed THAI merchants and manu1actukeIIss

Gwen you and y,
And the word was used by rhymer bold,
Whose poems were sooner written than sold
CThough now we know, since we have been told
That editors will buy)
Oh the words we waste in our rhyming haste
AS Poesys favor we sue;
When if had known the of know
AS know it can be used so,
Though then we thought we knew about know
AS much know of knew
We wouldn't be stripped to our skin so bare
If we 'precated know"
We'd be a bone and a hank of hair,
With rag to finish the metaphor rare
If we'd jugge with know in style so fair
AS much as we know of ''knew'O
We could poems write in style so bright
with occasional you and p
With our lines strung with know all bedecked
and bedight
IF we knew about know now know we

And to fill in with you and I.')
No, no. now we know, that know" don't you

And knowing and knowing till we've vertigo
That the public will know into raptures to go
At stuff which know is rot.
And it isn't the blame, for the PAROLES tame

Could be twisted in manner so apropos

to support ticket and platform opposed to
that nominated by the Blackburn people,
which will be named by a convention to
be held in Louisville July IA. One of the
charges in the address against the Black
burn convention is that the continued dec
laration for silverism and fiatism will retard
the coming of prosperity. 1t is as follows:
Declarations like those recently made in
Frankfort can do harm, by prolonging to
the extent of their influence, the lack of
confidence of the world in our national in
tegrity and credit, and can thereby prolong
the effects of the recent panic they produced
and delay the return of prosperity to them
selves and to others

The Legislature of Pennsylvania has
passed an act requiring the employers of
persons not residents of the United States
to deduct from the wages of such employees
the taxes which may be assessed against
them. A bill is also pending which requires
every employer of foreign-born and unnat-
uralized labor to pay tax of two cents
a day for each person of that description
employed. This, particularly the last prop
osition, is novel legislation, but when the
law discriminates in favor of American cit
liens a stop may be put to the custom
which prevails in some parts of the country
of substituting cheaper foregn-born labor
which does not intend to remain in the
country for that which does. The tax of
two cents a day is not sufficient to make
the law effective.

LITERARY CLUBS AND THE WESTERN
WRITER'S.

paragraph floating around in the East
ern papers notes the recent meeting at
Warsaw of the Indiana Union of Literary
Clubs and adds: THE union nun. bers
among its members almost all of the lit
erary men of the West" This shows that
the late gathering is being confused with
the Western Association of Writers, which
is very different institution, and will not
relish the mistake. For the Writers. though
they may individually belong to so-called
| literary clubs as a side issue. do not re-
gard those organizations as being literary
in any proper sense, that is to say, in the
sense in which they, the Writers, are lit
! erary. The clubs browse about the field of
| literature, absorb it in such portions as
they are capable of doing breathe it's
charmed atmosphere, contemplate it and
write papers about what other people have
accomplished there. The members may
and in fact they do, fondy fancy that
they. too, are literary, as the club name
| implies, but the Writers know that they
are misguided and deceived, and that the
i term rightfully belongs to themselves. For
| they, the Writers, produce literature, or, at
least, attempt to do so-the genuine article
not the imitation. They offer original
| poems and essays and tales to the world
and do not content themselves with compi-
| lations and rehashes of other peoples
books and ideas after the fashion of the
| clubs In short they are not amateurs
mere kindergarten workers, but profession
ais actual or prospective; which is to say
that the Writers get their pieces printed;
or, if they don't, it is not their fault, but
that. of stupid and unappreciative editors.
They, as producers. do their part, at least
and offer their lucubrations to the public
Since it so happens that the public can be
reached only through the editorial
intermediary, it sometimes happens that
the literary lights not always permitted
to twinkle when they would. The most of
the Writers, it is but just to say, however,
are glitterng luminaries in the Western
literary sky. They not only get things
printed. but, greatest triumph of ALL get
paid for them. This last marks, perhaps
the greatest distinction between them and
members of literary clubs for the latter
may, under certain conditions, get into
print, but editor in his right mind ever
so far as forgot himself and his duty to the
helpless public as to pay for a club paper.
The Union of Indiana Clubs met at War
saw, read pieces at each other, and dis
cussed profound topics. It did not include
the literary men of the West because,
though men are admitted and their attend
ance even solicited, the organization is
composed mostly of women. The Writers,
men and women, will meet at Warsaw
little later and will also read pieces and dis
cuss things, but they will say little about
being literary, because when they represent
literature in the original, when they pro-
duce it at first hand, when they are letters
personified, they do not need a label. But.
nevertheless, they desire it to be understood
that no mere union of clubs need seek to
share their honors.

There are so many conflicting reports
about Spain and Cuba that one cannot be
sure about anything; but the latest report,
to the effect that President Mckinley has
been assured of the removal of Weyler, and
that Spain will seek to end the war by Of
fering Cuba local self-government, and that
leading Cubans are in favor of that policy,
Is one conservative people wish to be true,
for the reason that Cuba is not capable of
maintaining popular government by itself.
Such is said 10 be the view of the President,
and such must be the opinion of those who
have informed themselves regarding the
Cuban Junto and the inhabitants of the
ISLAND Being unable to terminate the war
by the cruel methods of Weyler, even Spain
should have little wisdom regarding the
next best thing to do.
