THE LOCAL PAPERs GIFT TO 1Ts Town.
-Ex Governor Francis. OF Missouri, is
quoted as saying: Each year the local paper
gives from $500 to $1,000 in free lines to the
community in which it is located. Noother
agency can or will do this. The editor, in
proportion to his means, does more for bis
town than any other ten men. He ought tn
be supported not because you ike HIM per
sonally, or admire his writing, but because n
local paper is the best investment local
people can make. 1t may not be brilliantly
edited or overcrowded with thought, but
financially it is Of more benefit to the com
munity than the teacher or preacher. I'm
derstand me. l do not mean morally or intel.
lec,ually, but financially"

most favorable auspices on Saturday evening
last, more than four hundred people attend
ing. The attendance on Monday evening
was surprisingly good, as that is usually an
off night The sale OF family and season
tickets has been most gratifying. the people
of the town and vicinity being most liberal
in this direction. The donations have been
beyond expectation in number and value and
altogether there are brightest of promises OF
success.
The entertainments thus far given have
been of a character that must draw crowds;
while they have done their very best in this
direction, those yet to come will have the
bench. OF experience and will grow more and
more entertaining.
The Fair has epchewed the lottery feature
entirely and will IN our Judgment profit
largely thereby The very best Of order has
been preserved and the management ha.
introduced reg ulstions, in some par, innova.
tons. yet all for tie comfort of patrons and
the eventual credit and benefit Of the Fair.
