Special to Times Republican.
Eldora, Sept. 16-The Hardin county
fair is over and as the dust and mud
settle few facts are revealed, viz:
The entries before the fair Indicated
big exhibit, but only a few entries We're
made during the fair and the exhibit in
the art and floral halls was light. The
exhibit of swine and fine horses was
small. Some fine cattle We're here. The
field Of horses was small, but some good
races We're had. The program was
good. The performance of Harry La
Rose was fine and alone we'll worth the
price of admission.
The receipts from the gate and grand
stand We're as follows:
Wednesday ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 1880
Thursday Observation-Disclosures. 1,7S5OO
friday ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. 10000
The receipts from privileges with the
above will aggregate over $4,000. All
Expenses and premiums will be paid in
full
The attendance Thursday was greatly
retarded by the cold, threatening
weather. In fact 1T rained until about
II p. M, after which the sun shone and
the races We're called. The receipts FRI
day We're larger than for previous years.
The Ellis band Wednesday, the Ell
dora band Thursday and the Bethel
band Friday rendered good music.
Some criticism of the officers is made
because there We're not more entries in
the speed and art hall departments. 1t
is stated that the president spent his
time advertising his business instead of
working for the success of the fair, and
also that the secretary did not suffi-
GENTLY advertise the fair, but it is a
fact that those who kick the most live
in Eldora. No one has any reason to
complain. The receipts more than pay
all expenses The attendance was big,
Notwithstanding the weather. Hardin
county can congratulate itself upon a
successful fair. when most other county
i fairs are failures. and all should get to-
igether for a bigger fair next year.

The Public Library.

Although by terms of my contract l
was to commence this examination from
April LIST, 1895, l found it necessary in
several branches of the cities business
to go back OF that date in order to OBJ
tain rrect statement of the depart
ments account which was the case in
this department; and herewith attached
and marked Exhibit g, is statement of
the public library from the date of its
organization to the present time.
This institution was organized in
April, 1894, under the state laws OF
Minnesota, and the common council
have appropriated the sum of 1900 per
year from its general fund for its main
tenance. Although organized in the
early part of 1894 it was not until De.
cember of that year that the council was
able to appropriate any money for their
maintenance. and this was done by an
order on the city treasurer payable in
April of 1895, and in consequence of this
delay in obtaining the funds necessary
for their support, the board have been
obliged to anticipate its appropriation
from year to year by borrowing the re-
quired funds, and the city has paid the
interest in addition to the $4,000. Up
to this year the rate of interest paid
was per cent, but the board have now
succeeded in obtaining funds at 4 per
