Projected Revival of The Paris
Fair.

IHE gentlemen who are circulating
the subscription paper for the revival oi
the Paris Fair have met with consider
able success, having secured forty-fve
pledges to take 800 shares. One gen.
tleman said he would take four share.
when ninety-six other shares were sub.
scrloed tor-so that is equivalent tC
torty-nine shares already taken, as none
OF the money will be due till the whole
amount is pledged-one hundred $1OC
shares-a total of $4,000. This amount
Is necessary to buy the grounds from its
| recent purchasers and for rebuilding the
grand-stand destroyed by fire, and other
necessary Improvements.
The present holders of the old fair
grounds have signifed their willingness
to surrender the grounds at any time
within year to the reorgsnizers of the
fair at the purchase price, and have
agreed to not mar the grounds or make
any alterations during that interval that
would damage the grounds for fair pur-
poses. This is an exceedingly good offer
as the grounds are easily susceptible to
subdivision for building lots and the
purchasers could realize a nice advance
on their investment, but they.ar willing
to surrender the grounds to help the fair
project along.
A more propitious time or place could
not be selected for establishing a fair,
because manv of the fairs il this section
Of the State have passed out of existence
and there is a strong popular demand
for this class of amusement Turnpikes
are free now and the attendance would
naturally be much larger as a conse-
quence. The money formerly paid for
toll could be used for the small admis-
sion fee to the grounds. There are many
other good and sensible reasons why
every one should do what they can to
help start the fair again.
The merchants we'll know that the
fair az formerly held, in the first of Sep
IChOoLJ Woo dAW oyo q SAOdC obluIU1du
to trade in all branches, and at a
time when trade would otherwise be
slow. Many dollars would flow to the
Golfers of the retail trades if the fair is
revived that are now boarded or spent
elsewhere as there is 90 special induce
ment for strangers to come here or to
spend their money in pursuit of happi-
ness at the mild designations afforded at
county fair.
The News believes the whole amount
will soon be subscribed and believes
that it can be made a dividend paying
investment if properly managed-which
it will be.
Messrs. G. NJ. Thomas or J. M. Hall
will receive your subscription if you
want to give substantial aid to the
movement.
