MAKE READY THE EXHIBITS.

1t is less than three weeks before the
State Fair, for which during six
months past the good people of this
city have been making elaborate prep
arations. will be in full swing. At least
in less than three weeks the day as
signed for the formal opening of the
Fair will have been reached. 1t rests
with the many hundreds of exhibitors
whether the opening day shall see
everything in readiness to receive Sa-
vannah's thousands of visitors, or
whether on that day the exhibits in
every department shall be in a state of
huddled confusion. Those who are to
make exhibits should have them placed
in the buildings ready for the opening
on Nov. 6, and as long before that time
as they can conveniently and without
damage to the exhibits themselves be
received.
This is a matter that the Fair man
agement cannot control. The manage
ment may exhort and implore and even
threaten, but the only penalty it can
impose is the refusal to permit the ex-
hibit to be displayed. AS it is the wish
and purpose of the management to
have every interesting exhibit for
which space can possibly be granted,
the enforcement of its only remedy
against the annoyance caused by pro-
crastinating exhibitors would be biting
off its nose to spite its face, with a
vengeance.
It is for the exhibitors to prevent
this annoyance and make the success
and interest Of the Fair assured from
the first moment its gates are opened
to the public. II is believed they will
respond promptly. and that when the
gates and doors are opened it will be
upon completed exposition.

POLITICS AND ATHLETICS.

An item in New York paper says
that Mr.. Edward NJ. Shepard, the
Democratic nominee for Mayor. is
athlete for the struggle that is before
him. Not a robust man, he has been
compelled TO adopt and live up to
regimen that will conserve and add to
his strength and endurance, pretty
much as a pugilist has to do in antici-
patton of a mill" in the prize ring.
With Mr.. Shepard lately it has been a
matter of early to bed and early to
rise, with careful dieting and an album
dance of physical exercise in the
waking hours by way of acquiring
wind" and staying power. His an
tagonist, Mr.. Low, is much the strong
er man physically, but he, too. has
adopted a course of training for the
campaign.
Strong lungs strong legs and strong
body are almost as necessary in mod
ern politics, where the constituency Is
large, as strong mind and strong ideas.
The candidate might be ever so elo-
QucHl anu lOANCluA III al Dnl
he would be at a serious disadvantage
If his voice were not powerful enough
to carry" to the far corners of large
hall, or to be heard well at an OPEN
air meeting. And the candidates ply
steal condition must be such as to en-
able him at all times to respond to a
demand for a speech or his attendance
upon a committee or ward meeting
1t would be well nigh fatal to can
didates hopes to fail by reason of
physical weakness to keep appoint
ments with the voters and party com,
mittees.
Political campaigning is hard and
exhausting work, especially III a great
and populous city like New York,
where there are a thousand and one de-
tails demanding personal attention,
and 1.-The enemy is constantly digging
pitfalls and constructing ambuscades
That is why Mr.. Shepard and Mr.. Low
are "in training" as assiduously as IL
they were each to play center-rush in
a football match.

The late due had no children, and his
fortune passes to his great-nephews

the Duchesse Dues. An interesting

There are four territories of this
Union that for several years have been
clamoring for admission to the sister
hood of states, with full rights and full
dignities. They are Oklahoma, Indian
Territory, Arizona and New Mexico
The first had at the last census 419,536
people and now probably has many
more. The least populous of the quar-
tette, Arizona, had a population of 122,-
931 at the last census. When it is re-
membered that this is at least three
times the population of Nevada, which
has been clothed in the dignity Of
statehood for more than a third of a
century, it is possible to understand
that there is some justice and right in
the territories claims.

ment that Justice Childs has ordered

Mr.. Slee also says that the justice has
