LETTER TO RUFFLES & NICHOLS
VIEWPOINT.

NEWTOWN.
 Dear Sirs: Do you mix your own paints yet? You can do better. Zinc IS hard to mix: requires machinery. Mixing by hand is slow and unSatiS- factory work; and, in mixing lead and zinc, you have nothing to go by; both being white, when are they mixed? Also, zinc should be ground into the lead: not simply mixed in, but ground in.
 Buy Devoe lead and zinc. It is the right proportion and thoroughly ground in linseed oil; nothing else, but color and dryer.
 The colors are uniform; ready to dip the brush in. Costs less and wears twice as long as shop-mixed paint.
 Yours truly,
 68 F. w. DevOe & Go.

LOCAL AFFAIRS. THE VIEWPOINT FAIR. PASTE THIS IN YOUR HAT.

On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs. day, October 1, } and 3, the annua
 fair and cattle show of the Newtown Ronald park. Most of our readers are already acquainted with this fact but we want to impress it on their minds so that nothing but an earthquake shock or tidal wave will cause them to forget it. The show this year will be good one, worth the price of ride to the park and the ad- mission fee after one gets there. It will be an Old-faShiOned cattle show, such an one as the State Board of Agriculture recommends, but lacking some of the spectacular features on which some agricultural societies have come to rely on largely for their success. There won t be any elephants climbing trees or giraffes playing football or Siamese jugglerS walking on their eye broWS at the Newtown fair. These things attract the curious but they don't add anything to the value of an agricultural fair. On the other hand anyone who wants to see fine collect ion of cattle, horses, swine, poultry, vegetables, fruits, flowers and other legitimate features of an Old-faShiOned fair and cattle show will make no mis- take in visiting Ronald Park the first three days of October. The exhibits cellent in quality: Lovers of high class poultry will find collection there which is bound to interest them Music will be furnished by the Wheeler & Wilson band of Bridgeport.
 The officers of the society will soon be hard at work in the endeavor to make this the biggest and best fair that has ever been held on Ronald park. They deserve success and with favOring conditions will doubtless Se- cure it. How great the success de- operate shown by the residents in NewtOwn and surrounding towns. The larger the number of exhibits the more attractive the fair will be: the larger the attendance the more SatiS- factory will be the financial results. The agricultural society is maintained, as it was organized, in the interest of the agricultural community. Any success that it may achieve is for the best interests of that community. A considerable percentage of the pOpu- lation of NeWtOwn is engaged in agri- culture or kindred pursuits. With these facts in mind it becomes evident that the Newtown public owes a duty to the agricultural society. duty which it should not hesitate to fulfil. The society should have the most generous patronage, the most hearty support from every element in the community. That patronage and SUD- port have little chance for expression save at the annual fair. It is a priv ilege and a duty to attend the fair; are you among those ready to accept tha privilege and fulfil that duty? If not, why not?

In April Governor Tryon left New
Berne with about 800 men and some
artillery On May 18th more troops
Joined him. Governor Tryon and
these troops encamped on the banks
of the Alamance The next day, on
the same stream, the ROYAL army en-
camped near the Regulators, who had
assembled in great force.
On the 18th petition was brought
to the Governor from the Regulators
asking that they should not fight. so
there would be no blood shed. Gov
ernor Tryon replied that he would
answer by the middle Of the next day.
The next morning at daybresk Gov
ernor Tryon led his forces, upwards
of about LOO, in line of battle. He
sent messenger over telling the
others that he had done everything in
his power to redress their wrongs,
and would give them one hour to
decide whether they would fight or
not. They replied that war was all
they wanted. That was not at all
what Governor Tryon expected, so he
told them to 60 away in one hour.
They cried Fire. After fighting
awhile the Regulators fled, leaving 20
dead and several wounded. The loss
of the Royal forces was 81. Thus
ended the battle of Alamance, the
first blood shed in the United States
against English rulers.
