THE PUBLIC PROTESTS.
Secretary Pogue Says Fair Manage
ment Was Imposed Upon.
MOST OF THEATTRAc TONS MEaiToRIoUs
The Announcements Made in Front Of The
Little Midway and Others We're Coarse
aid Vulgar Gen. Toon Comp!-
ments the Crowd Thursday.

That the Fair was great success this
year all admit, and that there We're
more vulgar and mediocre attractions
on the Midway than ever before is gen
orally recognized
Yesterday the attractions cleared out,
a train load going direct to Columbia,
S. c., and others to Winston and Well
don.
While there were many meritorious
attractions on the Midway, and many
that were harmless and innocent fakes.
there were seven or eight obscene and
,dsreputable shows that should not be
tolerated again. The Fair management
has no way of finding out the character
of these shows before booking them,
and doubtless less was known after their
arrival.
Some CT these attractions made feeble
attempts to be wicked, but that which
is most condemned is the character of
the announcement made from the
front, which innocent women and
children passing through the
Fair grounds We're forced to hear.
This class of attractions and the liber-
ties taken in heralding them to the pub
lie has been severely condemned. A
gentleman said yesterday:
II think the Fair management should
protect the public from such disrepu-
table attractions They had not the
least merit to recommend them to pub
!. lie favor, save their vileness.
Gen, T. F. Toon, the Superintendent
of Public Instruction. spoke along the
same line. Some of these attractions
were meritorious, he said, but many
Of them ought not to have had a place
in the FAIR They taught anything but
that which we ought to teach the peo-
pie" Continuing Gen. Toon saidA II
have never seen&a more magnificent
crowd ethan, that of Thursday-one that
/ showed more intelligence and was better
behaved. l noticed an Improvement in
the condition of the people. They were
dressed better and We're more orderly.
/ failed to observe an intoxicated man"
Secretary Joseph E. Pogue realizes
that a radical, change must be made.
He says that some of the shows that
are complained of came to Raleigh well
endorsed and promised to give clean
!, performances and then imposed upon
the management He added;
:. ~. The effect or the MIDWAY mas Deen
to teach the people a great moral les
son. It is fortunate that no enthusiastic
advocates of the moral welfare Of the
community has seen fit to disturb the
shows. Much of the Midway. especially
the dancing and high gaming, has been
extremely offensive to the management,
and while not expelled from the grounds.
it becomes living issue with the man
ayers of the Fair and must be decided
on the side of decency, common sense
and good morals before the next Fair.
There are a plenty of meritorious shows
OF sufficient diversity of character to
furnish Midway that will amuse and
Instruct the public without this pro-
miscuoars racket and Objectionable fea-
lures with which we have unfortunate
ly had to deal during the Fair jus;

THE CRISIS IN GREECE.


The crisis In Greece, which resulted
in the overthrow OF the cabinet, by
the FIRST reports seemed to be of re-
ligl0us, or semi-relglous nature. IN
yolyng the question Of a Bible trans
lation but further light has been shed
upon the occurrence, and it is now
seen to have been of a purely political
nature.
Several years ago, It is explained, the
Bible was translated into modern
Greek, the language spoken by the edu.
Gated classes OF the people, In this
version the grammatical forms as now
current are used, while the words and
infections conform as near as prac-
ticable to the old language. The
translation Is said to have been made
with great care, and it can be readily
understood by all who know either the
modern or the ancient language.
The people Of Greece, however. are
mixed with the slavonic element, and
The language Of the illiterate is corrupt.
