An Exchange Of Compliments.

Viroqua and vicinity people did the
right honorable thing by our northern
neighbors by attending in great numbers
the Sparta fair held last week Thurs.
day was Viroqua and LA Crosse day,
and the fair and city folk at the berry
center" had TO deal with the greatest
assemblage of visitors that they have
known for years. The regular train
from this city had attached FIVE passen-
ger coaches, which were well filled be-
fore leaving Viroqua, and the crowd
was SO swelled at Westby and Cashton
that standing room was at premium.
The city band enlivened matters at each
station and throughout the day COM
| manded attention of the great crowds
and made for the organization a reputa-
tion for fine music, appearance in heat
| uniform and otherwise added di ignity to
+, the town and the crowd they accom-
panied In the evening. in the public
streets, the band gave II concert every
number in the long program receiving
rounds of applause. On the whole. we
believe that it was the most eredi itahle
fair we have ever attended in Sparta.
The show in stock was excellent, floral
halt well filled and great number of
concessions must have assisted material
ly to give the association a big financial
boost. As might be expected the early
date made it impossible TO have large
display of farm products The racing,
half big field of horses was present,
was not above the average. The astest
race WAS won by w. II Loggy with his
PAGER Levarth. best time 2:19l. w. p.
Gorsline won first honors in the 2;25
| pace with his Mable Star, best time
2:254; also taking third place in the 2 :30
trot with his Alley Meg. George John.
son got pieces of the running purses
with his horses
But the greatest attraction Tor the
| fair was the ball game between Ls
| Crosse and Cashton clubs, and it was q
contest that excited attention from
| start to finish. Not until the last mar
had crossed home plate in the closing
side of the eleventh inning was it surt
whi,h club had the game. Cashtor
! demonstrated its metal and ability tC
| play bali at every turn of the game, an6
At is little remarkable how diligently
the big, strong La Crosse sluggers wer,
kept working Co maintain their reputa
tion. With fifteen years of constan
playing, with well selected timber, LII
Crosse never met harder competitor
With all the cunning known to an olC
| organization the score stood 8 TO il
favor of La Crosse, and the great crow,
was given an excellent exhibition of bal
| playing.

The County Fair 10 Two Weeks.

Get you ready, all who believe in
making the county fair what it should
be-the annual festival of the farm aud
home when farmers and town folks
cougregate to rejoice over abundant har-
vest, make comparison of crops, the
home and dairy, and show their best
animals This is what the origin of
fairs meant. Let the annual county
fair, which il due in two weeks, be a
fulfillment of the old creed. Let the
desire for display of best things be the
potent factor instead of the grab for the
almighty dollar.
Officers Of the society are making all
efforts within their command 70 have
the coming fair creditable in all respects.
In amusements there will be many aside
from the big racing program. A purse
Of $50 each will be held up for ball and
band tournament. The big stock auction
sale for three days will attract wide
spread attention.
The CENSOR has not space TO partic-
ularize all the good things but will tell
in detail next week.
In the meantime let the farmer, mer.
chant mechanic, stock raiser and house
wife prepare something for the big fair.

The Town of Globe Lays Aside Its
 Municipal Toga.

On Monday last says the Silver Belt. the board of supervisors took up the consideration of the petition to dislncorporate the town of Globe, and after careful scrutiny and comparison with the town tax roll and listening to the arguments of opposing counsel. they arrived at d decision-the only possible one under the circumstances ordered the disincorporatlon of the town, and appointed Alonzo Bailey trustee to wind up the affairs of the defunct corporation. After striking from the petition the name of every person of whose qualification to sign there was the slightest doubt, the pe- tition was found to contain twenty one names more than the requisite number, or upwards of so per cent of qualified resident taxpayers. and the board had no alternative but to make the order to disincorporate.
