THE COUNTY FAIR.

On account of the large
amount of clerical work required
to properly classify and list the
awards, as made by the judges
in the various departments, we
have been unable to get list of
premiums drawn, for publication
in the DEMOCRAT this week. We
will have it for next week, how
ever.
The least that can be said for
the Second Annual Exhibit of
the Barton County Fair AssOci-
alton, is that it was a success in
every way. The exhibit of horses
and cattle was splendid-would
have been a credit to any State
Fair. There were good hogs
shown also, and although this
season of the year is not the
proper time to show poultry,
there was a very good exhibit in
that line; also the Belgian hare
exhibit was good.
One of the most pleasing de-
partments in the fair, was that
of fresh fruits and canned and
preserved goods. This display
was simply magnificent, and an
eye opener to many of the peo-
pie of this county who have here
= tofore given little attention to
fruits. The apples, pears, peach
es and plums were as fine as we
have seen in state shows.
In the vegetable department
watermelons and pumpkins pre-
dominated, although there were
samples of fine wheat, potatoes,
etc.
The exhibit in the ladies de-
partment was the star attrac-
tion-especially to the ladies.
There we're many valuable col
lections of paintings, drawings,
needle work and all the pretty
fancy things which delight the
eye and make comfortable the
home. Want of space makes it
impossible to enumerate all the
articles displayed tastefully in
the Floral Hall. This depart
ment more than double discount
ed the. display OF last year, and
when we get a more permanent
and convenient building next
year we look for a still greater
Improvement.
Many avisitor went home from
this second annual fair with a
regret that he or she did not
bring some Of the nice things
from home to compete for the
honors, and we hope that the
resolve to do SO next year will
not be forgotten.
Although the third day,-Fri.
day-was the only real pleasant
weather given us (the other days
being either too cold or too mis-.
erably windy) the attendance
was reasonably good. Neal
1000 people attended Friday
and nearly that many Thursday
and Saturday The receipts
were ample to enable the associ
alton to pay oct and still have
money left to prepare for next
year.
The race features were, so fal
as we can learn, pulled off salts
factorily. The track was il
splendid shape, and some yer,
fast time was made.
The association is still deter
mined that the race features
shall not overshadow the agri
cultural and industrial feature
OF these annual meetings, and t,
that end we earnestly urge upol
the farmers and stock men of al
parts OF the county to take NOR
interest in the organizat O n
Take stock, attend the meetings
and assist in preparing for tn
annual fairs. You will never re
gret it.

elegant booth, as did also the
Cyclone store, T., r. Moses Mere.
Co., and The Great Bend Furni-
ture Co. There were three sew
ing machines, operated by ex-
perts, on exhibition, although
not in competition. Mrs. L. F.
Tyler, and Lundblade & Bolin-
ger each had elegant millinery
displays.
The Great Bend Ice Plant
made a display that was well
worth special mention. A large
cake of ice, clear as crystal, and
having frozen in it's centre clus-
ters OF fruits, flowers, melons,
etc., stood facing the south en-
trance toSthe Floral Hall. This
was renewed each day, with new
designs, and attracted universal
attention.
SPECIAL NoTE-You, reader

In MEMORY OF MCKINLEY.

On account OF the County Fair
being in progress Thursday, the
public exercises in memory of
our Martyred President were
held at the NJ. E. church, in Great
Bend, Sunday morning the 22d,
pursuant to call of the Mayor
and City Council.
The church, the largest in the
city, was packed to it's fullest
capacity by our mourning citi-
zens, and the exercises listened to
with the deepest interest.
Councilman l.. j. Barker acted
as director of ceremonies. The
church was tastefully decorated
in mourning. A large picture OF
Vim. Mckinley, properly draped
in the national colors and a pro-
fusion Of crepe, occupied the cen
ter alcove directly behind the
altar; on either side in the two
other alcoves hung large pictures
of Abraham Lincoln and James
A. Garfield. The altar, railing
around it, and organ were draped
in black, with enough bunting to
give an elegant effect.
The exercises opened with
''Lead Kindly Light by a quar-
tette, followed by a most earnest
prayer by Rev. L. c. Schnacke of
the Congregational church. Rev.
L. G.. Morony Of the Episcopal
church then read an appropriate
chapter Of Scripture.
Council Barker, who had had
a personal acquaintance with the
deceased President made a few
feeling remarks touching upon
the home life of deceased, and
then asked that the entire audi
ence arise and join in singing
"Nearer My God to Thee" led by
D. M. Woodburn, a war veteran.
Rev. Hestwood of the NJ. E..
church, then made an address
upon the subject: Mckinley as
a Christian" He spoke feelingly
and brought out thoughts that
sank deep into the hearts of his
audience.
Probate Judge w. P. FEEDER, in
behalf of the democrats, and also
as a Son Of Veteran, spoke upon
''McKinley as a Citizen.'' He
touched upon the home incidents
in the life of the deceased Pres
ident that proved him pre-emi-
nently the model citizen; his devo-
tion to his wife and mother, his
popularity among the common
people with whom he lived, bis
steadfast integrity, and at the
close called upon all the young
people-the boys and girls-to
carry in their hearts the memory
of VIM. Mckinley as a citizen,
and to emulate his example.
With a few more personal rem
inescenses by Councilmen Bar
ker, he requested the audience to
| join in singing Crock of Ages
Cleft For Me-
Conrad G.. W. Nimocks then
spoke of "Major Mckinley as a
Soldier;" recalling many Incl
dents of the war in which the sol
dier President had distinguished
himself.
Judge E. C. Cole then spoke
upon president Mckinley as
Statesman. His address was
most eloquent. He pointed out
the vast differences between the
statesman and thepolitician, be
tween the men who have gained
prominence in politics as poll
ticians for personal gain and ad
vancement alone, and Mckinley
the statesman whose aim wa!
the betterment of mankind an(
the glory of the land.
At the close of Judge Cole
address the entire audience join
ed in singing America" ant
were dismissed, Rev. Mcconnell
