The Fair association has landed on
its feet squarely on its feet, its head
up and eyes glued to the biggest sue
cess in the history of Albuquerque
and the association, for the fair or
1906.
A group of Albuquerque men,
the very men who would have been
elected by general vote of the city
for the positions they are to fill, have
come forward to take command,
agreeing under certain very reasona-
Bile conditions to undertake the enor-
nous burden of hard work and the
heavy responsibility connected with
the management of the fair WITH
OUT ONE CENT OF PAY FROM
THE ASSOCIATION OR ANY 9TH

of no pay for any officer of the fair. Is
one of the stipulations upon which
these men have agreed to take the
lead and the management

the position OF general manager of the
fair of 1906.

Upon them will devolve the active
management. The conditions upon

fulfilled at once without the shadow
OF doubt a full set of officers has
been chosen and every one OF them

Committee of Fifteen Names Officers.
Following out the Instructions OF
the mass meeting OF Monday night the
committee OF fifteen held meeting
last night at which the subcommittee
reported its plan for naming the OFF,
GERS for the coming fair. The commit
tee went into full discussion OF the
situation. II found that there was
nothing In the situation to discourage
and that there was everything in the
situation to encourage the launching
of plans for the biggest fair Albuquer-
que has ever had. Recognizing that
bigger subscrin ntion than ever before
would have to be raised, recognizing
the handicap of the existing deficit.
the committee was still unanimous in
its belief that the time has come for
the New Mexico fair to grow. As re-
suit the fair Is going to grow. No
more enthusiastic meeting of Albu-
querque business men has ever been
held than the little gathering of
staunch and loyal citizens who got to-
gether last night

following corDs of officers have been
named for the fair Of 1906:
