Dean of Agricultural College,
CONTRACTS INVOLVED
Governor Refuses to Approve Specifica-
tons and Building Firms in Middle
All Retain Attorneys.

MADISON, Wis. Nov. ID Special
University Of Wisconsin authorities
are investigating the charges made
against Dean Henry Of the agricultural
school and others, although the dean has
been fully exoncratcd, according to Of
icials. The effort is TO get at the bottom
Of affairs
Knapp Gets Leave Of Absence.
Prof. g. w. Knapp made some I'M
known charges against his supcriors. iie
was at once given an indefinite leave Of
absence, with the understanding that
this was to become permanent. Archi-
teCt Jennings, who was involved in the
charges, resigned bis post in charge of
The erection of important new university
buildings.
After the first announcement that
Knapp was likely TO be dismissed, il de.
ycloped that he had filed long docu
mcnt with the governor and given the
authorities until November 20 to act
This IS regarded as an ultimatum. If
he IS not assured of at least retention in
his present position something is likely to
drop,
The university and state authorities
declare that the affair is tempest in a
teapot but Prof. Knapp and Architect
Jennings and Secretary Riley of the
state board Of regents have retained at
torncys
Building Contract Involved.
The governor has refused to approve
n contract for certain new university
buildings. This has developed the fact
that GAINESVILLE firm, which tclegraphed
that II mailed bids on the new struct-
ures, had received back its bid unopened,
though an arrangement had been made
with the university regents for its rccep.
ton. The firm which did secure the con
tract, though not accused Of having been
involved in any improper deal, also has
retained attorneys
The regents have announced only that
the dean is cxoncratcd. What the
charges arc they refuse to say.
Made College Famous.
Regent Maguus Swanson says. at
was n case Of get rid Of Mr. Knapp or
Dean Henry. We know Dean Henry as
probably the grcatcst man in agricul-
tural educational matters in the world
the man who has given twenty-five years
Of his life TO the Wisconsin agricultural
college and experiment station and has
made the institution and our state IA
nous the world over. The resignation Of
Architect Jennings is quito separate
from the Henry Knapp controversy. 1t
may be intocrablC for him to remain as
university architect.

in it's nature as to embrace every in terest of our great territory To that end we want every individual and ev- cry community to exhibit any produc- tion they wish and the best possible premiums will be offered. We will devote one section to a min ing exhibit and wish we could get every mine in the territory interested to make a display of it's ore. This be- ing our greatest industry should be one of the leading features of the fair and We will endeavor to arrange for this display to be cared for perman- ently. We hope to hear from the min ing men generally as to the exhibit they will make and the space they will require.
 Another leading feature will be the display of live stock Premiums will be offered for cattle of the different breeds and so classed that all can find a place to enter, no matter what kind they are raising.
 We hope for an especially large dis play of horses. Some time ago a local horse show surprised every one who attended and we expect the surprise will be still greater when the entire territory makes an exhibit. So let
 
 best.
 The sheep interest should be well represented and premiums will be of fered in all the various classes-in fact the live stock can be made one of the most interesting and instructive exhi- bits of the fair and we hope every stock man who can will advise us at as early a date as possible what he will enter.
 The agricultural and horticultural exhibits will be attractive features and we want our farmers to come right in and show what can be done all the way from pumpkins to oranges. We want especially to get into communi- cation with all fruit and vegetable growers associations, in fact we want to hear from every one who has any thing for exhibit and we will endeavor to arrange classes to suit.
 One of the attractive features of this first meeting of the fair will be the harness and running races that are now being arranged for. There will be one running and three harness races each afternoon and as $12O 900 is being of fered in purses and stakes there will undoubtedly be plenty of good and eX citing races.
 The date of this first meeting has been set for December 4th to 9th inclu- sive and as this is one of the most at tractive seasons of the year in the Salt River Valley we hope for a splendid meeting and that everybody in the ter ritOry will attend in person or send a representative.

 By J. C. Adams, President.

THE TERRITORIAL FAIR
A Statement Just Issued by the Com
 mission.

The Territorial Fair commission has just issued the following statement:
 The Territorial Fair commission in assuming the duties of it's office earn estly desires the hearty cooperation of every citizen of the territory in mak- ing the first meeting a great success.
 The last legislature appropriated Sl5.000 to be used in the erection of exhibit buildings and the plans for these are now being prepared; they v-ill be erected on the grounds of the Territorial Fair association one mile northwest of Phoenix; this association having raised $3O.OOO. which will be used in paying for eighty acres of land purchased. building a full regulation mile track with an inside one-haIf mile track with a grand stand, stables and other buildings and for all pur- posed necessary to make a success of fhis enterprise. Work is now commence ing on the grounds and will be vigor- uusly pushed until everything is finish cd. and as the funds are ample we an ticipate as complete and attractive a plant as could be desired.
 The appropriation of s7,500 annually will enable the commission to offer some attractive premiums and it is proposed to make the fair so general

DOUGLAS IS RIGHT
Will Cooperate Heartily in the Ter
 ritOriaI Fair.

That Douglas proposes to be in line and in hearty cooperation in the ter
 ritorial fair enterprise is indicated by | the following from the International American. The paper is in error though when it claims for Douglas the only brewery in Arizona, for there is | a successful brewery enterprise fin i operation at Prescott. The Interna- tiOnaI says:
 When the first territorial fair opens in Phoenix in October next it | is likely that no other city in Arizona will be able to attract more attention from the visitors than Douglas. It is understood that the Copper Queen and the Calumet & Arizona will both send some of their smelter products to show what is supporting this section of Arizona and besides these exhibits | it is quite likely that three other en- terprises in this city will each have a display which will be creditable both
 to Douglas and to Arizona
 There are three manufacturing es- tablishments in this city which should and no doubt will be represented at Phoenix when the fair is opened to visitors this fall.
 "The Copper City Brewing company will certainly have an exhibit and be- ing the only brewery in Arizona it will direct special attention to Douglas. Manager Reno has already been struck lfavorabIy with the idea of arrangin z a display of his products at the ter ritoTial fair. as a means of calling the attention of the people of the terri tory to his new enterprise. which is meeting with such splendid success. The beer made by the Copper City brewery easily ranks with any beer of fered for sale in Arizona.
 At present we are hardly able to
 supply the demand for beer at our brewery said MT. Reno, but l recOg-
 nize that we could make an exhibit
 at Phoenix which would be surprising will do so.'
 Cast Stone company, stated yesterday afternoon that he had not yet decided about making an exhibit of his build ing material at the fair, though the matter had been suggested to him. "'We will hardly have our new ma chinery in operation in time to show our new products in the way of press
 ed building blocks and brick at the
 time the fair will be held, but we could make a good display of our pres
 ent building blocks and our cement
 plaster said MT. Moore today.
 "The Copper City Cigar company in
 this city will in probability arrange
 for space and exhibit at the fair, so
 the outlook is now favorable for Doug
 las to carry off several blue ribbons
 from the first Arizona fair"
