May Build Bridfe.

The board of supervisors met in special session this morning to open bids for the building of the bridge across the Little Colordo river, north of Winslow; Pullian & Go. were the only bidders; their bid was to put in a bridge to be built of Oregon pine at a cost of S5,200. As this is the best proposition yet presented to the board on this bridge they took the same under advisement. If the town
 of Winslow will put up Sl 800 the bridge will be built.-Holbroo ok Argus.

TERRITORIAL FAIR.
Site Selected Contracts for Buildings Let
 Wasson Tract Of 90 Acres Selected. !

OlHCidl dCtlOn nus Deeu Ldkeu On Juc selection of the fair site and that the Wasson tract has been chosen. The consideration Is about $8,000. The Gazette also says:
 The Wasson tract consists of 80 acres and is situated at Six Points. The Five Points car line will probably be extended to reach the site and as it is convenient to the Santa Fe track, that road will probably run train between the local depot and the grounds where the fair is being held. The matter of handling the crowds will therefore be no problem so far as getting them to and from the fair grounds is concerned.
 The grounds will be immediately put in shape for the first annual fair which will be held this fall. There will be mile track and the usual buildings for exhibits and stalls for race horses and for the live stock display.
 The fair will be held in November after the Los Angeles fair and it is expected that great many of the horses that will be at Los Angeles will come here. The association has already entered upon campaign of advertising and has sent out pamph- lets, one setting forth the valleys ad- vantages as a wintering place for race horses and another announcing the first annual meeting of the Arizona Fair association. .--- .-- -.. The fair management has decided that there will be about SIP, 900 avail able for the encouragement of speed in one class or another and all the horsemen in the world are invited to come here and get some of it if they can qualify.
 The association has published an entry blank, copies of which will be furnished to any horseman upon ap- blication to the secretary, w. N. Tiff fany. On the back of the blank is printed great deal of information concerning conditions, purses, etc., and also a brief reference to the con- yeniences and appointments of the fair grounds.
