THE FAIR BOARD MEETS.

The board of directors recent,
elected by the Mesa County Fruit
Fair association, met Saturday after
noon, January 18th at O'Clock in
the court house for the purpose OF
organization and to attend to such
other business as might come before
them.
The directors present were Messrs.
Swartz. DeLong, Haines. Price. Buck
lin and Dudley. Absent: Bomgard-
ner. Secor. Dittman. Hall, Mcdowell
and Sullivan.
There being a quorum present,
the board proceeded to a temporary
organization by electing Mr.. w. Il.
Haines. president and Mr.. Geo. ]
d. Williams as secretary.
In order to familiarize themselves
with their duties and the past his
tory of the association. they first
read the bylaws and the minutes
of the various meetings held by their
predecessors.
The board then proceeded to per
manent organization by electinE w
r. Haines, president, A. n. Bucklin,
vice-president and VIM. Dudley
treasurer. On motion the election of
the permanent secretary was post
poned. and Horace r belong was
elected temporary secretary without
salary.
The board then selected the execut-
i've committee, consisting of w. r.
Haines, Horace T. belong, VIM.
Swartz, A. n. Buclllin and c. c.
Price.
A resolution was passed calling
upon Ex-Secretary Carl d. Fisher. to
make a full statement of all official
acts and submit the same to the board
at an early date. This action was
necessary since the records of the
secretary contained no accounting of
the actions of the board and of mon
les received in connection with the
last fair.
The new board discussed many
matters affecting the welfare of the
association. including the collection
of back subscriptions. the sale of new
stock. improvements of property, ar
engagements for the next fair and sew
eral other matters.
There being no further business,
the board on motion adjourned to
meet at its next regular meeting in
April.
The manner in which the new fair
board got down to business Satur-
men who mean business and who
will work satisfactorily and conscien-
tinuously for advancement and the
upbuilding of the county fair. The
board is well balanced. and well Sc
lected and under its management
the somewhat muddled affairs of the
association will doubtless be straight
ened out and a new start taken.

ment at the Park opera house. pre-
senting as the concluding attraction
the hilarious comedy. "a Gigantic
Liar" one of Nat Goodwin's great
successes. The audience was large
one and the performance was more
than pleasing. The characters were
all well known and the crowd was
kept laughing from the start until
the final curtain. In a delightful
and happy talk Mr.. Wolfe had many
nice things to say about the city and
its people. declaring that in his opin-
ion the prospects for the growth and

popular theatrical mans remarks
were heartily applauded. Mr. Wolfe
has the strongest repertoire company
that visits this city and not a single
performance given last week proved
Every production
was of high class. The company is
far above the average repertoire com
pany in every way. Although the
was not large at the per-
formances during the early part of
the week owing to the many counter
attractions 1t became heavier later
and the audiences on the last three
evenings were very large. Saturday
afternoon the opera house was com
pletely filled by ladies and children
out to see and enjoy the matinee
The engagement on the whole was
a very successful one. May the Wolfe

THE FIGHT ENDS TONIGHT.

The principal topic OF con-
versation on the streets to-
day has been the contest that
will be on tonight, in the
meeting of the stockholders
of the Mesa County Building
& Loan association.
The principal contest is to
secure a sufficient number of
members of the board of di-
rectors to control the secre-
taryship of the association.
which pays a monthly salary
of 10000. The position has
been held by J. II. Ramey
and the business transacted
in the Offices of the Ramey
Investment company for
many years. When they sold
out to the Ramey-Udlock In
vestment company, IL was
supposed that the position
would go with the sale and
to Mr.. Il. r.. Udlock, who is n
candidate. However. since
the change was made and
since the Messrs. Ramey an
nounced their intention ofre-
firing from active business
in the city, an insurgent
camp was formed, which
maintain the secretaryship of
the association must not be
bartered away with the
change in the business of the
Messrs. Ramey.
In conformity with their
idea, they have named Chas.
b. Rich, city treasurer, as
their candidate for the posi-
ton of secretary. Inter
views with both sides this
morning leads to the belief
that the contest will be close.
Both sides feel confident of
winning out. Undoubtedly
every share of stock in the
company will be represented
at tonight's meeting of the
stockholders of the associa-
tion and the result is being
watched with much interest.
So far the contest has been
most friendly one. each side
contending that they have a
perfect right to work for
whomever they may see fit
and his contention is very
generally granted.
Whatever way the contest
may be decided the old Mesa
County Building association
will go forward just as be-
fore. each year earning good
dividends for It's stockholders
and being rated as one of the
best associations in the state,
with the other two associa-
lions in this city.

The increased purchase of rags in
Germany by American industrialIsts,
amounting now to over one million dol

te.ts from the German paper manufac'
turers, who ask for an expert duty On
rags and cuttings. The rag industry OF
Germany is the subject of report re-
ceived by the bureau of manufactures
from Consular Clerk Leute at Kannhelm,
which is a rag centre, where over 20, O0O
tons are handled annually. The rag
factories there are modern buildings,
equipped with electric lights, electric
presses, shredding machines, elevators,
steam heating, dsinfecting rooms, etc.
Some difficulty has been experienced
lately in getting enough laborers among
the German girls and women, 80 Call
clans have been secured who do not
understand German, but make good
workers. Waste rope is turned into
cigarette paper, and all the rags and
textile waste. after assortment, is put to
acme practical use. Even the dust and
fuzz is now carefully collected and made
into roofing paper.
