THE FAIR HAS SEALED
THE UNION OF TWO COUNTIES

~ have attended many fairs, both
small and large, but, have never
seen such enthusiasm, genuine inter-
est, good attendance and good order
as has prevailed for the entire week
at the Umatilla-M Morrow county fair
In this city this week" is the judg-
ment of Henry Blaokman, the well
known and popular citizen of Hepp-
ner and m member of the jamestown eX-
position commission for oregon. who
with Mrs. Blackman has been the
guest of DR.. and Mrs. Swinburne for
the past week.
Mr.. Blackman is deeply interested
In the success of the fair. He has
been present from the first day and
has watched its progress closely and
is a capable Judge, having had eX-
tensive experience with various fairs
in his life. He is enthusia site over
the excellent attendance throut the
entire week, as he believes II shows a
woll founded and genuine interest in
the fair. He feels that IT shows an
appreciation which speaks louder
than any words of praise for the
management and arrangement of the
fair.
81 wish to see the Third Eastern
Oregon District Agricultural society
become the foremost fair society in
eastern Oregon and to this end will
work faithfully with our people in
Morrow county who I assure YOU are
In hearty sympathy with the people
of Umatilla county in making the fair
a success.
81 wish to he quoted as saying en-
phatically that the livestock exhibit
at this fair is equal to or even better
than the exhibit at the state fair,
which is speaking columes for this
district This should encourage the
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-09-29

| people of this district to make dis
play next year which will surpass any
thing ever seen in the state.
"We are proud that we have as the
home of the fair in this district, the
city of Pendleton, which is the only
city in the state of Oregon outside of
Portland which has any prospects of
having paved streets in the very near
future.
1--WE are also proud that this fair
has been the means of bringing the
most prominent men in the state to
our midst during the week and has
made them acquainted with our re-
sources This alone is full remun-
Grafton for all the cost and labor in
making the fair success.
Il think this fair has been very
ably managed, indeed. Excellent
work has been performed not only by
the commission, but by those employ
ci in other positions connected with
the fair and we should give all due
credit for their fathfulness and abil-
ity.
81 shall devote my life to the up
building of Morrow and Umatilla
counties and shall always be found in
the ranks working for our district
fair. 1t is final and perpetual bond
of union between the two great coun-
ties In the third district which will
bring our people closer together, cause
them to feel more genuine interest
in each others welfare, and will tend
to develop our resources and advertize
lN.,, ,l,l,, -
Mr.. Blackman speaks in especially
complimentary terms of the music
furnisht by Signor De Caprio during
the fair and has also been delighted
with the entertainment and special
features prepared by the fair commits
sion for the enjoyment of the visitors.
