FAIR INCORPORATED
NECESSARY PAPERS OF rNcoRPon-
 ATION ARE FILED.
Already Paid In stock Amounts to S5S.000--Applicatfous for Space are Coming
 In RaufdIy

After & period of almost four weeks since its informal organization, tho Alabama Agricultural Association yes- terday became a legally incorporated body The papers required by law be- Tore the organization can continue it's preparations for the big State Fair which is to be held in Montgomery, Oc- tober 22 to 27, were filed with Judge J. B. Gaston of the Probate Court late in the afternoon, and now all legal forms have been complied with, and arrangements for the big event may be rushed forward without delay.
 Although only $50,000 paid-in capi- tai is required by the stipulations in the papers of incorporation. when Sec retary J. C. Adams of the Association yesterday made his entries in the Pro, bate Corut, the papers showed that an total of $55.000 had been subscribed for. or taken out in stock, thus placing the organization $5,000 above the basis on which it could be organized.
 While the filing of the papers has been held in abeyance. however, there has been no hesitation in the work which must be performed before thes preparations for the Fair are complete. During the interval between the date of the informal organization and yes terday, the members of the Association have made rapid strides. The site for the fair grounds has been selected and all arrangements made for it's pur- chase. Plans for the race track, and for the different buildings which must be erected for the accommodation off the exhibits and the visitors to the fair have been under consideration for several days and committees have been appointed to look after the different departments of the exposition. which Is to be the most complete of its kind ever held in the State of Alabama
 The final survey of the fair grounds will be completed tomorrow, and as soon as the plans have been drawn up. the boundaries of the tract will he the Association will be ready to pro- ceed with the real constructive work about the grounds.
 Secretary Adams reports that appli-~ cations have been pouring in from diff < ferent manufacturing concerns through { out the State for space for exhibits. < These spaces will be allotted as soon ! as the plans for the buildings are com < pleted and have been accepted, when the committee will be prepared to go ahead with their portion of the work. One of the latest applications was re- ceived yesterday from the Eufaula Buggy Company. This company asked for a liberal space, with the intention of exhibiting complete line of their s product.
 There have been frequent applica- s tions. also. from the different educa- tional institutions in different parts of the State, indicating the interest with which the Educational Department of the fair Is being regarded. This sec tion, 1t is promised. will be one of the most interesting in the entire exposi- 2 tion. {
 There will be another meeting of thef3 Board of Directors at an early date, at which important steps which must be taken up promptly will be discussed.

THE MORTGAGE TAX LAW.
Compromiae Effected With Coiumbui
 Water Power Company.

Ccmprcnise ERected With Columbus
 Water Power Company.
 The State officials who have charge of Alabama's revenue business. con tinue to have trouble of some nature with the mortgage tax law. All the features of the law have not been sui ficiently tested in the courts, and some of them are regarded as a bit doubtful. In view of this. the State officials have deemed it best to effect some com promises where fight on some doubt- full issue is threatened.
 A case in point is the compromise reached with the Columbus Water Pow CT Company of Columbus. Ga. This company had to file a mortgage of $4,000.0 .000 in Lee County upon its prop erty But only a part of this property Is located in Lee County. Under the provisions of the law the fee on this big mortgage would be s6,000. The entire holdings of the company in the State of Alabama Is less than $5o,000. The company expected. too. to file second mortgage on It's property. In view of certain supposed defects of the law. the State Tax Commission finally agreed to accept the sum of $750 for recording the mortgage. The county of Lee will get one-third of this tax.
