FAIR
Arizona Territorial Show Al
Phoenix viii Have Some OF
The Finest Horses In All The
United States.
(Phoenix Republican,


when the uppermost thought OF all
Phoenix people should be the terri
! .o..s. sss- Al ether Arizona peo-
pie should have the same thought
as near the top of the pile N their
mental storeroom as local conditions
will permit and there is no AriZonan
that should not have the matter In
mind a little bit, II 1t Is no more than
to wish he could attend the big show
even when he knows he cannot. But
the most of them can come by nook
or crook IL they try hard enough and
Phoenix will be disappointed If the
attendance is not far greater than at
either of the two most successful
preceding fairs.
There will be a lot to write about
from this time on and Z is hoped the
territorial press will be liberal with
its space for If ever there was an
all-territorial enterprise it is this one.
This particular story is about the
horses. The racing attractions this
year will far surpass those of the pre-
ceding fairs and take rank along with
many of the fairs IN the older states
where the attendance will naturally
DO much larger.
There will be fourteen stake races
each one named and guaranteed by
some particular town in the territory.
That means two stakes every dag and
some days three, and several heats
of course to each stake. OF the four
teen stakes nine are filled. The five
not yet filled are the free for all trot
| free for all pace. 2:16 pace. 2.0S troi
and 2:29 trot Speed Superintendent
Shirley Christy said yesterday that
| the five untitled stakes were re-
opened as purses, races and entries
for them win be closed on November
II. It is now up to the horsemen who
| have good steppers to get busy and
| break into these classes.
Thus far over a hundred good
horses have been entered in one race
or another and they come from al
parts. With hundred good harnes;
horses on the fair grounds land more
are expected) there ought to be some
| fine entertainment for the people
who like to see fast travelling
/ Though the names Of all the horses

made that there will be several ma
tional celebrities present both witt
