THE FAIR.

The prospects for the Fair this yea,
are the best in the history of the Asso
cation; and September 18th, 18th ane
zotn VIII see on our fair grounds the
greatest aggregation of horses eve,
seen In the county or anywhere else ir
the State, unless in the large cities.
Inc management this year in keen,
ing with established modern customs
offered two stake races, entries for
which closed on June LIST. In one ~
these nine horses have been entered and
In the other seven. This insures first class
races among the best horses in the coup-
Try The purses are large enough to
9rlng horses from distance. and horses
are already entered in these stake races
from eight States and the entry fees
paid. OF course the owners of these
horses have other horses that thew will
nrlng here for entry in the other races
FMS insures by far the largest number
OF tast horses ever seen here. The ad-
aoVantage OF the stake races Is that the
Association had a right to call them off
II 1t desired so to do for any reason. The
number Of entries being so large, the
amount OF money they will cost the As
ISOLATION is very small compared to the
size OF the purses. Race purses. all
told, amount to IS, 10000.
The other exhibits will also show q
marked improvement over previous ex-
hibitions. The Association Is still hamn-
ered' to some extent, by lack of space
but every effort will be made to displav
everything properly. One thing is Ger.
taln-the Association will do all it can
70 please everybody and give everything
and everybody .'fair show"
The grounds nave been greatly inn
proved by the construction of a tunnel
under the track near the entrance. Bv
this means, the necessity of driving and
walking across the track is obyiated
inns not only makes it possible to keep
the track clear at all times for exhibit
lions and races, but saves the people the
trouble and annoyance of driving I'D the
hill, across the track and through two
gates. The public will greatly appre-
tate this improvement.
ghe interest shown in the fair 10
greater than ever, and Is growing every
lay. The people realize the fact that
is great thing for the county. II
Ieeps US abreast of the times and he
ore the public. We want to know these
'eeple and want them to know what we
ave. Besides all that, we just natur-
lily like to get together and see each

title doubt that the attendance this
ear will be record breaker.
In the way of amusements the Fair
his year will be unique. The Demorest

importance il conceded to the ques-
ton of disarmament which has been
virtually abandoned by Great brit-
ain and unless introduced BY the
United States may be ignored en-
tirely by the conference. Germany
has instructed her delegates to bear
no part In the discussion of the
question, but to report back 10 the
peror the debates and the pro
ceedings in regard to it. France
would be ready to consider disarma-
ment, but does not entertain any
great illusion on the subject.
The Drago doctrine, which In
hibits the use Of force by q nation
to collect debts owing its citizens by
another government, is deeply in
teresting the American delegates.
There are all kinds of opinions
among them as to the extent to
which the doctrine should be applied
in the collection of debts and the
conditions which might be used.
The enlarging Of the powers OF
the Hague Court Of Arbitration and
the International Commission of In
quiry is of the first importance TO
Americans. The delegates are
known to have explicit instructions
to do everything in their power to
influence the conference to enlarge
the powers of the permanent Hague
tribunal in dealing with arbitration
cases.

afraid to do little more than he is
hired to do is the man who never
rises higher than his job. With
jealous eyes he sees young, energetic
fellows step over him, and asks
where they got their pull?
They got their pull from their
push. One pound more pressure on

Character Alone Counts.

An Arkansas paper mourns the
fact that "the paper that comes
square out in the open and supports
or opposes any measure treads on
toes somewhere and loses money"
That is in large measure true, but
it is also true that the paper that
fears to tread on toes somewhere
and is therefore mushy, loses more
money. The papers that have
strength and influence are those that
have the confidence and respect of
the people, and confidence and re-
spect are only Won by coming

A few days ago health officer of
Waynesville went to the home of a

and he and Mrs. Hayne had some
hot words when the woman brought
a revolver into play and snapped it
at the health officer, but for some
reason, which was no fault Of Mrs.
Hayne, the weapon failed to fire.
The mayor fined Mis-. Hayne two
dollars. Had the health officer been
killed the lady would probably have
been fined at least four dollars.
