of large sums of money. The news
papers outside of the county were
handled in such a manner that their
support wns very liberal and the
many columns of matter devoted to a
Fair were given gratis. The news
papers of the county We're deep in
the work and the two daily papers of
this city were the main boosters
never failing to remind the people of
the important work at hand.
In the conducting of the Fair there
are many minor details which con-
front the management but they were
all overcome as nearly as possible.
In the entertainment line there is
one official worthy of much praise as
his efforts were indispensable and
during the Fair when difficult prob
lens arise in arguments with horse
men he was fully awake to the situa-
tion and satisfaction resulted in
every instance. Mr.. C. C. Price, to
whom / refer. deserves the sole credit
of handling the race track and un-
der his efficient management it has
been a credit to the Association.
When it is considered that the Super
intendent of Speed left his position

then be realized that he sacrificed
As for Secretary. there is nothing
to be said except that he did the best

were made which is the case in al
most every public office. the optim-
istical side of the Association has al
ways been presented. 1t has been
extremely pleasant to work with such
a genial and broad minded President
and set of Directors and had it nto
been for their words of advice the
Secretary would not have been per-
mitted to read the following:

The Board of Directors would
make the following recommenda-
tions
1st That inasmuch as the AS
sociation owes $9,676.3O with but
575 shares of stock in the treasury.
it would ask the stockholders at this
annual meeting to take legal meas
ures to call a special meeting for the
purpose of increasing the capital
stock from $25,000.00 to $35. 10000.

The Board was somewhat disap-
pointed in not receiving more earn
est support from the city in the mat
ter of using water from the city
mains. In 1905 a large amount of
water was used and the city council
very generously donated the same to
the Association, but in 1906 not over
one-fourth of the amount used the
previous year, was consumed yet after
pleading with the council to assist the
Association when IL was struggling

ed change in the workings of the
Fair. 1t was plainly shown that the
motto of the city of Grand Junction
needed appropriating and that "All
Together" was the watchword. 1t is
exceedingly gratifying to know that
the very liberal support of the peo-
pie of the county has been received
during the past year. which has had
much to do with the success of the
Fair, if after hearing this report you
will agree the making of the 1906
+ air was the election of a substant-
tal Board OF Directors, who have
worked together as a unit and a-t all
times in the interest of the Associa-
tion. Not a single minority report
has been presented during the twelve
meetings of the Board and it has in
deed been pleasurable to work with
our president and such officers as
were fortunately selected.
The second order in the line of
work mapped out was the securing
of contracts for the sale of stock in
order that the bills and premiums of
1905, remaining unpaid could be set
tied. The committee appointed, con-
sisting of President Haines, and Di-
rectors Williams and Bucklin, worked
faithfully for several weeks and sue

1t has been intimated that the action
of the Board of Directors in abolish

major part of the benefit the support
of the municipality should at least
be received by the Board.

said plainly that he did not see why
the Board should want to have this
protest kept out of the papers, espe-
cially as it was bound to come out
anyhow when the time for the hear
ing of the granting of the license in
question came. Furthermore, Lucas
thought that in this case the pub
fishing of the protest would be a
good thing, as it came from man
who was respected by great many
people who would like to know what
he had to say on the subject.
Lucas told the rest of the Commits
sioners that he had been on the
Eoard of Supervisors for year and
q half and that body had never re-
sorted to star-chamber methods. The
license board was public body as
much as the Board of Supervisors
was, and the public had right to
know what it was doing.
'Ballentyne did not see that there
could be any harm in having the pro-
test in question published, but, on
the other hand, he could see that
there might be some matters which
should not be published This atti-
tude was taken by the majority of
the members. Lucas still fought
manfully for publicity, telling the
supporters of the proposition to keep
out the protest; that in such case
they might as well move to have ex-
ecutive sessions altogether.
In the meantime the reporter had
been busily employed in taking down
the remarks of the Commissioners on
the subject of publicity, but this
was discovered .by the eagle eye of
one of the Commissioners, and then
the storm broke worse than ever.
Several of the Commissioners insist

their remarks placed before the pub

be good for the public, and the re-

that in the future the meetings of
the Board would be executive.
Secret License
During the rest of the session the
Board made it's final decision as to
the form of the licenses, which will
row be printed and distributed. In
regard to restaurants it was decided
that such should have no bars. Pri-
vate dining rooms in these places
were the subject of considerable dis
cussion, and it was finally decided
that they must be subject to the APP
prOval of the Board.
