BATES COUNTY FAIR.
First Two Days Big Success.
Big Crowds Expected Thurs
day and Friday.

The first two days attendance at
he fair WAS much larger than ex-
pected and estimated by many toex.
led the attendance OF the CORES
ponding days last year.
The trotting races were exception
lily good although the track wss in
very poor condition from the exces.
aivp dust A number OF good horses
re here, both trotters and runners
and lovers Of this sport will be given
treats 80 day and tomorrow.
The exhibits In the Art Hall are
not so numerous a. previously but
are exceptionally fine. A good dis
play Of fruit. The corn display would
be hard TO beat, There are an un
usual large number Of exhibitors
showing that the efforts OF the corn
growers association to get our farm
ers interested and the handsome pri-
vate premiums hung up, bore good
results.
The live stock display is very fine,
and represented by horses, mules,
cattle, sheep and hogs. II is worth
while for lovers OF fine stock to de
vote some time on this exhibit.
Takers are in evidence In Increased
numbers and 1t Is mighty hard for
unwsry TO stall past them without
giving up nicSels and dimes. Is
would be much better for the fair II
they could all be shut out.

tion are serving a good lunch at the

Quit PIowins
The RoAds

One of the best known farmers of this
county said to-the Hustler, yesterday:
81 hope they will either stop blowing
up the roads or else fence 'em I'M and
plant them to corn. 1 believe 1t q waste
of time and money to do any grading
until ready to pave the road. I want to
see paved roads 1 believe it would be
the salvation of the county, and would
like to see 500, 900 in bonds voted for
that purpose, which would be q fixed
charge of only 5000 a year, and We
would have the roads. Now we spend
over $1,000 a year and where are the
roads?
"But until that time comes split log
drag would improve conditions wonder
fully, and if used on that bad stretch of
road between the depot and the first
bridge would help conditions there .
100 percent, and be an illustration
of what might be done all over the
county.
Congressman Crawford had a govern
ment expert here to explain the merits
of the drag, and those who heard him
were convinced of its entire feasibility.
The government endorses it and out
West they are getting roads almost
equal to paved roads by this method
81 understand a drag has been made.
Let the city authorities have that
wretched road near the depot dragged
an hour after each rain, and the results
will be startling"

A Lesson In Honesty.

There is a restaurant in Broad street
In which nearly a thousand persons
eat during the noon hour. Each per
son eats what he pleases and when he
goes to the cashiers desk announces
the amount of his indebtedness. The
proprietors figure that to trust to the
honesty Of their patrons Is a saYing of
precious Wall street minutes and. be-
sides, is good business. Once In awhile
keen eyed employees capture a cheat.
One of these, a youth, was Caught
with the goods on" a few days g
and taken to the Office of the proprie-
tors. Given the choice of being ar
rested or going into the kitchen and
washing dishes, the young man nearly
collapsed of shame and fright. BE
begged not to be arrested and re,
luctantly agreed to wash dishes. For
an hour OF so the culprit struggled
with a pile Of dishes in a tub of steam.
Ing water. Then he was told he might
depart Now he brings his lunch from
home.-New York Press.

made in the selection of a place
TO hold the convention, notwith-
standing Greensboro's long es-
tablished reputation for hospital
ity. Raleigh is really the most
suitable point at which to hold
these conventions, but has no
auditorium large enough to &C.
commodate the tremendous at
tendance of recent years. In
view of this fact It is well to visit
other places desiring the ''attrac-
tion." After going to Green's
boro twice in succession, Char
lotte was naturally the logical
place to meet this year, which
means a large attendance of west
ern folks, who have heretofore
been deprived of similar priv
ilese on account of the long dis
lance and consequent expense of
going to Raleigh or Greensboro.
All aboard for Charlotte on June
q, in order to be in good time
for the preliminary proceedings.
