number appearing in county court last night and
this morning and entering pleas Of guilty to the
charges against them.
''Shortly after o'clock yesterday afternoon
seven Of the men appeared before Judge Rice and
signed pleas acknowledging their guilt on the first
five counts Of each Indictment. Those who entered
these pleas were John Potts, Harry Potts. Mike
Brechwald, Henry Gardt R. R. Leurance Roy Dean
and Mike Morrissey. This morning L. A. Leurance
and Frank Pickrel entered similar pleas.
Each Heavily Fined
Judge Rice's verdict in each case was fine Of
800 apiece, and the payment Of the COSTS which
done in each case Each mans fine amounted
to $1S0.85. The county clerks office busy
place for few minutes after the men pleaded
guilty. Over 1000 passed over the counter in
about ten minutes.
"The who have been fined are bound by an
other plea which will prevent their selling liquor for
the next eighteen months at least. They were pre-
sented with plea in which they acknowledged that
they had been the keepers of nuisances,
charged in the indictments, and in this they agreed
to keep their places shut. Now, if they found
selling again contrary to law, the states attorney
will simply file his information, together with this
plea and the will be brought into court without
waiting for the grand jury to indict and they
warned by the judge that if this happened they
would be given chance to pay another substantial
fine and, in addition, would be committed to the

Same was Sustained Beyond Doubt Last Week.
RECORD BREAKING CROWDS EVERY DAY
Every Department Teemed With Exhibits not to be tx
CeIIed Anywhere in the World
SPLENDID Races, Baseball and Attractions

Throughout the long and honorable
career of the Mineral Point Fair asso-
citation it has been the Tribune's pleas
ant duty once a year to speak in praise
of its success and management. Of the
tbirty-eight consecutive meetings not
one he's passed without every obligation
having been paid dollar for dollar, and
promptly. What a grand record Well
has the association earned the proud
title Of "old reliable.
The fair Of 1908, held last week, was
no exception, in common parlance. But
II was an exception, in that it was a
distinct record breaker in various ways.
The attendance was greater, and in
consequence the receipts were greater
The number Of exhibits in all depart
nents was greater and the quality as
much better as education and skill along
the lines Of progression would permit,
Racing. base ball and special attractions
were as good as viii be witnessed al

To go into detail and give due justice

space win scarce permit.
Of horses Of every breed the number
of exhibits was large and the excel
lence and worth are equal to the best
to be found anywhere in any country.
The same can be said of the cattle.
There possibly were fewer sheep anC
hogs than on some previous years, but
the merit Of those shown cannot be i'm.
proved upon. The poultry exhibit wal
the largest in the history of the fair
