to see others but the above will
show something of what the peo-
pie think about it. There was an
almost invariable expression
that we needed a better enter

of Randall county to make the
matter a success, and Randall
county and Canyon City will do
it.
The Randall County news. (Canyon City, Tex.) 1908-1926, 1908-12-18

ticularly during the past four
months the largest number of
actual settlers have bought land
in Randall county than ever be-
fore and they are moving here
at rate that is surprising to
the uniformed.
This week there are arrange
ments being made for solid
train of cars of household goods
from Wisner, Nebraska, to Can
yon City, and it is very probable
that the train will be increased
to twenty-one cars. This train
of people with their belongings
are scheduled to leave Wisner
during the early part of next
month and it is expected that it
will take about four days to
make the trip.
Most of these people are to To-
cate within nine miles of Canyon
City, number of them going to
lands in the Block pasture, some
out towards Umbarger and some
south of the CITY.
To the News reporter, one of
our leading citizens said:
Canyon City has chance to
do some very effective advertis-
ing if they take advantage of it.
The city should place banners
on the cars showing that the
train was bound for Canyon City
and Randall county in the Pan
handle of Texas. The people
along the railroad over which the
train is to come should be mott
fed so that they could see that
the train was an actual fact and
it would not be a bad idea for the
town to turn out zen masse" to
greet these people when they
arrive. This is the kind of bust
ness that Randall County wants
and if the people know that
others are coming to this county
and those who come know that
they are received with a hearty
welcome, it will not be long un-
til farmers will come in trains
with two sections"

COMMITTEE FOR
ANNUAL REUNION
CITIZENS MEETING APPOINTS DlRECTIN
BODY FOR NEXT YEARS CELE-
BRATl0N HERE.
Surplus From Last Reunion Amounts to S240
Statement Of What Should Be Done
Made by Citizens.

According to announcement a
citizens meeting was held at the
court house to hear the report of
the reunion committee which had
in charge the annual picnic, re-
union and fair held in this city
last August and to elect the di-
rectors for the ensuing year
The committee for last year con-
sisted of George A. Brandon, j.
Fl. Garrison, j. D. Gam BILE,
Travis Shaw, j. G. Hunt, G. p.

bolt.
When the time for the meet
ing came quite a representative
crowd was present and Judge
Brandon presided over the meet
ing in the absence of Judge j. c..
Hunt, the chairman of the com
mittee. The meeting was a
short and decisive one every
thing working very harmoni-
ouSly.
The report of the committee
made by the treasurer showed a
balance of cash in hand amount
ing to S255.04 against which
there are two outstanding ac-
counts amounting to about So,
which would leave a net balance
of about $4,000. The report of
this committee was, by resolu-
ton, accepted and the thanks of
the citizens rendered them for
their faithful services.
The next matter taken up was
the selection of the members of
the committee for the next year
and after the vote was an
nounced, l.. e. Cowling, Travis

than ever before. Get up in the
collar, get in lire and every fell
low try to bring something that
will attract somebody else.
w. d. Scott, county attorney
We ought to have a better one
than ever. The merchants should
give a parade and then there
should be a floral hall for the eX-
hibition of flowers. 1t will create
an interest in flowers about the
home.
p. II. Young, county treasurer
Give the people more free en-
tertainment. They kicked on
paying so much last year.
w. S. Keiser, real estate-The
thought suggests itself to me
for better fair exhibits. From
these exhibits we could select a
general exhibit to send to Dallas.
No county on the Plains can
raise more or better products
and we ought to be at our cele-
bratiCn and at the state fair at
Dallas with the goods to show it.
f.. l.. Shil1iett, real estate
Let's have everything. Enter
tain the people both by day and
at night. Turn the people loose.
r. f. Redirect our home peo-
pie more interested.
Il. H. Wright, banker-Have
more attractions. Get a carnival
company to come here. Get
good farm exhibits and have a
great deal to see.
|. l.. Hunt, banker-lt is hard
to suggest just what to do. Get
the people of the county inter
ested first.
Oscar Hunt, pos t IN t err
Don't think the reunion could
hardly be worse. The people
want more entertainment.
Newt Reeves, ranchman--Let
the people give more money so
that the committee can do some
thing that is big,
w. II. Moreland, merchant
Get Molly Bailey's show to come
back.
j. H. lowell, city marshal
The people in this country like
good horses and some good races
will create an interest.
U. S. Gober, real estate-Give
us more and better shows.

Brandon and r. A. Terrill were
declared elected. The time of
holding the celebration was left
entirely in the hands of the com
mittee as was all things pertain
ing to the matter.
A meeting of the directors has
not yet been held and therefore
the various officers have not as
yet been named. OF course moth
ing definite has been decided
upon as a plan of action for the
next years entertainment, but
from what we can hear from
some of the members there is
going to be a decided effort
made for a change in the entire
program which has heretofore
been on somewhat of the same
order each year. A great deal
more attention will be paid to
the exhibits of farm and garden
products as well as live stock
and poultry. Some Of the mem
bers state that they expect to
get out a list of the premiums
early in the year in order that
every farmer and every person
in the county might be able to
compete in the various items
should they so desire.
In order that some expression
of sentiment regarding the mat
ter might be had the News re-
porter questioned number Of
the citizens of the town last
Tuesday morning relative to
what could be done to create
new interest in the affair and
some very good suggestions were
offered and we give a few of the
suggestions made below:
r. H. Sanford, sheriff-Get to
work early and secure two or
three good speakers of National
reputation, 1t will cost money
but it will bring the crowd. Have
some good races. Give us more
general exhibit of farm products
and live stock thereby creating a
great interest in successful farm
ing.
, Geo. A. Brandon, attorney
Hold the meeting about the mid
die of September and have better
agricultural exhibits.

everything possible to help the
matter along.
G.. S. Ballard, farmer-Show

make more of fair out of it.
