NOT so MISERABLE AS 1T LOOKS

The Marion County Fair Association
has shown a miserable policy to begin
with, by going away from home to
have the premium list printed, when
there are two finely equipped printing
offices in Ocala. The 'can get il done
cheaper elsewhere" excuse is an ex-
tremely poor one. and evidences poor
management right fro mthe start. No
matter what the Star or Banner
charged for the work. it should have
been given to one of these Offices
When an outsider acquainted with Ma
rion reads the premium list, and finds
it not a production of Marion county,
he doubts the genuineness of the ex-
hibits, and will become Disguised with
the whole affair. The Banner and
Star will be expected to contribute
hundreds of dollars in free advertising,
but when they ought to be partly
compensated, and materially add to the
exhibits of advantages in Marion coun-
ty. outsiders nests have to be feather
ed, and these outsiders don't care a
rap for, and never contributed a dol
lar to the welfare of Marion county,
and never will. We have felt friendly
to the fair to be held in our sister
county, and in our humble way ex-
pected to do all in our power to aid
in its success, without hope of fee or
reward, but this first act upon the
part of the management has caused
us to lose our interest. and there will
be many others it Citrus county in
the same boat. The Banner and Star
will doubtless submit to the wrong for
the sake of harmony, but outsiders
will not.-Inverness Chronicle.
The Inverness Chronicle is some
what off it's base
In the first place, the Marion Coun-
ty Fair Association. through it's presi-
dent and secretary, Messrs. Geo. X
Robinson and D. S. williams. who are
the whole push when it comes to pro-
noting the fair, succeeded in getting
Messrs. Emerson and Robinson, of
Jacksonville, to get out freq of cost to
the Marion County Fair Association
the premium list of said fair. These
young men promised to distribute 5000
copies of same over Marion and con-
tiguous counties for twenty five per
cent of the gross advertising patron
agile they could secure for said prem
ium list.
Now this is not bad or a mad or a
miserable policy. 1t is a good long
headed business proposition and if
carried out as stated will save the as
ISOLATION at least $3.50; worth saving,
when the limited amount of money on
hand to carry our the fair project Is
considered.
This being the case. will be Inver-
ness Chronicle please curb its resent
ment toward the Marion County Fair
Association and do all in its power to
aid Marion county in making a splen-
did exhibit and send as many people
as possible from Citrus county to see
the fair.
The Star has no kick coming on the
matter of the premium list and so
stated several weeks ago. What we
want is to make the fair a success
and we believe this matter of printing
the liSt~at no cost to the association
is means 10 that end-if it was done
outside of Marion.

HOG AND HOMINY

The New Orleans Picayune says:
There is now every reason why the
South should become as famous in
pork packing as are Chicago. Omaha
and Kansas City. All that is neces-
Sary is to take up the business and
carry ii on. We make our own corn.
Let us make our own bacon. When
the South shall produce ner own hog
and hominy she will have achieved
real independence of the North"

DAKOTA CITY PIONEERS PICNIC
senator BurIsett Delivers the Prin-
cIpaI Address.

DAKOTA CITY. Eeb, Aug. S.-tspeclal)
The Dakota County Pioneers and OLD set
tiers association, the pioneer association
Of its kind in Nebraska, held its twenty
seventh annual reunion and picnic in Cht-
ton park, adjoining this place today the
day was an ideal one and the crowd was
the largest ever assembled, at 2 o'clock
having reached its maximum, the attend
ance at that time being estimated at 10000.
The Emerson band OF twenty pieces fur
nished the music. The invocation was pro-
nounced by Rev. c. F. Mead Of South Sioux
City. Barney Gribble, now serving his sec
ond term as president Of the association,
delivered the address Of welcome. and
urged the young settlers 10 prepare to take
over the management OF the association al
the old pioneers were fast answering 10
their final summon He stated that the
purpose Of the organization was not for
financial gain. but that the old as we'll
as new settlers might mingle together to
renew old acquaintances and form new
ones.
The address OF the day was delivered by
Senator Elmer J. Burkett, and although

he had to talk against the noise produced
by a steam m-erry-go-round and band OF
vaudeville performers, he made himself ef-
fectively heard by thousands OF people.
and delivered a most pleasing address.
His address was extemporaneous and was
along the line OF thought that while the
old settlers had done much to make the
state of Nebraska what II is today, there
was yet plenty for the younger settler to
do in the developing of the state and maxi
ing it still better by modern agricultural
methods and modern improvements in every
line of work. Senator Burkett spoke for
over an hour, keeping the closest attention
Of his hearers.
The afternoon was devoted to sports OF
various kinds. Dakota City and South
Sioux City clubs played ball and two horse
races were pulled off. The day closed with
a band concert on the opera house campus
in the evening, ollowed by the annual old
settlers dance.

the South Omaha Taft club at Masonic
han. on account Of the large turnout or
candidates the speaking began promptly at

had been introduced to the large and en-
thusiAstic audience. All of the candidates,
and noticeably these of South Omaha, W.

Brewer, received much applause on thei'
appearance. These men were called early
in the evening, so that they could attend
a big rally held in Omaha.
The speech of A. w. Jefferis was the
leading effort OF the evening, although the
candidate for congress realized that with
go many to speak he must make his re-
marks as brief as possible, He discussed
some of the national issues briefly. and
pointed out some Of the principal differ
ences between the records Of the two lead
Ing parties. He punctured the peoples
rule" plank Of the democrats in a way
which pleased those present. He spent
some little time in discussing his reasons
for entering the congressional race at this
time. He said he had made considerable
study Of the needs OF this district, and that
he realized that they were greater h
the needs # any other district in the state.
He said this was because of the metropolis
and the location Of so many large and vital
interests here. He, pledged himself to have
these needs ever in mind. lie touched
briefly on the river navigation and the
better control OF corporations, such as
rallrC ads and interstate dealers.
