The final meeting Of the iair
committee was held Thursday
afternoon at this Office with all
members Of the committee present
except two.
rhe program was changed in
too and will, the News believes
b, more satisfactory than the
original idea.
On account OF some misundcr.
standing OF the stockholders OF the
base ball association, as to the
rental oil the bali park Tor the pur-
pose OF holding the iair there, the
committee decided 10 bring it off
closer to town, and has leased the
skating rink for an exhibit build
ing and will tit II up for that pur.
pose. Base ball, racing, tourna'
ment riding, etc., will be dispens-
ed with and the program cut to
speaking, music, exhibits, barbe.
cue and trades display parade.
Everything under charge OF the
isir committee will be tree to
everybody. No charge will be
made for entrance to exhibit hall,
OF Tor placing exhibits. This, the
News believes is better plan
since most oi our farmers are not
Just in the condition financially to
dig down into their pockets tor n
quarter OF a dollar for themselves
and family twice a day to enter
the fair grounds.
