credit for their efforts in making the

FAVORABLE MENTION
OF the First and Best Fair by the
Press and the People.

Nearly all of our local exchanges of
last week contained favorable mention
of the 1909 Southwestern Wisconsin
Fair.
1t was good Fair, and to be told so
by the press and the people in general,
is most pleasing. There has been no
adverse criticism of the Fair by any
one, so far as the Democrat is informed.
In was, besides being great exhibition
of the industrial products of our blue
grass region a reunion of the people OF
wide extent of territory around about
Mineral Point, and entertainment was
furnished for all during every hour of
the Fair. People departed for their
homes each day saying that Mineral
Point does things right. A surprise
was prepared for visitors, it being the
street illumination during the evenings
Of the Fair. 1t was made possible by the
fact that we have a firstclass electrical
plant. High and Commerce streets
were brilliantly lighted, and the effect
was beautiful. The streets were spanned
by six festoOns of electric bulbs, each
festoon having fifty bulbs, making three
lights in all. The streets and
business house were lighted as though
it were midday.
The Fair, as a whole, convinced Wis
itors that Mineral Point is abreast of
the times in material progress. A good
feeling exists between Mineral Point
and all nearby towns. This was shown
by the cordial welcome extended by the
residents of these towns to the business

Wilson as an Umpire.

Amasa Cobb Wilson, an old Mineral
Point boy, but whose home is now in
Minneapolis won deserved praise for
the fair and impartial manner in which
he umpired the ball games during the
Southwestern Wisconsin Fairs of 1908
and 1909. He was firm in his decisions
and always aimed to be right. Baseball
enthusiasts highly commend his work.
From The Tribune of last week we take
the following:
'tAmasa Wilson, former citizen of
Mineral Point, now of Minneapolis,
served as umpire for all the games. He
displayed splendid adaptability, being
active and alert and controlled the
players to a nicely. 1t is doubtful if
any person could give more general
satisfaction in that capacity.

He further says that people who live in
