Midway a Failure

The midway has been given trial
of two years at the Valley fair and, as
a feature, it has proved failure.
There are some legitimate attractions
like the Ferris wheel and merry-go-
round, which furnish amusement for
the children which can be retained TO
advantage, but the cheap vaudeville
shows ind the so-called fakirs are a
blemish on the high grade agricultur-
al fair. With the present quarters at
the fair ground there is no place for
midway without making it conspio-
(1ous. The bankers in front of the
tents are within sight and hearing of
everybody going and coming, and
their Drazen cries make a discordant
din from the opening to the closing
of the fair There is no value receiy-
ed for the dimes which people pay to
see these SHOWS, and it is serious
question whether the fair association
is gamer financially by allowing
the shows to exhibit Many people
come to the fair the first day, squan-
dering their dimes on one attraction
after another, and on the following
days keep away from the fair for the
reason that they have spent all the
money they can AFFORD TO part with
With the falSirs eliminated they would
spend more time inspecting the ex-
hibits which have an educational val

missions a second time. The fair

Washington, d. c. Feb. lathe
announcement that the congressional
committee has determined to recon-
mend the abolition of the lumber tar
if on all grades has brought to
Washington lobby of lumbermen
from all parts OF the country.
The lumber Interests will use the
argument that if congress adopts the
recommendations the United States
lumber industry will be dealt blow
from which it will never recover. The
lumbermen are particularly anxious
to have the tariff preserved on low
grades. They say that If 1t is ad-
mitted free Canadians will flood the
American markets.
Never i'm the history of any indus
try in the United States has such rad
ical action been recommended by a
congressional committee.
1t is understood that Chief Forest
er Pinchot has influenced the COM
mittee to make the recommendation.
Pinchot believes that with a free or
low grade of tariff the American for
ests will be conserved as in no other
way.
