PUSH THE COUNTY FAIR.

If Faulkner county's first annual fair is to be the success that 1t ought to be, it must have the unit ed support cf every progressive man, woman, boy and girl in the county. It needs this support every day from now until the last day of the fair. A few men are today sacrificing their time and labor that the fair may be a success. A few others are taking an active interest in the enterprise. But the majority of the people are not so enthusiastic as they should be. They do not realize what the talr will mean to Faulkner county. Its benefit will extend more to the rural districts than to Conway. Not one of the stockholders ex- poets ever to realize a dollar of dividends.
 The fair, if it is properly support ed, will do more for the upbuilding of the county along educational, agricultural and commercial lines than would be possible in any other way with like expenditure of money. It will also be the best possible means of promoting better social relations between the people of the county. And 1t will be an occasion of wholesome amusement. of hearty good fun that will tend to make us all forget the cares of the long. hard year s work that has gone before 1t.
 Let every farmer in the county begin to prepare some sort of an exhibit for the fair, so that he can take a personal pride in it. It matters not how inferior the things around your home may seem to

" It will be day for the thousands of people who have formerly lived ill Faulkner county to come back home, to see the old folks again and to see what we have done since they left A program especially for these friends of ours will be prepared and we are sure it will interest them. Every person ill the county has friends, former neighbors and relatives who used to live here and whom they would be glad to see here again. Write to them that we are going to have big county fair and that you want them to come. You'll be surprised to know how many will accept the invitation.

of reception, at which all the leading.
people of Hawaii have been present,
has been observed in honor of the
natal day of the German Emperor, but
none more gorgeous have been given
that the one at which Acting Consul

pleasure and significance of the day,
as he is the direct local representative
of the German Empire. Attaches of
the consulate and members of the
house of Hackfeld assisted Mr.. Hack.

cation from MIR. Lever, who complained tnat
Mr.. Daniel had not been fair 10 him, Mr..
Daniel writes:
To the Editor OF The Herald:
The communication ,of Representative
Lever in The Herald OF April ~ has just
come to my attention. Your editorial reply,
printed IN the same issue. was entirely sum-
cient, OF course, and demonstrates the poV,
erty of excuse that MIR. Lever has 'offeied
mand Of the democratic platform OF 1908 that
lumber be placed on the Tree list. .
However, With reference to bis charge mat
l have been unfair 10 him 10 my dispatches,
IN that l did not give him credit for his light
Tor the farmer In connection with basic Stag
aud potash salts, there Is something 10 be
said which MI, Lever did not say, and that
IL, that there was no such light.
The third section OF the Payne tariff bill
contained what is generally referred TO as
the maximum aud minimum" provision.
Mr.. Levers own statement OF the working

matter. should, to secure some important
treaty right, give the least concession upon
the least article OF trade, and to that extent

TO imports from her."
Potash salts, wae in the Payne bill. placed
under the working OF this provision. Elton

and Others first called attention TO IL and IL
was Immediately stated by the members OF
the ways and means committee, who had
framed the bill, that It was an error and
would be corrected, SO that these articles
should be absolutely upon the free list. La.
Ter MIR. Lever became active. He hunted up
the newspaper men, n began TO talk OF the
great fight in which he was engaged. He
got into communication with prominent
South Carolinans, and made them acquain.
ted with his great struggle Tor the southern
farmer. He gave out interviews and made a
speech on the floor OF the house. protesting
vehemently against this provision OF the
Payne bill, which he called a Joker. All
THIS be II remembered, was after 1t was pos.
lively known tba, the maximum and MIMI
mum provision was not intended to apply
10 potash salts or any other fertilizer In
gradients and there was positively no oppo-
siiion TO the correction OF the error which
had been discovered in the bill.
