WHAT DO YOU SAY ABOUT THE
 STATE FAIR?
Isn't It High Time the People of Arkansas Were Waking Up and
 Getting in the Procession of Prog ress With Other hustIine States?

AS a citizen what do you say about this? AS farmer, merchant, manu- facturer or professional man, what do you say? Do you want to see the Arkansas State Fair grow in extent of exhibits and widen i'll scope of 1n- fluence and usefulness? How much have you helped in the past to bring this about, and how much are you going to do aaSDg this line this year! Let us have q little quiet heart-to- heart talk about it. Every progress eve state in the Union has state fair. Most of them have great expo- sitions. They have been made so by popular interest taken by the people and by liberal legislative aid. Moth ing inspires and stimulates progress sive effort, imparts industrial educa- ticn or introduces advanced methods of production, like a high-class public fair No agency is more potent as an tention of the world to the resources and advantages of state or section of state. To all of this you readily assent. Then won't you determine right now, to become a factor in the Arkansas State Fair this year? Don't think of it as "Hot Springs fair" It was never so designated. It is local to Hot Springs only in the fact that it is held there. But this is a for tunate circumstance to the state, for more strangers from all sections of the country visit Hot Springs, than any other city in the state. and hence have chance to learn of our mar vicious resources, which otherwise they would never hear of. While the citizens of Hot Springs have at their own expense maintained the fair for six years, their design is, and has been, for it to be in all respects what the name implies-a State Fair. Cant you show something worth while at the fair this fall? Won't you do SO? At least, you can attend and see the big show. Write for premium list

ELECTRIC CHURCH CROSS.

The gilded cross, 12 feet high by 9 feet wide, on the great steeple of St. Mels church, Chicago, has its north and south faces outlined with 70 electric incandescent lamps, for illumination during church festivals. The effect is very striking, even at great distances. The Louisville Ro- maa Catholic cathedral and other churches will probably follow suit, as the innovation is giving rise to favorable comment among church pecple.-Popular Mechanics.

SUPPORT YOUR COUNTY FAIR
1t Reflects Local Enterprise and Pub He Pride. It stimulates Public
 Progress.

If your county is going to have a fair this fall, give it your actual and moral support. Be one to do some thing towards it's success. You can select something from among the best of your products to exhibit. Take 1t to your fair. You may win prize, and if you do it will stimulate others to better efforts. The county fair is to the industrial nature of a commu- nity what good school is to its edu- cational nature, and big revival to its moral nature. If you don't win a prize you will be stimulated by the success of your neighbor, and make better efforts next year. Every good county fair is worth to its county ten times what 1t costs. The county fair should also be made an auxiliary of the state fair. It should be feeder to the State Fair as the short lines are to the trunk lines of railroad. From the county fair the best ex- hibits should be sent to the State Fair. That helps to put your county and town on the map, and advertise it to the world. Who can tell the amount of money and thrifty immi- grafton good exhibit at the State Fair may bring to your section. This is the way to build up your section and promote the common prosperity of your people.

the years prior to the exposure in 1907.
"Havemeyer never remained long at
the DOCKS" said splitter.
II saw him there once during "A strike;
on another occasion when there was
some storm trouble interfering with
shipping, and once when he brought his
son down TO teach him the business"
Representative Fordney was opposed
10 requiring the witness to testify, but
at an executive session the committee
decided to require an answer.
That the COY cgnmcnt has erred In its
facts in the formal petition seeking the
dissolution OF the American Sugar Re
1n'ng Company, was the declaration of
Mr.. Post.
Mr.. Post natly denied the allegation
contained IN the Governments petition
tina he was the agency through which
in 1894 an attempt was made by W.
great refining companies to control the
sugar market.
The denial came when Chairman
Hardwick OF the committee questioned
Mr.. Post as to the alleged manner In
NllNl ne, as tlt ithu VI the Nil .pllil
Sugar Refining Company, IN 1894 effected
a deal by which the company and the
American Sugar Refining Company
agreed to limit the output OF refined
sugar and fix prices.
There is no foundation for that" de-
clarcd Mr.. Post.
Don't you know anything about such
an pgreemont?' urged Chairman Hard
wick.
II read that, but | can't imagine to
what they refer"
The organization Of the New Jersey
corporation was taken up. The clpitali-
cation OF the new company, Mr.. post
testified, was t2D,0o0,010, divided equally
between preferred and common stock.
The cpmpanics taken IN were capitalize
at between 3.000, 600 and Si.oo0,D0.

HE HAD TALKED IT OVER WITH
HAvEMEYER.

Representative Madison subjected the
witness to a rigid examination. In re-
sponse TO his question Mr.. Post said
that after the organization of the Ma
tional Sugar Refining Company the
board of directors issued SS,j0N.Oo0 pre-
ferred stock to take up the stock on
which he held options and then issued
the sl0,000,00 common stock 10 himself.
THE issuance OF common stock under
such circumstance was quite common
I'm those days" san Mr., Post.
Didn't you really, rs holder of the
options, 60 to yourself, as president OF
the new company, and agree to issue
yourself $40, 600 DOOR" inquired Repre-
sentative Madison.
Mr.. Posts attorney interrupted to
complain hat the Congressman was
unfair to the witness.
"No, sir, I went to the Board OF III
rectors." responded Mr.. Post.
"Well, didn't you control h Board
Of Directors9"
"~Probably."
"And all this had been planned by
Mr.. Havemoysr and yourself long In
ADVANCE"
1--WE had talked 1t over.'
About two years after Mr.. Post had
turned the stock over to Nj. Heve-
meyer, the latter gave the former
$500 900 worth OF tho stock, according
to the testimony to-day.
