The Texas Fairs

The Texas Commercial Secre-
taries and Business Mems Asso-
citation has taken census of
county and district fair organi-
cations and reports that ninety
two fairs will be held in Texas
this fall, 5l82 premiums will be
offered and S175. 900 distributed
as prizes.
The fair is an industrial edu-
Gator and advertising medium is
without a peer. 1t is the farmers
show window, the manufacture
er's sample room, the miners
laboratory and the demonstra-
ton counter Of industry. The
time was when red lemonade,
hobby horses and the call of the
fakir were Leading features of
the fair but the dumb eloquence
of fruit and vegetables has
drowned the voice of the peanut
orator; the low of blooded kline
is more thrilling than the music
of the merry-go-round and
modern farm machinery is more
interesting than the balloon as
cension.
The country fair is a great
civilizer and is doing more to
promote our progress than any
other single influence in Texas.

Democratic Progressive Party

The Democratic party, with
its progressive candidates ano
progressive platform, is the rea
progressive party of this nation.
The voters must not lose sight
of this fact.
Unchanged in name. un-
changed in its great funda-
mental principles, the demo-
cratic party represents the
largest fighting unit for pro-
gressive reforms. Through it.
the progressives of all parties
can find the surest hope of VIC
tory for their cause.
The progressive forces made
the fight in the Democratic
party and won. By securing cor
troll of a great party organi-
zation. and backed by the pres
tige it gives them, they are in
a position to give the progress
sive cause its most certain
triumph. The Democratic party
invites the progressives of all
parties to share in this victory,
and to join them in securing
a victory this fall that will for
ever stamp progressive ideas as
a part of the policy of this
nation.
Thousands of earnest Repub-
leans made the fight in their
own party and lost. They rec
ognize that the organization of
a new party will only serve to
make the progressive cause
weaker and the failure more
complete. They realize the
Democratic party of today is the
party in which to concentrate
the progressive strength. They
also recognize that a vote for the
Democratic party this fall is a
vote to serve notice on their own
party that it must be pro-
gressive in the future in order
to win their support.
The time is ripe for the for
ward progressive movement and
every worker should get in line.
The predatory interests will
make a desperate effort to beat
the Democratic party because
they recognize in IT the greatest
foe of special privilege. There
