Agricultural association at their meet
ing Saturday to hold two days ex-
position this fall, the dates decided up
on being Friday and Saturday Sepiem-
Der 20 and 81. The association, which

ond annual fair a success.
1t was decided at Saturdays session
to have the rules governing exhibits
conform as nearly as possible with
those of the county fair, to be held at
Moscow, the week CT September 23d
Last year the upper Potlatch exhibit
was excluded from many contests
that it might otherwise have won but
for the. fact that the, rules governing
the number of each exhibit 1T the
county fair had not been observed
Many plates of fruit and many other

A lot of petty office seekers, both
in Latah and other counties of the
state, are this year to run for the state
legislature and the state senate and
their sole hope of election is based On
Borah's popularity. They expect to
ride into office on the senator's coat
tail. But the cloth may rip. There
are those who will not swallow Bcrah
plastered with political misfits. There
are more than 200 republicans in Mos
COW who will not vote for some of
the republican legislative ticket as it
is now presented. Certainly there is
decent legislative material in Latah
county. Why not give the republicans
an opportunity to vote the ticket? If
such a condition exists all over the
state Borah's defeat is certain.
