The Great Roanoke Fair.

Uniting the experience of ten years
with the expenditure of thousands of
dollars, the Great Roanoke Fair, Roa-
noke, Virginia. September "a, 25, &c
and 9th, will present by far the best
fair in the state this fall. With the
facilities doubled and the demand for
space for exhibit even exceeding the ad-
ditional area, visitors to the Great Roa-
noke Fair will stand amazed at the pro-
gress of the fair since ten years ago
when set precedent that mas followed
by many many cities and counties in the
state and revived the annual fairs. 1t
may be said that the Great Roanoke
Fair aroused the enthusiasm which hss
rejuvenated the Virginia State Fair.
To do this has required remarkable bust.
ness tact and the bringing together of
the farmer and the manufacturer. The
Great Roanoke Fair is for education
and then for pleasure. Education is for
the farmer who goes to see what pro-
gcess the world has made since an year
RgO The fair is better than farmers
institute in that, it gives vast display
of the work of other members of the
craft Of tilling the soil, and it brings
pleasure of a sort that is not harmful
aud is necessary after the long siege of
spring and summer work. The Grea-
Roanoke Fair offers scores on amuse-
ments ON dustless mid-way-a street
daily sprinkied with oil-and often dur
ing the days and nights, for the fair is
continuous. free attractions will be seen
and band concerts heard. The railroads
entering Roanoke are making special
rates in highland Virginia, ard the
hotels and boarding houses Will not
advance their usual charges for guests.
Roanoke has always extended a well
come to strangers but never more than
during the time of the Great Roanoke
Fair. If any information is desired
about premium lists, exhibits or any
thing of local interest it will be given
upon application to l. A. SchoIz, Sec
retary, Great Roanoke Fair, Roanoke,

There will no doubt be large turn

Three colcred prisoners, Will Sanders,
Charles Wilson and Jim Kingston, made
their escape from the county Jail at this
place early last Sunday morning by
springing the bar in the door of the jail,
which admitted them into the corridor.
Then by loosening bar in the rear win

ROSh HaShaaah.

The Jewish New Y ear, or Rosh Hash
ansh is being observed to-6Sy by He
brews throughout the worIG. Like ali
Jewish holidays it is reck oned from
evening to evening and its in tial service
was held last evening. While, owing to
the variance between the solar and

definitely set in the Jewish calendar as

The nature of the festival is what its
name signifies, i. E., marking of the
passing of time and motion of uncer-
tain tenure of human life. 1t does not
commemorate any historical incident.
Nor does it make its appeal 20 the aeiifsss'
consciousness of the Jews It's appeal
is entirely to the individual conscience.

be responded to by all religionists OF

The day is observed seriously and
solemuly. 1t emphasizes the sense of
divine guidance, and. at the same time.
of human responsibility. TIE blowing
OF the trumpet, the shofa- or hams
horn, is the peculiar service of 10 dav.
It Is the bugle-c call of the spirit, arous-

Miss Elizabeth Jordan gave dramatic

MAINE SWINGS BACK
TO GRAND OLD PARTY
Returns TO Republican Fold After Two Years
Wandering in Democratic Wilderness
Moose and Elephant Unite 10 Win.

"As Maine goes, so goes the Union, 1"
has been political axiom for the past
half century. Based on this well known
saying, it is safe to say that the repub-
icans will be victorious in November,
for IN the election held in that state on
Monday the republicans won back the
governOrship, secured three out of the
four congressman and a sufficient ma
jJrity in both branches of the legisla-
ture 60 assure the election of Edwin c.
Burleigh to the United States senate
to succeed Obadiah A. Gardner, the
present democratic incumbent.
1t was straight fight between the
two oldparties, the progressive not hav-
ing ticket in the field, and majority of
the bull moose voters united with the
republicans to redeem the state from
democratic misrule. With only five
small precincts missing, which in 1910
cast sixty-six republican and forty-four
democratic votes, the result is as fol-
lowe for governor:
Haines, republican, ........7O,S ,SSU
Plaisted, democrat, t,.......6 81, ,848
This vote gives the republican candi.
date plurality of 3,032 The demo-
cratic plurality in the state two years
ago was $500.
Complete legislative returns show
there will be twenty-three republicans
to eight democrats in the state senate,
and seventy-nine republicans to seventy
two democrats in the lower house. This
gives the republicans 1O2 votes on joint
ballot to so for the democrats. Maine
will, therefore, be republican in every
department of government for the next
two years.
