TO SELL LIQUOR
At FAIR GROUNDS
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF AS
ISOLATION MEETS AND DE-
CIDEs QUESTION.
GIVES ITS REA SONS
HAS ENTERED INTO CONTRACTS
AND SALE is NOT CONSIDERED
CONDUCIVE TO INTEM-
PERANCE.

Liquor will be sold at the State
fair grounds this fall as I'm previous
wears, according TO the decision
reached by the executive COMMITTEES
of the association yesterday after
noon, with the difference that this
year the sale will be directly under
control Of the board OF directors
and not by eoncessionaires.
This decision was made known last
night when a reply to the petition OF
Isaac Diggs. representing a commit
tee of laymen which opposes its sale,
was given to The yirgsnisn. The re
ply is addressed to Mr.. Diggs,
The statement says that the asso-
citation had entered into contracts
for the safe OF ftQuUr- before the
petition of the laymen's committee
was presented: that the sale of liquor
at the fair is not conducive TO intern
perance; that the association Will
throw every safeguard around its
sale, and that Mr. Diggs has mads
the matter public through the press
before receiving an answer to his
petition.
Thinks Fair Not the Place.
MIR. Diggs said last night that he
believed that the fair grounds waa
not the proper place for the sale of
liquor and that he believed that the
association should find other means
for paving expenses than by engaging
In the sale of liquor. Contrary to
expectations the committee did not
appear before the executive commit
tee yesterday afternoon, Mr.. Diggs
having been notified Monday that it
would be unnecessary. Mr.. Diggs
stated that he had been informed that
the executive committee would not
decide the question being without au-
thority TO act in the matter He did
not know whether his : committee
would appear before the board of
directors at its next meeting. but
thought it probable that 1t would do
so. This statement was made by Mr..
Diggs in ignorance OF the fact that
the executive committee had taken
action. 1t Is not probable that the
association will be approached fur
Their In the matter by either the lay
men or, the ministers.
The Richmond Ministerial union
adopted resolutions OF, protest yester-
day morning against the sale of liquor
at the fair grounds. The resolution
read as follows:
Resolved, That We endorse the
ing liquor at'our State fair. and trust
that the directors OF the fair win de-
