NO POLITICS AT VALLEY FAIR.
Directors Declined to Allow Gov. Hiram,
johnson, Progressive Nominee for Vice
President, to Make Address.

PRESIDENT, to Make Address.
The Progressives of this locality.
through e. G.. Chace, asked the directors
OF the Valley Fair associa ton this week.
for permission for Gov. Hiram NJ John
son OF California, Progressive nominee
for vice president, to speak on the fair
grounds one day next week, probably
wednesday. The governor will devote
one day to this state on the tour which
he is now making. The members of the
party thought he would be a drawing
card for the fair and would be able to
expound the principles of the Progress
sive party to a large crowd of the
voters of Windham county.
In meeting of the board of directors
mental to the best interests of the fair
to allow any speaking on the grounds of
political nature and that 1t would be
unwise to establish a precedent by al
lowing politics to be discussed on the
grounds, as the practice might develop
in years to come and change the fair
into three-day political revival by all
parties. The directors also decided that
under no circumstances would they al
low speaking of any nature during the
time Of racing as it would interfere with
ethe horses and get the racing men at
odds with the association. This has
been the experience elsewhere. They re-
fuse to look at II from the box office
point Of view as they think that politics
and fairs do not mix well, Political par
ties of all kinds will be barred from
having speakers at the fair by the pres
ent board OF directors.
