bles or racks for the exhibits;
furnish newspaper publicity; and
that reasonable hotel rates be
secured, especially to see that
prices are not raised. The Field
Crop Breeders association would
give 500 toward the small cash
prizes that would have to be Of
fered in addition to the other
premiums. The $500 given by
the State Fair association is
used up in publishing the an
nual reports and by other ex-
penses.
The matter was talked over,
and the advisory committee ia
vored trying to meet the re-
quirements, but as written
contract has to be entered into, it
was decided to be on the safe side
and try to secure the premiums
and cash before giving a definite
answer.
1t was decided to hold an
other meeting just as soon as
all of the members are in the
city-perhaps today or tomorrow
when plan of securing the
premiums will be adopted, COM
mittees appointed, etc. 1t is
thought that a large part of the
premiums will be put up by
wholesale firms and manufacture
ers having connections in Man
kato. The business men will all
have to take hold in order to
make the matter a success, and
all will have to offer something.
Here is a chance to do the. city
and especially the farming com
munity adjacent a great deal Of
good. The premium list must be
out by January /, so there is
no time to lose.

The safety first" slogan has been
adopted by the Chicago, Milwaukee

tons bearing the inscription are now

the safety bureau the Milwaukee is
following the lead of other import
ant roads which have proven by ac-
tual demonstration that property loss
and loss of life and limbs, also dam
age suits, the outgrowth of these
things, have decreased to a mini
mum through the good work done
by the committees forming the bu-
reau.

of the roads claim department, each
division will have it's committee
which will be composed of a yard
master, conductor, a brakeman
a switchman, an engineer, and a
fireman.
The plan to be followed by the
road wal be similar to that in use
for the past two years on the North

made the claim that accidents to
employees aud property loss have
been decreased one-half since the

manager of the Chicago, Milwaukee
and st. Paul railway, was read be.
fore the council this morning in re-
gard to the switching by that rail
road across Main street. Mr.. Bush

GEORGE A. OLNEY IS
 STRONG. MAN.
(Bisbee Review) ,


 While there will be disappointment among those democrats in Cochise county who endorsed Senator Roberts for Chairman of the democratic state committee, those who have known Hon. George A. Olney and his stead- principles and the democratic party and who know of his sterling worth as a citizen will not for a moment doubt that man in every way worthy and capable has been placed at the head of the party organization and one self to the work of cementing every element of strength in the party in a compact and effective force.
 MT. O1ney has for twenty-five years been at the very head of the democrat ic organization in Graham county where democratic majorities have been as regular as recurring elections Every democrat in the state can fol low this leader with assurance that he will countenance no attempt to con-
 
 will insist that the voice of all have equal chance in the party government.
 Now that the party organization has been completed we shall expect to see vigorous campaign waged in the state during the next thirty days, with all the old boys invited into the field of battle, including Senator Ash urst, Congressman Hayden, George Purdy Bullard, Hon. Reese M. Ling, Hon. Lamar Cobb, Hon. John R. Hampton, Hon. w. T. Webb, P. C. Little, George A. Neale, Gilmore, Murray and others in this county and if sweeping victory does not come in November we shall be very much disappointed.
