and its management but also at Iron
River in particular The knocker
starts his wonderful contribution by
asking space TO raise my voice IN
protest against this libel on the fair
name of our county, for IL there is one
knocker more than another upon the
agricultural development OF the county
il is the so-callled Iron County Fair.
If the truth was known 1t is prob
able that his so-called booster for the
county fair never raised his hand or
voice in the interest OF the county fair
lit has been characteristic of great
many people on the east side of the
county TO do every thing in their power
TO make the fair failure IL possible
That the fair mas been success on
other occasions has been through no
assistance that they have given TO
make il what it should be-
The writer says II went to the
fair this year more TO compare il with
last years exhibition than because |
expected to get any benefit out OF it "
Now. just think OF man, attempting
TO be critic. making fool statement
like the above. There wasn't a man
connected with the fair that thought
for a moment that the fair would com
pare in any respect with last year ex
hibitiou. 1t couldn't, no matter how
many race tracks IL had. The season
was against anything of the kind. and
any one but an east side ignoramus
knew IL
The writer clearly shows that he Is
against the west side of the county in
anything ii may attempt to do. He
not only knocks the county fair but he
goes ont of his way to take whack at
the Fourth Of July celebration held
here, clearly showing that he couldn't
appreciate good fair if he saw one,
unless it had a lot Of old spawned
horses on the race track.
The writer clearly shows his true
animus in the following II was a.
unused by conversation between Iron
River men which overheard at the
Boyington in the evening. One Of
them said i wish that Crystal Falls
would take hold OF this fair and show
these fellows over here how to run
thinRs. We'd nave fair.

River has the fair and Crystal Falls
hash I, hence the knock. Sure il would
be success if Crystal Falls only had
it, bnt who would pay the freight!
Not Crystal Falls by any means--it is
not built that way. The county at
large would pay for il good and plenty
Last year when the fair should have
been given at least So. 600 by the county
board IL was let off with a measley
$500. Does anyone suppose for a min
ute that IL the fair had been located at
Crystal Falls that ii would have been
given $500 lemon2 Not on your tin
type. 1t would have been given the
full 81. 600 and probably more
The society has grounds and build
ings that are credit TO any fair and
1t should not have been treated as mig
gardly as il was by the county board
last year The management of the
society has 20 60 according to lis
means. 1t is not run as an adjunct Ia
any one and no one knows it any better
than the knocker on the east side Of
the county.

poNoHUE IN NEW HANDS

Mining men have been much inter
ested in learning that the Donohue and
McGoyern properties have been taken
over by the Wickwire Mining Go.
These properties are geographically
described as follows The Donohue-
northwest Of the northwest; the south.
west of the northwest and the north
west OF the southwest Of section
%. The MoGovern-the east half OF
tue northeast of section 20. For some
time past they have been the center of
good deal of attention. The drilling
operations were inaugurated by the
Niagara Mining Co., concern in
which several local men were interest
ed.
The present deal has been hanging
fire for some time The announcement
rs made that the work will be operated
under the name of the Buffalo Iron
Mining Co, subsidiary to the Wick
wiro Co. Incorporation is now under
process and the work OF shaft sinking
has been begun. A matter OF a year
ago the findings on the Donohue.
McGovern properties were much dis
cussed. Our readers may remember,
in this connection, long article in the
Reporter by Professor Finlay dealing
with Iron County and it's mineral pos
sibilities. Some weeks later there was
published the valuation of the tax com
mission, with expert Finlay's report as
basis. In this a valuation was placed
of $97. 800 each on these properties
Inasmuch as the estimate was based
upon probable resource IL il obvious
that this new work gives promise Of
an encouraging development.
