Woman S Department.

In commenting upon the fair last
week we thought to refer to the Woman s
Building, but deferred it purposely on
account of the crowded condition of the
paper. In striking contrast to every
other department of the fair, the Wo-
mans Building at the Union City fair
has been a continuous success from
wear to year ever since the fair was or,
ganized. nine years ago. This year the
culinary department was cut short, but
not for any reason of neglect on the part
Of the ladies. The fruit and vegetable
crop is short, and therefore the exhibit
reflected the conditions existing. But
the greatest success of the fair, by far
the best ever seen here, was the Do
mestic Arts Department, under the inn
mediate supervision of Miss Martha
Wade and Mrs. w. G. Farris, assisted
bv Mrs. J. C. McRee. The needlework
was indeed the finest ever shown at a
county fair in Union City and the display
the most attractive. The Fine Arts De-
nartment was also a complete success.
The ladies of these departments, Miss
Ella Whipple, Mrs. Geo. Dahnke, Mrs.
Pink Marshall, Miss Addie Palmer,
Mrs. John Caldwell, all are due the
highest praise for the work they have
Done at the fair. The races may fail.

Holding His Own.

This issue begins the third year of
life for the Troy Press. We started the
Press on a cash capital of Is cents. We
haven't gotten rich, but, thank the
Lord, we are holding our own; we still

The editor of the Troy Press is Davy
Crockett, a blood relative of the hero of
the Alamo, and born in the same county
in Tennessee as was the latter. When
he takes into consideration the fact that
Frank A. Munsey started in the maya
zine business with a cash capital of $40
and has made millions, he should not
feel discouraged with his fifteen cents,

thirty. New Canaan Comm Mes

The State Committee declined by a
majority of one to recall the Senatorial
primary, and the battle will go bravely
on. Probably this is best for all par
ties. The thing to do, if you have a
choice, is to enter the primary. There
is nothing to compromise. Any DEM
ocrat can vote in the primary, and he
is neglecting his interests if he does not
vote, makes no difference whether he
is an independent or regular, Your
vote is the only thing that does count
in this fight, and so if you have any
desire at all to have voice in the race
the primary is the only place in which
you can express that choice. There are
no qualifications and no nominee to
support in general election, excepting
the simple fact that you have been
Democrat. The primary is to be held
in November, at the same time the reg
ular fall election for President is held,
and every Democratic voter who fails
to cast his ballot simply acknowledges
that he doesn't care who is to be the
next United States Senator. There is
a sentiment in the State to defeat Elk
Governor Patterson, and the only way
it can be done is to vote against him.
If he gets a plurality of the votes in
the primary the Legislature will surely
elect him. 1t is simply up to the voter.

ture and mechanics may be failure.
All these things may suffer from lack
of interest and the proper management,
but the Woman's Building never fails,
and but for the women who have from
year to year worked with a determine
ton and will to make a success OF the
fair, there would not, in all probability,
now be any fair at all. They have at
tracted the feminine population from
many places to these exhibits, and the at
tendance mas thus been increased and the
fair kept live institution by their eff
forts. Much more than some OF us may
imagine the fair owes its success to the
Woman's Department. If the superln-
tendents, the men who have charge OF
the other departments, had the same
enthusiasm, snap and energy that the
women have the fair would be what no
county fair in knowledge ever has been,
the most glorious of all achievements
in the work of assembling and conduct
ing the exhibits of county fair. The
superintendents of the Woman's Build
ing do not wait until the fair to go to
work. They begin before. They work
until they get number of attractive
premiums. The men do not. They go
out and solicit articles and specimens
for exhibit. The men do not. They
keep in touch with the work. The men
have not done so, and when the fair is
on they have the only real genuine, ar
tistic and attractive display at the fair
grounds. They have the only really
interesting department of the fair, ex-
cept of course the speed ring events, and
sometimes better than that department.
The Woman's Building has been the
feature of our fair, and it has been so
because of the efforts used by the ladies
to make it so.
Would to goodness that an interest of
the same kind could be stirred up in
the other departments. In the first
place we need more room. We need a
machinery hall and department for
exhibits. A building COM
bined could be erected on the fair
grounds at no great cost, and, the fair
being in debt, it should be built by sub
scription and an extension of stock to
cover the outlay. This would bring the
into active cooperation with
the fair and increase its usefulness.
One thing necessary to the comfort
of the visitors should be done, and that
is the extension of the awning on the
grandstand to the fence. This could be
made of canvas. A small extension
was made, but this was altogether in
sufficient. People positively will not sit
or stand all day in the hot broiling sun
even to see a good race. They will not
stay in the sun and wait for good race.
We talked of this matter before. A
small extension was made, but it is alto
gether too small. The sun must be
kept away from the grandstand, and
the whole space in front to the fence
should be sheltered from both the sun
and the rain. This ought to be done
by all means for the comfort of the
to the fair. What is the fair
worth to anybody if compelled to swell
ter in the sun to see it.
