SALOON MEN ARE
 FOR STATE FAIR.
SUBSCRIBED $1,275 YESTERDAY AND NOT ONE REFUSED TO
 HELP IN ThE WORK.
Neither Did a Single Saloon Man Give Less than $25 to Help the
 Next Annual State Falr.

When Mayor Waters, R. L. Will Hams and Walter Little. one of the Arkansas State Fair subscription committees, made it's report at state fair headquarters last night at 6 o'clock they were awarded the hon. ors for the best report, that has ever been submitted in single day.
 They had been designated to call on the saloon men of the city, and they reported $1,275 in subscriptions, with not a single turn down" and not saloon man subscribed less than $25 to the cause,
 The honor and distinction of the committee, however, was lost when the committee began to enthuse over the manner in which the saloon men of the city had stood behind this enterprise, for certainly no better re- port could be made from the ranks of any other line of business, and IS much more than was expected from the saloon men. even though they always give generously to in- stitutions for the benefit of the city.
 The committee started out yester- day mroning, and at o'clock last night made the report at headquar- ters. Some of the other committees reported, but none had such glow ing report as this one There is encouragement being given generally, however, to the work, and there is every assurance that the sum will be raised necessary to promote the state fair on the large and liberal lines anticipated.
