FIGHT TO KEEP STATE FAIR
Efforts by Other Cities to Secure
Big Attraction Arouses Mil
waukee to Action.


Milwaukee. - MilWaukeeans will
not sit idly by with their hands fold
ed while representatives of other
cities are laboring with the legisla-
tors at Madison for the purpose Of
having the state fair removed from
Milwaukee. The people of this city
regard the fair as a fixed institution
for Milwaukee by reason of the Large,
amount of money invested in equip
ment and intend making hard fight
on any proposition to remove the fair
to any other city. Active work to-
this end has been begun by the leg
fslative committee of the Merchants
and Manufacturers association. The
contention will be made that no oth-
er city in the state can offer the
transportation and hotel facilities
that Milwaukee affords and emphasis
will be laid on the assertion that
patronage by the citizens OF Mil
waukee has saved the fair from a
deficit upon several occasions. Osh-
kosh and Wausau are the cities most
active in endeavoring to acquire the
state fair.
