THE FAIR.
The Monroe City Fair Opened Tues
day Big Attractions--Good
Show Rings s-Floral
Hall Beautiful.

On account of the weather not
being fair Tuesday the attendance
at the Monroe City Fair was not so
large as it would have been with
better weather conditions. There
are many fine horses, cattle, sheep,
hogs and poultry on exhibition
There will be a few races and the
floral hall is the place to see the
beautiful handiwork of the ladies.
Many say that this department is
better this year than it has ever
been. Then, there is one great at
traction - one which people have
crossed continents to see - the Bird
Man. Those who have attended
are pleased with the exhibits.
Come in and see what your neigh
ber is doing. A better place to
meet your friends could not be
found. Phone them that the you
are going and ask them to meet
you. You will be we'll paid.

been on exhibition here for several
days and all who see them are de-
lighted. The cost is small and
among the other advantages are no
coal to carry in, no ashes to carry
out, no dust, no smell, the heat
right where you want it as it can
be changed, quick hot fire. plenty

ton. cheap fuel. If interested see

THE BIRD MAN.
One of the Most Noted Aviators
Making Flights In Monroe City
A Grand Sight.

Yes, Samuel, the Bird man, is
here making flights at the Monroe
City Fair as advertised. And we
have with us one of the noted avia-
tors of the world. r. Pease is the
manager and Andrew Houpert is
the aviator. Both are very pleas
ant gentleman and have made
friends of all who have had the
pleasure of meeting them. They
came direct from New York City
here and have splendid new ma
chine, a Schmitt Military Mono
plane. 1t is equipped with a 70
horse power Gnome engine and as
an evidence that it is machine of
the latest and best type will say
that it is the same type of machine
used by the United States govern
ment. 1t can easily travel go miles
an hour in the air. The Fair peo-
pie are much pleased with the gen.
tlemen sent here and also with
the machine and they have good
reason TO be as it would be hard to
improve. Mr.. Pease has been man.
aging Flyers for many years and
has always done so successfully.
He thoroughly understands the bus
inesS and is pleasant and agreeable,
willing to do all in his power to
please and he succeeds in so doing.
Mr.. Houpert is a noted ayiator,
having been flying for many years
in this country and in France and
has made as many as $500 flights.
He has been an aviator teacher and
knows all about flying machines.
At Dallas, Texas, he was up $500
feet. His flight Tuesday was about
1000 feet high, caused all to gaze
skyward and from reports he pass
ed over every house from a mile
north to a mile south of Monroe
He rose within 400 feet from where
he started, went west then came
back and circled over the city, then
gradually came to the ground with
in a few feet of the starting point.
Many are taking advantage of the
opportunity to see an aircraft at
close range and have it explained.
Admittance to the tent can be had
for 10 cents and there will be told
about all parts of the machine. 1t
will be worth your while to come
TO the fair to see the flights of Mr..
Houpert and his flying machine. He
is to make four flights here. The
Tuesday flight was great, we 60 to
press before he goes up Wednesday.
Then Thursday and Friday this at
traction will be here. Come in and
see something you perhaps never
saw before and something which if
anyone had suggested a few years
ago would have given them home
in a padded cell. Flying machines
are here to stay. If you have new
er seen one this is your great op-
portunity. If you have never seen
one you will want to see this.
Come and bring the children. 1t
will be valuable to all to see such
flights as Mr.. Houpert is giving.

GOOD ROADS.
ALI Recognize that We Should Have
Them-Bad Roads Are Expen-
sive.

For years we have had in this
country in the spring long strips of
mud which by courtesy we have
called roads. During each of these
years they have cost the people
millions of dollars and no one re-
ceived any benefit. This is an age
when we see more clearly the need
of good roads. 1t is now simply a
question of how to get them and
the cost of them be assessed equit-
ably on all the people. The method
of letting the farmers along the
roads and the small towns, by pay
ing taxes and then in addition ex-
pending large sums by donation of
cash or work, has been tried and
has proven to be the wrong princi-
pie, as in this way the burden of
cost is not equitably divided.
AS the whole people receive the
benefits the whole people should
bear the cost. This can be accom-
pliShed by the cost being paid by
Nation, State, County and District.
History proves that no country has
ever had good roads without Ma
tional aid. Then why delay longer.
Each year of delay costs millions of
dollars. Good roads are economi-
cal, but it is useless to discuss this
part of the question. The only part
worthy of discussion is how to dis
tribute the cost, This is only one
of series of articles. If you have
a better plan let US have it.
Perhaps you may say: How are
you going to get National and State
Aid? That is easy since we now
elect all members of Congress and
the State Legislatures by popular
vote. Sound the candidates on this
question and if he does not give out
the right sound you can easily find
good men who are in favor of the
cost being paid by Nation, State,
County and District.
Politicians who have had their
ears to the ground are hearing the
noise which is being given out to
build roads in this way. OF course
we cannot get a perfect law at first
but let US make the start. Even
now Congress is considering such a
law and some Congressman feel
that at the next regular session
such law will be passed. 1t is up
to the people to ask for the passage
of such a law and it will be sure to
pass, Read an article elsewhere in
this paper from the Richmond Mis-
sOurian
If you have a better plan which
will in any way hasten the day of
Good Roads let US have it.

OLD MEN FOR COUNSEL:
YOUNG MEN FOR ACTION

The above is the proverb by
which the ancients, who were always
conservatives, and generally reac-
tionaries, sought to discourage the
young men of their day from taking
part in public councils. To the
prevalence of such sentiment is due
the fact that the nations of old did
not progress as far in a thousand
years as the United States does in
ten.
The meeting of the Young Men s
Democratic Club at the courthouse
Wednesday night was attended by
at least hundred voters, nearly all
Of less than thirty years and few Of
over forty. All were interested and
enthusiastic over the object of the
gathering and readily pledged them
selves to help carry out the aims of
the organization.
The following officers were elect
ed:
President-Chas w Hunter
NICC L cSIuSHl lOI TIC L IL w al u
John F. Thompson.
Vice President Second Ward-H.
w. Tucker
Vice President Third Ward. C.
Smith
Vice President Fourth Ward-C.
F. Flippen.
Secretary-M. L. Reynolds
A constitution and bylaws was
adopted.
Contrary to the accepted opinion
the club didn't put up a ticket OF
endorse candidates. The organiza-
ton, in fact, intends to work for the
improvements of public affairs. Its
a democratic club, pure and simple
and if it throws it's weight to any
will be entirely on the question OF
merit or demerit
Among those present were a num-
Der of our foremost young men, and
if they stick together and keep their
work up, they will have great weight
| in future elections.
| The Star is glad to see the youns
men of the city taking such lively
interest in public affairs. 1t is theil
right and their duty, and they car
do more than any other element il
| the cause of progress.
The club will hold it's next meet
ing tomorrow night
