BOOSTERS VISIT
PRINCETON FAIR
GOOD CROWD OF LIVE WIRE MOS
cow BUSINESS MEN LEFT THIS
MORNING.
MOt0red to POtlatch, PaIOuse and
Princeton and Advertised the COM
ing Latah County Fair.

The opening of the Princeton street
fair today was attended by big party
OF Moscow business men who left here
this morning in autos for a triangular
tour including visits to Palouse, Pince-
ton and Potlatch. More men were on
hand for the trip this morning than
could be provided with room in the
cars but it was good representative
party who finally got together for the
visit.
The party included several members
of the city oand with their instruments,
a photographer and newspaper man
or two. A good supply Of advertising
literature for the coming county fair
was taken along for distribution at
the various stopping places and con-
siderable time was to be spent at
Princeton witnessing the opening OF
the street fair. 1t was hoped that all
of the exhibits displayed there could
be collected for the county fair to be
held here the latter part of this month.
A good display from the Potlat h
section is assured and but little boost
ing will be necessary there to insure
a good attendance from that town.
The Potlatch public schools are plan
ming an elaborate exhibit and it is
thought that the farming sections in
that vicinity will also be well repre-
sented.

Son of Poor Farmer.

William Jay Gaynor, jurist and poll

was born as the son of a poor farmer
near Whitestown, N. Y, in 1851. He
received his early education at the
public schools of Whitestown and
later at the Whitestowp seminary and
in Boston and was originally destined
to enter the priesthood of the Roman
Catholic church. AS boy young
Gaynor was ambitious and made every
effort to acquire a good education.
In his young manhood Mr.. Gaynor
taught school in Boston, and after
wards studied law in Utica, N. Y, re-
moving to Brooklyn in 1873 to continue
his studies. Meanwhile he made a
scant living by working for newspa-
pers. He was admitted to the bar in
1875, and went to live in Flatbush, then
a separate community in the control
of corrupt politicians. Straightway
Gaynor began to study his surround
ings and developed his fighting quail
ties as a reformer He found that
Flatbush had forty saloons, but only
one liquor license. He obtained eyi
dence against the saloons, had their
proprietors arrested and compelled
them to take out licenses. Then he
called the better element together and |
a reform ticket was nominated at the
next election.
