STOCKHOLDERS MEET.
Change of Management of the
Union City Fair.

The stockholders OF the West Tennes
see Fair Association met at the Mayor
office on Washington street last Monda,
afternoon, the 18th inst Mr.. Woosley
read report OF the last fair, including
an itemized statement Of its finances
The expenditures were about three hun,
dred dollars more than the receipts, al
told, and the meeting, the best OF all
the fairs in the county, showed loss
OF that amount.
This, added to the years interest on
the fair debt, made the years deficit
about six hundred dollars.
The matter was taken up and dis
cussed by the stockholders, some Offer
ing one thing and some another as the
cause OF the loss. The principal cause,
however, was lack OF the proper atten-
ton to details and the expenditure OF
several hundred dollars for improve
ments that we're not altogether neces-
sary.
The discussion resulted in change
Of the management, authorizing the
election of finance committee Of three
and giving them, with the President as
an ex-ofFicio member, practically SUI
preme control OF the fair
The officers were then elected as fol-
lows President, w. C.s Farris; Secre-
tary, J. w. Woosley; Treasurer, III.
Dietzel, ST.; First Vice President, Dr..
w. M. Turner; Second Vice President,
S. B. Bratton; Third Vice President, J.
G. Isbell. Directors: S. I. Wade, Pink
Marshall, B. j. Wade, I. R. Reynolds,
Geo. Dahnke, E. HI. Marshall H. p.
Moss, ]. P. Verhine, J. d. Killion, J.
A. CobIe, o. FL. Clemmons, J. G. Bur-
dick.
A motion was then adopted to amend
the bylaws to provide for the election
Of Finance Committee Of three by the
Board Of Directors and to define the
powers of this committee. The amend
ment drafted by Seid Waddell is as
follows:
That the Board of Directors is author
lied to select three of the members Of
the board as Finance Committee, and
this committee, subject to the super
vision and ratification Of the board,
shall have charge OF the financial man
agement and expenditures OF the assoc
citation, and that no claim or charge
against the association for expenditures
OF money shall be paid without the orr
der OF majority Of said committee.
Said committee shall have charge Of the
and fixing Of the premium
lists and making rules for the operation
OF the fair meetings, such rules, etc, to
be ratified by the board and do all and
singular through its judgment such
things as may be deemed best for the
interest Of this association. The Presi-
dent shall be ex-officio member and
preside al meetings, and the secretary
shall keep an accurate record OF all the
and orders by the said COM
mittee and file same with the board.
Said committee shall meet as often as
the business OF the association demands.
The meeting was then adjourned and
the directors Immediately convened and
in pursuance OF the amendment elected
the Finance Committee as follows: J. A.
Coble, Geo. Dahnke, J. 2. Verhine.

Why SalVeS Can't Cure EczeIila

Since the old-fashioned theory or cur

given up by scientists. many different
salves have been tried for skin diseasee
But it has been found that these salves
only clog the pores ara cannot penetrat

The Fair.

At the meeting OF the stockholders
OF the fair association Monday there
were numbers OF suggestions offered ia
remedy the losses sustained at the fair
held this year, and it looked like every
one Of them went very wide OF the
mark. One man said cut the expenses
half in two, but he didn't tell us how
he expected to make the receipts twice
as much as the expenses. Allow for
unnecessary expenditures and cut the
fair half in twoiand how does he expect
the same attendance or gate receipts.
A big show always attracts more peo-
pie than little one. So his philosophy
was full of punctures. Another man
said let every stockholder constitute
himself policeman. Suppose they
did how much money would it save.
Another man said let Che association
assess itself enough TO pay off the debt,
but that could not be done legally. The
stock is non assessable. SO a number
Of them kept on shooting at the stars.
They couldn't find target nearer home.
The fact is that the directors got little
careless this year and allowed too many
orders to be given and Improvements
made that were not altogether neces-
sary. But for this there would have
been enough to cover everything and
pay the interest on the note, Any other
set OF directors, after buffeting against
the i'll winds for several years, might
have done the same thing. Then too
much license was given to exhibitors.
"A number OF animals were entered in
too many rings. The same animal
should not be allowed to take the bulk
OF the premiums This could be pre-
vented. But to cut the fair would be to
kill it. A county fair without horse
show, d trotting and pacing meet, a wo-
mans and an agricultural department
would be poor makeshift indeed. AS
we'll 20 out Of business entirely. Ofcourse
this should be lesson to the directors
to tighten up the reins. They should
start with the fair earlier every year
and give themselves time to look after
every detail. See that all the corners
are properly attended to, that no super
fIuous orders are issued, and by that
means keep track Of everything.
But with all this no fair can provide
against the rains, and there was a rain
on Friday Of fair week this year, cut
ting it probably about seven Or eight
hundred dollars. But there is another
thing more important than all these
operating against the fair and has been
ever since the present organization start
ed and that is the people within the cor
porate limits 81 Union City do not at
tend the fair, and why2 The outside
attendance has been all that the most
sanguine could expect To US i has
not been i surprise but matter Of con-
graduation. People from all parts Of

Two years ago the Senate was deadlocked, and DO Pres ident of the body was chosen. Then Vice President Sherman was on hand, and there really was no urgency over the mat ter. But with the death of the Vice President someone must act in order that measures may de signed, etc. Senator Gal finger was chosen by the eau GUS two years ago, but the Progressives have succeeded in preventing his election. IL is agreed that Mir. Gallinger may fill the place one-half the time, and Senator Bacon the other half. The two men have shiny bald heads, and look very much alike, and one has 10 look twice to discover which is which in the chair. The Democrats will settle the question after March 4.
