THE THIRD ANNUAL FAIR

The announcement which appear ed in the Daly Alaskan of Wednes- day of the holding of the third an uual Horticultural and Agricultural fair on the 18th of September, was received with pleasurable anucipa- tion not only by the people of Skag- way but by many others who live within a reasonable distance of here and will be enabled to take ad- vantage Of the cheap excursion rates that are being offered to visit the city for Q few days rest and recreation with the added iU- centiYa Of being able during their brieF sojouru to sec the magnifl- cent display Of garden and farm products, the marketing of which in the Northern towns as well as In the city of Seattle IS commencing to make the Skagway valley famous.
 In order to make the fair a sue cess this year it is necessary for every one who is interested in 1t to come forward and render every assistance in their power to those having the matter in hand. The time is now short, only about two weeks remaining before it is ad- verHsed to take place, and there Is much to be done and many details to work out In the meantime.
 While the past season has been cold and exceedingly rainy it is thought that there will be no diff culty in getting up display that will compare fa7Orably with those of the two previous years which were pronounced by all who had the pleasure of viewing them as being causes for self-congratula- tiouf by the people of Skagway at the diversity of the resources that are being gradually developed in this valley.
