 Commissioner Wood said, "The senti- ment supposed to come from Yavapai county against the State Fair is an in spired sentiment worked up by one or two jealous people who are quite well aware that everyone knows for whom they are working. It does not represent the general sentiment of YaVapai cOun- ty by any means, only a small part of it."
 Commissioner Layton said, 'sWe have had a good year over in Graham county and We want to show the folks e the state Just how fine a showing we can make at the fair. Graham county is enthusiastic for the Fair. We recog- nize II is q good thing for the state"

THE EXPRESS TAxES-Owing to some jumbling of the type and figures. The Republican yesterday morning made slight error in nam ing the amounts which are to be paid to the state from the express com ipanies for taxes. What should have been printed was that the United Verde & Pacific Express company will pay the state the sum of S162.75, that sum representing six per cent of the gross receipts of the company for the past twelve months. And the Wells Fargo company will "kinck in" to the tune of s5O99.s2, their gross business for the year having been SS4,996.94. The total gross business of the two companies amounted to $S7,726.14.
