carried away the buildings with The ex-

1t was decided at the business mems
meeting, held at the Normal Dining
room on Tuesday evening the 18th, TO
organize fair association at Hays,
Kansas, and the name decided on by
the committee is to be the Golden Belt
Fair Association, Hays, Kansas.
The necessary preliminaries are being
worked out at the present time, pre-
paratory to completing this organiza-
ton which will be done the first part of
next week. The Association will be
incorporated and the shares will be SO

Owing to the lateness of the season,
it will possibly be out of the question
to prepare race track for this season
The Fair viii be held sometime in Octo-
Der. We would ask everyone that is
interested in making displays of any
kind to kindly furnish list of same at as
early date as possible. Suitable pre-
miums viii be given and there will be
ample facilities for handling displays

1t is recognized by all economists
that labor should receive more than
twenty-five per cent of the wealth it
produces. One of the near big prob
lens of the future is to correct this
wrong. Laws for better wealth dis

continue to witness strikes, lock-outs,
boycottings and the calling out of the
MALTA to put down local riots. These
