turned down the suggested compro- o.
mise Of 40 cents offered by Aid. KEEL n

high and barred common folks ,w
from the use of the taxi. nj
In answer to the repeated claims
that a 80 cent fare would put many ait
taxi companies out of business, Ferry
replied that a 80 cent fare is now in va
operation IN New YORK and the taxi sy
men are thriving under it. ri
"a 80 cent rate will bring the taxis 7tT
TO the point where everyone can use sn
them ana end the restriction which II

There are several reasons why this
years fair at Fa!rmont should be larg'
er than all previous years, chief OF
which is the fine racing program and
the interest in the exhibits.
Tie prizes given for stock Ct all

desired effect. Most every visitor 10
the Fair has wanted to look over the
exhibits, and since the awards have
been made and the winners named the
interest becomes greater. Prize win
