Under the circumstances the late Umatilla-Morrow fair was phenome nally successful. There were some It, but by good management and local loyalty born of pride, they were over come, and it proved to be the best ex- hibltlon yet had. But at this ttme there is some dis cussion of the advisability of looking for another location for it by next year, in order that more room may be had. It Is suggested that a pavilion should be erected out in East Pendle ton, where a larger space may be ob tained for the stock exhibit and, may be, a race track provided, ete Against this The Tribune 'at this time raises its voice In protest. It does so In obedience to the motto, "Let well enough alone," which admit tedly at times Is not a good one to fol low, but is, nevertheless, fraught gen erally with a lot of old-fashioned common sense. There never was a successful fair without a large attendance. Gate money is what counts. It Is what marks, the ,Jlne between success and failure at any and every state or coun ty fair. The best exhibit it Is possi ble to secure would not guarantee a successful fair Is nobody went to see It. .,. . This being admitted, it must be plain that the more convenient the pa vilion to the general public the greater number of people' will attend. Mr. Cohen wouldn't move his department tore out on West Webb street If a good building were provided him rent free. And yet he would offer the pub lic the same bargains that he does at hi place of business on Main street. The Umatilla-Morrow" fair is a great success for the one reason that Its pa vilion is on Main street, where every body can attend without trouble. It Is convenient If the pavilion were moved even four blocks from Main street It would no ticeably diminish the attendance. If It were moved out of town it would result in killing the fair. For years Union county has been en dcavorlng to have a fair on the ground two miles from La Grande, and It has each time been a lamentable failure. The attendance was so small this year that the gates were thrown wide open and no charges made. It was being held at the same time as ours, and on Fiturdny a prominent clilicn of La Grande.rame to Pendleton to see "how we do it," as he remarked to the Tribune. His opinion Is that next year the directors will follow Pendle ton's example and move the fair Into La Grande where the people are. The district fair has been made a street success la Pendleton, and the Tribune respectfully advises that It be retained at Its present location.
