Attorney Geo. T. Cochran 6poke on
"Fair Exhibits," and suggested that
one sure way of making a success was
by sending a committee out and talk
ing it up with the producers.
T. A. Rlnehart was given the sub
ject: "The Old and the Modern Fair".
Any one who has ever attended one of
our fairs that we held several years
ago would not question but what Mr.
Rlnehart had been there also. The
way that he pictured the gambling
games, the bar room carousals and
flocks of tin horn gamblers that al
ways followed the races as the chief
attraction offered, in contrast with
what the people of this age expected,
was simply in line with our moral pro-
pathy with the present fair move
ment and was certain that we would
meet with hearty support from all
sections of the country.
Thomas McConnell who for over
half a century has been no small fac
tor in the upbuilding of the west, re
sponded to the invitation and dwelt
upon the necessity of the transporta
tion problem. 11i$ personal observa
tions as related were interesting and
received marked attention.
Mr. Gaines of Pendleton also spoke
on the transportation question. He
has given this subject years of in
vestigation and understands the rights
of both the common carrier and the
public.
Attorney W. B. Sargent closed the
program with an explanation of what
the executive committee estimated
would be required to successfully
launch the fair and at the expiration
of his remarks the subscription pa
per for stock was liberally signed and
the greater portion of the $5,000 stock
was taken. The finance committee will
follow this up and close the financial
part of the undertaking during the
next few days.
All that is necessary In the future
is to announce that a banquet i3 com
ing and the guests will be there.

man named Brown as a timber and
stone claim, was occupied previously
by a squatter named J. J. Hamblin. A
