The District Fair
We give below in pert what the
Bay Times of the 17th had to
sav concerning our coining fair:
The soliciting committee for the
'■'icond Southern Oregon District
Fair is in the field today, securing
subscriptions toward holding the
fair in Marshfield August 2G to Au
gust 29 inclusive.
It is necessary to remodel and en
large the pavillion, to prepare pens
anil stalls for stock; poultry build
ing rebuild a grand stand for the
seating of the public, etc. The
grounds will also be enlarged and
left in suitable condition to be used
as a park or picnic grounds in the
future. While no permanent lease
can be secured from the railroad
company, assurance is given that it
will be open for the public for an
indefinite time yet.
The board expects to hire a band
for the entire four days, and it is
the purpose to offer at least GO p c
more in purses than was given at
lloseburg last year. The purpose
in giving larger purses is to bring in
all the best horses within range of
the Coos county circuit.
The board is anxious to get the
subscription list closed as soon as
possible, for there is already wide
spread interest in the proposed fair,
and it requires time and expenses
to get together the exhibits. While
a fair of the magnitude planned
will cost something on the start, it
means the greatest fair ever held
west of the coast range mountains,
and made a success this year it will
be made a permanent thing.
The preamble of the subscription
list, and subscribers up to the time
of going to press follows:
We the undersigned, hereby
pledge the amount hereunto sub
scribed and placed opposite our re
spective names for the creation of a
fair fund to be used to defray the
necessary expenses in connection
with the Second Southern District
Fair to be held at Marshfield, Ore.,
for the year 1908, payments to bo
made, one half by May 1, and the
remainder by July 1, 1908.

T o Our S u b scrib ers
Owing to a late ruling of the U.
S. Postal Department which goes
into effect the first of next month,
it will be necessary for us to drop
from our subscripaion list the names
of all subscribers who are more
than one year in nrrears for the
H erald .
It seems at first a little strange
for the government to take this
position, a s it would appear that it
is a simple case of interfearing with
our private business, but when we
study into the matter, the object is
plainly to bo understood. The in
tention of the government is to give
the publisher of overy bony fide
newspaper every
advantage of
cheap rates possible, and in doing
so the publishers of advertising
schemes have learned to take ad.
vantage of these rates, and the idea
of the department is to cut them
out, and only allow genuine news
papers with paid-up subscription
lists to have access to what is known
as the second-class mailing rate.
Therefore, under the circumstan
ces, we are sending out statements to
all who are more than a year in ar
rears, and in rase we receive no re
mittance by April 1st, we will be ob
liged to drop such names from our
mailing list.
We have been sending the H zrald
to a great many for a number of

Another of Coos county’s sturdy
pioneers has passed over to the
great beyond. This time it is Hi
ram Bettys who answers the call.
On Wednesday, March 18, 1908,
after a brief illness of lagrippe or
something of that order, Mr. Bettys
passed away. The deceased was
born in Rochester, New York, Sept
ember 13, 1834, and was therefore
72 years, 7 months and 5 days of
age at the time of bis death. His
first move was to Canada, where he
spent several years, and in 1866
moved to Kansas where he resided
till in 1874, be with his family loca
ted on the old homestead near Fair-
view, where he remained till his
death. Mr. Bettys is survived by a
wife, two sons, Albert and William,
of Fairview, and Mrs- R. J. Coke
and Mrs. J. H. Clinkenbeard, of
North Bend. Being a highly re
spected citizen, and obliging neigh
bor he is mourned by a targe circle
of friends beside the members of
his fumily. ¡On Thursday he was
laid to rest in the Fairview cemetery,
