n recently acquired fair ground with
(rmanent fair buildings will be voted
ion. It can be depended uKn iliut
bse who are opimsed to limiting this
yestment will be on hand to vote
jtinst It, so that if the measure is
pealed It will be bpcau.se those in
fnpathy with this progressive niove
tnt dhl not take the time to vote,
erefore, every citizen is urged to so
?the polls, which will be open from
jn the mornins until S In the even
Jackson county and the city of Med-j-d
have made an investment of
.000 in fair grounds and unless
i'se grounds are improved they will
jcessarily remain idle and no fair
Jl be held.
f'ho agricultural industry in Jackson
inty is 111 its infancy and although
Ire always will be a natural increase
Its iniwirtance, a kooiI fair will do
re to stimulate a quick growth,
rlculture and its aUied branches,
h as dalryiiiK and stock raising will
(ike rapid strides when the oppor
uily is Riven to show what others
k doing and a good county fair fur
tdies same.
Jrhero will be but one measure on
e ballot. Should the same be do
died, it will be again necessary to
euro the . signatures of some 2000
frlstered voters to. placet the question j
. improving the lair grounds on the
Jlot as the law specifically specifies
pt this is the only means whereby
Oney can be secured to make such
.expenditure. The law also requires
Bt the voting on this question must
. done at a special election.
)n order to avoid the expense of an
ection at any future date to vote on
4n question, the citizens of the coun
are urged to go lo the polls and vote
r this measure at this time.
