PEOPLE OWN THE FAIR
G. F. MEYERS.
Hoosler Exposition Has BooMe ' Tie to the Public of Irtlana. ' The State Fair is to be held at Injdianapolis the week of Sept 12, and (people from Hoosler town and city will turn It to account as a playground, while from the Hoosler farms men and women by tens of thousands will turn to it as a source of education and Inspiration, while they also will extract from it as much pleasure as does the | urban element. Nothing in Indiana lyear after year brings together so :many thousand people as does the fair, and they assemble there in the spirit* that the exposition belongs to them, as It really does, under the state law which created the fair In 1851 and which from that year to this has guided Its destiny. To have a fair, it must have a directing force, and the state provided it by creating the State Board of Agriculture. To make the fair In truth representative of Indiana people “and Interests, the legislature has always held general control of it, the I Board of Agriculture being the medium for assembling the exhibits and conducting the fair. To give the fair a double tie to the people, the membership Is made up of representatives of count-' fairs and agricultural societies, and their membership is made up of people from the farms. In the organizations behind It and In the knowledge and enjoyment It gives them, the State Fair more closely conies to the people than does any other organization in the commonwealth. To keep the fair management without the pale of undue influences, the law makes the Board of Agriculture a non-partisan body, and the hope of gain cannot be an incentive to obtain membership, for the members receive $5 a day for only time actually in I the service of the fair, amounting to about S6O a year. The members can have no personal interests in the fair or its property. Each member is elected for a term of two years, and he continues In service only as long as the agricultural district which be represents says he may. Capabißty means | a continuation on the board for the reason that experience adds to the |Worth of a member in fair management, yet the membership is constantly undergoing changes.
| The fair grounds is one offthe most [valuable pieces of real estate in Indiana arid it belongs to the people. It is [held in trust for them by the board, fwhich cannot sell or incumbtr the property without permission from the [legislature. The fair is not operated [for the profit of any man, not even for The board which conducts it. Its profits year after year are trnmed back into the upbuilding of the exposition. (Therein lies the secret of the fair’s continuous expansion and the abiding faith which the people of the state have in it as a source of education to the farmer and wholesome enjoyment to every class.
BATTLE IN THE CLOUDS
Pain’s Great Aerial Spectacle | At the Indiana State Fair. ! The most elaborate spectacle ever [offered at the Indiana State Fair will Ibe given the week of September 12, when Pain’s new pyrxiero-milltary display, "Battle in the Otouds” is presented. It will be a big night attraction of the fair, given on and above the infield of the racetrack, where 26,000 people may witness It in comfort. Experience of other years has shown fair management that the crowds cannot all be taken care of at the night horse show in the colteegm, and “Battle in the Clouds’’ has been provided to give pleasure to as many thousands as may go to the exposition in the tvs nlng. “Battle in the Clouds” undertakes to give a look into the mode of w&r fare which may prevail in the year 2,000 A. D., when airships, aeroplanes, herial torpedoes and gas grenades become the engines of human conflict. The spectacle will require a stage 400 feet long, behind which Will be stretched sceneries reaching to sixty feet in height, showing a progressive city °of the time. On its streets will be several hundred men [and women in costumes to enjoy a fete day, with processions, sports and acrobatic pastimes. When the fete is fat its height, wireless messages bring word of the approach of an enemy’s air fleet, and suddenly the scouting vanguard floats over the city. The forts open fire with electric shells, driving the aerial monstesu Into retreat, but soon the main fhset advances and opens the attack. ■ The fort and the fleet open a terrific bombardment of fire sheila, aerial torpedoes and-hursting bombs, filling the heavens with fire, electric flashes and [thunderous detonations. Some of the alrshipß are disabled and leave the ering line; one explodes high In the lr; another becomes disabled and dashes to the ground, its man escaping In parachutes. The airships bombard the city's fortifications with high explosives, fire balls and grenades. BatAery after battery is silenced and finally the magazine is blown up. Towers jand buildings in the city fall and burn and devastation and ruin follows. The spectacle is marked by vividness and thrilling excitement, and Includes elaborate vaudeville. sad firework*.
Those Republican Resolutions and How They Were Not Fulfilled.
The Democrat has challenged us to a statement about a set of resolutions passed by the last republican convention that nominated a municipal ticket and we are reaMy pleased to have this urged upon us. We have felt it a duty to recall those resolutions several times and have been waiting until the Democrat considered it apropos. The resolutions were passed without a dissenting voice at the convention, but without very hearty endorsement, and had the real will of the majority of those who attended the convention been expressed we believe they would not have carried. The author of the resolutions presented them to the writer the day before the convention and stated that he thought they were Just the thing. A reduction in the salary of the mayor from $250 to $l5O and of the councilmen from SBO to SSO was advocated by the resolution and also that the city marshal be made the city teamster. The writer of this article stated to the author of the resolutions that he believed the proper place for. them was in the waste basket. They did not have the appearance of sincerity thaf a party platform should have and the apparent economy thus to be secured was so small as to appear puerile. We are not in favor of the reduction of salaries where a man earns his money. The Republican published the resolutions as a part of the action of the convention, but gave them no endorsement, as falsely charged by the Democrat.
Probably the Democratic sage, who prides himself and frequently plumes himself with the egotism that he is some pumpkins legally, knows that a council has nothing to do with the salaries of its own members during the term for which they are elected. This, however, is a fact, although we do not expect the Democrat to call attention to it. The council took its seat on Jan. Ist, whereas the last opportunity to pass an ordinance reducing the salaries expired at the last regular meeting of the old council prior to the city election. No matter how sincere the men who accepted nomination on the ticket and cjn the platform may have been, they were helpless to enforce the resolutions and an ordinance passed now providing for those reductions would not be operative until after the term for which the present members are elected, shall have expired. It is doubtful if any provision could be made to have the marshal act as the city teamster. His duties are defined by the law and the city council has no jurisdiction beyond the law. It is impossbile for this council to enforce the resolutions if it so chose. However, personally, we believe that the resolutions were balderdash and we deplored their passage then, as we do now. They looked like a falsehood and they have not betrayed their looks. We don’t believe any person was deceived by them and they should pass into history as a bit of foolhardy politics that was really very discreditable, but that did no injury to any ope.

DOING THEIR DUTY.
Scores of Rensselaer Readers Are Learning the Duty of the Kidneys. To filter the blood is the kidneys' cuty. When they fail to do this, the kidneys are sick. Backache and many kidney ills follow; Urinary trouble, diabeteß. Doan’s Kidney PlTts cure them all, Rensselaer people endorse our claim. Mrs. Aaron Hickman, % N. Front street, Rensselaer, Ind., says: “In my opinion Doan’s Kidney Pills are the best kid- \ ney medicine on the market. I have taken them at different times when suffering from attacks of backache and other symptoms of kidney complaint and I have always received prompt relief. Three years ago I first began their use and they proved so satisfactory that I have had no desire to change to hny other remedy. I was so well pleased with the benefit I received from my first trial of Doan’s Kidney Pills that I gave a statement for publication recommending them, in the spring of 1907. Since then when I have heard anyone complain of kidnei trouble or backache, I have suggested that Doan’s Kidney Pills be procured at Fendlg’s Drug Store and given a trial. Different members of my famii/ have taken this remedy and like myself, have been greatly benefited.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co..
