The board of managers of the
Nebraska. Irrigation Fair held a
meeting; in this city yesterday,, the
members-present being" O. G. Smith
of Kearney, E- M. Searle and Matt
Danjrhertv of Ojralalla, E. McLer-
non of Sidney and Messrs. Park,
Seeberger, McDonald and Port of
this city. A permanent organiza
tion ot the association was effected.
by the election of W. I. Park pres
ident. E- F. Seeterger secretary,
and J. B. McDonald treasnrer.
After a thorough discussion it was
finally decided to have the fair open
on Friday, October 9th, for the pur
pose of receiving- and placing ex
hibits. Saturday will also be de
voted to the same purpose, and on
Monday the fair will be formally
opened and continue Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday- Col
onel Cody's show will be here on
the opening day, which will bring
thousands of people to the city, a
majority of whom wiH remain dur
ing the continuance of the fair. It
is the intention to ask the Union
Pacific company to run a special
train from Grand Island to this city
on the day on which the Wild West
exhibits. At the meeting yester
day the secretary was instructed to
make arrangements for advertising
the fair, one means of which will
be the issuance of 20,000 pamphlets.
Mr. Fort was delegated to confer
with the U. P. land department re
lative to having the company run
one of their harvest home excur
sions to this city during the week
of the fair- It was practically de
cided to enclose the grounds with a
seven-foot woven wire fence. The
erection of an exhibition hall was
discussed, but no definite action
action taken on the matter.
Murray & Mack's farce comedy,
"Finnigans BalL comes to Lloyd's
opera house on May 6th. The skit
is one of the funniest of the hilar

parodies, side-splitting dialogue
and situations, and brightened by
half a score of pretty young women
pehodddashuandchic. to tiie. per
formance. The company is headed
by Murray and Mack, the well-known-
eccentric Irish comedians,
who have long been favorites in the
vaudeville world. They are sup
ported by a clever company, num
bering fully twenty people, in
cluding George EL Emerick, the
author of the farce: Bert Lesiiev
Clayton E. White. Charles Lamb,
Vincent MrnneHi.Gracie Cummings.
the Loring -Sisters, Edith Newton,
Lonnie Deane, Winifred Stewart,
and Clara Burgess. The piece is
elaborately staged and handsomely
costumed, and all in all, the attrac
tion is one of the best specimens of
farce-comedy on the road.

A daily newspaper published in

Why is this so.
A correspondent of tie American
Economist gives some figures that
elucidate the present conditions of
enforced idleness inc. the United
States. During the quarter of the
year ending March 32f 1S90, the im
ports of woolen goods from the
Bradford (England) a district were
of the value of 54757,775. This
was the last quarteripreceding the
operation of the McKinley tariff.
During the quarter inding March
31 IS94, which was the last preced
ing the repeal of thatibeneficentact.
they had shrunk fo 51,310,010.
Nearly 53,500,000. of American
money previously sent to Europe in
payment for woolen goods was paid
to Americans for production of Eke
goods during one period of three
months. This is at the rate of an
increase of 514,00000,0 a year in the
wage fund for woolens alone. No
wonder that work. -was plentiful
and wages high during the protec
tive era.
During the quarter; ending March
31, IS95, the first three months of
operation of the Wilson-Gorman
tariff, the imports of woolen goods
to the United "State from the Brad
ford district were of the value of
59,947,740. During the first three
months of a democratic tariff the
people of the United States paid
55,637,730 more to British workmen,
and. by consequence, that much
less to American workmen, for
woolen goods only, than during the
last quarter of the operation ot the
McKinley tariff. This is at the
rate of more than 522.000,000 a year
of loss in one branch of American
manufactures. r
Therefore this is so. Therefore
six men are bidding for one job.

Sev. Z, B- Turman of table Rock
is probably the oldest minister in
Nebraska. - He preached the first
sermon in Lincoln thirty-nine years
ago. It was an open air meeting,
as there were then no houses where
the city now stands.
Table Rock people point with
pride to a secluded spot near their
Chautauqua grounds where John

caping from Kansas with a full
