U NION VILLE FAIR .18 IT WILL BE SEEJ‘ THIS YEJR. ’0“!!me of the low landing. and Grounh~~lamu of the Judgor - roll funicular-- The directors of this popular agricul- tural society met on Saturday last to make the final arrangements for the fair which is to take place on the 17th, 18th and 19th September. As these was a large mount of business to do in connection with fitting up the grounds and buildings the majority of the direc- tors met at 9 u.m., it having been de; cided to make a bee to put the grounds in proper condition. On our arrival on the grounds we found that while a, large amount of work had been done, a still larger amount was required to be done to put the finishing touches to the buildings and grounds. We first entered the Large Hall, 9. building built in the form of u ltomun cross. The first wing 28x4” will he used for ladies' work, having a large table ex- tending down the whole length with some half dozen wires on each side, on which to hang the larger articles emi braced in this department, Directly in the centre of the whole building and surrounding a. massive flag pole 64 xeet in height, is built the stand on which the display of house plants and flowers are to be made. This stand is built in the form of an ootogen, the bottom rows of shelving being 64 feet in length, the rows of shelves extending up the pole 12 feet. i This department was placed under the charge ofR.H.Heath. florist of Brockville. Owing to unfor- seen circumstances Mr; Heath int-S been obliged to cancel his engwnent and the directors have decided to divide the amount offered, $25, among the lady members of the fair, who will be paid for their display in proportion to the number and quality of the flowers they exhibit. The east wing has beendittgal up for the reception 01' domestic medu- facturers. fruit and vegetables. . The north Wing has been fitted with a. raised platform extending down each side 10 feet tong and 6 feet wide. These platforms will be used for the display of organs. sewing machines on one side and furniture.harness.etc.,0n the other, while the best wing will be used for butter and cheese on one side and vegeâ€" tables, etc” on the other.

We think we are perfectly safe in say- ing that this association can boast of having the most, and the best lot of cattle stalls in Central Canada. The whole western end of the prounds,com- prising some 8 acres of ground, is now devoted to the horse ring and judges' stand. The ring is a trifle over one- third of a mile in length. while the judges’ stand is placed in the centre of about i acre of ground, nicely leveled. surrounded by a. substantial picket fence. The Rustic Floral Hall has been re- moved outside the horse ring and filled with seats for the convenience of the ladies. Taking the grounds and build- ings as now arranged this association can proudly boast of one of the most“ complete and convenient show grounds in Ontario.

At about 11 am. the people begm to gather and there must have been fully 800 people who prepared Won the grounds. The committee worked ener‘ geticly and those who availed them- selves of the opportunity have no reason to find fault with the Wm. Hot and cold water was fm'nished to all in abundance, while the were not unmindful of the cantor-t of theteams, ashaywas an thegrsunds read to be served out to all whop- plie . In fact we do not remnber having attended a picnic where "ery- thing passed off without a ln'tch as it did at the Scott act picnic on Tuesday last. At a few minutes before 2 p. in. Mr. W.A. Webster, reeve 'ofLansdowne Front (who had came out on the special invitation of the committee to preside); took the chair, and after calling on the village band to open the by playing a selection, requested the er. Mr.Blair to lead the meeting in prayer. The chairman’s speech came next on the program and was short, pithy and to the point. Mr. George R. Webster was the next speaker, and in a 80 min- ute speech explained the difl'erence be- tween the old Dunkin act and the Scott act, completely refuting the arguments of King Dodds and. other anti-Scott ora- tors that the difference was very little if any between the two. 'After another piece by the band the Rev. S.D.Chown, of Kemptville, took the platform and for an hour and a half held the rapt at. tention of the audience. Thevlimited space at our disposal will not permi‘ even a synopsis of the arguments n dueed, only to say that any who d not hear! the rev. gentleman’s discour, missed a treat that was well Wort driving miles to hear. WE TOLD YOU SO ' THE SCOTT JCT WI” IJ HJLTOJ‘ COUNTY. VICTORY Rev. '1‘ G. Williams, of Brockvill.‘ . was the next speaker. He dwelt pin. cipall with the Brockville speech 01' King odds and the Farmersville speecl‘ of I. C. Lee, and from the Blue Books of thé Dominion (so often quoted by the anti-Scott orators) fully provod to every bearer present that the whiskey champions would stoop to any kind of prevarication and untruth to mote out, their side of the cage.
