The funds were used as by law required, but the making void of the license requires a return of the amount of license money still unused. The matter was submitted to the court on briefs. motions and arguments were heard and several matters finally disposed of. Attorney E. R. Dampier of Akeley appeared before Judge Spooner horses on exhibit, cattle, sheep, swine, chickens, turkeys, geese, ducks, pigeons, grains, grasses, vegetables, fruits, flowers, dairy and household products, domestic manufactures, fancy work, photo- graphs and products from county schools.

Father and mother and Uncle John shy (or used to) just a little on the circus; but, good-hearted people that they are, they yield to the demands of the children (so they say) and take in the circus just the last forty years, and this in spite t—— of the fact that their children have meantime grown up and are now making the same old stereotyped excuses for taking it in themselves.

The| case arises from the issuance of a liquor license to parties and later, by operation of law, the licensefi became void when the Little Fork| village was incorporated. The law provides that one-half the amount appellant was represented by H. B. Fryberger of Duluth and the plain- tiffs and respondents were repre- sented by John C. Hessian of Aitkin. In the case of J. A. Hendricks vs. A. O’Conner and wife, the judgment previously rendered was opened and the defendants were given permission to answer, the judgment previously entered being permitted to stand as security. The defendants are resi- dents of Clearwater county. An interesting decision was ren- | dered yesterday when Judge Spocner decided the case of E. C. Garrigan vs. D. C. Fuller. The defendant Fuller obtained title to a tract of Hubbard county land through a tax option contract. Bolton and Harry agreed on the purchase price of a refuses to sign the deeds. The court, by his findings, gives judg- ment and a decree for the plaintiff. Court Notes. Clerk of Court F. W. Rhoda issued twenty-seven naturalization papers yesterday. H. B.

The committee has not received a single turn-down, as the strictly business-like manner. in which the fair ‘is being cond@:ted precludes any suspicion of “‘?mft" or other insinuation, except that all of the funds will be appropriated to a good purpose. There is still a considerable sum needed, and the committee is con- tinuing its good work.

While the premiums offered by the fair association are not very large, at the same time they are very liberal when" compared with the premiums offered by. any county fair. The intention in offering premiums is by no means to pay one for bring- ing in and making exhibits; rather for the purpose of assisting ina better cultivation of the soil and in advanced farming generally.

Both are part and parcel of our lives, and while age may somewhat dull the keen edge of our anticipation, there is yet marked the annual approach of the great event. In a smaller way it is like the war—an epochal period from which time is reckoned, such and ' such things having occured before or after the fair.
