The coming County Fair nt Provo is not getting the attention atten-tion from the public press that it deserves. There are too many wires being manipulated by peo ple actuated by selfish motives. It is bad policy to quarrel over the Glory which is in prospect lest it become alarmed and fly away; lot us first corral the glory and then figure on the divi dends. There must be a unity of purpose pur-pose and effort in this matter, or there will be no County Fair worthy of the name. There are but verr few people who would 11 t T. 1 iue to see man county make a failure of such an enterprise, and thank Heaven those fw aro in reformatory institutions maintained main-tained by the Stale. The writer came from Trem-poaleau Trem-poaleau county Wisconsin, a county of about 20,000 inhabitants inhabit-ants who were principally farm ers. Jhree ruir associations in thatcounty held annual fairs. One of these associations is nearly if not quite thirty years of nee. These annual gatherings are great events in their several com munities. Great displays and exhibits are mado in nearly all industrial and agricultural lines, and to people of an enquiring turn of mind tho possibilities in the way of the acqusition of knowledge are something im mense. Thcso fairs aro nearly always a finaucial success. The associations asso-ciations are incorporated, and are capitalized at from 12,000 to 13,000. Neighboring counties also hold fairs and the dates are so arranged that they do not con flict, and a person with tho in clination und licsure can, in the ulumn, attend a dozen in suc cession. Utah county has the advant age of the county above referred to in a great many respects when natural resources are considered. Her people are in every way equal, ond perhaps in some re spects superior, except that they have not yet acquirod the Coun ty Fair" habit.

STORRS ASSAILANT JAILED. A. Bad Young Man of Salina, One Madsen, the Man. The mystery as to who shot Arthur Storrs has been cleared up, and Chris MaJsen, a tough character of Salina, has confessed to the crime, Sheriff Storrs and Deputy Sheriff Ilrown having traced the crime so close to young Madsen that he thought best to make a confession. It seems that there has been bad feelings existing between Storrs aud Madsen for some time and Madsen says he did not intend in-tend to commit robbery, but was going to give Storrs a thrashing, but Storrs drawing a gun compelled him to shoot him. This story is consider ed to be very thin as he wore a mask and ordered Storrs to open the money till, Madsen has acknowledged that he Is on friendly terms with the Robbers Roost gang. Madsen was arrested Tuesday by Storrs. Brown and Marshal Martin of Salina at a sheep camp in the moun tains near that place. Feminine Influence. In a paper on "The Modern Ameri can Mood" (in Harper's for July), William Dean Howells calls attention to tho potent influence on our natural thought and life exerted by woman. He says on this point: "Shall I go a little farther and sav that this American world of thought and feeling shows the effect, beyond any other world, of the honor paid to woman? It is not for nothing that we have privileged women socially and morally beyond any other people; it wc nave made them free, they have used their freedom to make the whole national life the purest and best of any that has ever been. Our women are In raro degree the keepers Vtt&ftUL Ail uifu yiuu in iCTjeivtji.Lf.Hj tmsm of our consciences; they Influence! mm here as women Influence men nowhere no-where else on earth, and they qualify all our thinking, all our doing and being. be-ing. If our literature at its best, and our art at Its best, has a grace which isaliorcall the American thing In literature and art, it is because the g a e of the, moral world where our women rule has imparted itself to the intellectual world where men work. When it shall touch the material world to something of its own Hue-nes, Hue-nes, and redeem the gross business world from the low ideals which govern gov-ern it, then indeed we shall have the millennium in plain sight."
