The Api'Roacihno Fair akd TotritNAKKirr
in exciting some little interest, hereabouts,
al this time. Sometime since we expressed
the opinion that, in view of the opposition
expressed by a goodly number of the citi
zens of this county, to the Tournament fea
ture of our Fair, we thought it best not to
offer :my purse at, the approaching October
Fair. Our Local wrote an article in the last
issue of this paper, urging the people to sub
scribe liberally funds to carry out the tour
nament arrangement. While we are free to
confess that we do not see that immoral fea
ture in this little sabre and horseback exer
cise which makes the tournament objection
able to some of our readers, we nevertheless
feel bound to respect their opinions and to
accord to them an honest, conscientious op
position. The tournament does not proper
ly attach to an agricultural fair —it is only
a side show, designed to add interest and
afford amusement for the occasion ; and in
asmuch as it is not vitally, or even directly
connected with the fair, and can be dispens
ed with without injury to the exhibition’
and, inasmuch as a considerable number of
our citizens are opposed to it; and, in order
to remove all obnoxious features in the ex
hibition, so as to bar no one from enjoying
the occasion on the grounds of immorality,
and to more thoroughly enlist every one in
building up and supporting the enterprise,
we would recommend that the exhibition be
confined to its legitimate design—that of an
old-fashioned agricultural fair—nothing
more, nothing less. If the tournament must
take place, let it take place on the day after
the fair is closed, and let it be distinct and
separate from the fair. We want to see
every cause of opposition to the fair remov
ed, and our people united in carrying out
fully its objects, by standing shoulder to
shoulder, and all pulling in the same direc
tion. In this way every good citizen wiJ
become interested, and Bartow county will
have an annual exhibition of her resources
worthy of a great county and a great people, j
The shares have been reduced to ten dollars
eaoh, in order that every one who wishes
may buy a share and not miss the money,
and in order farther that shares may be ac
cessible to citizens in all parts of the county
and section, so that every district may be
represented in the Executive Committee,
and thereby have an equal voice in all that
is said and done.
The association, as now organized, is not
intended as a joint stock concern, and, we
hope, that all the shares will be taken up
at once, by tbe districts which have, as yet,
taken but little stock, and let, a thorough or
ganization of the Association be bad, as ear
ly as practicable. W ; e are anxious to see a
good fair in Oct.; one that will reflect credit
upon the county and section, and be an hon
or to the people; and in order .that this may
he the case, let every one who feels
'n the prosperity of this county and section,
"like up to the importance of making this
organization and fair a complete success.—
If every one who can, will put something on
exhibition, lay aside petty prejudices and
animosities, and come together as one man,
for the furtherance of a common interest,
Hie Central Cherokee Georgia Agricultural
Association Fair, for 1871, will make a
grand era in the history of this highly favor
ed land of ours, and one that will afford ad
ditional attractions to manufacturers and
settler* who are now, and who will be here
after, prospecting for homes and for invest
ment of their capital. .Nature has lavished
hi*beat gifts upon this section of cfinMry,
mid we are blest with abundant material re
sources to make us one pf the greatest peo
ples on the inhabitable glebe. Thplse re
sources have been only partially developed;
just enough has been done in this direction
*o convince us of what might be done, if tbe
proper steps were taken and efforts put forth.
'** ft o better way can this be done than
through our agricultural faij*. We can there
'hrw to the world what our resources are—
l*r variety, quality, and quantity. These
“'"cnhural lairs are advertisements s«t
ng tortli the prominent advantages one
' don ot country possesses over another—

some other sections are far in advance of
us in the, development pf resources, but noC
in the resources themselves. Fairs are the
channels through .which these resources are
to be br«;gbt to ;li c hL , . ,
W e again urge upon the people of Bartow
and those counties adjoining, which intend
to take stock in the. Central Cherokee Geor
gia Agricultural Association, to come for
ward and do so without delay. The timeds
short in which to prepare for the Annual
l air in October—only one month remains.
W e hope and trust, for the credit of old Bar
tow county and her enterprising citizens,
that every one will lend a helping hand in
bringing our approaching fajr up to tbtU*
standard of excellence, "as that we all wilf
feel proud of our county, section, resources
and people. The fut ure success of this very
laudable enterprise, Lings altogether upon
our next fair. It it is a success the enter
prise will be a fixed fact for all time to come;
if, however, it should be a failure, it will
end the chapter insofar as agricultural fairs
in this county are concerned, in our opin
ion.

the death ot the Rev. James Rainwater, of
Campbell county, Ga., which event trans
pired, at his home, on the 2nd day of June
Inst. He had been a devoted minister of
the Baptist .Church since the year 1820,
and died in tbe faith. Many have been tire
happy hours that we have Bpehtlfi listening
to the Words ot Life as tlvey fell from his |
devoted lips. Many the times that he has -j
led us into green pastures and beside still;
waters of salvation. ’Twas he that led us
into the baptismal fount, and into the path
of Christian duty. With the poet we say:
‘•Servant of God, well done,*
Rest from thy loved employ ;
The battle fought, the vict’yy won,
Enter into thy Master’s joy.”
