The meeting of the directors of the
Macon Fair Association last night
proved one of congratulations on all
sides because of the success of the
State Fair. Every member of the hoard
of directors^was present. Tha work
of yesterday at the office of the secre
tary and treasury had proven satisfac
tory Tn'summing jip the expenditures
and accounts, and the receipts, as In
dicating the fair to have been a
financial success.
It was Impossible to get total ex
penditures ajnd full receipts ready to
report at the meeting, but sufficient
was done by the Officials yesterday to
assure the directors that all accounts
will be met with a probability of e
surplus.
The total gate receipts for the sea*
son will show a gain over last year.
The railroad coupons have not been
taken In by the fair association. These
will be reported probably today, being
the first of the month. It Is not known
definitely whai number of coupons
have been taken by the railroads and
thla will not be determined until all
settlements have been made.
The amusements have paid into the
hands of .the association a much larger
sum than last year. This fund last
year *was slightly above $3,000. This
year It hns amounted to $7,143.90. This
was exclusive of the receipts for
grand stand privileges amounting to
$971.70. These shows were taken In by
Vice President George A. Smith on the
70-30" basis. The funds realized from
the Seventh Cavalry performances were
much larger this year than last, pos
sibly 100 per cent.
The total gate receipts for the ten
days of the fair have been figured out
by the secretary and treasurer and
also the gnte receipts for each day of
tho fair. This account, however, Is
Incomplete because of the fact that
tho settlement with the railroads on
the coupons has not been made. The
hoard of directors were not ready to
give out these figure*, at the meeting
of last night. This will be done at
the meeting of next Monday night.
After all possible reports were made
at the meeting Inst night a motion wan
mnde by Mr. Joseph Bloch for the ap
pointment of a committee whose duty
shall he to audit the accounts of tho
secretary nnd treasurer nnd report at
tho meeting of tho board of directors
pext Monday night. President
Cabanls* announced the appointment
of this committee as follows: Mr.
Joseph Blooh, Mayor Smith and Mr.
I^on Dure. The hooks of the secre
tary and trenaurer. Mr. Redding nnd of
Mr. Anderson, the assistant, will be
audited during the week nnd this com
mittee will make a full report at the
next meeting. .
At the suggestions of Mr. Massee
the newspapers were requested not to
handle the figures presented at the
meeting Inst night on account of the
fact that they were not complete and
would require revision.
A motion was made to have adver
tisements placed for all outstanding
accounts. These accounts will he ask
ed for by the directors during the week
and the secretary and treasurer will
have them In hand at,the earliest pos
sible date. It was stated that the ac
counts to be paid by the fair associa
tion had been settled yesterdny and on
prior occasions, until at present $5,000
will meet all demnnds.
A motion was also made nnd passed
to call, on alt the railroads during the
week nnd make settlements for the
coupons In their hnds.
It was stated at the meeting that the
premiums paid up to the present time
amounted to $8,419.50. There are yet
premiums amounting to about $293 to
he paid.
Manager Calvin made an Interesting
report on the premutmx. He stuted this
had not been previously announced at
any of the state fairs. This statement
showed the per centa^e of the pre
mium! taken of the total amount offer
ed at the present fair. Of the $4,250
offered for agricultural displays. $4,300
were taken. The percentage of the pre.
mlums for live stock taken nt the pre*.
ent fair was 38.8. The percentage of
the premiums offered In the poultry ex
hibits was 78.3; in the woman's work
the percentage taken was 78.1; that
taken for the horses, etc., amounted to
58.7. The total percentage of all pre
miums taken amounted to 75.2. Mana
ger Calvin's figures were ordered
placed on the minutes of the meet
ing. This report also Included the
statement that there were contestants
for all premiums except in the depart-
partment of floriculture.
On motion of Mr. Massee the hoard
of directors extended a vote of thanks
to Vice President George A. Smith for
his untiring efforu to make tha fair a
complete auccess. This vote was taken
by rising and it was unanimous.
Smith made a short speech expressing
gratitude to the board of directors for
the high estimation they had placed
upon Ills services.
Upon motion of Mr. Leon Dure
vote of thanks was taken for the splen
did work 6t the executive committee In
their labors for the success of the fair.
Hon. Dudley M. Hughes, who was
present at the meeting, was asked to
speak, and he responded with some
very appreciative remarks for the i
cess of the fair. He was compliment
ary to the board of directors for the
manner in which they had conducted
the fair, and said the farmers of the
state and the Georgia State Agricul
tural Society were under obligations
to the Macon Fair Association for the
success of the fair. He extended thanks
to the board In behalf of the farmers
of the state and also in behalf of the
State Agricultural Society. He felt
assured that the Macon Fair Associa
tion had done honor to the entire state
in the creditable manner In which the
fair had been held, and said that the
farmers of the state were not only ap
preciative of the success of the fair,
but the men who had conducted the
business affairs and had contributed
to tho success of tho fair with their
mens were profoundly esteemed by
the farmers of the slate.
On motion of Mr. E. J. Willingham a
vote of thanks,was tendered Manager
Calvin for his excellent services during
the fair. This was taken and Mr. Cal
vln expressed appreciation of the kind
ness extended him by the hoard of dl
rectors. ,
Attorney S. A. Crump for the Macon
Fair Association was present and
stated at the meeting that he had just
returned from Atlanta, where he had
gone to present to the board of par
dons the petition for the reprieve of the
men who had been sentenced for run
nlng Jingle boards nt the fair. He said
he had confidence In the pleas set up
and believed the men would he par-1
doned. Ho stated that he had tried to
mnke It very plain to the board of par
dons that no one had Intended to gam
hie by the method for which the men
were fined.
The meeting adjourned within an
hour after the business was begun and
the members of the board of directors
were Jubllnnt nt the success of the fair.
All repqrts were not In, but It was from
those made that expenses would bo
met. The comparison with the reports
of last year showed .that the receipts
for the present fair had been better
than last and the expedltures have
proven lighter. Nb attempt was made
to place the exact figures, but the di
rectors thought they will he able
meet all expenses and still have
treasury not empty.
