Lincoln county, the banner
county of the Sac and Fox coun-
try, and in fact, one of the most

county fair held at Chandler
three weeks ago, and is in charge
of H. W. Morrison, mayor of
Chandler, and I. C. Kimball, one
of the leading public spirits of
that place. Four first premiums
will be awarded this exhibit.
The display consists of white In-
dian corn, kaffir corn, squashes,
pumpkins, baled hay, cotton,
apples, pears, three varieties of
potatoes, black walnuts, tobacco.
The first premiums awarded this
county are for Indian .corn,
black walnuts, tobacco, hay and
squashes. When Lincoln county
starts out to do a thing she never
stops on any half work and the
exhibit at the Oklahoma fair this
year excels anything of the kind
ever attempted before. Mayor
Morrison and Mr. Kimball are
not missing an opportunity to
put their county in a right light
! before the people. They are
j courteous gentlemen and person-
i ally show the public the exhibit
; of Lincoln county and asfeist the
association in every possible
manner to put Oklahoma's re-
| sources before the people to the
i best advantage.—State Capital.
