for the purpose of annually holding a
fair in Payette. The Driving Club
cers, which developed the fact that
the club was in the best financial
shape it has ever been in, the club
shape it has ever been in. Several
special matters were considered.
The first matter presented

The plan met with the hrartkst up
proval of the club and by a
(rOioljs resolution approving the
the club authorized ilie President to
unaia
step
appoint a committee of three to
work with the driving club in s< li
ing the stock and arranging for the
fair next fall. It was the opinion ot
the club that the plan woul-J meet
with the approval of all interested in
Payette and that sufficient
could be raised in time by selling the
money
of
stock to make the initial start
the fair this fall at some date to in
decided later.
The next matter of interest discuss
ed by the club was brought forward
by President Hambly regarding the
turning of water into the Fayette
Heights ditch, which event will oc
cur in about six weeks. In a short
talk the President called attention to
the fact that he was certain
the
yet
people of Payette had not as
fully realized the direct benefits that
would accrue to this vicinity
the building of that ditch. He thought
it a fitting occasion for a
demonstration by this city and his
plan met with the heartiest approval
of the club and he was by
aud vote authorized to appoint a com
mittee of three to prepare for this
celebration and arrange a date
from
monster
moiion
for
the same.
In this connection President Ham
bly also brought forth a plan which
met with the heartiest approval of
the club. Ilis idea was for the club
to take hold of a proposition to from
yea to year plan a line of shade

that in his opinion it could by
planting of trees and very little oth
work be made one of the

Uie general opinion that at this tim n
