not less that five per cent. per annum. >
This law has been in force ever since.
In some cases the interest which has
been accruing on these worthless bonds
amounts to more than the principal
itself, while in all cases the interest is
very large. Congress has. annually
been making appropriations to meet
the accruing interest on these worth

for the various Indian tribes. The
interest on the bonds distracted under

has been defrauded up to July LIST,

4 Good Chaace. TO buy span of
Growth Of San Francisco.

The following from the Daily Chroa-
iccle, shows that our city ranks as the
seventh city in population in the United
States. The last census gives these
figures: New York, l, 060, 900; Phil
adelphia, 500, 900; Brooklyn. $40, 900;
St. Louis, $50, 900; Chicago, 100000;
Boston, $40, 900; San Francisco. $780,
900. In 1913 San Francisco was an
unocupied waste of sanddunes upon
the margin of bay upon which there
was never steamship, and seldom
a sailing vessel, and upon the coast of
an ocean almost unknown to commerce
California had then few thousand Of
mixed population. 1t was two thous-
and miles west of American civilization,
while the only practical mode of reach
ing it, was across cotlnent that had
neither roads nor settlements, or by a
long sea voyage. Twenty-eight years
have passed and We are, in point of
population, the seventh city of Ameri-
ca, and in point of wealth, intelligence
and virtue, the first. When our next
census comes around we expect to be
the fourth in the Union. We shall
beat honest old Boston on a square
count, and if the rivalry between St.
Louis and Chicago does not, as usual,
give them false figures upon which to
brag ont their local jealouses We will beat
them. We may have to borrow about
seventy-fve thousand from Oakland
and vicinity to make up our figures,
but with them and twenty-five thous-
and more from other suburban villages.
we will be able to take the conceit out
ofChicago and St. Louis, and take our
rank No 4 Of American cities. BY
another decade We will give Philadel-
phia and Brooklyn the go-by, and in
one more will bid good-by to New
York, and take our position as the
first city Oh the continent - Resources
Of California.

Thursday was indeed gala day.
Early in the morning teams began

ture appeared. But this show differs
from a great many others IN tbst, the
show inside the canvass is fully equal
to the street parade. Inside OF tho
menagerie, we found very nice as
sortment of animals, consisting Of
five elephants, ranging in size from
the little baby, only SO inches high,
to the monster, over II feet high,
together with old and young camels
and dromedaries, the living giraffe,
Alaska sea lions, Hipdoo sacred cat
tie, lions, tigers ostriches, hyenas,
baby monkeys, apes, and very fine
collections of birds. One of the
most noticeable features and one of
common remark was the cleanliness
and good condition OF the cages and
animals.
The Menagerie alone is worth
more than the price of admission.
But passing into another mammoth
tent, you have the opportunity tS
witness one of the finest circus pei.
Torrance travelling. Each perform
er seemed to vie with the other TO
exceed in his or her particular branch
of the performance. The tumbling
was good and among the y OR Is
performers it was hard to choose the
best one. The splendid athletic per-
formances of the Jasper Brothers,
was as good as anything ever wit
messed in this country. The riding
of James Robinson, the champions
rider of the world, was the browning
feature Of the entertainment. His
feat of carrying his son upon his
head, while riding bareback horse
was received with rounds of ap-
plause. The performance was first
class in every respect. 1t was the
most quiet, orderly conducted show
which has ever visited this city, for
which Messrs. Cooper, Bailey Il Coz
deserve special commendation~-

The Fourth A Grand Centen-

and BOuntiful Repast.-Wood
County did herself justice on the oc-
caslon Of the centennial celebration of
the national birthday. At one time
1t looked as though the patriotism of
our people had got to so low an ebb
that patriotic observance Of this day

but thanks to the more patriotic and

with no delay, the programme was
carried out with only few omissions.

by the glee club. National airs were
by the band, and impromptu
speeches by Rev. Father PERRIN, who
spoke feelipgly and with excellent wis
dom, Geo. r. Gardner, Rev. NJ.
Evans, IL. Hayden and others closed
the exercises at the stand. The vast
multitude found an abundance OF good
things at the tables, but for so large an
assemblage, it was absolutely impos-
sible to farnish all with a robust din
ner. Our people did well and we are
sure they have the thanks of the peo-
pie of the county for their efforts
made to render the occasion one to be
with pleasure in days to
come.
After the exercises the people dis
persed to their homes to entertain
friends, or to places of amusement,
and there we're many, determined to
put in the day for all it was worth,
feeling how positivc was the fact that
scarcely one could hope to attend an
other Centennial Celebration of our
natal day.
THE STATES.
The young ladies representing the
states were a beautiful feature of the
occasion. To the Misses Huntington |
belongs all the praise for this beauti-
'ul presentation. Without money and
without price they took upon them
selves all the responsibility of the

We were favored with brief call
from Hon, John t. Kingston, Niece
dab, few days ago, on which occa-
sion we were informed by Mr.. K. that
the discovery of Kaolin in the vicinity
of Grand Rapids, Wood County. is
likely to be succeeded by the estab-
lishment Of a large mandatory of
Kaolin Brick and Porcelain ware, of
various descriptions, in that locality.
The test of the Kaolin clay has proved
it to be of superior quality and of i'm
mense value. The Hon. gentleman
was on his way to the place above
mentioned via. Wis Valley R. r., for
the purpose of encouraging the project
of manufacture, and to give the enter
prise a fright shoulder in sreenbacks,

THE DEMOCRATIC press and
among its leading papers, the Green
Bay Advocate is spreading the false
hood that Governor R. B. Hayes is a
salary grabber ;that he voted for the
bill and pocketed the stamps. The
statment is wilfully false and the leading
papers know it so to be. Hayes was
not member Of the congress that
passed the salary bill. The bill was
supported by one Hayes from Ala

THE GROUNDS.

THE GROUNDS.
The committee appointed to procure
grounds, selected capital spot near
the race course where ample shade
was provided, and there laborious but
willing hands erected tables capable of
accommodating a thousand persons,
besides most excellent seats. and an
ample stand for the speakers and visit
ors from abroad. Everything was az
ranged with taste and with an eye to
the accommodationsof the vast gath
ering to he, and in this, not one was
disappointed They did come, from
far and near till every town was faith
fully and honorably represented.
THE EVENING
of the third betokened rain, but thanks
to kind Providence, a fairer morning
never dawned The air was cool and
bracinS with not cloud to be seen.
Before the day had fairly dawned, the
signal gun, which was loud hint for
the ringing of all the bells in Grand
Rapids and Certralia, belched forth
its thunder, and almost instantly the
air was broken into million wavelets.
and such a medley of bell minstrelsy
We never before heard. For fully an
hour the ringing was kept up hardly
without cessation. At sunrise the
PEACEMAKER of Centralia made it.
self heard by one hundred guns which
was the token for the hosting Of flags
aud immediately there was such dis
play of bunting as was never before
seen in little Wood. Every little boy
seemed to sport the Stars and Stripes,
and every little girl put on her red,
sOhite and blue striped stockings bright
and early.
At o'clock our streets began to
show signs of a mighty influx from all
parts Of the county and by 10 o'clock
it was one vast surging throng. The
various civic societies, and bodies
which were to participate III the pro-
cession began to assemble and at sea-
sonable hour they proceeded to the
Catholic Church where the procession
was formed under the supervision of
Marshals Breasted and Lavigne.
Promptly at 10:45 the procession
started in the following order:
1st, Martial Music.
Cd, Fire Company.
Sd, Free Masons.
18th, Odd Fellows.
9th, St. Johns Society.
9th, States.
7th, Band
6th, Blacksmith Shop.
9th, Lumber interest represented by
saw logs DECORATED with red, white
and blue.
10th, Kaolin Brick Kiln.
18th, Bakery.
18th, Citizens.
The appearance Of the long line was
imposing. Never before was there so
beautiful so grand display in our
streets.
The various industries represented
were an excellent feature of the pro-
cession, and to the parties who were
SO patriotic and selt-denying, who Ia
bored to present the mechanical, the
useful and the beautiful, and thus give
to the people of Wood County a just
idea of our resources our citizens owe
an everlasting debt of gratitude. The
