CELEBRATION AT TOLEDO.
The American Eagle Screams
for the Glorious
Fourth.

The II8th. anniversary Of Amer
ican Independence was celebrate
at Toledo yesterday by about thou
sand people. The exercises Of tn
day were ushered in by the sunris
salute. At ten o'clock the grand pro
cession was formed and marched t,
the ground in the following order
Marshal of the day, the Toledo band
the old G. A. X. veterans, the Lib
erty car with the Goddess of Lib
erty and little girls representing
tie various states of the union, tl!t
Old Fellows in regalia, the indians
and the people Oh foot. On arriv
ing at the ground the various Gele
cations were seated and the eXer
cises begun. After few remarks
by tie president Of the day and
nrs'c by the band and glee cl1b
S.i,s Eun;ce Alexander real the
Jccl-ration Of Independence in ex.
cellent style. After more music
-+on. r. A. Bensell, Of Newport,
delivered the oration of the day.
His speech was good and patriotic
effort and was we'll received. He
was followed by Col. Kelsay, who
made short, but very appropriate
address, il the usual verbose and
brilliant style. After Col. Kelsay 5
address an adjournment was taken
for dinner, and the hungry crowd
leastel from well filed baskets and
tables. 1t was here that the barbe-
cued beef and baked clans came
III, and the supply of the former
was soon exhausted, though a whole
beef was roasted for the occasion.
Af;er dinner the crowd re-assem-
biel at the grounds and the baby
show became the center OF attrac-
ton. Seven fat, fine healthy hand
some babies were contestlng for the
prizes, and the judges, three con-
frmed old bachelors, were put to
it" for once in their lives, at least.
They finally made the following
awards: For best looking boy
baby, the child of Mrs. Balm, of
Newport; the child of Mrs. J. F.
Stewart, OF Toledo; for best looking
girl baby, the child of Mrs. NJ. E.
Peairs, of Toledo, first prize; the
child of Mrs. Chas. Tillotson, of
Toledo, second prize. After the
decision the judges scattered and
took to the woods to escape the
irate women.
After the baby show the next
was the appearance of the Plug
Uglies. These fairies made a good
and captivated the
crowd.
The next part of the program
was the Indian feather dance.
This was one of the most euter-
tanning features of the whole cele-
bration. Arrayed in their brilliant
and tall feather head
dresses, they performed theft Pc
culiar dance in elegant style.
After the Indian dance the crowd
to town. Then came
the tug of war" for the county
seat between West Yaquina and
Toledo. The first tug was foul
and was pulled over. The second
tug was hotly contested, and re:
suited in a victory for Toledo.
The day closed with a display of
fireworks at 9 o'clock, after which
followed grand ball at the court
house. This closed one of the best
celebrations ever held OH the Bay

WHILE we belong to the silverites, believe i'll free silver and all that, we think the Arkansas Press carries the fight for free silver too far when it demands that candidates for the Speakership of the next House oi Representatives and for President of the Senate to express themselves on the silver question. To occupy either of the positions named man should be a Democrat, competent, dignified, but as for his opinion on the silve. question, that should cnt no figure in the case whatever. = NAn Buren Tenure.
 All of which is very correct and directly in line with what the
 RAPHIc said few days ago. The 6peakership of the House and the Presidency of the Senate have noth- ang whatever to do with the silver question. As we'll ask the candi- dates to express themselves on their KeliGions beliefs.

ugly faces at each other, all over that dad sapped' silver question. Bro. Ludwig is an ardent champion of the white metal-the dollars oi our daddies and the money of the peepul' and the "constitooshune and wants the shining silver dollars to flow in silvery streams in un- limited and unhindered quantities and volume, regardless of their in- trinsie value and purchasing power; or else cause the last drop of the htart's blood of the hated and de spised gold bug to flow even up to Waite's bloody bridles
 Bro. Neal takes quite q different view of the situation, and during even the dog days has stood forth the bold and untiring advocate of sound money and the unrelenting champion of the financial policy of the administration. Entertaining views so totally at variance with the other, it is but natural that in the course of time these two bold cham pions should run amuck of each other. A few days ago the Conway Loq Cabjn contained the following paragraph
 The Helena World may succeed in reading such men as Juge W. s. Me Cain and Col. Dan w. Jones out of the Democratic party, but we doubt It. They were Democrats at the time the editor of the World was Republican. And when he was Re publican he was not any more of a gold bug than he is now.
 We knew when we read the above paragraph that the fur would soon fly, for Bro. Neal is recognized by the press of the State as scathing ang vigorous writer, and whoso- ever crosses q lance with him does so at his peril And then, too, we knew that Bro. Neal was not only a Democrat, but q straight Democrat at that, and that he was ever careful of his Democracy. So, what we have expected for several days has at tlast come to pass, Cor upon read ing the paragraph above quoted from the Log Cabia, the Helena World man immediately in his usually pungent manner indited the fol lowing
 If the editor of the Log Cabin as sumes, for any reason, that the editor of the War}d was once a Re publican, he should state his author ity and name .the act or acts which support the assumption. If he makes the statement however, upon his own responsibility and as fact, the editor of the World will be pleased to say that he is one of those kind of plain, everyday liars, whose connection with journalism some times brings the profession into dis repute. We would be pleased to see the esteemed Log Cabia seize one or the other horns Of the dilemma.
 Commenting upon the above the mysterious and unknown man who presides over the editorial destinies of the Little Rock Press says that he will back Ludwigs, whereupon we desire to take advantage of this occasion to volunteer our services as second for Bro Neal, and we beg to assure the principals that if they will leave tbe matter with their seconds that the affair will be amicably and bloodlessly settled. Life is too short and times too hard to quarrel about politics. We hope our esteemed friends will possess their sOulS in npacp

RELICS OF THE PAST.
Heirlooms Fashioned From The
Trunk of a Veritable Old
Family Tree

Mr.. Henry Wagner, a skillful carver
and turner Of this city, has just finished
an old fashioned German drinking cup,
made OF mulberry wood, on an order
from Mr. Charles Zalmanzig, a well known
citizen of this city. The cup has a his
tory.
In lS4S Mr.. Zalmanzig'S father settled
in San Antonio and built him a then pre-
tentious house of adobe, in then unset
tied prairie, which is now the southwest
eSn portion of Ward No. 4. 1t was one Of
the nnest houses in the city. The follow
ing year he planted row of mulberry
trees in front of his door. and his son,
Charles, was born the same year. Char
lev and the tree grew up almost side by
side, and though the tree grew taller, it
was not the more sturdy than the boy.
He played under its branches, as did his
brothers, and after the old home was
abandoned some years later, for a
more commodiOus homestead on North
Flores and Elmira streets, the tree still
guarded the house, which was let to ten
ants.
A few weeks ago the order from the city
council decreed that sidewalks should be
put down on College street and this was
where the old house, now No Ill College
street, was found to be located when
streets were laid out by our first city en-
gineerS. The old trees, some of which had
long since died, ard only two remained
standing had to be cut down to make
way for the sidewalk, and it was from the
Oldest of these trees that Mr.. IalmanZig
had his cup made. as keepsake.
He also had rolling pin and a potato
maSher made from the same tree, to pre-
sent TO other members Of the family.
