The Fourth of July celebration last
year was such a creditable affair that our
citizens now know what they can do in
honoring Independence Day, when they
set about it, and the fires of patriotism
need to be kept alive by a public oelebra-
tion of the Fourth of July every year.
Never vas there more need of love of
country and a veneration for the great
principles that underlie our free institu-
lions than now, and the way to arouse,
stimulate and perpetuate these true
patriotic feelings is to keep the American
eagle screaming.
Our business men have been invited to
Join in the parade, and make such a dis
play as will be a credit to them selves, the
day and the place. Why not have every
business place in town represented by a
float in the parade. The advertisement
thus given their business will fully com.
pensate for the trouble and expense
incurred.
The firemen are making every prepare
tioL to have their part of the parade in
every way first-class, while the other
exercises will DO such as to win popular
approval.
The Committee of Arrangements, on
behalf of the Firemen, extend a cordial
invitation to the business men and other
citizens to participate in the parade on
the coming Fourth of July. All wishing
to do so will please report at tho Public
