BIC DOWNS DAY,
For % Years July 27th Has
Been Celebrated.
Commemorate the Birth of the
Municipality.
BAILEY THE SPEAKER.
Candidate For Governor the
Orator This Year.
There Will Be Many Bands and
Good Time.
An Example of What Push Will
Accomplish.

1.-THE 9th of Downs is historic. 1t
has been for % years and it may con-
ttnue to grow in historic worth until it
will become a stated holiday in Kansas.
Everyone who lives in northwestern
Kansas for hundred more miles
around the town knows what the term
means. To the uninitiated it might be
explained that it is the 9th of July,
the anniversary of the founding of the
town of Downs in Osborn county,
The day the town was organized the
citizens celebrated the fact that the
municipality had been declared a city
of the third class. On each anniversary
since they have celebrated because the
town was year older. At the first Gel
ebration the population of Downs about
hundred perhaps, took part. Since
then, year by year, the celebration has
grown in Importance and the crowds
have likewise increased until it is not
unusual for eight or ten thousand per-
sons to attend the celebration and one
year the estimate of the crowd was 49,
600 which is about Is times the present
population of the town. 1t makes no
difference what the size of the crowd is,
the people managed to accommodate
them in a manner which brings the Wis
1torS back year after year.
The fight between Cawker City and
Downs for the division point on the
Central Branch of the Union Pacific
railroad, now part of the Missouri
Pacific system, was responsible for the
the event. When the road was built
through that part of the country it was
expected to be one of the lines running
from Missouri river points to Denver.
Two of them, the one from Kansas City
and the one from Omaha got through
but the Central Branch stuck at Lenora
in Norton county. 1t is still hoped by
the people who live on the Central
Branch that it may be extended to Den
yer. Since it was bought by the Goulds
a few years ago that hope has strength
ened. But when the Central Branch
was building there was no doubt in the
minds of the people but that it would
reach Denver. The officials of the road
wished to make Cawker City. in Mitch
ell county. division point on the road.
In those days Cawker City could have
been covered by a good large Mexican
sombrero. figuratively speaking 1t has
grown since Downs was about the
same size. The mayor of Cawker City
when he heard that the Central Branch
people wished to make Cawker an i'm
portant place Immediately decided that
the city was quite important. Just
what the trouble was has been lost in
the "a years which have elapsed but
some bonds did not carry and when that
happened and Downs extended a warm
and cordial invitation for the division
point it went there and has stayed
there.
Downs was happy when that happen

entertaining the people, says Jim"
Davis. Everything is free in the
amusement line
This year we expect to have a better
entertainment than for the preceding
years and all will have a good time
The different con mittees are at work
and will try to have a good line of
amusements for all. Excursion trains
are run to Downs on the Central
Branch railway from Greenleaf and as
far east as Atchison. Also from Stock
ton on the South branch and from
Lenora on the North branch Often 35
to 40 coach loads arrive on these special
excursions. The trains depart about 10
p. m. and it's great sight to see the
crowds. All hustling for seats and
while tired from this days fun, all are
good natured and happy. The funny
man is in his glory. After the depart
ure of the trains the people retire to
their homes for a good nights rest The
following day finds things about as
well mixed as though Mt Peiee had been
in action. But it's soon cleaned up, the
town assumes its usual tenor, and Downs
is back to her normal condition and every
thing goes on as usual with only re-
membrance to us of the thousands of
visitors we entertained few days be-

Downs Now the management of the
annual celebrations has to- thresh the

politicians who wish to speak there. The
wheat is separated from the chaff. The
good ones are accepted
On the 9th of Downs the town puts
