The committee i'll charge of the
dinner given by the Royal Neigh
bors of America at the Woodmen
Hall on Thanksgiving eve, express
appreciation for the liberal support
from the Woodmen and all who at
tended and contributed in making
the samoa success. The commit
tee was composed of Mesdames
Lundy, Tribe, Irwin and Nye. We
may add that the committee deser-
YES credit for the successful manner
which the affair was conducted.
Daniel Boyd has purchased the
Columbia Pharmacy and has taken
charge. H r. HAYES left Tues
day evening for Spokane, where he
will remain for short time. He is
thinking strongly of going down
into Mexico. Mr.. Hayes has con-
ducted the pharmacy for over a
year and has made many friends
who regret to see him leave, and
who wish him all manner of sue
ces i'll whatever locality he may
land.
The st. Paul & Tacoma Lumber
Company find it next to impossi-
bic to secure enough coal to supply
the local consumption. Orders
sent i'll by them a month ago re-
main untitled. The sitSasios5 is
becoming serious nearly all ovei
the state. At Seattle a serious
shortage is threatened. The min
ers employed i'll the. lssaquah mines
are on strike. The dealers who
draw their supply from other mines
are doing everything in their power
to supply the demand, but their eff
forts are unavailing. The reason
why the mines have not been able
to accumulate coal this season is
that they have been unable to- Sc
cure miners in sufficient numbers
to mine it as rapidly as they would.
There is little probability that the
Issaquah strike will soon be settled
and there are murnurs of discon-
tent among the miners of other
mines. Should further disturb
ance occur it will bring about ser
ions state throughout the middle
and western Washington.

One Tale is Good Until An

The Texan Press of Plain
view, in an exhaustive rhapsody
last week. takes The News to
task for having cOntradicted
the statement that Plainview
merchan ts were making prices
that could not be equaled in
Canyon City or any other rail,

the columns Of The News week
before last. Bro. Press now
SAYS that "we only said that we
could buy goods as cheap in
Plainview as they could be
bought in Canyon City and have
nothing to take back. " The
reader will readily appreciate
the contrast between could
not be equaled" and "as cheap

THE FOURTH OF JULY.

The citizens of our town,
evidently believing that the
truest patriotism, like the tru,
est religion, is least noisy,
made little outward demoustra-
ton that the great and memor.
able Fourth of July had added
another year to its anniversary.
Some fshed, Others played
ball and others enjoyed the
momentary excitement, while
Others found pleasure in the
quiet solitude of their homes.
The ball game IN the after
noon was witnessed by good
ly crowd of spectators, the ar
ray Of contestants which were
dubbed "KafIir korners, and
Local Leaguers, finding
friends alike among the good
natured, indolent crowd. AS
the game progressed without
any especial tinge of excitement
except the occasional score by
the "Leaguers," the thlrsters
of excitement began TO fear a
lack Of interest in the game. AT
this juncture, Oscar Smith, in
order to relieve some of his
players of that self-conceit,
which sometimes gains posses
sion of amateur ball players,
changed the position of his men,
to their confident advantage and
i'll reality to their disadvantage,
and here the "Kaffir Korners"
made start and reaped a har-
vest. The score in a few min
utes was gaining alarming pro
portions and the "Leaguers"
probably for the time being felt
a little awed. But through the
errors of several of the "Kaffir
Korners" at this stage of the
game, the tide was turned and
at the close the score stood s.
to 10. rf '7

THE BAPTIST COLLEGE.


Most of the papers Of the as,

College had more or less com
ment pro and con on the subject
last week and will no doubt
have new arguments this week
As far as Canyon is concerpeG
in the matter, she is satisfied
with the business of her claims
for the College aud as for en-
deavorius to get the other towns
and papers TO view it as we do,
we are content for the case to
be submitted to the great trlou-
nal on the 23rd, OF this month.
If we are defeated we will have
the satisfaction OF knowing
that we have made a good fight
and will not feel in the least
envious OF the town that secures
it. We want the College and
want il strong enough to ask
for it aud TO put up a good SUB
stantial bonus torit, but we can
not see where the gain would
be to tear our brothers hair as
some of the other towns are do.

We cannot TOO strongly urge
the necessity upon our citizens
of donating as literally as cir
cumstances vii! permit, to the
Reunion fund. The finance
committee assert that subscrlp-
tons are reluctantly given IN
some instances while in most
cases the donations have not
been as liberal as heretofore,
That conditions have materially
effected and in a measure de-
manded this mode OF procedure
is conceded by all, but We must
not lose sight of the fact that
in aiding this enterprise we are
making a safe investment and
one that will rebound with
greater profit than any we could
possibly make. The past sue
cesses Of the Reunion at our
place has given the event such
magnitude that people look in
pleasurable anticipation for its
succeeding anniversary. They
not only come themselves but
they indu their neighbors to
come. This factor alone has
done more 10 bring Canyon City
into prominence than all others
combined. Let one and all do
their very best in this matter.
