STOCK ON PARADE

Large Crowd.

Good Races, Large Attendance and

Fair Grounds.
SEATTLE AND TACOMA IN EVIDENCE

A vast throng Of people crowded into
the grand stand at the fair grounds
this afternoon to view the stock pa
rade which took place at l o'clock.
Every animal that had been on exhibit
ton was in line and number of the
fast racing animals also passed in re-
among the horses, cattle and other
stock pranced along the line as though
they were proud Of the distinction of
being picked out for prizes by the
judges. No one disputed the merits of
the animals in line and every one de-
clared that they We're as handsome as
could be found on the Pacific coast.
The cattle owned by d. H. Looney of
Salem and those entered by Niordo
Mcdonald were the features of the
parade ana attracted the most atten-
ton from the spectators.
Another Large Crowd.
While the crowd was not so large
as that Of yesterday, yet there was
enough people out to fill the grand
stand and the grounds very comfort
ably. Puget Sound people We're out in
full force. The Tacomans held down
one section in the grand stand and the
Seattle bunch another. They were
far enough apart. however, to avoid
any miXup, and strange to say that
there was not the least bit of quarrel
ing over the name of the big mountain
that stands out 50 prominent near the
two leading cities on the Sound. They
entered in the several races however.
When a Seattle man offered to wager
little money on a race. he always
found a Tacoman ready to take the
other animal. While they did not
plunge very hard, they demonstrated
that they were all good sports and
were willing to back their judgment
with the coin.
In addition to the many out of town
visitors and the home people, there
was quite a number of the pioneers of
the valley in attendance, who dis
