Richland Clarion: If securing q
good orator has anything to do with
the success of our Fourth of July,
Richland has surely played the trump
card. At the preliminary meeting to
considerlthe advisability of celebrat-
Ing the Fourth, John Carmichael was
instructed to invite Hon. John F..
Lacey to deliver the address on that
day. Mr.. Carmichael reports that
Mr.. Lacey has accepted the invita-
tion. Mr.. Lacey's national reputation
as an orator of the first water in
sures that a large crowd will be
present to hear him and the Fourth
of July managers are to be congrat-
ulated on securing the services of
this splendid speaker.
