the Fourth

Fourth of July Celebrati ton We
are authorized to announce that
this year Winslow will have the
greatest iolliticatiOn ever given
in Northern Arizona. Entries
for the different horse races are
rapidly coming in and from
present indications we will have
the very best of horses battling
for honors.
The committee is making a
strenuous effort to secure the

have more than reaSOua ble
expectation of landing this
corps of high class musicians

blaSe

Fourth.
In connection with the other
saddle races we are requested
to state that there will be a
special match race between hOr-
ses of Marley, the CattlmeE, and
a Navajo Chief. Both have fast
ponies, and at a recent trial at
st. Joseph. decided that the
question of superiority would
be settled at Wlnslow.
The Indians. are coming in one
thousand strong to back their
favoritieS and after the Fourth
some of us will be rich in blan
kets. etc. or else living on two
meals day.
1t is well known that the In
dians have some wonderfully
speedy racers and are always
willing to bet their last hair
Therefore it is either quail or
the feathers with the local hor
semen.
Colonel Woods. of Holbrook,
has announced his intention to
bring his string of running hor-
ses and this in itself means a
bit of excitement.
The committee at present are
looking about for large. strong
colored gentleman whose nerve
is equal to the task of placing
his head through a hole in a
canvas and allowing the festive
multitude to throw balls at him
for a consideration.

Christ showed the way and The only
way, whereby men may be saved
but His life n sacrifice will not
save us unless we are willing and
do follow His example to the best of
our ability and to the end of our
lives. What Christ did and suffered
was for the benefit of all humanity.
Had it been merely for the glorifica-
ton of Himself His sacrifice would
have been but the vain boast of a

more than He loved Himself, and
willingly suffered that men might

with a vacant lot-the man who for
ven or from laziness, keeps his
lot vacant, unemployed, unkempt,
waiting for the hard lift of the adj
joining property holders to pull up
the value of his possessions. The
extreme specimen of this sort is the
man who refuses either to clean up
or sell out; who at the solicitation
of his more public-spirited n%eighbors
will neither come in nor get out;
who fights public improvements that
involve taxes and takes the lift of
adjoining improvements as some
thing rightfully his. This man will
sell out only when he has the last
cent of profit to be had from his
holdings. He is to the thrifty COM
munity what the caterpillar is to the
currant bush. He can be %proftahly
spared from any community. But
there is no known legal way of rid
ding the land of such a pest. The
lazy vacant-lotter is a enough. The
persistent professional is a pesti-
lence.

THE "PARSON" AT CHURCH.
CWithout His Pipe.)

The "Parson" has been called ev-
erything from a "Greenbacker," cor
faith cure DOCTOR o an Anarchist
Tor Atheist, by people who don't
like mis- little The truth is
that the Parson is a free silver man
without a party,-at least the church
to which he belongs has no organi-
cation in Roswell, and so he visits
around to hear all the ministers with
out danger of being asked to ex-
change pulpits with any of them.
He likes them all, and congratulates
the people of Roswell upon the pos
session of a noble band of ~consecrat-
ed men, all working to the same end,
though there be variations in their
plans of ~cultivating the soil, irrigat-
ing and digging about the roots of
the tree of life to make it bring
forth fruits meet for repentance.
fl0cGulIN d uSW minister, rev JnO.
W. Smith, of Dallas, has taken charge
of the Methodist Church, South, il
this city. Our first impression of him
was reached on hearsay evidence
and was dead wrong. He is a man
intensely human, enjoying life, hay
ing a sense of humor and blood in
his veins, but he is not sensational.
dogmatic nor cocksure that he
knows everything there is to be
learned. He appeals to human ex
perience in %picturing the advantages
of living a healthy Christian life on
earth in preparation for continuing
such a life in Eternity. His iHustra-
tons do not threaten Or t~errorize, but
illuminate the pathway and encour-
age the weary traveller.
He preached Sunday morning on
the Finished Work of Christ" Lack
of space forbids extended extracts
from the sermon Not in his words,
but as we understood the meaning
of Mr.. Smiths discourse, Christ's
life and willing sacrifice were the
example set for all humanity. No
could instantaneously, or eve
in his earthly lifetime attain the per-
of Jesus-but He is the way
and the only way whereby men may
saved. The model is complete.
We may decide instantly to accept
Christ as the ideal of our lives and
up in our souls the finished pic
ture of His life and sacrifice for hui
.anity;. but it will require time and
study, and devotion, to shape our
ives and strengthen our souls to fol
tow in the footsteps of Him who is
