A LAUGABLE PARADE
ON STREETS TODAY.
One of the Most Unique Imaginable
Prize Winners.

The great parade of horses with all
kins of harness, attached to Joe
Moon buggies, for which prizes were
offered by Fred Mantey for the poor
est set of harness and for the finest
looking horse pulling a Joe Moon bug
gy, was the feature of the town this
morning.
The parade was headed by a drum
corps in wagon and there was
enough laughs in that parade to do a
man a month. Every sort of harness
had been improvised for the occasion.
in fact some harness was not harness
at all. but made up of ropes and other
pieces of goods that would hold to-
gether.
The successful winner of the har-
ness was @. f. Strasser. whose har-
ness was judged on its merits. It was
really a harness that might be used
for work every day by poor man.
The winner of the prize for the best
looking horse was II h. Adams and
his prize was a lap robe. To-.
The Judges for this most unique
parade and contest were Il. o. Stacy.

In spite of the night of wind, rain,
lightning and thunder and the nat
ural predictions that today would be
a frightful day as far as weather was
concerned, the morning dawned with
promise of a typical Grand valley
day, and after an hour or two OF
rain tiurries and cloud scurries the
horizon cleared of and Old Sol came
out in all his splendor to shine upon
the Mesa County fair. The rain had
done good work in settling the dust
and. after all, the day proved ideal.
BY early morning people from the
country began to reach the city. and
all roads were leading to the fair
city. The night trains brought big
additions to the already large visit
ing delegations from OUTSIDE points.
This is Palisade day at the fair.
and that little city up the valley prac-
tically quit business for the time be-
ing while her citizens found their
way to Grand Junction. Nearly 200

hundred upper valley people drove
overland.
The Palisade band headed the
train delegation and is THE band at
the fair today. Tonight 1t will give
a concert on Main street.
By II o'clock this morning there
were at least 1000 out-of-town peo-
pie here.
The fair grounds began to fill up
early and all morning hacks and
wagons carried people to the fair
grounds. Over 1000 people were on
the grounds during the forenoon.
Between II and l O'Clock the great
est armies of visitors began to move

ers and the quarter stretch were
crowded with surging thrOngs of con-
genial humanity and the big exhibit
