The Colfax gazette. [volume] (Colfax, Wash.) 1893-1932, 1908-06-26

We will have the usual literary exer-
cises. Francis A. Garrecht of WaIa
Walla will deliver the Grafton. grand
chorus Of so voices will lend inspiratiC
to this part of the proceeding, and the
Colfax Band will furnish martial music
throughout the day.
From all accounts a large throng will
be present. Our celebration will in no
way interfere with celebrations taking
place in other parts OF the county. The
country il big enough and we have peo
pie enough to be able to hold many pa
triOtic reunions. And the more held and
the greater the lessons OF patriotism
instilled in the minds Of all the better it
will be for ell Hence we repeat, there is
room for all and those who do not come
to COlfax should be sure to attend the
festivities in some OF the adjoining
towns, where fun and feasting and re-
unions and lessons in patriotism may be
found. But Colfax is prepared to receive
all visitors with open arms. The latch
string hangs on the outside.
Let US all, in all parts OF the land,
celebrate the Forthcoming Fourth Of July
with genuine John Adams enthusiasm
by the firing OF cannon, by laying aside
all secular pursuits and entering into the
true spirit of the occasion.

FOURTH Of JULY
CELEBRATE n
Biggest Time Promised in His
tory of COIfax.
Features of the Pioneer Period Is
Promised Literary Exercises,
Games, Sports, Fireworks.

The Fourth Of July celebration in Col
fax this year promises to be the biggest
affair Of the kind ever witnessed in the
city. 1t will be unique in more ways
than one. Aside from the patriotic fea
lures of the occasion it will assume the
colorings of a pioneers celebration,
some Of the events showing the pioneers
az they moved and had their beirg dur
ing the period of the ArgOnauts, quite in
contrast with the present day OF doing
things. This will serve as an object les
son and be Of great interest. Forty Of
the oldest pioneers Of the county will ap-
pear in the procession in decorated auto
mobiles, enjoying all the luxury Of mod
ern mode Of travel, followed by 40 OF the
younger citizens representing the early
modes OF conveyance, la Ezra Meeker
crossing the continent with his OK team.
There are many in Whitman county who
crossed the continent when it took four
five and six months to make the trip
from the Missouri river to the Pacific
coast, enduring hardships and privatiOns
little understood by this generation, and
some of these Argonauts in line should
be an inspiration, il it does transpire on
the mimic stage. We enjoy so many
blessings and comforts compared to the
real pioneer period that in many respects
we are spoiled and inclined to be pessi-
mistc, when we should be thankful and
optimistic.
In addition there will be big parade
of citizens in carriages, civic societies,
members of the Grand Army of the Re
public, the fire department, and last,
though not least, the plug ugles will be
out for fun and frolic-aIl affording
spectacle the equal of which may not be
seen in the Palouse again for a long
time. There will also be athletic con
tests, games, sports and races, to con
clude with a big display Of fireworks at
night.

An immense canvas will be stretched
to protect the people from the sun where
the shade trees do not reach. This has
been made possible through the courtesy
Of Mr.. MOreand Of the new town Of NAL

The fireworks will be well up on Il g
hill on the east side, probably in the
