MR.. PIERCE WRITES OPINION
ABOUT SEATTLE, WASHINGTON

Seattle, washington, sept. ~ 70.
Guy U. Hardy ESD. Canon City, Colo.
Dear Friend Hardy:--I have Just
been reminded by Mrs. Pierce that l
had better send you check for $1.25
(Which find enclosed), to renew sub
scription to Weekly Record one year.
We are so accustomed to getting that
weekly letter. with all the Canon City
news therein, that we would be lone
some without it.
Have been here about. year now
and like Seattle first rate: climate
not so good as Canon, but much bet
ter than l had expected. The sum-
mer has been splendid, only a little
too dry, so people go right along
doing business; even If it does rain.
1t is wonderful the amount of build
ing and street improvements that's
going on all the time. 1t is also
very active at the Exposition grounds
(Which is really part of the Univer-
sity grounds), and many of the build
ings now being constructed for ex-
position purposes are very expensive,
and are to permanently remain on
the grounds after the fair is over and
will belong to the state OF Washing
ton.
Shall expect to see you and many
other Canon friends out here next
year. I remain yours very truly,
r. C. PIERCE.

Dancing went on all the time, couples
coming and going and round dancing
being succeeded by quadrilles. Some
times 1.-THE and sinuous jig-dancer
got space cleared for himself to dis
port in, and great was the enthusiasm
when some girl would accept chal-
lenge and come out on the boards to
do turn with the jig-dancer. Such ad-
vancing and swaying and retreating;
such apparent Indifference and then
unexampled vigor; such hammering
of the boards and turning and twist
ing, until at the end the crowd roared
its approval and the dancers disap-
peared among the spectators.
Political society at the picnics, DEM
ocratic as it seemed at first blush, had
its lines of demarcation, which were
quite noticeably drawn. The wife and
daughters of the "big boss" were on
hand, together with the women-folks
of the various office-holders, but they
| did not mingle with the average lady
picnickers They sat by themselves
in something of exclusive grandeur,
and were pointed out by the more
ordinary of the merry-makers to their
companions.
Sometimes a possible presidential
| candidate graced the occasion by his
presence and consented to hand out a
| sample of silver-tongued oratory. But
1 never heard one yet who could draw
away any of the attendance at the
baseball game or the fat women's race.
There's limit, even to oratory.
Great was the CONSERVATION when,
| as sometimes happened, the flood.
| gates of heaven opened and drowned
the picnic grounds. The last political
| picnic I attended commenced on a
very threatening day, and at last the
clouds seemed to make up their minds
to sweep the grounds. Our party had
taken alarm, with number of others,
and had gone down the track to where
the first train to town was stationed.
The crowd got there and jammed the
train instantly. Just opposite the pic
mic ground, and half mile from us,
was a wide platform, uncovered, on
which stood hundreds who were wait
ing for this train. Let her go, Sam, -
said the conductor; mo stop till we
| get to Chicago" Away we went, and
as we passed the picnic grounds hun
dreds more came down through the
drenching showers in white dresses
that stuck to their limbs and straw
hats that were being soaked to ruin.
But the train went past regardless of
their yells, and as it went by the car
windows were raised and the chorus
of the latest song was waited into
their ears: ,,J4
