PASSING OF THE CAMPAIGN
BUTTON.

New York, Aug. observation-disclosures
of the familiar little campaign but
tons, of which the great bulk of the
worlds supply are turned out in fac
tories in New York and New Jersey,
are not overioyed by the outlook for
their business this year. The vogue
for the little celluloid lapel adorn-
ments bearing likenesses of the pres
idential candidates appears TO have
had its day. Manufacturers who have
stocked up with millions of the but
tons are likely to have a large part OF
the goods left on their hands. The
slump in the demand appears to apply
to both of the two great par
ties. The only reasonable explana-
ton appears to be that the public has
grown tired of the button and has
taken up the campaign watch-fob, the
scarf-pin, and other emblems that are
more novel and attractive than the
hutton.

FRONTIER DAY CELEBRATION.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Aug. 2O-Special
trains from Denver and many other
POINTS brought large crowds of WISH
tors to Cheyenne today for the open
ing of the annual Frontier Day cele-
bration. The celebration, which was
inaugurated some years ago as a pure
ly local festivity, has grown in popu-
larity and magnitude until it has be-
come one of the foremost yearly earn
ivals to be given west of the Missis-
sippi.
The affair this year will run three
days and Judging from the number Of
visitors already on hand and the elab'
crate program of entertainment pre-.
pared it will be a most notable cele-
bration. Fully 5000 people are guests
of the city already and every arriving
train is crowded to its utmost capac-
ity. The streets are lined with booths.
and street fakirs and peddlers are cry
ing their wares from every corner.
Foremost on the carnival program
are the worlds championship riding
and roping contests. These contests
originally were participated in only
by cowboys from various parts of WY
oming, but this year the entrants in.
clude expert lariat throwers from
Colorado. Oklahoma, Texas and other
States and even far-off Hawaii has
sent two contestants to the tourna-
ment. The cowboys in their pictur
esque garb and the Indians in their
red and yellow blankets are attracting
much attention from the visitors.
The races this year are to be run
for the first time over the magnificent
new track at Frontier park. The park
has been greatly improved since last
year by the construction of a new
track, steel and concrete grandstand
with a seating capacity of $500, and
the enlargement of the stabling ac-
commodations. Many fast horses
have been secured for the meeting
and it is expected that some record
time will be made. The prizes offered
this year exceed $4,000.

Three of the four second-class Amer
lean cities named Springfield have had
race riots. In the Ohio town one ne
gro was lynched in 1904 and two in
1906, there being great excitement in
both cases. In the latter year three
negroes were lynched at one time and
their bodies burned in Springfield,
Mo. Springfield, Mass, is the only
notable town of the name that has not
had a race riot.

That the Springfield riots will have
an important influence on the cleo
ton in several doubtful States is to
be expected. 1t is not improbable that
the negroes as a race will take the
advice of Bishop Walters of the A. NJ.
E. church, and other negro bishops
and preachers, to place themselves
under the protection of the Southern
whites as the surest means of secur-
ing safety.
