GREAT DAY IN
WAL[A WALlA
Saturdays Celebration Vas
a Huge Success
COUNTLESS VISITORS HERE.
WAS LARGEST CROWD WALLA
WALLA EVER ENTERTAINED
AND EVERYBODY WENT.
HOME HAPPY.
COUNTLESS VISITORS HERE

The small boy, and his little sister
and his brother and his mamma and
his papa, celebrated the Fourth in
Walla Walla. While the celebration was
on the small boy said, Gee, it's great
And after it was over and the small
boy was finally tucked into his little
bed he turned over 10 dream of the
greatest day in his experience. And his
sister and his brother and his mamma
and his papa agreed with him.
Old timers said it was the greatest
celebration Walla Walla ever had.
Measured by enthusiasm or by crowds
or by fireworks or by attractions or
by general good feeling, the celebra-
ton left nothing to be desired.
No Hard Time Here.
There was nothing to indicate hard
times in Saturdays celebration in Wal
la Walla. 1t is Conservatory estimated
that over 100000 was spent by Wal
la Wallans and visitors in Walla Wal
la during the celebration. The money
was spent easily, and every business
man who dealt in goods pertinent to
the celebration reports sales far eX-
ceeding his expectations. The number
Of visitors greatly exceeded all advance
estimates. Not counting the thousands
who came in over the interurban line
or by their own private rigs and who
left Saturday evening, enough outsid-
ers were in the city Saturday night to
fill every available room and leave a
couple of hundred men to walk the
streets in the cold, grey dawn of Sun
day morning.
No accurate estimate of the num-
Der of visitors in town is available,
and guesses range all the way from
10000 to 10000. That the crowds were
simply enormous is generally admitted
Secretary r. H. Johnson, of the fair
association, says that six thousand
people were on the fair grounds during
the races Saturday afternoon. In ad-
dition to this several thousand people
were on the Whitman campus watch
ing the athletic events and still the
down town sidewalks were solid masses
Of humanity. Probably between 10000
and 10000 people were around the O.
r. & N station watching the display
of fireworks during the evening, and
even the absence of this vast crowd
was scarcely noticed uptown. Main
street was literally filled with human
ity and the cafes and ice cream parlOrs
were packed with the hungry and the
thirsty, while all over the city family
groups were engaging in private dis
plays of red fire and sky-rockets.
A Big Day.
1t vas a big day for everybody.
Bands were playing almost constantly
and in the language of the advertise
mcnts there was always something
doing"
The parades were the big features Of
he celebration, and both the historic
and civic pageant in the morning and
the roaring farce of the Squeedunks in
the afternoon brought forth much APP
plause The basketball games, the
athletic events on Whitman campus
and the races at the fair grounds, to
say nothing of the almost countless
smaller attractions, proved highly
popular with the dnatured throng
of people and made the celebration one
long to be remembered.

GAVE THE GAME

LOCAL TEAM LOST LAST GAME

Ten innings were necessary to see

Combinations of hits and errors did
the work and the game, while at times
slow, occasionally took an interest

for the visitors, also played good slab
game, but the winning of the game
was not altogether due to his work as
the local lads biffed him for Is bingles.

Home HappinesS.

Probably nineteen-twen-
tieths of the happiness you
will have, you will get at
home. The independence
that comes to a man when his
work is over and he feels that
he has run out of the storm
into the quiet harbor Of home,
where he can rest in peace
with his family, is something
real. It does not make much
difference whether you own
your house or have one little
room in that house, yon can
make that little room a home
to you. You can people it
with such moods, you can turn
to it with such sweet fancies,
that it will be fairly luminous
with their presence, and will
be to you the very perfection
ola home: Against this home
none of you should ever trans
gress.

BRYAN's POLICIES DESTRUCTIVE
Mr.. Taft Compares Republican and
Democratic Platforms.
(From Mr.. Taft's Speech Of Accep-

Is 49,
Democratic Platforms.
(From Mr.. Taft's Speech of Accep-
tance.)
The chief difference between the Re
publican and the Democratic platforms
is the difference which has heretofore
been seen between the policies of Mr..
Roosevelt and those which have been
advocated by the Democratic candidate,
Mr.. Bryan. Mr.. Roosevelt's policies
have been progressive and regulative;
Mr. Bryan's destructive. Mr.. Roose-
welt has favored regulation of the bust
ness in which evils have grown up so
as to stamp out the evils and permit
the business to continue. The tendency
of Mr.. Bryan's proposals has generally
been destructive of the business with re-
spect to which he is demanding reform.
Mr.. Roosevelt would compel the trusts
to conduct their business in a lawful
manner and secure the benefits of their
operation and the maintenance of the
prosperity of the country of which they
are an important part; while Mr..
BRYAN would extirpate and destroy the
entire business in order to stamp out
the evils which they have practiced.

THE SWEETEST LIVES

The sweetest lives are those to duty wed,
Whose deeds, both great and small,
Are close knit strands Of an unbroken
thread
Where love ennobles all.
The world may sound no trumpets, ring
no BELLS
The book of life the shining record tells.
Thy love shall chant its own beatitudes
After it's own life workings. A child's
kiss
Set on thy singing lips shall make thee
glad.
A poor man served by thee shall make
thee rich.
A sick man helped by thee shall make
thee strong.
Thou shalt be served myself by every
sense
OF service which thou renderest.
