BESIDES CHERRY FAIR

There will be balloon ascensions
high divers, high wire performers,
merry-go-rounds; and the list Of at.
fractions Is not yet complete.
Salem will out-do herself this
year In the way of parades. The

a whole rose carnival In itself.
Manager r. X. Page, of the Portland
Railway, Light & Power company.
has donated car. which will be
brilliantly illuminated and decorated,
and which will be run through the
streets In the evening. This feature
will be in keeping with the other IL
Illuminated features, one of which Is
the 3000 feet of electric streamers
which arrived Saturday and with
which the principal thoroughfares
will be strung.
The comic parade as the commit
tee have arranged It, will be some
thing to be remembered long after
the festivities are over. Never be-
fore has the fun-creating program
been so well attended to. A partial
list OF the comic attractions already
secured follows:
Molly Mcclure, recent Lewis and
Clark fair attraction, who will APP
pear with bunch of trained animals.

AN MPERIALIsT AND A REPUBLI-
CAN.

Alfred Holman, editor OF the Ar
gonaut. is fine gentleman but a
very poor Judge OF things polite. In
fact we more than suspicion he Is
more in sympathy with Tory senti-
ment than Republican. Take the
following excerpt from his last
weeks article on the oregon cleo
'tion, for Instance;
Through acceptance OF the direct
primary system with it's trimming
In the form OF pledging the cand.'
dates, Oregon presents the spectacle
of a political and moral anomaly.
Under the provisions of the direct
primary the senatorial candidates
who get the largest number of votes
becomes the candidate OF his party
Candidates for the legislature had
previously been pledged under tho
direct primary law TO vote for the
candidate who got the most votes;
therefore a legislature strongly Re-
publican. representing Republican
constituency and Republican princi-
pies. stands under a foolish but none
the less morally binding promise to
send TO the senate man represent
ing Democratic principles. There Is
foreshadowed IN ths tone Of the Or
egon press and of certain political
leaders, disposition to seek a pre-
text for abrogating the pledge and
for giving the Republican votes In
the legislature to a Republican can
didate. This. we think, would be
bad faith and bad politics. Having

Although the Cherry Fair this
year will far surpass the gigantic
successes of 1905 and 1907, both of
which were pronounced by hortlcul-
turalists' of national reputation as
the greatest events OF their kind
ever seen anywhere, those in charge
OF the fair this year do not purpose
stopping at a cherry display, how
ever magnificent. The celebration
which begins on the 9th OF July will,
In addition include one of the most
extensive street carnivals ever seen
In the state.
The committee In charge OF at
fractions have secured the country
for high class features of every de-
scription. and they have succeeded In
getting together an aggregation of
side shows, clrcuses and sensational
open air artists, the like of which
Salem has never beheld. Every
thing worth having in the line of
attractions that is now holding
forth at the big carnival at Dallas
will be seen here on the opening day.
In addition to this attractions will
be brought in from Portland and
other places.
One OF the costly features of the
fair will be Dare Devil Dick in his
sensational and hair-raislng slide for
life, Dick is known throughout the
country as one of the most daring of
aerial performers living. He Will
slide from the tower of the Court
House each day OF the fair and the
"blood curdling" exhibition will be
free to all.
The society circus, brand new
feature, and different from any
thing else in this line, will be seen
in this section for the first time.
The circus will hold forth in a tent
with a seating capacity of more
than 1000. This will be the center
of the tented attractions. Besides
this Ave or six side shows, all OF the
highest order, have been secured for
the occasion.

MENTS OF A MAN. WHO HAS

TACOMA. SEATTLE AND ELSE

Tacoma, Wash, June 29.-Recent-
ly there came TO Tacoma a man of
striking appearance, who at once at
tracted attention as an individual
out of the ordinary. He is a rather
short but well built man with origin
al red side whiskers, bright blue eyes
and firm though pleasing mouth
that indicates strength of character
combined with a sunny disposition.
He registered at the Tacoma hotel as
James Austin Larson, Teleconi ex-
pert. and announced in the daily
newspapers that he was in Tacoma
for the purpose of relieving the Ills
of humanity.
Unostentatious as is this man,
his fame had preceded him and
crowds flocked to the Tacoma hotel
TO investigate. Mr.. . Larson per-
formed many cures there that
seemed like miracles. One woman,

he caused after a few treatments to

Many other similar feats brought

calls 1t.

next ten days and. it is possible. may

sssrupLrcANIsM vs.. PRINCIPLE.

A fundamental principle of the
Republican party upon which 1t was
founded by A. Lincoln, was that the
will of the majority should be the
supreme law OF the land AND THE
ONLY SAFE GUIDE OF THE
PARTY.
Those who seek to overthrow the
expressed will of the majority are
hence not Republicans, but imper-
iallsts, and their duty Is to get rid
of their imperiaistlc nonsense, or
cease to call themselves Republl-
cans
