Crowds Visit Depot to
See Candidate.
RED SPECIAL WAS LATE
Speaking at Opera House Listened
to Attontivcly by Our Citizens
In General.

The Red Special which was to ar.
rive at 4 80 Sunday afternoon, failed
to put In an appearance until after
2. When 1t did come in consider.
BILE crowd was awaiting it. Every
one wanted to see Debs. the socialist
candidate for the presidency, but
everyone was disappointed for Debs
didn't appear when the train stopped.
Members Of the party stated that he
had made more than dozen speeches
during the day and that he was
resting to prepare for his speech at
the Opera House later In the evening.
The 10 piece socialist volunteer band
led the way to the Opera House and
played in front Of that building while
the people poured in to get seats. and
while the people poured In they were
entertained by several fellows from
the train who were selling photos Of
Debs. campaign buttons, campaign
literature. and campaign songs; then
the band came In and after tune or
30. X. q. Mckee Of San Diego. who
is making the Pacific Tour with the
Red Special was introduced by the
chairman. Marcus Robbins, and he
talked for three-quarters of an hour
on socialism. Mr.. Mckee was
good talker and aroused some en-.
thusiasm. but 1t was plain to be seen
that the people were there to see
Debs.
After Mckee had concluded his talk
and collection bad been taken for
the cause of socialism and TO help
defray the expense of the Red Special.
the committee Of the Chamber Of
Commerce led by Judge Jewell
brought In Mr.. Debs. and he was in
troduced to the audience. He was
not In very good voice and explained
that he had been having rather a
strenuous time Of il for many days
and was beginning to get tired. A
few minutes, however, soon warmed
him to his subject and he made good
socialist talk.
Those VINO had never seen Dsbs
we're surprised in his appearance.
He is a giant in stature aud his
method of dress aoentuates his great
height. His dress also differed from
the usual campaign speaker as he
wore an old serge suit, and blue shirt,
though he did have white collar.
HIS speech was about the same as
he has beeu making from the begin.
ming of his tour, starting with the
origin Of socialism, referring 10 tho
republican. democratic, prohibition
and other parties, and telling what
the socialist party expects to do when
1t comes into power.
At late hour the speaking ended
and Debs and his party returned TO
the train and ut 3 a. m. departed for
Roseburg and other towns up that
way.
The Red Special, is not as was sup
posed by many, painted red, as the
railroad company would not allow
their cars to be painted, but liberal
supply Of red cloth gives color enough
to enable anyone to identify the
train. The socialists say the special
is costing them 5000 The trip is
supposed to cover 10000 miles and
make 800 scheduled stops besides a
great many more that will be sand
wiched in as opportunity offers. The
socialists also claim that the trip
, made by Debs will be the longest ever
, made by candidate for Office.

pleasure or an advantage for hOrticul-
tural or agricultural productions. Lake
Weir is a body of water four to five
miles wide and seven miles long. Its
water is as pure and clear as an Adj
rOndack spring, with pure white sand
beaches, and surrounding are some
of the finest orange groves in the
state, covering its high banks, its lev
81 plains and fertile valleys. Lake
Weir Park is becoming one of the re-

c. J. Smith also owns some fine

Gambler

While the Packer man wrote up
Gambler in part last week, Gambler
deserves writing up every week.
There is not a more progressive sec.
ton in old Marion county than Can
der, and while peaches of the early
variety are of special interest as a
leading crop, yet some of the finest or

here. Among the growers are J. Y.
Mckinney, an old and appreciative
Packer reader, who has % acres OF

grows watermelons during the sea

c. Kline has II acres of a model or

Kline's method of culture, and the

and the most evenly distributed of any
grove in this vicinity. Mr.. Kline is,
OF course, a German, and as a result
a thorough horticulturist.
