THE FOURTH

Lamar will celebrate the Fourth in
the most approved style this year.
Ample money has been raised by the
committee for this purpose, and there
will be no half way doin's when it
comes to having a big time.
There will be grand parade in
the morning to the beautiful fair
grounds. which will furnish plenty
of shade for all of the big crowd that
promises to be present. The program
includes speeches by some of the
most eloquent speakers of the state,
and possibly an orator of national
note as well.
There will be a barbecue dinner at
noon, and the fact that this part of
the program is in charge of Frank
Means is sufficient guarantee that it
will be of the finest. His reputation
in this line is not excelled in the
valley.
The sports include horse races, foot
races, wild west exhibitions of va
rious kinds, and a large variety of
novelty races. There will be plen-
ty of amusements of all kinds
and every one will be shown a good
time.
In the evening there will be the
biggest display of fireworks ever ex-
hibited in this section of the valley.
The committee has made a special
effort in this line and will give the
people all they want in the line OF
illumination.
Everybody is invited to come to
the metropolis Of the valley on the
Fourth and enjoy real old fashioned
patriotic celebration of the great
day.

state convention at Des Moines fixed
things up just right, while another
contends that it made q deplorable
botch of the whole matter before it.
OF course these are unthinking extrem-
lists who ov9reStimate the Importance
of their views-a rut, by the way, into
which everybody tumbles now and
then. For my part, think the con-
vention could have done some better
and very easily worse. | believe that
the men to whom this convention gave
position and power are representative
men who realize their responsibility,
and in whose hands the interests of the
people are safe The fact that some,
in an innocent way, not conducive to
party victory were, in the heat of an
indiscreet impulse, given undue pro-
minence gives us no reason to contin-
ues disgruntled. Such disagreeable
phases are inevitable. Let us not be
an Achilles and permit the sulks to
drive us from the ranks. Let us take
lesson from the oyster and convert
our disappointments into pearls.
