Rocky Ford enterprise., 1908-07-10
ONE week
FROM TODAY
Will See the Commencement
of Our Chautauqua
BIG CROWDS
WILL BE HERE
Is the Assurance We Have Received
from Nelghboring Towns II
the Weather Is Fine.

from Neighboring Towns II
the Weather Is Fine.
With every passing day the prospects
grow steadily brighter that the coming
Chautauqua will be successful beyond the
most sanguine expectations of its pro-
motsrs. During the past week COM
mittee from the Board of Trade has Wis
tied the neighbor;ng towns. and at every
stop they received assurances that many
would attend. Many inquiries from out
side points are also being received. SO that
there is an absolute certainty that there
will be a much larger out-of-town at
tendance than was at first expected.
The novel plan Of having a ten days
outing upon the grounds. advanced by the
Enterprise a couple of weeks ago, is be-
ing favored by the people. and every tent
owned in town will be pitched in the
grove and contain a party Of pienieers
who will be almos. within sight of their
own homes during the Chautauqua.
The complete program. exclusive OF
special features. may be found on another
page, and our readers will surely admit
that some Of the numbers are alone worth
the price Of a seasons ticket More ex-
landed mention of few OF the enter
tainers is here given:
Sen. Robert M. Lafollette
was twice elected Governor OF WIS,
consin and against, the eomDineu
strength of the railroad and many
other similar elements. He forced
through one OF the first direct pri-
J mary laws in America. He brought
the railroads to time on nearly every
score. In the Senate he has fought
a good fight With odds against him
for the Senate of this country hasn't
vet awakened and the people are
quite a way in the lead on reform
matters. Senator LaFollcttc Will
speak for three hours and il you are
there Won won't get tired either ior
he holds his audiences cntranced by
his stunning truths. Perhaps he Will
read the celebrated roll call showing
how senators vote on some impoT-
tant questions.
Congressman DeArmond OF Missouri
is known as the assistant leader OF
the minority in the House: just
what this means is this. Ii the lead
placed or were unable TO do his
work for a time DeArmond would
take his place and lead the Demo
Gratis in Congress. II really involves
much more than this would indicate
for it takes ability As IN orator,
ability as a leader and g. an organ
izcr to reach such q rr-ut $40 ttdt
the man who stands in ;'l- position
is one whose influence l- large, al
most national in scope. Dc.NTm,7na
Is a strong speaker, SERIOUS, deep
but clear and right to his text all
the time The Saturday Evening
Post says he's frappc, but perhaps i
little ice won't hurt us in this Chat
tauqua when it's served as nicely as
it is in DeArmond.
c. B. Blake.
There is a mad rush in several
cities looking to park and other ciiE
Z improvements. The time is coming
'SShen the beauty oi a city will have
Shch to do with its prosperity.
Unfortunately much improvement IS
done along unscicntiic lines and
must be done over again al future,
time. To meet the great nccd
here as well as to inspire our citi-
zcns to the best ideals in civic i'm
prOvcmcnt. we have secured MI
Blake OF Chicago at large expense
to lecture to US and give absolutcl lH
without charge except that OF The
season ticket. advice regarding the
Improvement OF our city which
would cost us large sum to secure
otherwise. Il is therefore important
that we prepare for Mr.. Blake SO
that while here we may make the
most of his experience and ability.
