INANNOUNCED DISPLAY TOOK
PLACE MONDAY FORENOON
AN INTERESTING PARADE
President Gilkey Makes Talk to the
Enthusiastic Multitude and Is
Cheered to the Echo.

The browning event of the great
Fourth OF July celebration took place
on Monday forenoon, though it was
not on the program. 1t was the turn
ing of the water into the 2OO-foot
ditch and allowing it to flow down
through the main street to the sur
prise Of nearly everybody in the city.
At about II o'clock a number OF
teams were seen far up Sixth street.
These teams were in line as If they
Intended to come down the street.
Men were working clearing our gut
ters and a few minutes later the
procession started. BY this time the
commotion on North Sixth street was
observed by nearly everybody; then
the Central Point band went up and
met the teams and a procession was
formed headed by the irrigation Of
ficials In an automobile. They moved
forward deliberately and it was soon
seen that the water from ditch was
keeping pace with this possession
which was made up first with a long
geered heavy wagon bearing a bill
board "a feet long and feet wide,
upon which was painted in large
letters: "Irrigation, under construc-
tion. covering $4,000 acres of choice
fruit and alfalfa lands" On the
board was a picture of an alfalfa
field through which an irrigating
ditch ran. Next to the alfalfa field
was an orchard showing large trees;
still farther to the left was a box
from which was rolling red Spitzen-
bergs, the whole making a picture
worthy the artist who conceived it..
The second wagon contained plows
and v scrapers. Following these was
that ditch builder the Road King
grader drawn by four horses abreast,
and another four-horse team fol-
lowed these drawing the Austin
grader. Still behind these were two
wagons loaded with dump scrapers,
pick axes and mattocks, block tackles
and chains. Next was a load of 30
inch steel irrigation pipe and behind
all was another wagon loaded with
22-inch steel pipe. This composed
the display
The procession moved down and
across the railroad track, the water
following closely and most of the
time abreast Of the band. The peo-
pie on either side cheered loudly and
at times almost drowned the music.
They proceeded south as far as II
street, turned west to Fifth and
north on Fifth to Front street, then
II Sixth and back to the north side
Of. the track, where the procession

Only Two Arrests.

II really seems wonderful that
during all the festivities OF the three
days celebration there were only
two arrests. One of these was for
exploding giant crackers after the
man had been warned by the chief
OF police in person not TO do II. and
the other was for drunkenness This
brings up the old debate, was II be-
cause the town was dry or because
the blind pigs we're active?

the irrigation company formed a very
interesting parade of ditch digging
machinery, car loads of large steel
pipe, scrapers, and above all, sent a
stream of water from the Rogue
river coursing down the main busi-
ness street of the city. This fea-
ture of the celebration was we'll
worth the inconvenience of the
showers.
The daylight fireworks were an
innovation and afforded much
amusement, and the evening display
was one of the best ever presented
in this section.
Business was reported good by all
merchants, everyone was happy and
jolly. and conceded that they had
never had such good all round
time. The Commercial Club COM
mittees, as well as the committees
of the Ladies' Auxiliary, were all
more than pleased with the outcome
and result of their labors, which had
been unceasing for two weeks. They
certainly were rewarded and, aside
from the congratulations on the part
of the visitors, the net cash balance
on hand will materially help towards
the furnishing of the elegant Com
mercial Club and Auxiliary quar-
ters. A total of upwards to $500
was realized from the big event.
