A GREAT CELEBRATION
Citizens of Eagle River With
Aid of Surrounding Towns
Were Patriotic.

Monday Eagle River celebrated
independence Day in the propei
style.
The anniversary of the nation $
birth was unmarried bv weather
conditions or accidents of any
nature. Ours was a sane 4th.
1t true patriotic manner the
people enjoyed a pleasant fourth,
not forgetting the significance Of
the day. Everything was con
ducive to a great celebration and
it was one to be long remembered
by those who participated.
In the forenoon exercises were
held from the band stand in the
park. The Declaration of indie
pendence, that significant docu-
ment, was read by Chas. H.
Wiegand. Fitting music by the
Eagle River band followed and
w. H. Bennett, speaker of the
day, was introduced. Mr.. Ben
nett, former Eagle River resi-
dent, reviewed to the Younger
generation the history of Eagle
Rivers early days when he with
other present day citizens were
helping to make this All habitable
place He recalled during those
days how he used to drive an OK
team in the woods, working side
by side with Jos. Toolev, Vim.
Murphy and a score Of others
who still live here.
After the exercises at the band
stand, foot races and contests
were witnessed by the crowd.
All of these amateur contests
were enjoved and later thecrowd
went to dinner feeling that one
half of the day had been spent
prohtably.
In the afternoon the main feat
was the ball game. Before this,
however, the contests for the
boys furnished varied amuse-
ment for all. Boat races after
the game concluded the after
Moons program.
Then came a magnificent dis
play of fireworks followed BY
dance in the opera house. Eagle
River had made good once more.

It's not about the Jeffries-John,
son shell game we started out to
burn up space on, but those two
little games of the national article
between the Wansau Cubs and
Eagle Rivers Regulars which
were played Sunday and Monday
afternoons on the | ocal team 5

not errorless by any means, still
they were of the sort to awaken
any fan, old-timer or new-timer
to a sudden realization that here

Sundays game started out
with decided tendency towards
borse-play by the Wausau team.
They, so it is claimed, were
willing the stump pullers should
have the first game, but would
on Monday show this tackwoods
aggregation the difference be-
tween a presentation of a game
and what 1t really was to win
one. The first move to strength
en- that assertion was the gift of
four scores to the Regulars due
to three wild throws-premedi-
tafed and made to order by the
Cublets. The fans got exceed

Regulars opened up and it didn't
take the Cubs more than a week
to tumble that things on a big
scale were doing. The stump
pullers built too large a pile for
Benz, the Cubs pitcher. and he
blew up in the 9Th inning. He
was followed by Polzin, a long
continued article on the Cubs
pitching staff, who finally con-
sented to give the game in the
ninth inning TO the Regulars.
But they hated to do it. Score
10 to 9 in favor of Eagle River.

AMERICAN FLAG IS
BURNED BY DEMOCRATS

the American flag last night at the
Aala Park meeting. A small flag was
used in decorating the Home Rule
platform, and gang of hoodlums,
yelling "Hurrah for McCandless!
made an attack on the decorations.
One of the rowdies applied his torch
to the flag and ip second tho ma
tional colors were burning. The men
appeared to be drunk and when sew.
eral OF the bystanders attempted to
interfere, they were threatened with
bodily harm.
In another part of the grounds, at
almost the same time, a big Republi
can transparency was torn from the
hands of two boys by Ave Democratic
heelers and was smashed and burned
The boys tried to protect the banner
but II was useless. Various other
acts of rowdylsm, all by Democrats
were reported. II was easy to see
that they did not fear interference
by the police.

back his conviction that Trent might
come under the wire as City and

GOOD REPUBLICAN PROSPECT.

Honolulu is enjoying quiet election day in the sense of
the voting proceeding without untoWard incident.
One of the gratifying features Of our exciting campaigns is
the fact that when comes to the final baotng the people
90 about it without disturbing their neghbors or ndgng in
violence at the polling places We very peaceful COM
muny if very excitabe one.
The forecasts Of the day before election hold good up to
the hour Of the baong. According to all the rules Of the
political game worked out by experience since annexation,
the Republican ticket should be carried into office by very
large majority.
Il all depends on the amount Of straight voting that done
by the Republicans as the city of Honolulu and the island OF
Oahu are normally Republican.
There have been petty tricks played by the Democrats in
the last twenty -four hours but these childish that only
the weak-mnded voters could be swayed, and only very
few votes influenced.
The Republicans are moving forward well organized and
confident The people are making the decision between Re-
publican progress and Democratic etrogresson that threat
ems Government by Commission.
No election held has been vital to the future OF

Cease, then, enriching a few people
in whom we have no sort of interest,
at the cost of lasting injury to our
own community. Try when at home

our own home business for time.

where You SHOULD BUY,

No word appeals more strongly to
the average person than loyalty. We
all love to be spoken of as loyal to
family, friends, country and to our
ideals. We should also include our
home city
There Is no doubt of our sincerity
In this and we would feel very much
offended were II questioned, but is this
loyalty always of the right sort; is 1t
intelligent and active or is 1t some
times a sentimental and pleasing fan
cy with which we delude ourselves?
The happiness of the people Of n
city depends largely on the prosper
ity of the community as n whole, and
this prosperity depends in part upon
the amount of money circulating
there. The more money the people
send away to the mainland for things
they can buy from their own Honolu-
lu merchants, the poorer the COM
munity will become and, conversely,
the more they spend at home, the
more the place will thrive.
Do those who patronize distant mail
order houses while making their
homes in Honolulu ever think Of the
harm done? II all the good people in
San Francisco, for instance, should
ignore the local merchants and Tor
one year buy all their supplies in
Chicago. Buffalo and New York, there
would be For Sale" signs on the city
hall, the Palace, the public library
and the Mission. The same principle
applies to all communities. f
Patronage Of home merchants Is the
life of city. Mail order houses that
offer attractive premiums with indif-
ferent goods, may draw large amounts
OF money which, II spent at home
would help to pay for schools, paving
lighting and general civic improve
ment Outside business houses do not
pay any part of Honolulu's city taxes
But, Business is Business" some
say. Yes, but business is more than
that, II is reciprocity. and 1t should be
apparent to everyone that business
dealings with those who are working
for the same local interests as our
selves will be far more productive OF
good, than trading with people who
are far away, who buy nothing from
us and whose only interest in our
community is the amount of money
they can get out of 1t.
Do you recall when times have been
hard that these outside business
houses ever extended you credit to
help you over the hard places? Will
they? Not In thousand ycnrs-its
money down, or no goods. The local
merchants are the ones to whom we
must then turn for assistance, but
how can we do SO with good grace OF
