THE FOURTH.
The "Safe and Sane" Celebration
OF the Day In Rising Sun.


Rising Suns safe and sane celebration
of the Glorious Fourth met with hearty
response from the citizens and the pro-
gram as arranged by the w. c. T. U.
was most pleasing one. 1t started with
parade, shortly after one o'clock, head
ed by the Rising Sun Cornet Band
Quite number of wagons, pony carts
and other vehicles were deliberately de-
corated with flags and bunting and filed
with boys and girls. These were preceded
by four youths on horseback who acted as
marshals.
One of the features of the parade was
Charles Lawson's delivery wagon, in
which was seated Charlie and his dog.
On the wagon were placards announcing
that this was the saith anniversary OF
Charles arrival in America from Norway
and he received round of applause as
he folio we'd after Uncle Sam and Miss
Columbia, who were impersonated by
Ralph Wilson and Ella Crawford Pogue,
both appropriately costumed for the parts.
After covering the route which included
nearly all the streets in town, the pro-
cession drew up at the vacant lot on the
corner of Main and Walnut streets where
platform had been erected under large
walnut tree and benches provided for the
audience.
Edwin L. Haines acted as master of
ceremonies and the following interesting
and patriotic program was rendered:

Ice cream. cake, lemonade and peanuts
were for sale on the grounds and those
in charge of the stand did rushing
business at the conclusion OF the exercises.
The ball game which started at $3.50
also drew large crowd who joyfully sat
in the sweltering sun and witnessed the
home team repeat its morning perfor-
nance at Oxford, which was to admins
tertwo defeats to that club in double
header.
In the evening many of the citizens
had fine displays of fireworks on their
lawns. Although the day was swelter-
ing one, pleasant breeze was stirring in
the evening and Young America went to
bed tired and happy, with only one acci-
dent to mar the otherwise perfect celebra
tion of the I35th anniversary of the
Nations birth.

STATE PLATFORM.


The Prohibition party of Maryland, in state
convention assembled at Baltimore, Md, June
30, 1911, declares anew it's fidelity to the
national Prohibition party, indorses the
Columbus platform and declares for the i'm
mediate prohibition of the drink traffic in the
State of Maryland.
We declare the protection of the people of
the state from the evils of the drink traffic a
matter of first political concern. The moral
political and business interests of the people
are jeopardized and regard for law is weakened
by the existence of the traffic. While the
traffic is powerful within the state, the
patriotic sentiment of our people must face
the further fact that territory exclusively
under federal control is used by the liquor
interests. through interstate liquor shipments
to defeat the constitutionally expressed will
of the majority of our citizens. The Pro-
hibitionists of Maryland protest against the
privileges given liquor dealers in the District
of Columbia to defeat the will of the people of
this great commonwealth. Against this in
justice we have long petitioned. and now
of power, the citizenship of the state. through
the medium of the ballot box.
To invest an interstate liquor jug with a
to the reserved powers in the states is distaste-
full to the common sense of mankind, and the
longer continuance of such policy can but
strengthen disrespect for a law generally. We
hold it self-evident that regard for law suffers
most when its defeat is accomplished under
the specious plea that its maintenance con-
fiicts with some other law.
The sale Of federal tax receipts to liquor out
laws in Maryland and other states, along with
the rule of the Treasury Department forbid
ding internal revenue collectors testifying
against the holders of such receipts when on
trial in state courts is abhorrent and its prac-
tice not to be defended.
We recognize no limitations upon the rights
of the citizens of Maryland to at once rid
themselves of the licensed drink traffic
through the functions of government. We
declare for its overthrow through political
party pledged to that purpose.

TIMING WAS PLoNE DAYS

ision Superintendent. +. L. Birdsel:
They were in the city from I until
II p. m They looked over the situ-
alton here very carefully, and came
to the conclusion before their departure
that they would have to start immed-
lately to make preparations for facil-
itating the handling OF the rapidly in
creasing freight traffic. By this they
meant that they would have to figure
on better warehouse facilities, more
trackage, and other improvements
which will prove a great boon to the
capital city All of the officials ex-
pressed themselves as more than pleas
ed with the outlook here, and as one
of them stated:
81 can see now. from what Mr. Tin
ling has said, that we will have to
start right now to do our figuring for
improvements"
The Northern Pacific road is vitality
interested in the capital city and will
do it's part toward making the state
capital a bigger and better metropolis,
and it is confidently expected that it
will be only few years until Mr..
Tinlng's predictions will have become
realities and Bismarck will have be-
come the "Chicago of the West"

cihc Railway was lonored by a visit
from some of the high official OF the
road who came to the capital city to
look over the prospects and the faclll-
ties Of the company for handling its
increasing trade here.
Among the visitors was Assistant
General Freight Agent A. Timing: Mr..

REGULAR PACKETS To
PLY MISSOURI AGAIN

The principal reason for the re-es-
Establishment of the service is the great
and rapid development OF the Mussel-
shell Valley of Montana. The broad
and fertile valley which extends for
miles and miles on both sides of the
Missouri has filled up with settlers,
thriving communities have arisen and
that new country is to be put into d.
rect touch now with Bismarck, the
Chicago of the West With this
splendid territory to draw from there
is scarcely question but what the new
packet service will prove emlnently
successful. The valley. is already trib1-
tarv to two great iron highways, the
Great Northern and the Milwaukee
railway systems, but the additional out
let via the Missouri river will prove
a powerful factor in the upbuildng OF
that section of the country.
One feature which must not be ov-
erlooked is that the Musselsl1ell is not
the only valley which will feed the
packet traffic. The steamboat lines
come into contact with the Great Nor
thcrn at Fort Benton, and it is also
probable that they will be touched by
this road at Fraser. Mont, in case the
road builds a branch to the river
Hence it is merely a question of time
before the regular whistle Of the cargo
laden packet will greet the ears of
the residents Of the capital city and
thus. bear the tidings of additional
prosperity for Bismarck, the slope
country and the entire western section
of the United States.

As soon as the ice goes out the Bell
ton Packet Company with headquarters
i'll this city. will inaugurate a regular
packet service up and down the Mis-
souri, River between Fort Benton,
Montana, and Bismarck. The COM
pany will continue to maintain its Of
fees in this city.
There will be seven boats and a
large number OF barges in service at
the start and if the patronage warrants
and increases in goodly proportion 9TH
or boats may be added to run Oh schcd-
ule time.
Fort Benton is situated at the head
waters of the Missouri and will be the
northern terminal point Of the packet
service. In the early days before the
advent of the railroads. there was much
ira fife for the boats, but i'll late years
It fell off. However, with the new
towns which have sprung up along the
river there is splendid opportunity for
the development of river traffic again.
and the packet service which will be
started soon will be made a permanent
in case the business will warrant It,
and enough patronage is secured from
the river towns. The principle articles
which will be transported by water Will
be merchandise, grain, lumber, wool
and other necessities of life.
There has been no regular service
on the river since 1887, so it has been
"A years since the last regular boats

est navigable highway of the Western
Hemisphere.
