mot AN IDLE MOMENT IN MONSTER PROGRAM
Salute at O'clock Will Be Opening Something Doing
From That Hour Until After Midngh-Parade at 8

The days of '61 will be recalled
next Thursday, when the old soldiers
of Ashland contribute to the general
rejuvination through their fife and
drum corps. There is something
about the sound of the old-time mill
tary band that stirs the hearts of
patriots more than anything in the
modern, up-to-date musical Organiza-
ton. The Grand Army boys of Ash
land have a fife and drum corps the
equal of any in the state and they
will be in evidence on independence
day, to lend their energies to the
big celebration. The G. A. r. boys
will also be in the parade with Old
Glory floating above their heads as
it did years ago Young and cid
America will be in evidence and will
join hands to make the coming cele-
bration big one.
The restroom feature of the cele-
bration, designed to make it easy or
mothers with restless children, is one
of the excellent provisions of the
committee. The Stevenson and
Camps buildings will be used for this
purpose and both will be supplied
with all necessary seats and couches
for the comfort of tired mothers A
number of ladies will be in charge
and will render every assistance pos
sible and attend to every want of
those who take advantage of the
rooms. People from out of town may
be assured of a place to rest.
The barbecue will be the biggest
thing ever offered in this section.
The best beeves to be found have
been selected and the meat will be
cooked by experts. Ample supply for
10000 people is provided and the
best of it is that it is free. Other
features are receiving careful atten-
tion.
If you haven't made your arrange
ments for decorating your home or
place of business, do so at once. You
will be the only one, if you don't.
Ashland must present a gala appear
ance, and will, according to every in
dication now. Ghe weather man has
promised clear weather this week
the democratic nomination will be
settled, and nothing will be left to
cause worry or despair. Bring the
kids out for the biggest time of their
lives. A glance at the program Civ
en- below will bear out the former
claims that there will be something
doing all day. From the first salute
at a o'clock, when the bombardment
of Fort Sumter will be recalled and
the roar of guns will reverberate
across the hills and back and forth
to the departure of the last guest
from the great ball at the Natatorium
after the midnight hour, there will
be no cessation of activities The pa
rade will start promptly at 8.

A MUSICAL TREAT.
Overland Band Rendered Selections
at Depot Friday Evening.

Visitors at the depot grounds be-
tween and o'clock last Friday
evening were treated to one of the
finest performances in the way of a
band concert ever presented in Ash
land. The Overland Band of Toledo.
OHIO, stepped from the train during
the brief stop here and rendered sew
eral masterpieces for the entertain
ment of the loiterers and passengers.
Those who were fortunate enough to
be within hearing distance of the mu-
sic pronounce it of high order.
The Overland band is one of the
most unique of it's character in the
world. All the members of the So
piece band are employed in the John
n. WHY'S factories making Overland
automobiles. The only professional
is Gustav Koehler, noted band lead
er, who was engaged to lead the
motorcar men.
For the last Is months the band
has been the means of lettering the
social conditions in the Overland fac
tory. Each morning the musicians
assemble and give a short concert.
In reward for their work, Mr.. WHY'S
is giving them vacation that, when
completed, will have taken them to
"a of the principal cities west of To
ledo. All expenses of the trip are
being paid by the motorcar manufac-
turer, as well as the salaries of the
men while on the vacation.

Salem Mayor Can't Give Orders to
Chief of Police.

Salem. Ore.-"We have no juris-
diction over the chief of police" de-
clared Mayor Louis Lachmund, when
questioned with relation to what his
attitude would be in regard to let
ter sent to him by Governor West,
directing him to order the chief of
police to enforce the law prohibiting
the sale of intoxicants to people who
are in the habit of becoming intoxi-
Gated, and suggesting that unless the
laws were enforced the governor
would take action to do so.
He alone is accountable to the

forced the law, it is sno affair Of

pie give the executive the power to
enforce the law, but they refused to
do so, and it is not up to me.
The mayor had reference to an

power over the chief of police, but

UNIT RULE DEFEATED.
PrOgressives Successful in Early
Hours of Convention.

Baltimore.-Progressives in the
democratic national convention
claimed a notable victory Wednesday
night when they carried a motion alb
rogating a rule by which some state
delegations were bound to cast their
vote as unit.
The fight for and against the unit
rule was waged particularly about
the State of Ohio, where Is district
delegates had been instructed to vote
for Wilson, but where the state con-
vention, controlled by the Harmon
forces, had invoked the unit rule
binding all Ohio delegates to the
Ohio governor.
The convention by a vote of 656
to 491 decided that no state delega-
tion should be bound by unit control
except in such cases where the state
law was mandatory on the subject
Wilson gained and Harmon lost IS
votes from the Ohio delegation as a
result of the fight.
New York's solid block of 90 votes
cast amid Kisses and groans in favor
of continuing the unit rule. Mis-
souri,, the home state of Clark, split
29 to in favor of unit rule. This
result was received by groans.
When Nebraska and Kansas voted
solidly for the abrogation of the unit
rule the Bryan and Wilson men
cheered. Pennsylvania, Wilson
state, voted So for and l / against the
rule, California was for and 81
against. while Oregon was 8 for and
/ against the rule.

reputation. The five gentlemen COM
prising the company play on strings
only. Four of them were formerly
members of the great Thomas orches-
ira. They carry with them a spec-
tally constructed reed organ, which
gives all the necessary reed and wind
effects of a large orchestra. Cos
TUNES fitting TO the setting of the

part of the makeup. This attrac-
ton alone is worth the price of a sea-
son ticket.
