the occasion which gave birth to
the day. Thiscannot be too strong.
ly impressed upon the youth Of
the land today. The Fourth Of
July is an occasion on which an en-
deavor should be made to educate
the rising generation along the
lines that called it forth. The
struggles that our forefathers went
through to gain their independence
belong to the dim evanescent past,
but the spirit that ilnpelled them
is the spirit that should now i'm
pei our boys and girls to fight for
a higher standard Of civic morality,
and all these points the Judge apt
ly brought out in his address.
After the luncheon hour every
body with one accord, hastened to
the fairground where the ball
game and races were held. The
4hucking was all good, and the com
mittee is under lasting obligation
to the Twodot horsemen for their
participation in that feature Of the
day.
By and large, the Harlowton
celebration was one Of the best, if
not the best, that was given in
this neck o. the vest. The com,
snittee ia charge certainly spared
no time nor means to makesit so,
and their efforts were amply re-
warded. Everybody whom we
heard speak expressed their entire
satisfaction with the days pleas:
ure. The hotels we're all crowded
to the limit but we heard of no
one going hungry. The rest rooms
were we'll patronized by the ladies
and children and proved a veritable
boon to many weary mothers.
Prices on all public service were
not boosted and no dissatisfaction
was heard on that score.
At a very early hour in the day
the entire stock Of flags and bunt-
ing was exhausted and several
places of business that had delayed
their purchases were unable to get
decorations for their stores. How
ever, there was a liberal supply o1
decorations and the gala appear
ance of the town was very striking
1t was not necessary to tell strang
ers that we were celebrating the
Fourth. All business houses clos
ed at ten o'clock and remained
closed until late in tho evening
when they opened for short time
to allow the rural visitors to dt
what trading they might want
The opening was duly appreciated
by many farmers who find little

L0WTON DOES
HERSELF PROUD
The Largest Crowd Ever Assembled in
the CitY---No Arrests Made---A
Wonderful Game Of Ball

just one week ago today Harlow
ton was dressed up in boiled
shirt and standing collar to greet
the guests who assembled here ON
that day to celebrate the Fourth.
To say that she did herself proud
is no exaggeration Of the truth.
Never before in the history Of the
city was such a crowd entertained
They came from far and near. Tt
was surprising how the crowd grew
as the morning Waned, and at 10
O'Clock, as per the advertised hour,
the parade moved, and talk about
parades, ours was some parade
There were floats until Main street
would not hold them. And tasty
ones. too. And funny ones. We
expect the Sells-Floto people will
be after our Kelly.
We would like, very much, to
give a detailed description Of all
the various business floats but We
would have to have much larger
paper than we have TO accommo
date the article. But, suffice it to
say that they were all good and
original, and many city several
times our size did not have better.
And as for good manners. We
defy any city in the world to pro
duce a homogeneous crowd that be
hayed itself with more proHriesyy
than the assemblage present on
that occasion. There was not an
arrest made during the day. One
Of the officers said that one or two
of the celebrants effervesced a lit
tie, but, considering the occasion,
leniency was extended them. Now,
perhaps, the effete east will take
it's hat off to the wild and woolly
west. So far, we have not heard
of solitary accident to mar the
pleasure of the day except the boy
that was hurt in the race, by rea-
son Of his saddle slipping. While
there had been no restrictions
placed on the firing Of firecrackers,
there was very little noise Of that
description, and nerves we're all in
tact when the day was ended.
The saddest spectacle Of the day
was the very poor showing made
by the Bigtimber baseball team.
OF course, they were badly handi,
capped from the beginning by ring
ing in Billings experts and perhaps
would have made better showing
if they had stuck to their home
guards. But then they we're up
against the real thing when they
tackled the Harlowton bunch and
needed a Mattheson to beat US
Perhaps, boys, you will now recog
nize our ability, and while we love
you and think you are fine bunch
socially and have the kindliest
feeling in the world for you, W.
must confess. even if you wont tha1
you can't play baseball.
The exercises in the opera house
were most entertaining. The bant
boys showed great proficiency un
der the able leadership Of A. J
Dreyer in the rendition of thei
oyertures. The thanks of the com
mittee are due and hereby extend
ed, to the young ladies and gentle
men who so kindly assisted in th
singing. After the introduction
remarks by Rev.I .IReaddy, Judg
Cheadle, in his usual happy mar
ner, addressed the assemblage fo
half an hour, with both instructiy
j and entertaining remarks. Th
judge always has something of il
terest to say to his audiences. an

The Ball Game
The locals beat Bigtilnber on
July 4th by score of II to O.
The score looks very one-sided but
when you take into consideration
that the visitors did not have their
regular battery, and the one they
used was only makeshift that
they got from Billings, no wonder
they got q drubbing.
The ,Bigtimber boys are as clean
a bunch Of players as ever played
here. Their manager will not al
low any kicking or quarrelling. 1t
would have taken a better team to
beat our boys that game than is
to be found anywhere in eastern
Montana.
