---then like all loyal Missou1ians,
we'll be out to the Fair

It's on just such an occasion as this
that the superiority of NJ. NJ. Co.
service stands out prominently. It's
one of those hurry up days, when
everybody, in anticipation of a big
time, tries to crowd an entire days
business into a few hours. But no
matter how big your shopping list
may be, if you come here you can
finish it before noon, and, what is
more, you'll be satisfied with your
purchases, because you will have Sc
lected from the biggest and best
stocks in town and with assurance in
advance that everything is of blue ribbonquality.

BALLOON ASCENSION
PLEASES THE | ! CROWD

Of the afternoons attractions the
balloon ascension by Harry Wright of
the Walter Raub Balloon company
was the sensation. Conditions were
ideal. The big balloon, filled from a
position directly in front of the grand
stand, rose almost straight from it's
position, Up and up it went, the
people crowding from their seats in
the grandstand to see the balloon
become but q tiny speck against the
cloudless sky. Then the airman cut
loose in his parachute and slowly
sailed to earth under his striped UNI
brella, all colors of the rainbow. So
straight had the balloon ascended that
Wright reached the ground with a
graceful bump just outside the south
Playground fence. He won the race
with his balloon back to earth but a
few seconds, the big bag falling just
outside the west fence. 1t was q
mighty pretty exhibition and pleased
the crowd immensely. The balloon
ist will give a similar exhibition every
day during the fair at about the same
time, $3.50 o'clock in the afternoon.
The Daily Missoulian., 1914-09-30

the races began, and there were many
III the bleachers. 1t was n splendid
crowd for the first day. 1t indicated
great interest and gives promise of
what may be expected during the fol-
lowing days of the fair.
Scarcely had the sun peeped up over
Mount Sentinel yesterday before
the fair ground was alive with activi-
ties of all sorts. In spite of the ad-
vance preparations, much remained to
be done to have everything in shape
for the opening day crowds. AS is
always the case in an exhibition of
this kind. there were those who could
not be on hand with their truck or
stock until the morning of the first
day. These, Of course, lost choice To-
cations and stalls, but, because of the
splendid general plans and arrange
ments, there were plenty Of opportuni-
ties and no one was denied a place.

STREET CAR SERVICE
'7'' IS MUCH IN FAVOR


"Say. this is fine. They have GER
tainly shown a little sense in pulling
this stunt. And look! There goes n
fine walk all the way to the gate. And
dts only a step, too. Better than
special train to the old grounds"
This is the way tho crowd talked
about tho arrangements which had
been made to reach the fairgrounds
by way of the Daily addition car OF the
street railway company. The fair run
is to the end of the yards at the car
barns. Here crossing has been
graded over the tracks and seats have
been provided to accommodate about
100 people while waiting for the cars
for the return trip. Toilets have also
been provided. From this landing sta
ton walk has been graded and
rolled to the Playground entrance. 1t
is seven blocks. Today there will be
a 10-minutc service on the Daily addi-
ti0n line. 10 fs esq

GOVERN SELVES
.F.E.Muzzy, Springfield, Mass,
Says Policies of Harrison
Meet Condemnation
TALK OF INDEPENDENCE
IS INJURlNG BUSINESS
Islands Enormous Source of
Revenue to u. S., but Invest
orS Are Afraid to Move

That the new policies put in force
in the Philippines by GoV-gen. Francis
Burton Harrison are meeting with al
most universal condemnation among
the American residents of the islands,
and that, in his opinion, ii would be
nothing short of a crime to allow the
Filipfnos to govern themselves, was
the gist of statement made this
morning by F.. E. Muzzy, a retired cap
itaiist of Springfield. Mass, who ar
rived in Honolulu yesterday in the
Siberia, on short visit Mr. Muzzy
has spent the past several months in
the Orient. during which time he vis-
tied the Philippines and made an ex-
haustiye investigation of conditions
there.
Not more than one-tenth of the
Filipinos know what self-goyernment
means" he said. Business is at a
standstill in the Philippines at the
present time owing to the talk of in-
dependence which has floated over
from the United States. The islands
are not dependent upon the United
States but are selfsupporting. They
are an enormous source of revenue to
Americas mercantile interests on ac-
count of the great business which has
developed among the merchants dur
ing the past Is years. / consider it
nothing short of crime to turn the
government over to the Filipinos. As
to the decrease in business activity,
this depression is attributed to the re-
ports received from the United States
encouraging the belief that independ-
ence for the islands is near at hand
business men everywhere are COM
planning of conditions in the Philip
piEes and even the insular government
is feeling the brunt of depression.
A large majority of the Filipinos
who are able to pass on the question
sef Independence and 80 per cent of
the business men do not want it. 1t
is always said that the United States
does not want colonies, but it has on
its hands now 100000 people whom it
is honor bound to protect as they are
dependent people and not one-tenth
of them know what self-government
means. To turn them loose in the i'm
mediately future would mean a repe-
tition of the present Mexican situa-
tion. Manila residents say this would
please Japan for Japan would gladly
seize the islands and, because of their
wonderful undeyeloped resources
could float large quantities of bonds
with which to replenish her depleted
treasury.

Returning Missionaries Are
Enthusiastic Over Work in

Enthusiastic over the marked ad-
vance which Christianity has made in
India, Japan. China and Korea during
the past several years, party OF
American missionaries to these

ans and Mr.. Harvey remained In Ho-
nolulu, and plan to spend several
weeks here.
When seen at the steamer this
morning, Miss Dysart, who has been
engaged ia mission work In Korea for
the past six years, said that she be-
lieves Korea is one of the easiest and
most pleasant mission fields in the
world, due to the fact that the people
of Korea are becoming more and
more favorably disposed toward
Christianity. She pointed out that the
station in Southern Korea to which
she is attached now maintains some
seventy churches, the largest Of which
she said has membership Of between
300 and $50, while the others have at

POACHERS BUSY
in ISLANDS OF
THE SOUTH SEAS
Kestrel Brings News Of Japan.
ese Removing Warehouse
from Christmas Isle

The presence of Japanese in the
role of poachers in the various un-
protected islands throughout the
south seas was brought to light with
the return of the British steamer Kes-
trei to Honolulu this morning follow
ing a three weeks cruise to Tanning
and washington island copra estates.
That q large and substantially-built
warehouse belonging to an extensive
but now abandoned plant operated by
one of the phosphate companies was
removed from Christmas island by
Japanese is the belief expressed by
officers in that vessel today.
Christmas island lies about 200
miles to the eastward of Washington,
which is now base of operation for
Armstrong & Armstrong in the har-
vesting of copra Christmas island
has been rich in guano deposits. To
gather the deposit, a number of miles
of light railway and several buildings
had been constructed there. When
the phosphate beds were found to have
been exhausted. the laborers and
much Of the machinery were removed
TO Ocean and Makatea. A small trad
ing schooner called at Tanning at the
time the Kestrel remained there and
brought the report .that a vessel
manned by japanese had spent some
days at Christmas island, and before
departing the men had denuded the
islet OF practically everything of
value.
Christmas island affords last rest
ing-pIace for the wreck of the British
freighter Aeon, which six years ago
sailed from Puget Sound with cargo
valued at about $500,000 and went
ashore on reef off the island during
a typhoon. The battered and torn
hulk is yet a prominent object as YES
sells near the spot That this wreck
and cargo have proved valuable

ally conceded
