WESTERN GOVERNORS
Will Be in Abundance at Information
al Soil-Products Exposition.

al SOil-froQuctS ExpOS1tlon.
A significant thing in the prcpara-
tion for the International Farm Con-
gress and its accompanying lnterna-
tional Soil-Products Exposition, Den
yer, Sept. 2o-Oct. 10, is the assurance
thus early that so many Western
governors will be present during this
event.
Replies have been received thus far
from 10 governors OF the West to let
tiers sent them simultaneously from
Governor Carlson of Colorado, for
mcr Governor Ammons of Colorado,
who is member of the Board OF
Governors OF the Congress, and the
Congress Offices themselves.
OF this number, there is reason
able assurance that at least or &
Western governors will be present on
Monday, October 4, which has been
designated as Governors Day. This is
the opening day of the Congress scs-
sions, which last four days, and is in
the midst of the great Exposition.
Among the governors who have
thus signi6ed their intention of being
present, are Governor Capper OF Kan
sas, Governor Morehead of Nebras-
ka, Governor Kendrick OF Wyoming
Governor Hunt OF Arizona, Governor
Mcdonald OF New Mexico, Governor
Ferguson of Texas and Governor
Spry of Utah.
Anumber OF governors. in their re-
plies TO the letters OF invitation which
have been sent them, place themselves
squarely on record as being desirous
of coming because they are SO inter
ested in the work which the Congress
is doing.
As Governor Alexander of Idaho
puts it, The West believes in the
work of the Congress and Exposition.
1t holds that they are of useful
public character and that they a,c de-
serving of the support and the CO.
operation of public officials and the
foremost citizens of the West"
The governors, in their letters. in
dicate their intention to support in
every way, the movement in each
Western state to have not only suita-
BILE, representation in the Congress,
but comprehensive showing of the
states products and resources in the
great EXPOSITION.

County VIII Build Crossings

At meeting of the county comm
issioners on Tuesday delegation of
Rocky Ford citizens appeared and made
plea for aid in extending cement
walk from the city limits to Valley
View cemetery.
The board agreed to build the three
crossings necessary and contributions
of cement and cash are comming in
with such regularity that the outlook
for cement walk to the cemetery
before the next muddy season is very
favorable.

Cants Looking Good

The Crowley County Cantaloupe and
Produce association reports that their
melons were not as severely damaged
by the hail as at first supposed. and are
showing up well.
The average in the county will not be
materially reduced, and the general opn-
ion seems to be that cantaioupes will be
worth money this fall.
The association will meet Monday night
in Ordway for the purpose Of passing on
applications Of growers to ship their
melons through the organization and
everyone is expected to be present

TOURNAMENT
Will Be Attraction at Arkan-
sas Valley Fair
SECRETARY POLLOCK
PREPARING PLANS
For the Twenty-Fourth Annual Fair
Which Opens on the Last
Day of August


Acting upon the initiative of
Secretary Pollock the directors of
the Arkansas Valley Fair associa-
ton in session early this week de-
cided to have a baseball tourna-
ment as one of the free attractions
at the twenty-fourth annual
Arkansas Valley Fair. Detailed
plans for the tournament have
not yet been arranged, but it was
agreed to offer cash prizes rang
ing from 5000 for the winning
team to $50 for the fourth prize,
which will probably induce other
teams than those composing the
Arkansas Valley league to com.
pete. According to the number
of teams entering the tournament
will likely depend the number of
games to be played, but with the
exception of Sept. 2, Watermelon
Day-when the congested condi-
ton of the grounds, the stock
parade, big racing card and other
regular features precludes the at
tempt to wedge in game-at
least one exhibition of the great
American game is assured each
day of our big fair.
RandeI VIII Be Publicity nan
Other new and unique attrac-
tions are being arranged for that
promise to make the Arkansas
Valley Fair of Aug. 81, Sept. 1, 2,
and 3, 1915, even more success
ful than any of its noted prede-
cessors. These attractions as they
are decided upon will be made
public by Publicity Man Randel,
who is expected to drop in on us
any day and again take charge OF
the publicity work for the great
est fair in the West. M. U. will
likely be bubbling over with new
ideas and novel stunts SO Tie En-
terprise will not encroach upon
his recognized field with any pre-
mature announcement of the at
fractions under discussion.
Speed Program
In response to a persistent de-
mand from racing men the local
association this week had The
Enterprise print them several
hundred copies of the speed pro-
gram conveying the information
that entries close on Aug. 2, and

LOCAL 'YOGA
CIRCLE WILL
BRING CHARGES

Tacoma's center of the Chris
tian Yoga cult, shocked at the
reports from Seattle that two Of
the leaders there were held on a
statutory charge, today prepared
to file formal charges against
them with the head of the order,
A. II. Mozumdar of Spokane.
The basis of their complaint
will be that If the two-Dr.
Ralph Debit and Mrs. Rudolph
Gerber-have done as they are
charged to have done, or If they
have taught that free love- or
anything similar to it is part Of
the cults teaching, they have
acted falsely.
The complaint will be made by
the Rev. F. o. Garrison, 613 No.
| ST., pastor, and Mrs. II. d. Perry,
secretary.
1.-THE order does not believe in
free love, nor does it condone
anything that savors of free love"
said the Rev. Mr.. Garrison today.
IF such has been taught, 1t is a
wicked perversion of our belief
Both the Rev. Mr.. Garrison and
Mrs. Perry said they had met
DeBet and Mrs. Gerber, and that
they had passed themselves off
as husband and wife. The two
had visited the local organization
when first it was forming.
There are 60 or rs members
locally.
