BALL PLAYER PRAYED FOR
HITS.

Frank Snyder, the st. Louis
Cardinals star catcher, who
leads the National league in bat
ting, says that before he goes to
bed every night he kneels down
and prays that he may be able to
hit the ball safely the next day.
He is sincere in the belief that
his prayers have been answered.
All pitchers look alike to him.
AS a thrower to bases Snyder is
in a class by himself. During a
double header with the Cubs in
st. Louis recently he pegged out
seven runners who vainly tried
to steal second.

The ChiIdren's Stars.

When snug in-bed time GENES about.
And dark-night shadows creep.
A million little stars shine out,
While little children sleep.
lsve 10 think when, near and far,
The children are in bed,
For each Il special little star
Is shining overhead.
When looking from my windows small
The many stars ! see,
| wonder which among them all
Is shining there for me.
Ana then, for fear that it may miss
Its little earth-child 5 love, .-...... g.
blow Il tiny goodnight kiss
To my own star above.
And when my sleepy time is near,
| say this little prayer
- God bless the little children here,
Gcd bless the stars up there. a"

MARIANNE FAIR To
OPEN NEXT MONDAY
EVERYTHING is ASTIR AS PREP
ARATIONS FOR GREAT EXHI-
BITION GO FORWARD-BEST
FAIR IN HISTORY is PROMISE.

Mariana, Oct. 3O.-Everything in
and around Mariana is now alive
and astir with the excitement of the
great fair which is to begin Novem-
Der 9, and continue all that week.
The fair grounds are now taking
on their gala attire, the grounds are
beautiful with their velvet sward of
Bermuda grass, the buildings have all
been renovated, the accommodations
for exhibits especially for live stock,
poultry, and hogs have been enlarged,
in anticipation of the most extensive
patronage in these lines that the fair
has ever had.
Contracts have been closed with
the Metropolitan Carnival people,
and it goes without saying that the
visitors to the fair will have plenty
to amuse and occupy them, outside
of the tremendous amount of local
exhibits from the territory adjacent
to the fair itself.
The great bomb-throwing airship, or
areoplane, will be here for practical
ly all the week, and will make the
first flight on the very first day,
Tuesday, of the fair; and no one
should miss the chance to see this
wonderful airship.
Mariana is now famous for it's
fairs. Each one has been better
than the one before and each one has
been excellent. Special trains will be
run over the Mariana & BIounts-
town railroad, and over the L. & N.
railroad, enabling visitors to come in
the morning, and return after the ex-
ercises each night; let everybody
come if they wish to have a royal
time, and see the finest agricultural
and live stock, and ladies' fancy work
exhibits that it is possible to ar
range.

Secures Agency
Dodge Bros. Car
LOCAL SALES RIGHTS FOR POP
ULAR CAR, MUCH SOUGHT
AFTER; 10000 SOLD IN FIRST
SIX MONTHS.

Word was received from Detroit
yesterday, confirming the appoint
ment of c. H. Hays, as local dealers
for Dodge Brothers in Pensacola and
vicinity. Mr.. Hays today is the sub
ject of congratulations on Automo-
bile Row, as the agency for Dodge
Brothers car is one of the most
sought after of any motor car on the
market.
Just year ago, Dodge Brothers,
who had been manufacturing the vi
tai parts for more than 100000 mo-
tor cars, announced that they would
soon market a car bearing their own
name. Today, over 10000 satisfied
purchasers of Dodge Brothers cars
are driving their machines daily and
obtaining the utmost in satisfaction.
perhaps never before in the his
tory of the automobile industry has
new car met with such instantane-
GUS success as has Dodge Brothers
car" says Mr.. Hays, local dealer.
Dealers and owners have now had a
year in which to judge the car and
it goes without saying that the pub
lie has set its stamp of approval on
this popular priced car. Not only
has the factory been oversold from
the very beginning, but even today,
when the first rush might be expect
ed to be over, we have three pur-
chasers for every car we can get.
"In bringing out their new car
Dodge Brothers set an entirely new
standard for the popular priced field.
Accustomed to securing imitation
leather and careless workmanship in
low-priced cars, the motoring public
was agreeably surprised TO find gen
uine leather upholstery, excellent
springs and up-to-the-minute equip
ment on the new Dodge Brothers
car. We feel that every sale of a
car means an additional booster and
ara preparing for the biggest season
in the history Of our BUSINESS"
Dodge Brothers new automobile
is real car in every particular.
Freakish design has been carefully
avoided and the beautiful stream-line
body is combined with powerful 30
IS horsepower motor, to make an
ideal car for five passengers. 1t is
a big roomy car in every sense of
the word, having a wheeIbase of ITO
inches and wheels 80 by ,1-2 inches.
The motor is cast enbloc and has a
bore of 3 7-8 inches and a stroke
a 1-2 inches. Electric lighting and
starting apparatus is included, and
the equipment in every way suggests
the car of $4,000 rather than one of
S785, the price which Dodge Brothers
have made. Real leather upholstery
and the latest type of self lubricating
springs makes the car one of the
easiest riding machines that has ever
been marketed. Among the unusual
features on the car Is the speedome-
ter drive, which is connected directly
to the transmission and is, therefore,
practically trouble proof. The ar
rangement of the transmission gears
is also a novel one, no gears except
! the third being in operation when the
care is driven on direct drive.
A full car load of these celebrated
Dodge cars has just arrived. Adv.

d,rtay the most essential feature OF a satisfac.
tory marketing arrangement is uniform produc-
ton not the haphazard. variety sys.
tenn that has been in vogue here so long, and you
cannot have the one before the other.
" We're not Getting our money worth is an
other argument Who knows? How much does
your boy or girl learn in the first year at school.
How much did YOU accomplish in your first year
on your farm! How much-and be honest with
yoursplf-havc You accomplished, matter OF
fact. in all the years YOU We been on your farm
1t would seem to be too obvious that it is out of all
reason to ask a man to accomplish IN eight or ten
months that which the arguments made at the
hearing the other day admit and declare has not
been accomplished in all the years that farming
has been carried on in Thurston county, by the
farmer himself in his own individual case.
"The present experts no good; the Farm Blu
reau is improperly organized ARE other argyll
ments. Nearly three weeks ago the editor OF this
newspaper told the leader of the opposition what
to do about that, offered to help him and asked
him for suggestions that came. If the pres
ent expert is no good get another, Cardiff said
the other day. though expressing his confidence in
the man; if the Farm Bureau is improperly organ
lied re-organize it as it should be, but also,
told this man and as Cardiff said the other day,
don t condemn and kill system because of things
that you yourselves can cure. That would be
about as sensible as chOpping down tree because
there is bug on it's topmost branch.
So, after all the noise has blown away, we come
back to the only argument that is left-'We know
it all; why hire man to teach us any more?"
And the to that is plain that it is hardly
worth repeating: the man who "knows it al"
ought not to be on a farm in Thurston county or
anywhere else; he ought to be in Heaven, where
he belongs.

''You II be sorry" if you do not attend the first
annual Thurston County Fair before it closes Sat
urday night, for there's dandy exhibit of the
agricultural resources of this county-and many
of it's other resources-out there on the Carlyon
grounds between Olympia and Tumwater, and
even though Jupiter Pluvius has tried of and on
to hinder it, he has not succeeded by any means.
Elsewhere in this issue the Fair and it's exhibits
and the many interesting facts and features con-
nected with it, are more fully recounted. All we
want to say to you here, what we want to empha-
size and urge as strongly we can, is for you to
see that Fair before it closes. 'Youll be sorry If
you don't and you'll be mighty pleasantly sur
prised and astonished if you do.

WHAT OUR FATHERS READ ABOUT :
IN THIS PAPER FIFTY YEARS AGO

From The Washington Standard for
October IA, 1895. Vol. v. No. 40.
The opening of at least two great
railroads within the next ten years
has become fixed certainty, based
upon the great commercial necessity
of the world of trade and speculation
and enterprise.
We are pleased to observe that the
various churches and societies of
Portland manifest much interest in
finding homes for the Yankee girls
soon expected to our shores. While
we do not fully appreciate Mr.. Mer-
GERS motives in bringing SO many
really helpless people to our doors,
and no families, yet we are pleased to
believe they will be taken care Of, If
not among our own people, by our
neighbors of Oregon.
Some of our townspeople have
struck a new gold ledge in the Cas-
cades. It has been found cropping
out along the mountainside for a
considerable distance and. like all
such discoveries, great hopes are en-
tertained.
Old Mount Hood is in state of
eruption, says the local of the Ore
gonian, who has seen immense vol
umes of black smoke arising in that
direction.
A dispatch from Kansas City, Sept.
80, says: The first through train
from St. Louis, over the Missouri Pa
cific railroad, reached here this after
noon. Regular through trains will
commence running Monday next.

as attractively printed, the Leaf Chronicle has
done much for GAINESVILLE and Montgomery

Of that city should be glad, mudh for which it
itself should be proud.

OF far-reacbing influence and effect upon the
success Of the woman suffrage campaign, in which
the women of this state possessing the ballot are
interested in seeing their sisters in other states
succeed, will be the modest announcement by
President Wilson that, not as president or as a
party leader but as citizen of New Jersey called
upon to express his conviction at the polls, he will
vote for woman suffrage. The most recent of our
expresidents fatty opposes it the other first We
hemently opposed it and then when in desperate
straits as boiling candidate, espoused it.

CITY OFFICIAL PAPER
THE OLYMPIA OF TODAY.

Finally, let me say that greatly
prised to find Olympia the attractive city it
u.s. My last visit, half dozen years ago. left
bad impression with me. So | went there
last week rather reluctantly-only to find it
one of the finest cities have visited for long
time-and prosperous | think l can say in
all candor that Olympia today is making
greater Roadway, taking of course, popula-
ton into consideration than any other city
in Oregon or Washington. And you must re-
member get around lot and see about all
of the cities in the tow states.
So says Addison Bennett feature writer of the
Portland Oregonian, in the concluding paragraph
of the illustrated article which appeared in last
Sundays edition of that widely read newspaper.
In that paragraph is summed up expressions we
have SO often heard from visitors to the city that
republsh it, for it tells in very few words the
remarkable difference between the Olympia of just
few short years ago and the Olympia Of today,
a difference SO often mentioned
This new reputation Of the city, city that is
making greater Roadway than any
other city in Oregon or Washington as Addison
Bennett puts it, is gaining ground rapidly, and
articles such as this, circulating as this does
throughout great part Of Washington, all Of
Oregon and much Of Idaho, will stimulate the
spreading Of the story Of the new Olympia, and at
the same time it will serve to wake up those of
rs here at home into realization Of how fine a
city we actually have-and there are few Of us
here and there who need to be told Of these
things.
Addison Bennett did not have to frame his state
ment 20 strongly, so broadly, and would not have
done SO, especially in view Of the bad impression
he says previous visit half dozen years or SO
ago had given him. if his own knowledge Of the
cities Of the two states had not warranted such a
statement Coming from him, then, a man who
makes it his business to travel from city to city
throughout these two states and to report on con-
ditions as he actually sees them, and appearing in
newspaper SO widely read as the Oregonian, such
an assertion cannot but rebound to the benefit of
Olympia.

DO you KNOW IT ALL7"

In an honest and sincere effort to analyze the
statements made by the opponents Of the county
agriculturist plan at the hearing before the com
missioners last Monday, we are unable to find
after all the prejudice and personal animus and
politics have been eliminated any other basis for
the OPPOSITION than this: eve know it all; why
hire man to teach any moref''
The marketing feature of the argument, summed
up in the assertion that there's no use teaching
us how to grow more when we can't sell what we
raise now is, as matter of fact no argument
at all against the farm expert system That is
part of the system s work and when farmer who
has made farming his business all his life and has
failed in that length of time, as he admits to solve
the marketing problem applied to himself
alone, asks man who is trying to help him, to
solve that problem for him and all the other farm
ers of the county at the same time fatty and with
out hindrance in eight or ten short months, that
farmer is asking something that is not only wholly
unreasonable but very difficult as his own expe
rience has taught him and as he himself will admit
if he but stops and thinks about it. And Incl.
