Heavy artillery from the forces of Uncle Sam stationed at Douglas will ! be a spectacular feature of the big
 July 4th celebration. according to plans of the committeeman as dis cussed al last evenings big get-to- gether Of the leaders of the holiday movement The presence during the celebration Of a large detachments Of troops. led by some ol tue more prominent officers stationed al Doug las, will furnish the Fourth obsery- ance with a military glamour in most appropriate harmony with the true 1 significance of the day Indeed it seems strkingly fitting that the de lenders of American liberty and ! American principeles, who are tenn ] porarily located on the border of 1 Mexico, should send a delegation of the enlisted men with their officers to add to the splendor of a day which will be marked by patriotic displays and parades to the strains of martial music
