Of the features of the show.
There win be an admission fee OF
25 cents charged at the gate for all
people other than attendants of stock
and exhibitors. This is to defray the
expenses of putting on the show and
it is hoped that everybody who is in
terested in the raising and breeding
of horses and mules will come and
see the show, and help this good thing
along At the Roundup grounds
there is room enough to stable over
$50 head of stock besides all of the
corral room which will accommodate
a large number of horses, so you see
there will be room enough for every
body's animal The officers of the as
sociation are beginners in this work
and we hope that the public will not
criticise our mistakes too much but
will get in and help US with their sug-
gestions and good will
There will be a parade of most of
the stock during the noon hour which
will march up town along the length
of Main street. When you see this
parade don't come around and tell us
that YOU have a better animal than
the ones You saw in the parade, for II
you have the place to settle that is to

stock, All stock will have to be at
the grounds Saturday morning, the
9th of october, by $500 a. m, with the
exception of the horses that will be
shown in harness or under saddle, as
they will be judged in the afternoon.
Stock will have to be brought in in
time to be entered up before COM
peting in the show ring. People who
are looking to buy any kind of a stall
lion, colt or jack, will do we'll to at
tend the show as there will be some
people who will make a special effort
to bring in some stock that they wish
to dispose of and this will be the time
to compare animals with the prize
winners and make a dicker with the
owners, and furthermore you will not
have to travel all over the country to
see the animal, that you might want
to buy. The secretary would like to
see more horses entered in the high
jump so that we may make arrange
ments for that class, which win have
a money value of $4,000 distributed in
three prizes.

sidered by Secretary Daniels and tn"
members of the government neutrality
board before the navy department
took over the Sayvilic station some
time ago. Mr. Daniels told Of this
for the first time today, explaining
that while there WAS 10 Greet evil
dCEco of violation OF neutrality it had
been deemed best to put the plant
under full government control. Mr..

tary Daniels, urged thai messages
transmitted through Sayv:lle, pur.
porting to be ordinary comm erciai
commune ca ions, such as orders for

from American ports.
While the navy departments con-

Dwight, Stanley and Chestnut streets
have moved rapidly of late. The
double tracks. which reach from

sIEPPLER TO SUPPORT
HOUR DAY POLICY
Vice President of Machinists' Union
Bows to Executive Board Not TO
Push General Strike.

Washington, Aug. 10. ]. Keppler,
vice president of the international as
ISOLATION of machinists, met the execu-
tive board of the association here to-
day and agreed to support its policy
for a general campaign to establish
the eight hour day in munition plants
rather than a resort to national
strike.
Keppler, who led the recent rtrike
in the plant of the Remington Arms
company at Bridgeport, had urged a
national strike for improved condi-
tons for workers in view of the prof
its to manufacturers from large war
orders. Today he submitted his ideas
to the executive board and found the
majority favored a campaign for bet
ter conditions. with a strike as the last
resort.
1T has been said that I favored a
national strike and il has been insinua-
ted that there are foreign influences in
connection with our movement" said
Keppler. IF there is any influences
1 do not know of it and it has nothing
to do with our efforts to improve the
working conditions of our men. OF
course, / am in sympathy with the
general policy of the association and
