Stafford County Day" al
the Fair

A number of people living in and
around Liberal and adjoining towns
came here from Stafford county,
Kansas, and they have decided it
would be a good idea to have gath
ering OF former citizens of that
county on one day of the fair. Ac-
cording there will be a tent erected
at the fair grounds next Thursday,
September l6, and all people who are
former citizens of Stafford county are
invited to bring basket dinner and
spend the day together. A number
of people from other towns have ex-
pressed desire that this be done,
and quite large number Of former
Staffordites are expected to be pres
emit Anyone desiring Information
about this can obtain it from r. II.

Will be Some Fair

Everything is in readiness for the
Southwest Fair, and it promises to
be the biggest and best one ever held
in Seward county. New buildings
for the housing of livestock and ex-
hibits have been erected or will be
completed in few days, bleachers
have been added to the grandstand,
the race track and ball diamond have
been worked over, and everything is
in excellent shape to show up the
products of the Southwest in proper
style. The different exhibition build
ngs have been arranged in two rows
with a driveway between, so one will
not have to run all over the grounds
to see the different displays. For
amusements there will be three ball
games, horse races, automobile races,
daylight fire works, and, in sale bill
parlance, "other things to numerous
to mention" All farmers horse
drawn vehicles will be admitted TO
the fair grounds free, but small
charge will be made for automobiles.
There will be plenty of grain, hay
and straw on the grounds to feed the
livestock, which will be sold at reas-
enable prices This fair must not be
considered as a Liberal Fair or
Seward county fair, it is strictly
what the name implies-the South
west Fair, and exhibits from all over
the Southwest will be on display.
Get ready to attend every day. 1t
will be entertaining, instructive, and
worth your while.

To Establish Rock Pile

At meeting Of the city council
Tuesday evening, at which County
Commissioner Fuest and Sheriff Dob.
son were present, it was decided to
establish joint municipal and county
rock pile on which to employ prison
ers of both city and county. A COM
mittee was appointed by Mayor Nusz
to look after material and lots neces-
sary for same, and it is hoped by the
committee to have favorable report
at the next meeting night. This is a
move in the right direction and ought
to discourage few of the profession
al violators and Jail birds from get
ting too hilarious, under the impress
ion that they will get free board and
lodging during their Incarceration,
as has been the case formerly. Thirty
days at real honest-to-God labor for
a drunk or disorderly might become
rather monotonous after few samp-
les, and the rock pile will prove de.
terrent to future "liquidations.

A WORD TO FARMERS

There are many farmers within

The potato is Alaska's most i'm
portant crop, and, according to a COM
merce report, it is most profitable
one. Potatoes have been grown in
commercial quantities at the Fair
banks station for several years. The
object of growing them there was to
demonstrate that good potatoes could
be grown in the interior, and the re-
port says that the farmers in the vi
cinity have taken the hint. Nearly
all of them now devote considerable
acreage to this vegetable. One farmer
estimated his crop as high as SO tons,
which, at cents a pound, or $50 a
ton, the lowest price at which pota-
toes have been sold in Alaska up to
the present time, would bring him
$4,000. Hog raising has also been
started at Fairbanks, the hogs being
fed on the understandable potatoes.

SOURCE OF HAPPINESS.

It may be said, and truthfully, that.
the happiest people in the world are
not always, or even often, those who
have the greatest wealth. The possess
sion of wealth, honestly attained, is
no crime. 1t is a blessing to a coun-
try to number rich ones among its
population. But the wisest of the He
brew kings, who was a very rich man,
prayed: Give me neither poverty nor
riches; feed me with food convenient.
for me-" There are different classes
of the rich, one of them noted for the
pursuit and the enjoyment of the
frivolities of life. Woe be unto the
young man or woman who presumes'
to join that procession and to keep
along with it in each of its move.
ments Such a one will find, If with
an income that fails to justify, unpaid
debts, harassing creditors, sleepless
nights, and mayhap temptations to
commit a crime that will be an insl
delible blot upon lives. In looking
around for the discussions that show
disagreements, that are productive Of
strife, that bring the clouds of discon-
tent which obscure life's sunshine, it.
will be found that in many, if not in,
most instances, envy is the prime
cause of the strife that brings so much
unhappiness to the world of mankind

NO HOLIDAY
ON MONDAY
County Attorney Moore Declares Re-
port That Monday is Holiday Has
No Foundation and There is No
Law to Support 1t

Reports from Boise in which the
Statesman was quoted in last nights
StarMirror to the effect that Mon
day will be legal holiday in Idaho,
finds a difference of opinion as to the
correctness of the statement. The
state treasurer is quoted as having
claimed to have found an old statute
providing for the observance of Mon
day as a legal holiday when such
holiday falls on Sunday.
County Attorney Moore has been be-
seiged all morning with inquiries con-
cerning the matter and today stated
definitely that there was nothing in
the Idaho statutes providing for Sun
day holidays being observed on Mon
days. Though the Fourth of July
falls on Sunday and by reason of the
governors proclamation will be legal
ly observed Saturday, Monday will not
be legal holiday" said Mr. Moore.

tried out a number of experiments.
They secured a number of these pat

suits were published in a blight bull |
etin which has issued two or three
ears ago. Wherever these applica

GERMANY IN THE CLEAR

Germany has excellent grounds OF
which to show that the sinking of thu
Armenian was justified. This was the
concensus of unofficial opinion as ex
pressed by officials. The state depart
ment has ordered complete and thor
ough investigation of the circum-
stances surrounding the sinking. Am
bassador Page has been Instructed t.
send a man to the scene to question
the survivors. Directions have also
been sent to Ambassador Gerard to
get a report from the commander of
the submarine U-38. An inquiry is in
progress at Newport News to learn
whether the crew of the Armenian
was employed by the British admiral
ty or the Leyland line.
Eleven Americans Lost
LONDON, July Thirty lives were
lost when the steamer Armenian was
sunk according to dispatches receiv-
ed by the admiralty today. The num-
Der of Americans who perished was
placed at II. The survivors have land
ed at Cardiff, Bristol and Liverpool.
The American embassy has arranged
to return the bodies of the Americans
to the United States.
Monster Submarine Done Work
AVONMOUTH, Eng, July IA
monster submarine, larger than any
heretofore seen in British waters, tor
pedoed and sank the steamer Armen-
ian. The vessel which was sent to the
bottom with it's cargo OF mules and a
loss of 29 lives, including about 20
Americans, were victims of an under
sea boat at least 300 feet long, ac-
cording to survivors thrilling stories
of the chase, attack, struggles of the
crew and muleteers as were told by
those saved. 1t was confirmed that |
the Armenian had endeavored to es-
cape and was shelled by the subma-
rine which has been identified as the
U-38.
