new Line TO
OLYMPIA IS
OPEN TODAY
Crowds to See Formal
Dedication of O.-W.
Extension
TWO CELEBRATIONS
One at Station, the Other
at Chamber of
Commerce

The formal opening and dedication
of the new line into Olympia just COM
pleted by the Union Pacific system,
will take place in that city today,
under the auspices Of the Olympia
Chamber of Commerce. 1t will be
a celebration of unusual interest, and
the Olympians are so enthusiastic
about it that invitations have been
extended to all Chambers of Commerce
and other business organizations in
Washington, also in Portland. Spe-
cial delegations are expected from
Seattle, Tacoma, Sumner, North Puy-
allup, Centralia, Chehalis, Hoquiam,
Aberdeen, Portland and other nearby
cities.
The program will consist of appro-
pirate demonstrations at the COM
pany's handsome new depot, probably
from midday until mid-afternoon, and
later at the Chambers headquarters
One feature of the entertainment will
be band of music; another will be a
buffet lunch which the compay nwill
serve in the station to the invited
guests from outside points. Actresses
by leading citizens and railroad Off
cials will punctuate the ceremonies at
both the station and Chamber head
quarters, and If the attendance re-
naming for the evening is sufficiently
large to justify the event will close
with a jollification in the Chamber
rooms.
The company also will have on ex-
hibition at the depot for inspection
one of it's new and elegant all-steel
trains, illustrating the wonderful de-
velopment in passenger equipment and
the effort railroads are exerting to
make the travelling public safe and
comfortable.
Regular train service to and from
Olympia was inaugurated on New
Years day as planned by the company
several months ago, but untoward
weather conditions had SO interrupted
progress on the station building that
it was impossible to complete it by
that date. Formal opening was ac-
cordingly deferred until today.
Olympia has greeted this occasion

J. NJ. MOORE is CANDIDATE
FOR COUNTY CLERK
Former Register of Deeds Aspires TO
Hold the Office Which Alb
sOrbed the Job He
Once Held Here.

This weeks announcement column
carries the announcement of ]. M.
Moore, who aspires to be elected
county clerk OF Bryan county, sub
iect to the action of the voters at the
Democratic primary, August 1st,
l1916.
Mr.. Moore made three races for
Register of Deeds and won twice.
The first time he was defeated by
the late w. l.. Poole, and next time
turned the tables and defeated Mr..
Poole. He was reelected and held
the office two terms, when 1t was
abolished by law and the duties of
the office absorbed by the county
clerk.
Mr.. Moore is seventy-five years
old. for many years n resident of
this county and a man that people
refer to as a good man and a good
neighbor. He is an old Confederate
veteran and served through the en-
tire campaign. He is unusually Wig
orous for a man Of his age, and in
spite of the loss of one leg. (his con-
tribution to the cause of the Con-
federacyl, he can put many young
men to shame at getting over the
ground.
We suppose he filled the office of
Register of Deeds satisfactorily, for
no one seems to have complained of
the manner in which the office was
conducted. He says he is especially
anxious to be county clerk, as he is
familiar with many of the
duties of that office.
Mr. Moore is too well known in
the community to require any lengthy
at the hands of this
writer. He asks us to say that If
YOU who read this squib, consider
him worthy of your vote, he will
appreciate you stamping the little
