FOURTH REGIMENT BAND A.
STATE FAIR.

The ninth annual engagement as the
official band of the State Fair will be
filled this year by the Fourth Regi-
ment band of Watertown. This band
has always given satisfaction at the
State Fair. This is to be expected
since this is the same band which
won the national band contest at Los
Angeles last July in competition with
some of the leading bands of the
country. At Omaha, Salt Lake City
and other points en- route the band
received numerous compliments for
their excellent playing. Probably no
other band in the Northwest is as eff
fective In playing accomplishments
for the vaudeville free acts between
heats and races and the vaudeville
program given just before the fire.

URGING IMMEDIATE ACTION

Washington, D.. c., Aug. 23.-The
railroad deadlock still continues today
The railroad presidents have not yet
made reply to the presidents proposal
for settlement of trouble with employees
to avoid strike. A committee of eight
presidents delegated to prepare tn
ply of the railroads has been in almost
continuous session debating the prob.
lens presented. No information is
given out of their discussions.
Many members of the general com
mittee of GAO representing the train.
mems brotherhoods are becoming rest
less and impatient at the long delay anc
failure of the railroad presidents t.
reach q decision.
President Wilson today held a confer
nee with Senator Newlands and repre-
sentative Adams, chairmen of the com
mittees to which the bill increasing the
membership of the Interstate com
merce commission has been referred.
The president is urging that immediate
action be taken on the bill.

A Curious land of Era and lea. of Vol.

Iceland Is known as a land of con-
trasts." The land Of Iceland boasts in
comparatively small compass fire and
ice, volcanoes, glaciers and geysers.
There is magnificent scenery in it's
desolate plateaus. 1t has more than
100 volcanoes, of which the largest is
Hecla, 800 feet high. There are thou
sands of craters In Iceland, the chief
among them being Askya, with an area
OF thirty-four square miles.
OF glaciers there are more than 12O,
with aggregate areas of about $500
square miles. The largest is Vatna.
Not far from Hecla is the SO called
geyser region, where there are many
hot springs. The Great Geyser is six
ty feet In diameter. One geyser was
found to have water at q temperature
Of 262 degrees r., which makes it pos
sibly the hottest spring in the world.
One-eighth Of Iceland is glacier hid

domes, Of which the highest is Oraeta-
joknll, 6.424 feet.

years ago and now wanted to be boss
republican, and Cal slammed right back
ard asked Lem how about when Burke
was running for the eigh Office of sen
ator that he didn't carry the precinct?
You Moosers are renegades, says he
and Burke knows it, he continued.
When Burke gets into Hughes cabinet
he will have Bull Moose for dinner
every day ,-he hasn't got softening of
the heart or the brain, and they were
swearing before they finished. Finally,
Lem up all over again. Lem inquired
how about LaFollette! l said he was
alright. but awful grouchy. Now when
you write to Lem just be mighty care
full how you write, cause Lem is sure
touchy, and | notice some of those other
Moosers amt saying much. But when
you write to Cal you needn't be SO par
ticular; tell him to keep his mouth shut;
it will be better for the ticket, because
you don't need to worry about him, he
wo't vote the democratic ticket this
year. He says Burke and Tom Rob-
erts slipped n over Ewert: and then
he laughs and says Burke is some live
corpse. Yet now, about the 2. O.
There wouldn't be no chance for Cal as
against me, do you think? because |
voted the ticket all time for everybody,
and John Laughlin. too. My politics
is to vote 'er straight, and another
thing | am kinder uneasy about is the
way Hughes is talking about the civil
service. What | don't understand is
whether he is IN favor of it now, and
putting the democrats in for keeps or
whether he means to wait till he Is
president and then pnt US in for keeps.
There was one thing Taft really was
really right on; 1 wish you would ex
plain that to me because sometimes |
don't know just what Hughes means,
You don't think that Cal could beat me
for the office?
Fatefully,

THE LAST STRAW

Washington, ID. g., Aug. % Sixty
rai'roa1 presidents, representing prac-
ticaIly all the systems of the United
States, expect to give President Wilson
their reply tomorrow to his proposal for
averting the threatened railroad strike.
1t will be a virtual acceptance of the
Presidents proposal. carrying the con-
cession of a basic eight-hour day with
pro rata overtime equivalent to a &c
per cent increase on overtime work. &C
cording to those in the confidence of
the railroad executives, but it may car
ry qualifications to which it is hoped
that the President and brotherhood off
Gals will yield.

PRECINCT "a.

Mr.. County Chairman: First, [ am
not so sure as l was last spring! things
ais't going right. They were going
right this summer, but since the con-
vention it's all wrong.
You have heard of Lem Jones, and
what a bowling Mooser he is. Well.
that 8 the trouble. Every time he
starts arguing with somebody down at
the blacksmith shop about what he calls
the "Trajesty at Chicago" In fact he
don't like the nomination of Hughes
for president. Lem and Sarah, his
wife, were the leaders of the Armagad-
don Club four years ago. Ewert and
Roy Johnson came down here one time
and Ewert organized the Club, and
Roy made a terrible Bull Moose speech,
and Lem and Sarah just fell right to it.
Lem is still wearing a red handkerchief
around his neck. and when we had our
precinct meetin'. he sang Onward,
Christian Soldier"
Now, l have explained that conven-
ton to him most seventeen times, and
last night he came down to the house
and l showed him how Ewert was right
in sticking for Hans DeMut. Have
Ewert have a talk with him lin Dutch)
and knew he could depend on him; and
showed him how Teddy never really
never wanted the nomination but was
! working on the @. I. for Hughes all
the time, as Teddy wasn't in favor of
a three term for nobody, and he wasn't
even in favor of a 2-term for his friend
Taft. Well, as l said, this was down
to the house and he was most satisfied,
cepting he is awful mad at Penrose and
Barnes. Well. every thing was fine
when, who should come in but that big
soldering Calkins. "a friend of mine
told me how Cal was expecting to get
the postofice when when Burke got
into Hughes cabinet). Well, Cal just
bowed right in. and says he Lem, old
socks. how's Armagadden?" Well,
Lem just went all to pieces in q minute.
Now that's no way forCal to talk if he
wants to be 4 politician, when there is
63 Moosers in this precinct and only IA
Tafters. Ny wife couldn't stand argu.
arguments. they got 10 hot. She made

gram, three of short distance and four
over stretch OF ground
The track Is i'm grand shape and a.
good days sport should be had. The
mutuel mac hines are working in grand
shape and not a dissenting voice was
heard at the course Saturday.
Inc fact Is clearly demonstrated that
the Bowie course is now taking the place

Of runners, has purchased the contract
of DR.. J. S. Tyree on the services OF w.
Mckenzie. a local boy, who has been
riding for the Tyree stable at New Or
leans.
Mckenzie was exit emely unlucky owing
to the fact nearly all of Tyree's horses
were ailing all winter and gave this
promising lad little or no chance to show
his ability.
Shields stated that in his opinion the
boy will develop into a high class rider
when he is given the opportunity to
ride. 1t is the intention of Mr.. Shields
to give Mckenzie a thorough schooling
under mis- own instructions and before
the summer has passed he looks for
ward to see this lad amongst the first
class riders of the country
