Big Crowd Attends
Polk County Round Up

I Independence, Ore, June l5.-The In
dependence Roundup, Polk county g
first, opened at $3.50 today with big
/ parade on Main street. A throng, of
visitors from Marion, Benton, Linn and
Yamhill counties was thrilled by the
riding of bucking steers, wild horses
and fast racing. The events were staged
on the race track in the outskirts of
the city.
The Roundup for the first time re-
places the annual Independence races,
which have been held here for the last
seven years with variety of entrants
in the contests.
Bertha Blanchet, champion girl re-
lay race rider. made the best time
this afternoon in an exciting race with
Jennie Taylor, champion girl relay race
rider of Arizona. The time will be
computed when the second race is run
tomorrow afternoon. The riders started
in front of the grandstand, with the
crowd on edge, and changed horses
every quarter mile.
The bulldogging Of wild steers proved
a great entertainer. To the steers was
given a 30-foot start and the catch
ing and throwing of the animals were
big struggles Nine entrants partici-
pated in the preliminary bucking con-
test, the results of which are to be com
pleted in tomorrow's contests. In the
bucking contest the fence was a stop
ping place for two riders, who sus-
tanned minor injuries. The regular pa
rade of the Roundup will be held to-
morrow morning. The merchants of
Independence viii vie with one anothcrl
in decorating contest in the parade.
Patriotism is to reign in the parade,
and long list of prizes is offered for
displays. Scores of people, young and
old, made merry tonight at dancing on
the street, while the Independence and
Monmouth bands entertained the
crowds. The warm weather today
seemed no barrier to the growing
crowds.

THE ANSWER SATISFACTORY

The administration must be pleased at the response
made by the American people to the call for money to
finance the war Two billion asked and three bill
ions the Not only this but as the time for
closing the subscription neared the banks in most of the
larger cities were crowded with applicants ebowng each
other to get their money in At Chicago which had al
ready subscribed three hundred millions, there were
crowds at the banks dense to interfere with their
handling and at when the doors closed hundreds
were shut out
Inc TACT that this response made before the peo
pie of America had felt the sting of war augurs well
to what will be done when boys meet the enemy
and some of them have paid the first toll of with
their lives When American blood is spilled on the soil of
France and the is brought home to us in all its ter
ribleness, there will be thrilling story. Then
Americans will put up their money the last dollar and
they will not have to be urged to do so.
When General Pershng aned in London the Ger
press sneered and wanted to know if this was some
more Yankee bluff" is probable they will also speak
sneerngly of Americans being willing to put up their
money, but that they will not fight If putting up the
money is bluff it must be admitted that is pretty
solid one. 1t be added that if Germany raises it she
will be called 1t might be further added that if she
thinks Americans will not fight she has the surprise of
her life coming when her armies meet the boys in khaki
She will learn then that America backs her hand whether
she is bluffing or not.
