LIVE ONES AND DEAD ONES

1t is all very well for business man to sit idly by
and gather the shekes from the passing trade that
brought his city by the efforts of else, long
it lasts but it happens that like all good things
there is end to it.
With the constant growth Of place, ii is but
binary instance for other business who do not sit
still to be drawn there to venture their business ability
against the men who already installed.
If the business men have kept themselves before the
public by the judcious use OF advertising they have
nothing to fear from the incoming competitors for the in
habtans of their section of the that there
snch and just what they able to supply chem
with.
But the other hand if they have ignored the posi-
btes Of keeping pace with the time by advertising il
is but short time until the who have cOme
the possibilities overlooked by the already here and
hasten advertise that they may the lead
gotten by their competitors by the fact of having sit
down little pile Of merchandise and waited for the
trade to come to them.
1t doesn't take long for live TO catch up with
dead and then hear them Il can't how
the people patrOnZe the corners, when have been
here all of these years. But they do do it, guess for
the mere reason, that nobody likes dead one

DISCOVERY DAY cELEsRATEO
AT ST. DAVID
,By Special Representative

Just sixty years ago on the cath
day of July. 1857. when the MONDAY
sun was AT meridian height. the pion,
eer. Brigham Young. arrived on the
summit Of the mountains overlooking
the valley. which is now the wonder
uul city of Salt Lake. On that day
he first glimpsed the siivery surface
Of the Great Salt Lake. which shown
like great mirror. and there twas.
that he with his people founded their
permanent home. Yesterday at ST.
David, was celebrated the occasion
of that discovery, and the good peo-
pie OF that little settlement spent
the day in service and thanksgiving.
Various sports were INDUCED in
and the ST. David boys certainly do
know how to welcome and entertain.
The vast throng from Bisbee, Benson.
Tombstone and all neighboring towns
were loud in their praise of the good
time enjoyed
The basket ball game between the
Benson and ST. David boys was won
by the Benson team. The ball game
which was very exciting. was also
won by the Benson team. Two Of
TombstOne's Star ball players took
part in the ball game assisting the
ST. David team, and the way Frank
Sanders and Joe Carpena tore around
the bases for the home run series.
was indeed inspiring. Sanders
grabbed of about eight miles Of race
track for the amusement of the spec
tatOrs. in vain efforts TO get some
one to race with him. all to no avail.
The bronchO busting was very
good. Chip" young fellow pc
Snapped" and with f1aring red ban.
dana wound around his neck, went
astride one OF Pink Murry's mus
tanes and while Chip" pulled ieath.
er at the start, he finally got the
broncho under control. The ladies'
harness race was won by Miss Bisbee.
The young lady hitched a team of
work horses. (placing the harness on
the team TO a farm wagon and drove
distance OF Two hundred and fifty
yards. in exactly five minutes, de-
feating her opponent by Twenty-Five
seconds.
A big barbecue was taken care of
by the thrOng. and many who came
hungry went away well satisfied,
The day was brought to a close with
dance, where the young and old
alike tripped the light fantastic to
the strains OF melodious harmony
which only can be produced by Tomb
stones Peerless Mexican Orchestra.
The day is one that will be long
remembered by all who took part in
the celebration and St David is to
be congratulated for the masterful
way the committee of arrangements
handled the program of events.
