Masdn Counties

Although the Farmers excursion
to Puyallup comes in the midst of
haying time, the prospects are that
more than 500 farmers will attend
the Western Washington State fair
on Thursday, July 81, which has
been set aside as the special day for
Thurston and Mason counties, ac-
cording to E. B. Stookey, county agri-
cultural agent. The farmers are
very much interested in this annual
event and many of them have made
point to attend religiously every
year. In addition those who missed
the fair last year are dOubly anxious
to make amends for lost opportunity
Last year one day was set aside
for Grays Harbor, Mason and Thurs
ton counties, but the crowd coming
from these three counties actually
swamped the management. Conse-
quently system of grouping large
county with a small county was
adopted to relieve the congestion.
From present expectations the fair
grounds will be we'll filled on Thurs
day.

leaders hoped however that the fall OF
beginning of the final round in the

Soldier bonus amendments still
had the right of way. The bills to be
acted upon were those by Senators
Simmons, Democrat, North Carolina,
and McKellar, Democrat, Tennessee,
proposing to use the interest on the
foreign debt to finance the bonus.
In urging his amendment Senator
Simmons said he believed il was the
intention Of President Harding to pay
the bonus out of the interest of the
foreign debt. This view was tanen
also by Senator McCumber OF Iowa.
Senator Lodge took the position that
the bonus should not be contingent
upon such an uncertain proposition.
when we pay the bonus we want
the payment to be a real payment.
This proposition under the pretense
of giving a bonus gives only an un-
lcertainty. No one can tell when we
will begin to get the interest on the
credit given to the foreign country.
We certainly are not going to use
force to collect it. The promise to pro-
vide bonus on this interest is prac-
tically giving the soldiers nothing"

he regarded as absurd the proposal

tax. He declared the business of the
