Crowds Here First Day
Although the celebration did not be-
gin until 2:3O this afternoon, when the
program was opened with the big
roundup and wild west show on the
fair grounds, the people began coming
in from the country and from other
towns during the forenoon, and by
noon there was a>good sized crowd in
the city, and when the show opened
at 2:3O there was a throng at the fair
grounds. Tomorrow, it is predicted,
the crowd will be the largest ever seen
in Moscow, the attractions for the day
and evening being sufficient to draw
people from all over the Palouse and
Lewiston countries.
$50 Horses Here
The roundup at the fair grounds,
with it's many wild west features, is
practically equal to the great annual
Pendleton roundup. Fred Adams, the
manager, states that the attractions
are greater than at first expected, |

come who we're at first uncertain as
to whether they could be here or not |
