some of the worlds best talent.
In the n and one-half mile re-
lay race first place was won by
Irwin, second Walters, third Sawyer,
the purse being $50. $50 and SO.
In the last event, the wild horse race
which is always one of the best
events in the whole show, first place
was won by Howard Burgess, sec
ond Dave Campbell, third Floyd
Sitting.
One OF the feature events and
probably the best of the features was
the jumping over of a Hudson car
(top DOWN by Bonnie Grey on her
$4,000 High School horse. The
young lady went back about fifty
yards and started the horse toward
the cart took the jump as prettily
as it could have been made, the
horse did not touch the car. Bonnie
Grey was the one who with her white
buckskin outfit made the hit OF the
afternoon with her valuable horse.
Another great favorite Of the af-
ternoon was Clown Ed Wright on his
rs cen mule. He kept the crowd
in an uproar most OF the afternoon
but while he was playing clown he
got off some Of the %cleverest fea-
lures Of the afternoon. To take this
part a man must know the work and
he must have lots Of nerve-Ed
Wright had both OF these require
ments. He added rs percent 70 the
afternoons show.
The Indians came in with their
share Of the entertainment when
they gave their Indian var dance In
front OF the stand, the Bucks and
the Squaws and children taking part.
The flying CIRCUS was smother
great event Of the afternoons per-
Torrance. The plane made several
loops with n man setting on tho top
wing of the machine; this same
gentleman crawled over the wings Of
the plane while 1t vas in motion. he
hung by his knees from an extended
ladder and from a bar on the lower
side Of the plane. The only fault
to find with this feature was that
most OF the people in the grand
stand were unable to see all OF his
stunts for instead OF performing a
distance in front of the stand the
plane was. part OF the time. almost
directly over the stand.
As stated. this is the largest and
o expensive rodeo that has ever
been staged in Carbon county and
much credit is due the Chamber of
Commerce. /. w. Dinsmore. Gus
Fleischli. II. Dunlap and other men

NO BASEBALL
GAME AUG. II
WITH SUPERIOR

Because Of an auto breakdown on
the other side OF Wamsutter. the
Superior baseball team was unable
to reach Rawlins In time last Sunday
afternoon to play the game they had
scheduled with Rawlins. There was
a fair sized crowd at the field and
all of them were prepared to see a
fast game. thus 1t was n disappoint-
ment when the Superior team failed
to show up on the diamond. Ar
engagements have not been made to
play this team ut n later date but II IL
hoped that a game may be scheduled
later in order that the Rawlins team
may have n chance to again chow
the Rawlins fans their baseball play
ing ability In beating fast teams.
A practice game was played Sun
day afternoon. when the word reach
ed here that the Superior team would
not arrive. between the Rawllns team
and n pickup cam. As Is always
the case. considerable unintentional
comedy was seen In the practice
game and the fans were repaid for
their trip to the field.

been made of late by the use OF the

way between Fourth and Fifth

considerably this week. much to the
pleasure OF the autoing public.

siderable work done on the highway

this otherwise bad stretch OF road
In n first class condition. There were
several inches OF sand covering this
section OF the highway for n consider
able distance. which made II rather
difficult for many OF tho cars pass

the hill without difficulty. Teams
have bono working on this section OF

is due to additional patents
on land which were issued during
the later part OF 1928 and the early
part of 1924. Despite this increase
in land acres there was a decrease
in the valuation on land of S19,7SS,
caused by a reduction in the valu-
alton placed on fenced pasture land

FILIPINO SOLDIERS STRIKE
FOR WAGE INCREASE

MahiIa.-A number OF Filipino sOr-
diers of the Fifty-seventh infantry
have refused to perform duty. It is
reported a b~Olshevistic organization
has been formed among them. Eight
arrests were made.
The refusal to perform duty resulted
from a raid carried out July 5, on a
small group Of Philippine scouts, all
Of whom are FlIipinOs, at Fort Nc
Kinley. Another result Of the raid is
that all the FilipinOs OF duty there are
suspected OF ~bOIshevistic activities.
The military authorities believe the
infantrymen cOnstrue their action, as a
~peaceable strike to obtain increased
pay and allowances. These are less
in the case of Filipino soldiers than for
white soldiers. The raid resulted
from information reaching officers
that a ~bOlshevist secret organization
was being formed among the troops

ventiOn Of the Socialist party Of Amer
lea July Z formally enlisted under the
la Toilette presidential banner. II
adopted a report offered by q majority
of a committee Of Is, recommending
that the convention concur In the ac-
ton Of the Conference for Progressive
Political Action i'm indOrsing the La
Toilette candidacy on his platform.
The action came after a six-hOur de-
bate I'm which 80 Of the 157 delegates
in the convention took part. 1t was
conducted under strict rules. each side
being given ID minutes to start and
finish the discussion and miscellaneous
delegates being allowed five minutes
each. Two exceptions were made to
this, Alexander Calm, editor Of a
Jewish newspaper, and Daniel HOan,
mayor Of Milwaukee, being given
double time.
Eight of the speakers argued for a
minority report. which would have re-
suited In a separate Socialist national
ticket and platform and three spoke
for a substitute, which would have ac-
cepted The majority idea with reserva-
lions as TO the vice presidency.
BY adopting the majority report the
convention cOncurred not only in La
FOllette's Endorsement, but also in last
weeks conference decision to postpone
a vice presidential nomination until
after the Democratic convention.
