Takes Up Challenge
Turning dramatically from the
Jury to Doheny. Hogan pointed to
the elderly defendant and said:
'AI1d the law leaves you no remedy

h protected by the rules of the
court. "
Hogan then took up the prosecu-
ton challenge that the 100000
Doheny gave Fan was not loan
but bride.
"a bride is q corrupt and con-
temptible thing. Do you think these
two men who worked together with
pick and shovel and who have served
their Government so well would
stoop to defraud the Government?
''You heard that loyal-hearted,

die, l rely on you to carry out the
loan to my old friend FalD.'
''And this Philadelphia lawyer
has the temerity to challenge such
a thingr" said Hogan.
Hogan referred to the wartime
service of Doheny's son, who car
rfed the money to Fall. He called
attention to Falls service in the
Senate as a member of President
Harding's Cabinet.

What he called an invisible wit

completed his final arguments de-

Doheny.
This man was J. j. Cotter. Do

to Franklin Lane, Secretary of the
Interior under President Wilson.

The heaviest rain of the season fell
in this community Friday. For over

it is expected that it will be open

FAIR GROUNDS AT
PINE CITY IMPROVED
More Parking Space.-Big Dance
PaviIion.-Dates Of Pine County
Fair Set for Sept 13, Ia and Is.

The twenty-ninth annual Pine Coun-
ty Fair will be held at Pine City on
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
September Is, IA and IT,. Indications
are that this years fair will be even
bigger and better than last year, ac-
cording to w. S. McEachern, Pine
City, secretary.
Considerable improvements have
been made on the grounds, following
the purchase of right of way across
the southeast corner Of the grounds
by the State Highway Department
The deal included the purchase OF
about five acres of land adjoining the
north end of the fair grounds, which
was turned over to the fair associa-
ton.
A new race track was constructed
on the north side of the grounds, the
new track being forty feet in width.
Work of surfacing the track, was
started last week to have it in good
shape for the fair. The grandstand
was moved north to the new track,
and the exhibition building was also
moved north.
Good Parking Space.
The new grounds provide the finest
show grounds, for stands and amuse-
ments, of any fair in this part of the
state. The ground has been kept
moved by the golf club and is just
like a lawn. The new layout pro-
vides ample parking space, as cars
will now be parked on the south side
of the grounds, between the street
and the river bank. This is the space
that had been formerly used for show
purposes.
New Dance Pavilion.
The construction of the new $4,000
dancing pavilion will be a big asset
to the fair and will be big drawing
card for the night show. The pavil-
ion was constructed by private inter-
ests who leased land from the fair
association with the understanding
the association would have free use
of the pavilion during the fair days.
Plans are being made by the fair
management for big night show,
this year, and the dancing pavilion
will be one of the big attractions.
The night show will also include
seven big free acts which will be
staged in front of the grand stand.
These acts are all different and will
provide about two hour program.
Good Racing Program.
George Schmidt of Rock Creek, SUI
perintendent of the horse races, is
