More Entries for the Fair.

Promise of keen competition in
Scoops animal show at the Fair be-
came apparent during this week when
it became known that Sam Aronhalt,
Oakland, and Billy Smith, of Hoyes,
were both going to enter their trained
mountain pussies," in hopes Of get
ting the grand prize. At present it
is thought that Sam has the advan-
tage on Billy because he has so many
more from which to pick the prize
winner, as Crook Crest is known as
the amphitheatre for their nightly
meetings From this rendezvous they
spread good cheer and whatnot.
Billy, nevertheless, is optimistic,
and says that Hoyes has the quality,
if not the quantity, that Crook Crest
has.
Col. Bell has already declined to be
the judge.
Anothery Entry Promised
On Friday, the thirteenth, the ami
NAL pictured in the following snap
shot, showed up at Scoops office, and
since no one has claimed it, Scoop
has decided to enter it among his col
lections at the Fair.
A booklet on what the black cat has
done, why it crosses the road in front
of one, and full explanation of the
reason for it's existence and effect on
superstitious people will be compiled
by Col. Bell, and sold on the grounds
at cost. All bad luck can be averted
by subscribing for The Republican,

Many people still do not appreciate
how little it costs to own Chevro-

Chevrolet Six for practically the

you would expect to make for any

better than 20 miles to the gallon

Too Cold to Squat Long

Squatters have been complaining
about the cold weather and rainy
spell during the past week, and as
much as they dislike to get on the
move, they feel that something just
has to be done. If they can't squat
and be dry and warm, they won't
squat. So they decided to join hands
with the %malgamated Society for
the Prevention Of Work and hold a
big square dance, goose step and tur-
key trot, on the Court House Lawn.
They figured this would keep them
warm without looking too much like
work. The details of this will be
worked out next week, as we'll as hav-
ing the date of the celebration fixed.
The fiddlers, fgure-caller, and keepers
Of law and order will all be named
next week in addition to a number of
other important positions.
The dance will be open to all, and
not just to the cold squatters. AL
ready, in anticipation of the event
James Fazzalari, Bill Gibson, Charles
Tower, Reese Friend, Doc. Kercheval
and Bill Butts are in training. Col
Bell took snap shot of Fazzalari,
Tower and Kercheval as they tried
to bring in little aesthetic dancing

1t appears that two local fisher
men were having poor luck whipping
Meadow Mountain Run when one sug-
gested that the bait be soaked in
some of the "snake-bite medicine"
that had been found along the bank.
This was tried, and at the first cast
the rod bent nearly double, and it
took the combined efforts of the two
sportsmen to reel in the prize.
Then it was discovered that the
worm had seized big fish by the
throat and was choaking it. This is
vouched for by Harry Mickey and
jim Painter, but they say they
weren't the two who did the fshin'.)

Crippled teams will take the
floor when Tech and Business
clash tomorrow afternoon in
the new Tech High gym at
3:15 O'Clock. Injuries have
visited Tech while Business
has been hit by graduations
and scholastic barriers. East
ern and Western lock arms in

stirring clashes are expected.
Tech High, needing victory to in
sure a tie for the championship,
will be minus Capt Jack Goldblatt,
who twisted his ankle against Cen
trail Tuesday. Everett Johnson
who injured his hip in the Western
tiff Friday, will start at forward,
but his injury may handicap him.
Business, knowing win over
Tech may possibly merit tie for
the basketball crown, must go into
action without acting-captain jake
Lewis, Lester Singman and Morris
Denniberg.
The Stenographefs will be at
q greater disadvantage than the
Manual Trainers as acting cap
tain JalIie Lewis, the hub of the
Business team, will be on the
sidelines. He is the most val
liable player to his team in the
series and Business is leader
less without Lewis.
Business players have tremen
dous courage with Lewis playing
and their morale cracks if he is
missing. jake has an aggressive
nature that impels his mates to fol
low example and has already
proven himself the greatest player
in the series in this connection.
Maybe. he could be called the best
player, without fear of challenge.

possible. They have disapproved Of the
epithets which certain Of the Repub-
lican ''old guard" have used toward the
Progressive Republicans of the West.
This in itself is high crime in the view
Of the Democrats, whose only hope in
the elections for Congress next year
and perhaps in the national election in
1892, is q serious division among the
Republicans.
The suggestion has come from the
young guard" that the tariff bill be
put through with the present indus
trial rates, under existing law, remain
ing practically unchanged, granting q
few increases where industries, such as
the textile industry, have actually been
meeting killing foreign competition, and
allowing all the proposed agricultural
increases. This. in large measure, con-
forms to the recommendations to Con-
gress by President Hoover. But this
suggestion apparently has met with the
disapproval OF the Progressive Repub-
licans, who have Joined In the "coali-
ton" with the Democrats.
The pathway of the young guard"
seemingly today is strewn with thorns.
That was to be expected. Twenty-four
Senators banded together with q single
ness Of purpose is bloc that must be
reckoned with seriously in the long run.
They have taken stand, which will
be approved by the country. for the
passage Of the tariff bill in some form
before the close Of the special session
of Congress. The Republican Progress
sives are willing, apparently, to drive
ahead as fast as possible with the bill.
II the Democrats will exhibit the same
kind of cooperation, much may yet
be done with the tariff bill before the
session closes. If the Senate debate
could be freed from extraneous and
funny" speeches for the next ten days
the country might see the final DISPOSE
ton OF the tariff bill by the Senate and
its transference to the conference stage

rather more free Of "faults" than are
some other parts of the world. Yet
there are several Of these lines Of cleav-
age, or zones of slipping in readjust-
rnent. One of these lies along the
Pacific Coast of the United States, and
has caused much trouble, in recent years
has led to disaster. There are some
along the Atlantic Coast. One of them
about thirty years ago gave birth, as
1t were; to the Charleston e rthuuake
One of the well defined faults roughly
parallels the Atlantic Coast, extending
in a southwesterly direction from the
neighborhood of Labrador. 1t is called
the Fundian Fault. 1t has given q good
deal of trouble in the past, through
earthquakes. New England has suffered
some 200 shocks in a little less than
500 years, Of which twelve were severe,
though none has ever been disastrous
in effects November IS, ITS, the
heaviest Of all in recorded history
occurred, bringing down some l,4OO
chilnneys and causing panic in several
communities but taking no lives.
Yesterday, by strange coincidence,
exactly 154 years from that record
shock, another occurred in the zone Of
the Fundian Fault, throughout New
England and in Eastern Canada and
New Brunswick. 1t lasted for more
than an hour. No particular damage
was done. It was just another Of the
long series of "temblors" that this area
has felt from the beginning Of history
on this continent. \
There is no occasion for alarm on
the score Of the instability of the earth
in this region. OF course no one can
foretell happenings of this kind. The
earth may, after many centuries of COM
parative quietude, suddenly develop
streak of severe uneasineSs along the
line of the heaviest population. That
would be disastrous In the highest de-
gree. But just because of yesterdays
settlement along the Fundian Fault, the
latest of series of uncounted hundreds
and perhaps thousands, no one should
feel the least anxiety. It avails nothing
to be frightened Of force that cannot
be measured or forecast.
