THE EAGLE SPREOS HER WINGS And Nportsc-fAU Descriptions Enter lalned The Assembled Thrones. It was a great day for the race we mean the human race when John Han cock and the rest of those immortals attached their signatures to the great document declaring the thirteen colonies to I "free and independent states," and the century and a quarter that has elapsed since that date has only served to emphasize and magnify the wisdom ol the fathers of this Republic. Th anniversary of the great event was celebrated very generally t!iroghut this county, from Scappoosc to Clatska- nie, and from the Columbia to the Neha lem. The eagle flew and the orators orated, and the reader of the Declaration of Independence tried her best to be heard above the roar of the combustibles and the yells of the small boy. The pro grams were so remarkably similar that a repetition of them would be monotonous. Beginning at Scappoosc the orator ot the day was Dr. H. R. Cliff, of St. Hel ens, and they do say that the doctor made a great hit. There was all kinds of sport, including horse racing, and a match game of base ball between Scap poosc and St. Helens, in which our boys 'put it all over" the Scappooses and their Portland men to the tune of 10 to 4, much to the surprise of all. The feature of the game was the work of the St. Helens battery, with Bert McKibben pitching and Henry McKibben catch ing. In the evening there was a dance at Watts and Price's hall, the crowd being too large for the room. At Warren the celebration was under the ausoiees of the Warren band. It was held in the grove just west of the Noon place, and the attendance was mainly local, though a few were present from St. Helens. The orator of the day was to have been Prof. Seeley, of Albina, but as he did not appear, the editor of the Mist was called pon and made few remarks. The Declaration was read by Mrs. F. M. Hoyt, in a clear and intel ligent manner. There were foot races, potato race, and a tug of war between the band bovs and the members of the local camp Woodmen of the World, re sulting in a victory for the former, after a very interesting struggle. From Rainier a grand good Unit is re ported in every respect. The orator of the day was Hon. Dell Stuart, of Port land, and those who were present say he did full justice to the occasion. Ctatskanie's orator was J. H. Collins and we are sure the people of Clatskanie listened to an able and scholarly ad dress, such as Professor Collins is fully capable of delivering. A participant in forms us that in addition to the popula tion of the city fully five hundred visitors were present, The pupils of the Lower Nehalem country celebrated in a beautiful grove near Deep Creek. It was a joint cele bration of the citizens of several adjacent communities, and was thoroughly en iovable. The county seat furnished the orator of the occasion in the person of Mr. W. U. Powell, who delivered a masterly address on the glory and pro gress tfk our country. And Vernonia was not behind hand. The loj-al citizens of that community enjoyed the Nation's holiday to the fullest extent and sports and literary exercises were tle order of tho. day. The orator was a native son of the Nehalem, Mr. Omar Spencer, son of our old friend, Israel Spencer. He gave his neighbors an address that testi6cd to both his pat- nA his culture. He is one ot the young men of Columbia county who has been fitted by education and home training to fill any position of trust or honor to which he may be called. Columbia couuty may well be rjroud of the manner ii which the great day was celebrated. So far as this county is concerned, it was eminently a "sane" Fourth of July.

ST. LOUIS, July 6. The Democratic National Convention today listened to an extended speech frem Represeniative John Sharp Williams, its temporary chair man, appointed the committaes necessary tt rriWt a neTmnnent areanization, and - - . - - j odiourned. In a session lasting two hours and fifty minutes one striking inci dent overshadowed all other proceedings. That was the enthusiastic and prolonged cheering which greeted the name of Gro- ver Cleveland. While the outburst which greeted the name of the Democratic ex- President before its last syllable had lanes from the lips of the temporary chairman was noticeable in itself, it was magnified by contrast with the greeting accorded the actual persons of men who stood for all that has been opposed by Mr. Cleve land and within tb party during the last eight years. James K. Jones, of Arkansas, cnairman of the National Committee, went upon the platform and took his seat unnoticed. Practically no greeting was given mm when he faced the convention with gavel in hand. There were other stalwart lieu tenants of the Nebraskan who entered the hall nnacclaimed, and,, lastly, Mr. Bryan himself, who, for the first time ihirinor two national campaigns, was greeted with silence. APPLAUSE FOR BRYAN BUT A RIPPLE. Eieht minutes after the gavel fell the twice-named candidate of his party passed in at the main entrance and sought his seat unheralded and unheeded. A tew moments later he arose and pushed his way to, a seat nearer the aisle, where, standing a moment to give greeting to friends, he was caught sight of and ap plauded. But the measure of applause was but a ripple when compared to the storm called forth by Cleveland's name. Listening attentively to the Democratic doctrine laid down by Mr. Williams, the conservatives found occasion for the first demonstration when reference was made to the record of ex-President Cleveland.. All the shackled party interest which had lain donna.it through two national con ventions was released as by the touch of a trineer. The name of Cleveland was echoed from a thousand throats. Hats, handkerchiefs, fans, and arms waved, and delegates and spectators stood on their chairs and the last semblance of or der was turned into confusion which rnnwntion officials were powerless to subdue. BRYAN FOLLOWIJfG IS HISSED. Will Mx outburst was at its height, Mr. Bryan's following attempted to con vert the demonstration into applause for their leader. The name of Bryan was yelled lustily, but in vain. Shouting of. "Grover" and "Cleveland'1 was renewed and the Bryan following was hissed. The greatest significance was attached to the showing- made by the consent tives. Their absolute control of the con nniinn is no longer doubted, even by those who have heretofore declined to be ( AAnmnmi.

The BCtioaof Ohio last night, closely following Pennsylvania's declaration for the New York jurist, and the bandwagon tendency displayed by other delegations which had been counted in the anti-Park-ar ranks, had a telling effect upon the opposition.

President Roosevelt is conimoujy re garded as an absolutely fearless man, and has proved his courage on many ana A'wm occasions. But it appears that there is. ono terror before which Mr. Roosevelt quails. He let slip that fact in a Catherine of newspaper men at the executive office on the day of his nomi nation. "1 hope," said the president, looking about anxiously as he passed around a box of cigars when the glori ous but not wholly unexpected news was flashed from Chicago, "I hope Came Nation won't hear Q(.th"' That Carrie Nation will hear of it must be set down to a clear breach of confi dence on the part of the recipients of the cigars. No doubt these gentlemen felt that their duty to their papers was para mount, and their chance discovery of the Que thing the president is afraid of was certainly worth publishing. Mr. Roosevelt has faced many perils and trala without flinching. He has fought the battle of honest government uirainst Tammany toughs and heelers in New Yqr.k, primaries; he has. busted j Hay making is the order of the day around these parts.
