HIOW many living men can squarely
I stand uo and honestly compare
themselves as the equal or supe
rior (in any way whatsoever) to
! rot Iron Chancellor of the
Hohenzollern's, who made Goethe's
dream of Germanic unity a realistic drama
of "iron and of blood?"
How many dare declare, "I have greater
brain power than he" "I have a stronger
body" "I am healthier" "I have a saner
knowledge" "I am more successful" or
"I have more force of character? "
Bismarck, during his marvelous career,
outwitted the most celebrated statesmen of
his time ; terrified the mightiest kings and
emperors; overthrew and conquered three
armed nations; and ruled over the empire
he created with enlightened and practical
wisdom for nearly half a century, dying at
the ripe old age of 89, famous throughout
the world as the "Grealat of the Germans."
Now, upon what nutriment was this
colossus fed that he grew so mighty ; what i
put the iron into his blood? This we know
that like all Germans he believed in good
eating and drinking, hence the juices of malt
and hbps were never absent from his table.
S a Leer of redoubtable
name and tame.
Healtn, strength and
vigor glows and sparkles in
every glass. Fifty years
ago "ye began to brew it.
Tor fifty years tbe most
fastidious nave pronounced
it witliout an equal in any
land. It is known from
cccr.n to ocean, from tbe
gulf to tbe lakes, and wher
ever Americans go for bus
xz.zz or health or pleasure
L.tdweiser is there.

The second annual horse show of
Baker county to a thing of the glori
ous past. Nature ism lied on the pro
moters of the great event and fur
nished a perfect day. Just such a one
as the people of the country delight to
celebrate. Bays the Baker City Dem-,
ocrat.
How many people were In the city?
No one knows, but they were here.
The merchants had no holiday, they
were busy from the early morning un
til the close of the stores In the eve
ning. Hpw many goods were sold?
Only the merchants know and they
are telling no secrets. It's enough to
know that there will be no holding
back when the next Horse show and
Market day comes around.
Promptly at 1 o'clock the parade
started at the lower end of Center
street, headed by the Baker City Con
cert band, followeA by an exhibition
of Percheron stallions, running and
trotting horses, Jacks and ponies.
William S. Levins mounted on a store
box, a la street vendor, called the
horses as they passed. He did It well
and to the satisfaction of the owners
and the crowd. After the parade
there was a wedding? No, there was
a bluff at a wedding, that's all, but It
satisfied the crowd that something
was doing.
After the parade and the announce
ments of the horses by Judge Levens,
there was an auction sale In front of
Kelly's implement house, conducted
by W. A. Gossott.
