Cherries by Drayload Are Bought by Jack Crowe. BY ADDISON BENNETT. SALEM. Or, June 27. (Special.) In the third day of the first year of the reign of Queen Anne VI, which was also and likewise the last day of her peaceful and prosperous Queening, there was incubating right by the side of her throne a revolution fathered, or rather mothered, by another claimant for the throne, the illustrious Anne Royal, more often spoken of as Royal Anne. Some who have not the fear of God in their hearts or tha love of fialem in their souls go so fir as to jay that Anne Royal and her fellow conspira tors. Lady Bing, the Duchess of Lam bert and their Black Republican cohort, came here from Polk County. They also go farther, or perhaps further, and r that if Polk and Yamhill were wiped off the map there would be no but what is the use of denying to Salem the right to hold a cherry fair if she chooses? I am reminded Dy jac rowo, who Kits at mv side dictating this let ter, I am reminded, by a kick on the shins, that Salem is the only city in Oregon, except Portland, where the population ran into five figures at the last census. And, furthermore, that when it comes to cherries xne oaiein cherries are the best on earth. 1000 Founds Consumed. Then Jack went out and bought an other drayload and set them out in the lobby for the use and benefit of bis guests, who thus far in the engagement have consumed 1900 pounds of Lamberts and Royal Annes since Thursday morn ing. Fearful that I would not believe more than 600 pounds of the story Jack called in Mayor Steeve, ex-Mayor Rodg ers, Bob Hendricks and John Cradle baugh to vouch for the truthfulness of the statement. Those four in certain cases might prove an alibi for Jack, but as vouchers for his truth and ver- CButthis has nothing to do with the arrival of the Rosarians and their greeting by their fellow white-suited brethren, the Cherrians. The Cherrlans, you understand, hail from the Cherry City, which Is Salem; the Rosarians, including Dr. Cornelius, who did not know Salem was a dry town until well, as I was about to remark, the Rosarians came up from Portland to the tune of 100 in their white suits, and. Suffering Peter, how they set the hearts of the Salem ladies aquiver! But I mention no names, some of those cutting the most ice being respectable married men when at home. But of course, the Salem Cherry Carnival comes to a head only once a year, and Salem being a dry town, a very dry town, so derned dry that I don't be lieve at this minute there are a half dozen bathtubs full of beer In the whole, town, in the whole blooming town. Great Time Is Bad. All of which goes to show that the Rosarians and the Cherrians are hav ing a barrel of fun, mostly at the ex pense of the Cherrians. For it is about as difficult to get a Rosarian to loosen up as it is for, for remember I am now speaking of dry towns. It may be different where there is a wetness on the surface or where the Sheriff winks the other eye, or farther away from Miss Hobbs. Just across from Jack Crowe's cara vansary, sometimes called The Marlon, there is one of the most wonderful dis plays of cherries ever seen. Never In any other state was the exhibit even approached, which is drawing it mild when we remember that the Oregon cherry Is the finest on earth. No need to attempt to prove that statement; it proves itself. This year the Salemites, who include the Cherrians, have been specially fortunate In weather condi tions to have the cherries just right at the right time. Last week, even last Monday, would have been too early; next week, even next Monday, would be too late. All this may lead you to think that all we are doing is eating cherries, which I will admit Is our chief amuse ment but how about the motorcycle races at the fair grounds, the ball game, boat races, the dances, the ban quets and the merrgo-rounds, the Ferris wheels, the sideshows, inside and out? Visitor May Knmber 10,000. These would not amount to much If It were not for the great mass of peo ple in attendance. Every train, every boat, every well, people have come any way possible to get here. I will bet there are 1000 out-of-town autos here and every one of them brought about as many people as it could carry. I saw one seven-passenger car come down State street with eight adults and ten kiddies in it, or on It If I was told that there are right at this min ute 10,000 guests in the town I would not dispute it. But I would dispute loud and long any statement averring that even one of these guests had failed In having a good time or had failed to receive the best of treatment from the Salemites. Salem is not, as figures reveal, an awful large city. It is true It is easily the second city in Oregon. But there are no bisger-hearted people on earth than the Salem people. (Here George Uy land suggests that I say something about the lovely Salem ladies and Bill Hanley chips in and says, "make it Btrong"). So I will merely suggest that the Salem ladies are as noted for their loveliness as the Salem cherries are for their flavor and size. Which is the best I can do, George and Bill, until the returns are all in. ELECTRIC PAGEANT IMPRESSIVE Revel In Street Marks End of Capital City's Celebration. SALEM, Or.. June 27. (Special.) Balem's sixth and greatest Cherry Fair came to a close tonight. Its climax Was an impressive electric parade, depicting the development of, Oregon. Fun was fast; and furious all day, and there was not a person among the thousands who thronged the streets that did not de clare the festival a glorious success. Royal Rosarians, of Portland, mem bers of their families and their friends, arrived in the city on a special train at 2 o'clock In the afternoon and joined in the f unmaking. Much of the credit for the success of the grand finale is due to them. They paraded the streets with the Cherrians, saw the motor cycle races at the State Fair grounds, were guests of the Commercial Club at a buffet luncheon, and in the evening the uniformed Rosarians. 100 strong. Including their band of 2 pieces, were a feature of the electric parade. The Cherrians were tie quests of the Ko- I f 'A"' f L-Z'fk Hk -J Jtfefe; - U A r:-rpj i aas.' y -..... , wt..ivt......... 1 ' 1 jerf j( TOP PIRST FUZB BNTEY, BABT BABY sarians during the Rose Festival and they came home singing the praises of their hosts. So, too, the Portland men will return home lauding the Cherrians, for all said they never had a better time. City Shown to Be TSo Laggard. While it was not to be expected that there would be as many floats in the Salem electric parade as there were in the one during the Rose Festival, there were sufficient to prove that the cap ital city is no laggard. "Solitude of the Forest" was a float depicting the early days of the state. An Indian in a forest in moonlight was the scene. Another, "The Coming of Jason Lee and His Missionaries," was an impressive creation. It showed Lee and his band stepping rrom a canoe to the shore of the Willamette. "Winning of the Land" was one of the prettiest and most ' Impressive floats. It depicted the clearing of land, the plowing and the harvesting. The greatest crowd of the carnival was on the streets as Queen Ann VX in her royal conveyance illumined with myriad lights, came riding by. Her reign of three days was at an end. She had steDDed into her conveyance to go away. The float was entitled "Going Away of Cherrydom." . Spanish War Vetexams Shown.- A scene showing Spanish-American war veterans returning from the Phil ippines was Interesting and appropriate. for the veterans of that war closed a three days' reunion In the city tonight The Knights of Pythias, United Arti sans and other organizations were rep resented with brilliantly lighted floats, and, last but not least, came the car emblematic of the festival entitled "The Glory of the Cherry.". It was a cherry tree bending from the weight ox its many clusters the apotheosis, of the Marion County orchard. Other features of the parade were men on norseoacit representing pioneers, a Woodmen of the World drill team, the Rosarian band, the Cherrlan band, sons of Spanish-Ameri can war veterans' drum corps, heralds and others. - Revel Ends Festival. With the disbanding of the parade, Queen Ann and her suite were escorted to the dlas at the corner of Fort and Liberty streets. A grand march was led by the king and queen, the Ro sarians and Cherrians falling in be hind. A two-step, participated in by the Rosarians and Cherrians, followed, and then the crowd joined in a revel which continued until midnight. The Rosarian special was met at Chemawa by a committee of Cherrians consisting of Frank Durbin, T. C. Smith, Jack Crowe, F. C. Deckebach, George F. Rodgers and J. R. Linn. Clusters of cherries, giving them the freedom of the city, were pinned on the lapels of the visitors. Water sports tonight consisted or log rolling contests, a motorboat race, canoe tilting, a tug-of-war, with- two motorboats to a side; a consolation mo torboat race, aqua plane sport and swimming races.

TARIFF LAW DENOUNCED Restoration of Good Times by Change XJrgedDr. Withyoombe Advocates Co-operationOregon Officials Cbarged With High Taxes. SALEM, Or, Jnne 27. (Special.) Charging the Democratic National Ad ministration with destroying the mar kets for the farmers and other pro ducers, and being responsible for pres ent unsettled business conditions, and blaming Democratic state officials for the Increase In state taxation, the Marion County Republican Central Committee, in a platform adopted to day, started a campaign which it is believed will result in increased Re publican majorities in this county. The platform recommends that state taxation be limited to 2 mills, and that the marion County delegation in the Legislative Assembly pledge Itself to oppose the creating of new offices and to lend its aid in having boards and commissions consolidated. Dr. James Withycombe, Republican nominee for Governor, urged united action, and declared that as Governor he would do everything in his power to cut down the expense of govern ment where it was apparent curtail ment was necessary. He said the meet ing of the committee was one of the most enthusiastic he had ever attend ed and that it augured for victory in November. Market Destruction Denounced. The platform in part follows: "We condemn the policies of the Democratic party, which under the present Administration, as in every past period when that party has been in power, has resulted in destroying the markets for the farmer and pro ducer as well as opportunities for em ployment of labor and benefited other countries at the expense of the citi zens of the United States. "We condemn the Underwood tariff law as producing neither revenue nor prosperity, and for having utterly failed to preserve a just equilibrium between agriculture, manufacture, for estry and mining, throwing away the protective principle and leaving the disadvantage with our country. "After 10 years of unbroken pros perity for the farmer and laborer we are now under a Democratic Adminis tration facing an adverse balance of trade. Under Republican rule we were selling the world each year about 1500,000,000 more merchandise and products of the soil than we were buying from it. Free Trade Held Destructive. "The Underwood tariff is turning the trade of the world against us, free trade destroying the home market to benefit foreigners without compen sating benefits. For the first time in many years in May 1914 our merchan dise imports exceeded merchandise ex ports by $6,230,814. In sharp contrast with this, in May, 1913, before the Democratic tariff was enacted, our for eign trade balance was more than $60,000,000 in our favor, exports from our country exceeding Imports $61, 126,621. "Only by the election of a Republi can Congress and a Republican Presi dent, standing upon well-known, time tried and fundamental Republican principles can our commercial suprem acy be restored, and the fallacy of a Democratic tariff that affords neither protection nor funds to run our Gov ernment be exposed and overthrown. "In our state administration Demo cratic rule has increased state taxes by unwarranted experiments and ex travagant expenditures In carrying out policies of ' sentlmentallsm and sensa tionalism. Redaction In Bills Urged. "In the interest of necessary develop ment of the resources of our state and to afford better opportunities for the employment of labor, we recommend the following to the Marion County delegation in the Legislature: "That in both houses of tne uenerai Assembly as soon as organization is complete resolutions hard and fast be adopted allowing no member to intro duce more than five bills, and no com mittee but the committees on appro priations and revision of laws to bring in more than one bill, and all these within the first 20 days, except bills for the repeal of laws which are now like leeches sucking the life blood out of the taxpayers and those trying to foster industriea "We approve the early opening of tne free locks and canal at Oregon City, and all efforts for the improvement of our rivers and harbora "We aDDrove the careful business government of our county affairs and recommend mat tne iegisiaiure enact. law to place a limit on county tax levies." - VANCOUVER LEAGUE ADDED Stop, Look, 'Listen Organization Chooses Clarke County Officers.
