All Is Ready For the 4th Laidlaw Band Coming: MISS MONNER FOR GODDESS Celebration Will Last From Sun rise to Sunrise Spectacular Fireworks Display At the last moment the ser vices of the Laidlaw Band have been secured to furnish music for the Madras celebration next Monday. This one feature was all that was lacking to make our celebration complete in ever' detail, and everyone at tending the festivities here are assured of hearing some splen did baud music. At the close of the contest of votes for Goddess of Liberty late Thursday night, there were some stirring moments. Miss Minnie Mcnner, of Agency Plains finally won the honor with a vote of 1101, over Miss Stella Baker who closed with 700. Miss Susie Cowherd was also a candidate, with 328 votes. A total sum of $218.90 was de rived from this contest. Fearing that Miss Monner might fail at the last momenta crowd of her friends made a sen sational rush for the voting place and cast in the neighbor hood of $50 worth of votes for her. The seats and stand for the morning exercises are being erected on the vacant lots in front of the Pioneer oQice. Everything is in readiness to have a glorious day from sun nee to sunrise of the following morning. Madras Fourth of July cele bration is moving along in line shape and irom the present in dicatlons it will easily be the biggist event ever aepn in this section. The program of sports is complete, and as soon as the Jiterary and musical exercises ore over the athletic fan can be assured that something will be doing all the time. The fourth of July oration will be delivered by G. Springer, one of the representative citizens of this section of the county. The literary program will be interspersed with songs and band music. The oration will be followed by a basket dinner. The parade promises to be unipue and many floats and other features will make it very attractive. The sports will commence at 1:30, the first number being the rock drilling contest. The Central Oregon Mercantile Com pany has fie red $5 additional to the first prizn of $5 for this contest. The Madras Trading Company with its usual pre ference for the girls is offering a prize of $5 for a cirls' foot race of COynrds. And as an ad ditional number for sports the Central Oregon Mercantile is also offering a prize of $5 for young ladies' pony race. A detailed list of the sports and prizes can be seen in the posters and in the Fourth of July ad. in the Pioneer. Commencing at b P. at. a grand ball will be given in San ford's hall, lasting throughout the night or as long as the dancers desire to continue. The last number on the pro gram is the monster display of tire works. This is a $1000 ex hibitiou and will easily be the biggest of the kind ever seen in Central Oregon. Visitors to Madras will make no mistake in remaining at night for the lire works, as they will be a sight well worth your time. Great Northern Wants Exhibits The Great Northern Railway Com pany has commenced the work of gather ing the specimens which are to be shown throughout the East in their exhibit cars and the other shows of the resour ces of Oregon which are to be located in several of the emigration centers, The following letter from F. W. Gra ham, Western Industrial and Immigrat ion Agent for the Great Northern has been received by Madras Commercial Club, asking the people of this district to assist in supplying specimens for the exibits. Commercial Club, Madras. Gentlemen: The Great Northern Railway Com pany are arranging to fit up an exhibi tion car containing nothing but fruit, vegetables and grain products of this state to be known as an Oregon car, This car will be sent on a long tour throughout the eartern states next fall and winter. The towns visited will be billed ahead like a circus would be and make one day stands in the various places. In the evenings a stereopticon lecture will be given in the local theatres or halls. The car will be visited by hundreds of thousands of people and the results direct and indirect will be very gratifying, we feel sure. We would like very much to have your locality well represented in this car. in audition to tne car exhibition, we have a large permanent exhibition room in St. Paul near union depot, which is thronged daily by people enroute west We have also just fitted up an exhibit room in Chicago and intend putting in exhibits in several other large eastern cities. Altogether we could use enough exhibits from you to make eight or ten sets. Whatever your locality excels in in way of fruits, grains or vegetables would suggest be furnished. We wish to secure a good line of fruits in jars on the limb, or in clusters. At present, strawberries, cherries and other berries are in season and we would like some fine Bings and Lamberts with just the stem on to fill some globe jars, also cherries on the branch. We have arranged with Mr. H. B. Wight, processor for the Portland Chamber of Commerce to do processing of our ex hibits. Please send in some strawberries and cherries in clusters and on limb as above. Send by express to Mr. H. B. Wight, G9 Fifth street care of Portland Chamber of Commerce and mark the boxes "For G. N. Ry. Exhibit" so that it can be kept separate from the exhibits, which the Chamber of Commerce are receiv ing. If you will prepay the express charges and mail receipted bill to me, I will reimburse you or you can bill collect to Mr. Wight, whichever is most convenient. Suggest you also accomp any each shipment with a letter to Mr. Wight stating what you are sending and that it is for the G. N. Ry's. exhibitions. Following is a partial list of the stuff we can use to good advantage: Peas on vine. Beans, yellow and green, on vine. Gooseberries on vine, Carrots with tops, Turnips with tops, Parsnips with tops, Celery in bunches, Corn with and without husks, Melons, water and mush, Onions, Cucumbers, Squash, Potatoes, Cauliflower, Tomatoes, red and yellow. As fast as the above come into season in addition to apples, pears, plums and other fruits, if you will send in some good large samples of each, Mr. Wight will process into the jura will be care fully marked showing where grown and hv whom furnished. Later on when alfalfa, timothy, wheat, oats, rye, ect are harvested, we wish to secure bundles of some of the tallest and best samples of each. If vou will accumulate a number of samples of the non-perishable products and advise me what you have, we will arrange to assemble it here in Portland and fit up the car here and use the bal ance m our several exhibit rooms. Just now, however, while the strawberries and cherry season is at its height, we wish vou would rush us in some of them. We are very anxious to make a fine display of Oregon fruits and will much appreciate your assistance and co-operation. President Hill has taken a great personal interest in the matter of exploting the resources of Oregon and tfeleive that in no other way can this be better accomplished than in Oregon car to tour the East and a number of per manent exhibits m eastern cities. Thanking you kindly for such exhibits and assistance as you can furnish, I beg to, remain, Respective yours, H. W. Graham, Western Ind. & Immig. Agent. NOT AFTER ARTESIAN FLOW The big well drill has been started on the Dombrowe place, several tanks of fuel oil having been received from Shaniko. It is learned on good authority that so far as this particular well upon which work is now in progress is concern ed, it will only be drilled as deep as is necessary to secure a sufficient supply of water for locomotives. This statement is made for the reason that one can hear almost anything about any of the development work that is now being done in this vicinity, and the rumor was current here this week that the hole would be put down to the full capacity of the drill, one-half mile, in an effort to strike artesian water. This well is the undertaking of the Oregon Trunk Railway, and when water is found sufficient for their needs, right then the drilling will cease, and the pumping plant will be installed.
