Building Trades Alliance, it is conservatively estimated ,by those in Ahurn nf annrtm anH entertainments tnat not leas man l&.uuu to zu.uvu peo ple will pass the turnstiles at the fair grounds and into Athletic park after 11 o'clock tomorrow and until midnight Monday. - Ten ticket sellers and as many guard ing the various gates to both places will be on detail and as the general admis sion is only 25 cents It is figured that everybody will get their money's worth. Of course the side attractions on the temporary mldwav and dancing will cost extra but as one member of the commit tee nut it veaterdav. "You can dance your head off for an additional quarter." '7 List of Speakers. Perhaps most Important of the events at the fair grounds in the afternoon will be- the addresses which will be delivered by foreign and local leaders of reputa tion. Foremost of them all of course, from a labor standpoint will be Clarence ri. Darrow, who lately defended William D. Haywood. sir. uarrow wrote tne aenerai com mittee several days ago that unless 1 pressing business detained him he would ; .surely be on hand to deliver the prln- 1 cipai aaaress ox tne aay. xie wrote from Chicago explaining that he was shortly to leave for Boise, Idaho, and that he would be In Portland not later than this evening unless detained on creasing matters. In that event he , promised to notify the local committee 1 has been received from Mr. Darrow since he accepted tha invitation it is ; expected that he will be on hand as he promised. Mayor. Lane will make a few remarks and welcome those in attendance. Other speakers of the afternoon will be At torney W. R. McGarry, Seneca Fouts, W. H. Fitzgerald and Dr. J. Whit comb B rougher. Sandwiched In between the speech making will be vocal and instrumental selections by Miss W. L. Harwas and W. H. Drew. The former will sing and the latter will play on the violin. Prior to the general exercises which will be gin promptly at 1 p. m., Tomllnson's band will render a short concert pro gram. The speechmaklng and concert fea tures will be held in the Oriental build ing, and seats have been arranged to ac commodate 6,000 people. The seats in question are those which were stored after the fair closed and are owned by a circuB that exhibited on the grounds at that time. After the exercises are over the building will be quickly cleared and the balance of the afternoon and evening will be given over in tne Oriental build ing to dancing. L Tomllnson's orchestra andWuand will discourse dance music for the occasion. It Is figured out by thosethavliig the affair in hand that between r 25,000 and (8,000 will be taken in at the gate and from the various concessions.' The total amount may even run far In excess of that sum. But whatever it is the lead ers hope that It will, be large enough so that there will be a surplus next ?ear with which to give a demonstra lon absolutely free. Whatever the aur- ?lus is after paying the various attrac lons engaged will ko into a general fund controlled by both branches of the unions and placed aside for holding next year's celebration. Would Untertala Boyally. 'It is our desire," said Grand Mar shal Reed, "to give the laboring people an absolutely free show next year, if we cannot do that we hope to do so in years to come. We have done our best to make the affair successful this year, and I think we will get the crowds. 1 feel that we deserve them and every body has treated us royally. Of course our attractions will cost us a good deal, but notwithstanding' all that 1 think we will make some money on the affair." In the afternoon one of the principal features will be the athletic events. There will be two games of baseball. One will be between teams representing branches of tne organisations and the other will be between the Trunks and Brewers of the Trl-City league. Both exhibitions will be on the diamond of the baseball park adjoining the fair grounds which has been rented for the day. An entrance has been cut through to ttie ralr grounds from the park, and 1 the price of general admission to the grounds includes a seat for each ball; game. One of the features of the afternoon I will be a balloon ascension, and it has ' been arranged to drop a live turkey from quite a height. However, the' Oregon Humane society will have of-1 fleers on hand, and that feature of the 1 exhibition may be abandoned. I It has been suggested to the commit-! tee in charge of sports that instead of 1 taking up a live turkey a card giving i the nndor of it a turkey might answer the purpose just as well. The latter could be dropped from the balloon Just as well as a live bird. Bay Bird WUI Boar. "That bird will sail the air as Sure as fate. Humane society or no society." said a member of the commit tee. "We know Just where we stand and we are not going to bo stopped. The law Is on our side. They can't hang us and the worst they can do is to ar rest us." The balloon ascension is scheduled to take place at 4 o'clock in 'the afternoon. One of the night features of most im portance will be the sending off of fire works from a wire 60 feet above ground In the hands of a slack walker of repu tation. Another feature will be a "slide for life through fire." Every musical organization in lot city available has been engaged and the committee was obliged to press into service outside bands and musicians for the occasion. The committee Is very thankful to Mayor Lane for permission to bill the town In an adequate' manner to attract attention to the events of the day and everything taken Into consideration there does not seem to be the slightest thing at this writing to mar the day's festivities and even ths weatherman agrees to furnish ' a good brand of weathtr. "Bad, grod or Indifferent weather conditions cut no Ice with our day of entertainment." said Mr. Reed. We are all ready for ths big celebration and tne s coming off just as advertised. Special arrangements have been made to have a number of handsome floats in the big parade. Some of ths ve hicles will require as many as 12 horses to propel them. One of the handsomest in line will bs that of the -Teamsters' union. Ctgarmakers will bs rather dig nified and plan to rids In automobiles. Bartenders have decided to rids in tal lyhoa and carriages have been engaged for garment workers. Perhaps ons 6f the best turnouts win be ths plaster ers who will march- dressed .uniformly in white duck suits,.
