The 130th anniversary of Independ ence Day passed into history amid bursting bombs, crashing national salutes, blaring bands and cheering throngs. The temperature being slightly lower made tho day an Ideal one in which to celebrate the nation's birthday, and fully 1000 of our citizens early departed for Falls City and par ticipated in the grand celebration at that place. The first train from Dallas, after making several additions of cars, left about 8 o'clock and on arrival at Falls City our citizens proceeded to make themselves comfortable and to indulge in the good things that had been pre pared for their entertainment by the enterprising inhabitants of our sister city. An excellent program of various events had been prepared and a base ball game, between the Falls City boys and Guthrie, started the ball rolling, the Guthrie team winning by a score of 7 to 3. Promptly at 10 :30 o'clock the parade started from the city to the park on the heights, led by Grand Marshal of the Day, Fred Holman. Next in line came the Chemawa Indian School Band, discoursing patriotic and martial airs, followed immediately by carriages containing President of the Day, Hon. Frank Butler, Hon. F. A. Lucas, Mayor of Falls City, Hon. Clifton N. McArthur of Portland, Orator of the Day and Prof. C. L. Starr of Dallas. Thirteen young ladies of the Falls City public schools, dressed to represent the thirteen col onies, were next in line, and were followed by a score of Siletz Indians in their native costume. Immediately following the Indians came prominent citizens in carriages and on toot. The line of march was concluded at the grand stand and the exercises of the day were next on the program. After a selection by the Chemawa band the vast concourse of celebrators raised their voices in the singing of the grand old anthem, "America," after which Rev, G. N. Rounds of the Methodist church invoked the Almighty for a blessing upon this celebration of our nation's birthday. A selection by the band followed, at the conclusion of which Hon. Frank Butler introduced Supt. C. L. Starr as reader of the Declaration of Inde pendence. Mr. Starr made a few re marks as to the importance of every youthful American understanding in telligently the glorious sentiments expressed in the Declaration of Inde pendence, and then proceeded to read the same in his usual masterly man ner. A choir next rendered "The Star Spangled Banner." The President of the Day, In a few well-chosen remarks, next Introduced as Orator of the Day, Clifton N. Mc Arthur of Portland. In brief Mr. Butler said that it filled him with pride and pleasure to bring before that assemblage the grandson of Ore gon's grand old pioneer and former U. S. Seriator James W. Nesmith, (and that although Mr. McArthur hailed as coming from Portland yet he felt that the grandson of this grand old man, who did so much to forward and promote the welfare of Oregon was by no means a stranger and really be longed to Polk county. Mr. McArthur, in a brief and eloquent address spoke of the greatness and strength of our ratners m tneir oatties ana sunerings to overcome the obstacles of tyranny and oppression to the end that we might enjoy a peace and prosperity unequalled in the history of past or present ages. In conclusion the sneaker mentioned the seeming in difference of our people to the growing evil of civic unrighteousness and cautioned his hearers to pay more heed and to use their utmostendeavors to blot out that monster which is sap ping the vitality of ourbeloved nation. At the conclusion of the address, six teen young ladies favored the assem blage with a flag drill and a selection by tne Dana nnisnea tne exercises or the morning. The dinner nour naving arrived tne crowd next proceeded to satisfy the cravings of healthy appetites. Many celebrators had brought lunches, and scattering along tne banks or tne river and through the beautiful park, made of the celebration a vast picnic. Laughing faces, happy greetings, the aroma of delicious viands.interspersed with the bursting or firecrackers and the joyous shouts of the festive Young American lent to the celebration a pleasure and happiness not soon to be forgotten. At 1 :30 o ciock a log-roiiing contest drew the crowd to the banks of the river and the assemblage gathered much amusement from the mishaps of some of the contestants, who were treated to several involuntary baths. The Calithumpians or Pluiz-URlies next paraded from the city to the park and drew the attention of the cele brators.much laughter belngprovoked by their antics and ridiculous make- UPS. Au tfAUimuuu ljiu uuuuuai game, between lianas ana unemawa, was next on the program, which re sulted in defeat for the Dallas team, the score being 10 to 1 in favor of the Indians. A timber railing contest on the public square furnished further entertainment, which was followed by an amusiner pillow fight, an Indian dance by Siletz Indians in their native costumes, and various email games, including a wood sawing contest by several young ladies. The aav drawing to a ciose next saw the inhabitants of the surrounding country proceeding to their homes, those who remained being entertained by a grand display or fireworks in the evening, a grana duii coucmuuu iue (lav's festivities, wnicn was ereatiy emoved by the younger people, and the train leaving at 1 a. m. saw most nf tho Dallas celebrators returned to thfir homes. We are safe in remarking that for pure unadulterated pleasure the cele hratinn at Falls City has not been Kiirnassed. Everywhere were smiles nf hnr.ninpsa and shouts of enjoyment. -n difttnthinor element of any kind marred the dav's festivities and mnm orderly and well behaved gather ing never before congregated to cele brate our national holiday. The m.nornna hnsnitalitv of the Falls City people is to be greatly commended and th celebrators departed for their homes tired but happy as afiitingcon pinsinn to the anniversary of our great Independence Day.
