Polk County Observer greeted by laroe house Five Hundred People Saw. the Cow. J. C. HAYTJiK, boy Play at Woodman Hall, Wednesday Night. EDITOR AJJI) PPBIJgHKR. Publiihed Semi-Weekly at 1.50 per Year. Strictly in Advance. Entered as ieeond-clam matter March 1, 1907, at the ptmtoflice at Dallai, Oregon, under the Act of CongresB of March 3, 187'J. DALLAS, ORKGON, Kovkmhkr 1, 1907. The way to build up Dallas is to pat ronize Dallas people. Farmers coming in from the country say that the rain will be of incalculable help to them. The month of dry weather just ended kept the soil in such a condition that It was impossible to plow and seed, and thereby greatly dolayed the Fall work. All talk of a panic In these days of prosperity Is idlo. Business in all lines Is good, the country has been blessed with bountiful crops, and there is more money In the United States today than over before. There will be no panic. The people are too busy and prosperous to indulge in such an expensive luxury. Threo years ago, aftor completing a census of Dallas, the Ohhukveb said: "The count shows that the town is making a steady and healthy growth. The day Is not far distant when it will have a population of 2000 people." The predicted growth has boon realized, and further predictions are In order. With the splendid start alroady made, we venture the opinion that the Government census of 1910 will give Dallas a population of 3000. Five hundred people witnessed the production of the breezy Western drama, "The Cow Puncher," at Wood man Hall, Wednesday night. Every seat In the house was sold long before the curtain rose, and those who came in late had to content themselves with standing room. The play was in the hands of a capable company, and a smooth performance was giveD, not withstanding the fact that the players were hampered by a small stago and a lack of scenery. No blame can bo at tached to the company for the poor stage settings, however, as it curries a large supply of scenery which could not be used In the local theater. "The Cow Puncher" is one of those Western plays, written by an Eastern playwright, that represents nothingto be found in this or any other part of the West. It is an impossible drama, filled with impossible characters, who are made to do impossible things It is decidedly of the "meller-drammer" sort one of those thrillers that work a "10-20-30" city audience up to the very highest degree of enthusiasm. The villain is made to "unhand the gyurl,"and "honah" and "virchoo' receive thoir duo reward after a throe hours pistol fight that leaves the theater smelling like a Chineso joss house. The play is full of action, and there is always enough doing to hold the close attention of the audience, It must bo said In justice to Manager Mann that his company is superior to those that usually tour the Inland towns. It is a matter of regret that tbo small stage made it impossible to use the largo amount of scenery and equipment necessary to make the play a complete success.
