Market Days Will Be
Main Feature.
THREE BIG GLORIOUS DAYS
Looal Business Men Contri
bute Generously to Cele
bration Fund Fourth
of July, Day of
Sports and Games
Condon will commemorate the
anniversary of the nation'a birth
day and the celebration for
which plans were definitely made
Wednesday eveninjr, promises to
be the most elaborate yet under
taken by the business men of
the town. The festivities will
Include three glorious days, July
2, 3, and 4th. Thursday and
Friday are to be known as "Mar
ket Days" and Saturday the ex
ercises incident with the Fourth
will be held in a glorious and
patriotic fashion.
From all sections of Gilliam
county and adjoining country,
ranchers, stockmen and farmers
are making preparations to spend
the three festal days in Condon.
Present indications point to the
fact that the largest crowd that
ever gathered in this city will
be here to attend the sale days j
and to give vent to their iatrio
tism on the Fourth.
" The soliciting committee has
met splendid success in its work
of raising fur.di to defray the ex
penditures of the celebration.
Some of the business firms may
increase their original contribu
tions and others who had not
made up their minds to assist
have since decided to help gen
erously. At a meeting of the
business men held at the council
rooms Wednesday evening and
presided over by Mayor Farns
worth, the committee machinery
was set in motion and a board
of general managers consisting
of M. 0. Clarke, II. W. Pauling,
and A. Willoughby was chosen.
The great feature of the cel
ebration will be the "Market
Days" because they will be of
interest and profit to the farmers,
stockmen, and ranchers, alike.
These sales have proven popular
wherever they have been held.
At La Grande, Pendleton and
The Dalles the success of these
sales has been unqualified and
Condon is to inaugurate them in
connection with the festival on
Independence Day. Anything
from a pound of butter to a
band of horses will be sold at
public or private sale free of
charge to the owner. To insure
satisfaction to seller and buyer,
the management will conduct
the sales under certain rules,
Besides the public and private
sales, the Condon merchants
have agreed to offer certain art
idea in their stores at cut-prices
and will offer exceptional bar
gains.

As the result of the damage
caused by a blaze because

struck a little while before, Tom

renovated the past week. Last

experiences are common and
Mr. Johnson paid no attention to
what had happened and went out
in the kitchen when he was
startled by the crackling of fire,
and reminded of what had taken
place. Before he could subdue
the flames, damage to the extent
of more than $60 had been done.
