IT TAKES ENERGY TO BE
ALIVE
Eugene has a Round-up, Flor
ence has a Rhododendron Festi
val, Junction City ho3 a Pump
kin Show, Creswell has a School
Fair, Cottage Grove has a
Grange Fair. What sort of a
celebration does Springfield
have for the amusement and
entertainment of the public?
Is is necessary for the mer
chants of this town to close up
for half a day and then go to
another town to celebrate? How
will we ever put Springfield on
the map if we don't get busy and
do something as a town?
"We can get lots of people to
come here and live when the
car shops come, but car shops
and lots, of people don't make
first class community spirit.
Car shops or big railroads or
lumber mills won't put a town
on the map for doing things for
itself. They come because capi
tal can make more money by
bringing them here, not because
local people want more indus
tries. Springfield had a Dollar Day
that was a success in propor
tion to the amount of work that
was put into it. We can do
things if we want to bad enough.
"Why can't -we have some kind
of a fair or carnival here some
of these times and let the other
p.eople in-Lane county know af
least we are awake and trying to
do things.

MAINE'S ELECTION
The following dispatch ap
peared in the New York Times
the morning after the general
election held in Maine last week:
SYRACUSE, N. Y., Sept. 11
When Informed tonight of the results
of the Maine election, so far as they
had been received, Charles E. Hughes
Bald:
"It looks good. I don't see how we
can lose now."
National Chairman Wilcox said:
"The result in Maine means the
election of Hughes in November. It
is very gratifying.
While Mr. Hughes would not com
ment any further in advance of fuller
returns, it is known that he accepts
the indicated victory as a great
triumph for the party and a vindi
cation of bis own leadership. Those
close to him say that as a result of
the Maine figures, the critics of the
management of the Maine campaign
must now cease cavilling and get
aboard the band wagon.
Saturday morning this dis
patch from New York was pub
lished in the Portland Journal:
New York, Sept. IB. The largest
wager recorded ni the financial dis
trict on tho forthcoming presidential
election was made today when a curb
broker placed $10,000 for a client
ngalnst $5000, that Hughes would bo
the next president.
Thero is practically no Wilson
money in sight Supporters of tho
latter nro asking 2 to 1.
Maine's 15,000 Republican
plurality over the Democratic
nominees has tended to raise the
stock of the Grand Old Party
higher than it was a few weeks
ago. This is the first definite
indication . the people have re
ceived as to the stand that may
lie taken in the presidential elec
tion in November.
