Score one for Beach Haines. Men
who have traveled much never miss a
chance to eat at the lone hotel.
Friday was a big day. The hand
started to play promptly at ten o'clock
on the street and led the crowd to the
park which was gaily trimmed for the
occasion. The quoir rendered several
selections and the invocation was
given by Rev. J. L. Jones. Bert
Mason introduced the speaker of the
day, Dr. Withycombe, whose speech
we print as near as we remember it.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I am glad to to be here with you
today, this day which marks the great
est event but one in the world's his
tory. With the exception of the birth
of our Savior, Jesus Christ, no event
is of such great importance. This
flag represents liberty. Liberty that
each one may enjoy. It was a desire
for liberty that led the Pilgrims in
1620 to come to America. And in
1776 the Continental Congress issued
that famous declaration proclaiming
America free. That great struggle
which followed is too well known to
us all. Think of those tattered, half
clothed, patriots, whose barefoot
tracks left the bloodstains in the snow.
In those days we see Washington
bending on his knees in the forest and
praying to God for help. It was the
desire for liberty that led men to
these privations. With it all was the
fear of God and today our citizen
ship is built upon Christianity.
This is a great country in many
ways. Do you know thut we control
two-thirds of the banking capital of
the world? Three-fourths of the
corn of the world is raised here
Three-fourths of the railway mile
age is credited to the United States.
res, we are great in many things.
I am going to get closer home. I
know that the people of lone are good,
loyal American citizens. This cele
bration shows that. I want to talk
about conditions right here. I have
always tried to give the farmer my i
best advice. Some of you have dif-
fered with me, but I have always been
frank with you and told you what I
thought best. I should like to see you
bore more wells. I believe we are
coming to smaller farms. I think we
need more intensive farming and less
extensive agriculture. We have a
better country here than we have been
given credit for. We have to get
away from wheat, however. We want
to raise more cows, poultry, rye, hogs
and alfalfa.
I have been glad to see so many
automobiles. It shows that the peo
ple are more contented to live here.
To make this their home. Automobiles !
bring the farm closer to the city and
city advantages. It tends to keep the
young people on the iarm, certainly
a worthy thing.
We have heard a great deal about
back to the farm. The slogan is not,
"Back to the farm," but it is "Stay on
the farm. Every man should own
his farm. I am not saying anything
against the renter, we need the renter,
but we need men and women to make
the farm more than a transitory place
of residence. We want a family on
every 160 acres in this state. The
wealth of this state lies in agriculture.
One-fifth of the forests of the country
are in Oregon, yet forests are being
depleted and years are required to re
place them. Agriculture is with us
all of the time, let's look to the land.
Now to buy his farm the farmer
must have cheap money. In Germany
the farmers are able to get money
very cheap, five and six per cent.
Germany is one of the most pros
perous of the countries of Europe,
due mainly to the fact that the farm
ers own their farms. We are now
working on a plan whereby the farmer
can borrow to advantage, not disad
vantage. I expect to see the day when pump
ing stations will be in operation all
along the Columbia and other rivers.
There are five million horse power of
idle energy going to waste in the
rivers of this state and the time is
coming when water will be pumped
over these hills and they will blossom
with roses.
But these things must be done by
cooperation. The town must work
with the farmer and the farmer with

the town. This beautiful park, I
don't know to whom it belongs, should
be owned by the city. Rural credit,
pumping stations, ownership of farms
by farmers, all these and many more
can be realized if we work together.
These will bring us a new liberty, a
freedom from drudgery, from hard
ships, and distress and open into a
brighter, freer, and happier day.
After the speech, the band played
America and the audience joined in the
words. The morning program was
over when the band played the Star
Spangled Banner.
Friday afternoon the ball game was
the main feature which lone won.
After the game the horse men took
possession of the town and some ex
siting races were again pulled off in
the main street. The dance was
crowded that night and it was mid
night before the crowd began to
deminish.
Saturday morning Rev. Handsaker
of Heppner made the principal speech
in the park. The morning was cool
and everyone enjoyed the services.
About twelve o'clock the sun came out
and by the time the ball game started
is was sizzling hot. After the game
the street races began. The running
races were first held and then the
footraces. Miss Josephine Knappen
berg won the race for girls. Ed.
Adkins was the champion fat man
sprinter.
There was another big dance in the
rink that evening and at ten-thirty
the special train left for Heppner.
As usual, the baseball games were
one of the main features of interest.
Heppner and lone were the contesting
teams. The Thursday game was too
oii'j-sided to be of interest. Six
innings passed before lone managed
to get a man to first base. Heppner
piled up a lead of seven runs. Not an
lone man made a safe hit until the
ninth inning when two clean ones
were registered. Frank Hopkins
made a nice two-bagger which was
lost in the grass and allowed him to
make the circuit with two other run
ners ahead of him. The game ended
with thescore 7 to 3 in favor of Hepp
ner. Batteries were: lone, Sperry,
Johnson and Coshow; Heppner, Har
lan and Hall. Heppner outhit lone
four to one.
The Friday game was the most ex
citing seen in lone this season. The
final score was 5 to 4 witih the home
guard on the long end. Heppner
breezed along with a safe lead until
the eighth inning when two scores
came across as the result ot poor
headwork. This tied the game and
lone put across the winning run in
the ninth when two flies were dropped,
Heppner again outhit lone, about
three to one. The fielding of Sheldon
playing second base for Heppner, was
easily the feature of this game. The
batteries were: lone, Johnson and
Coshow; Heppner, Harlan and Hall
The Saturday game started with a
rush. Heppner scored their one and
only run of the game in their time at
bat. The first three lone batters fell
upon the offerings of Drake, who
started the game in the box for Hepp
ner, and when the smoke had cleared
away each batter had registered
tally. These runs were sufficient to
win the game, Heppner being within
striking distance of home plate only
j a few times during the remainder of
the session. After having pitched
eighteen innings in two successive
dnys, Harlan was called in from the
field and went through the agony of
nine more innings in the pitcher's box.
,The lone batters mannged to line out
a half dozen clean bingles before his
arm became sufficiently loosened for
him to give a respectable exhibition,
I and coupled with a few errors the hits
I resulted in four more scores
