TO BE BIG DAY
ASHLAND, May 4. Lot it not bo
thought for a moment that tho mili
tary pageant occurring here June 13
will detract from the regular Fourth
of July celebration at Ashland, estab
lished in accordance with precedent
lor these many years. July 4th
takes the place in local entertainment
T circles of the roundup of former days,
the latter event now being but a
,-Jjemory. The Coast Artillery visit
m is merely a transit, but will be
ub8erved on a big scale nevertheless.
This leaves the Fourth of July as the
one great observance of the year,
having national prestige to supple
ment the local patriotic outburst. In
Justice to other localities in the
county, Ashland should early an
nounce an intent regarding the cele
bration, and steps are being taken to
maintain the status of its entertain
ment history In this respect.

land extending between the railroad)
track and city auto camp grounds to
the lumber yard. There will be sev
eral different departments, such as
the crockery department, china, ware,
pottery. It is reported that the china
ware which will be produced will rival
the famous chinaware produced in
France. The clay Is of exceptional
quality, it is to be gotten from the
Evans Creek district. The company
also has very good clay in the Willow
Springs district on Willow creek. At
present the company has orders book
ed ahead to keep thorn busy the com
ing season. Among the orders Is a
very large one for insulators.
Specimens of their products were on
display at several of the stores in the
city. They appear to be of very good
workmanship. Among the things dis
played were pots, insulators, door
knobs, tiling, brick and several other
Items, all showing expert workmnm
ship.

even further than their present hold
ings that were donated them by the

haps wish to establish factories in the
city. Central Point will become known
to the outside world through its pro

his, or, her heart for this factory that
will be of such great help to the city
in its way onward to progress nd

hose was first tried but to no avail,

which had by this time grown quite
large. All hands helped to man the
hose and soon the fire was out without
inflicting great injury to the house or
contents. A greater part of the furni
ture had been taken out, so that it
was not damaged by water. The firo
was apparently started from a faulty

roof, only a Bmall space being burned.
