The dnnce is not only for everybody interested, but it is also for those who enjoy seeing others dance. For the dancers, the charge is five cents a number. For those who do not dance, there is no charge whatever, and it will cost the non-dancers not a cent unless they are lured to the wheel of fortune at five cents a throw, in which there will be no blanks. Other means of entertainment will be the famous keno game run by George C. L. Snvder. who claims to know all there is worth knowing about this fascinating game. Hot dogs and soft drinks will be served on the side, and those who do not dnnce will be proper ly taken care of.

Is Still Standing "For Un flinshing Protection of American Rights" By Perry Arnold. (United Press staff correspondent.) Grand Forks, N. V., Aug. 10. Speak ing to his first farmer audience as a presidential candidate, Governor Hughes today urged unity of thought in Americanism and reasonable prepared ness with governmental efficiency. "I believe in protection for farmers just as 1 believe in protection tor men in factories," he declared. "America will not hold her own by declamations. by high sounding phrases, she will re tain her place because she has the sense of tacts to force politics to reduce un necessary talk, the burden o'f words to a minimum, to obtain that which is es sential to her security and progress. "I stand for the unflinching protec tion of American rights. I do not be lieve we can hold up our heads in self respect if our words are not meant to be followed by deeds. I believe that in the great source of difficulty. Weak ness breeds insult and insult breeds war." The candidate declared lie stood for "an impartial business like administra tion." "It was a source of great satisfac tion," he said, "to be able to respond to this call, n call which I didn't ex pect free and clean from all incumb rance." Hughes urged a governmental budget system of making appropriations iu the iutcrest of efficient administration. 'Tf you give me the opportunity," he said, "I shall devote myself to that ideal of governmental efficiency." Mrs. Hughes sat with her husband on the platform of the auditorium, car rying a big bunch of roses. ' Lynn J. Frnser, nou-partisan guberna torial uominee, introduced Hughes. Is "Burning for Job." "I wish I could tell you how it thrills a man to make a trip such as Ijim mak ing," Hughes began. "I've been across the continent before but to make such a hurried trip and see such loyal citizens makes a man burn to serve them. At the base of all our prosperity is the ag ricultural iudustry. There must be un ity of thought everywhere as in a great co-operative undertaking. We must go up or go down together. There must be determined co-operation so that everywhere we shall have the best done to the end that we shall enjoy a common prosperity." Continuing, the nominee urged pre paredness and attacked democratic rule in diplomacy, dubbing the Mexican sit uation a "spectacle." The village band blared out a wel come to the republican nominee when his specinl train arrived shortly aft er 7 a. m., but "Charley" Faruham, the governor's factorum, hustled out and hushed the serenade, declaring that the candidate wanted to sleep. The bandsmen toted their horns and piccolos back and shut up so Hughes could sleep. It was 9 o'clock before he appeared looking fresh and fit as he rode to the Dacotoh hotel. Then Dr. Pittmnn had to hurry bock to the train to bring the throat sprayer and loosen up the candidate's vocal chords. This job done. Hughes held a reception in the hotel lobby. There were nearly 000 townspeople and farmers from nearby counties who marched through the line. .Many or them mistook the luxuriant tavinl growth sported by one of Hughes' guardians for tho famous Hughes' whiskers and tried desperately to shake hands. The candidate enjoyed himself immensely correcting the mistaken ones. Falls, City., Or., 8-9 '16.

Practically the cutire region south nnd southeast of Charleston for ninny miles was devastated, James Arick, of Charleston, said when he reached here today with the first eye witness -story of the flood. . "We left Kingston early yesterday and came down to Millburn," he said. "There was a slide at Millburn and torrents of rain caused the creek to back the train across the bridge when another slide hit the train behind us. My companion and I walked to Mnhan, IS miles away. At that place a slide covered the truck and five gondola cars were buried seven feet beneath dirt and rock. The slide reached tho houses of miners and they were destroyed along with many houshold goods." Death List Grown. Charleston, W. Va., Aug. 10. Scores of persons, reported mining early to day as the result of tne eioudhurst tnnt sweDt the Cabin Creek. Paint Creek and Coal Creek districts were accounted for) in later dispatches which greatly re duced earlier estimates of the number of dend. Late estimates indicate that the toll of dead may reach 50 and it is the be lief that others may be dend in the Paint Creek nnd Coal river valleys. Fourteen bodies have been recovered from the debris between the mouth of Cabin Creek nnd Leewood, 10 miles up. All except one are those o'f women and children. William J. McBride made his way down the creek from Ronda to the junc tion today and later to Charleston. "Everything has gone," he said and Investigation can only reveal how many are dead. The little towns near the mouth of the creek have beewn swept clean. Acres of Debris. "Every where it is a mass of debris. Houses, trees, mine tipples, railroad cars and telephone poles the thrown ! together in a heap miles long and there me i7u uriirttiu. "Men and women who were seen clinging perilously to houses borne down the stream toward Ronda were never seen to pass that point and we fear they are now a part of the mass I of wreckage lodged against the railroad bridge there." v A million feet of lumber is idled ' mountnin high at that point and it will take days to pull it down. The loss to the coal companies oper ating in the Cabin Creek coal fields will reach 2.000,090. Five members of the family of John I.ikeus. who lived at Giles were discov ered.

The New York Evening Sun financial review today said: Although there were indications in the character of the early trading that prices might move throughout the day toward higher levels on an expanding volume of business, general results were disappointing to the bull traders, particularly in respect of the amount of outside participation in the dealings. The advance of the day before failed to attract a genuine public demand and to a great extent it was this absence of public response, together with realiz ing sales that accounted for the heavy tendency of quotations following tho forenoon improvement. Prices in the opening dealings gener ally were at small advances from tho nesdnv's final operations. Although early afternoon trading ac companied a marked falling off in ac tivity, in most parts of the list and n tendency to sag from the early high points, the general undertone remained firm with talk in the various commis sion houses favoring still further im provement.
