RECORD BREAKING CROWDS
WITNESS MILE LONG PARADE
bcllH-Moto Show Wlira rrulno for
Splendid Appearance Rest Circus
Ever Seen Here Is Verdict of Many
Truly "A Circa Beautiful"
Every tiling in Connection with the
liilC Show Iii Spick and Span:
Sclls-Floto, "the circus beautiful,"
Is In Pendleton.
The Pendleton kid, regardless, of
age, Is In his glory today.
The whole show, just as advertised
apparently, arrived bright and early.
The parade was pulled off at the
appointed time and much to the de
light of more than 3000 people who
lined the streets. Not one word of
disappointment .was heard from any
one. But words of praise were nu
merous. The show is larger and apparently
better than last year. And the same
beautiful characteristics are to be
it-en. The animals are well fed, the
wagons are clean and the performers
are neatly dressed.
Several hundred witnessed the per
formance this afternoon, but the big
crowd will be tonight.
ScllM-Floto Ilcttt of All.
"When the Sells-Fioto show starts
all other circuses get the gait and
are left standing sideways," remarked
a stranger when he saw the parade
go by this morning. "I've seen all
the circuses In the country," Jje con
tinued, "on both sides of the water,
but the Sells-Fioto show has got 'em
all 'phoning for the ambulance. There
ero some bigger circuses, but there Is
something more to a show than two
square miles of canvas and a parade
that has to have wireless communlca
tlon between the wagons to keep from
getting the distance flak. From the
heralds to the steam piano, take it
from me, the Solls-Floto show has the
others watching the clock."
After viewing the mile-long parade
with its troops of beautiful horses,
ek-gant cages, splendidly equipped ve
hides, well trained bandx, handsome
men nnd women, herds of elephants,
open rages showing lions, tigers and
other denizens of the Jungles of the
world, the reporter wus ready to put
down a bet on what the stranger said
In comparing the Pells-FIoto shows
with other circuses now before the
public.
Hie Afternoon Performance
There Is a jrood deal more about
the Sells Fioto show than appears on
the bills. The performance opens
with Eva Goldman, the little girl who
literally sings to "beat the band." Five
minutes before the big show starts,
she stands In the center of the multi
tude and with a voice that is at once
strong nnd sweet, actually makes her
self heard above the band of 40 pieces.
Then follows a porado around the
hlppolrome trark, a congress of na
tions being depleted by the georgeous
ly caparisoned elephants, camels. SOO
horses and 400 people a glittering,
glowing, golden pageant, resplendent
In silk and plush and 'bespangled
beauties, Everythlg looked new an
clean, with beautiful representing the
best of every nation on earth.
Tho Hide snow.
Don't miss the side show, above all
things. It Is by far tho best ever
brought here by a circus. There are
30 stages and no freaks. No moun
tains of flesh, no living skeletons, and
no monstrosities to give you bad
dreams and drive you off the water
wagon. W. H. McFarland Is in charge
and he features the Harry Harper
Georgia Minstrels.
Tbe circus Is at the ball grounds
and the show tonight starts at
o'clock.

AS TO MEASURES.
Judiciary Amendment No. 304
votes Yes.
This amendment is in the Interest
of speedy and less costly Justice, both
If
A SURGICAL
OPERATION
to the taxpayers and the Recused
it Is adopted, a law can be made when
ever It Is wise to dp so, combining the
offices of county and circuit Judge In
any county. In several of the most
thickly populated counties it should
bo done now, but the constitution
should be amended first. Terms of
court could be held oftener in such
counties, trials would not be so long
delayed and the expense would be
less. Where there are only two reg
ular terms of court a year prisoners
are often kept In Jail from six months
to a year before they can be tried
which Is a great Injustice to them as
well as a great expense to the county.
Peoples' Power League Measures
On pages 29 to 104 of the book sent
you by the secretary of state you will
see who are members of the league
and the arguments offered for Its
measures. You will recognize the
names of many men whom you know
have been working and spending their
money freely for years to lncreuse tho
people's Dower In Oregon. For tho
most part they are the same men who
prepared and offered the Initiative
and Referendum amendment In 1902,
Direct Primary law In 1904, Local
Initiative and Referendum and City
Chatter amendments In 1906. Many
of them besan this work with the
Australian Ballot League in 1889.
Every measure they have offered in
the past has added greatly to the
power of tho people and cut down the
power of the political machines and
bosses, and all have been declared to
be unconstitutional. These men be

league offers this year will complete
the system of laws necessary to give
the people of Oregon direct and ef
fective methods of quickly controlling
their government and its officers, and
will muke it Impossibly to cvtr resur

LYDIA ELPINKHAM'S
VEGETABLE COMPOUND
For proof of this statement read
the following letters.
Mrs. Barbara Base, of Kingman,
Kansas, writes to Mrs. Finkham:
" For eight years I suffered from the
most severe form of female troubles and
was told that an operation was my only

bone of recovery. 1 wrote Mrs. Finkham
for advice, and tool
Vegetable Compound, and it has tared
my Ufa and made me a well woman."
Mrs. Arthur R. House, of Church

" I feel it is my duty to let people
know what Lydla E. Pinkham'a Vege

For thirty years lydia E. Pink

a poor man to run for office on equal
terms with a rich man so far as
money Is concerned, by limiting the

Like the Direct Trlmary law, it is a
very long bill and full of details, but
could not be made shorter and do the
work. Also like the Direct Primary
law, the legislature would not pass It.

TREASURER SHOULD COLLECT.
Eastern People Puzzled Over Queer
Oregon Laws.
Since eastern people have com
menced to flock to this country In
large numbers the county treasurer
has had his hands full of trouble. Of
course most of these people who are
coming buy homes or Invest In lands
and naturally have to pay taxes, says
the Salem Statesman.
Nearly all of them come from
states where the taxes are paid to the
county treasurer direct and this Is
the office they flock to as a matter
of habit. It's a curious bland smile
thnt spreads over the honest faces
of theso people form ttie east when
they are politely informed that they
will have to go to the sheriff to set
tle that difference.
He is the fellow above all county
officers that they seek to avoid and
when they fully understand after con
siderable persistence on the part of
the treasurer that the sheriff first
handles the tax money they reluctant
ly take leave for the new Innovation.
As there are more eastern people
coming to this country now than ever
before this article may serve as a
gentle reminder of what to expect
when tax time comes around.
Portland City Council Considers IIu
mane Proposition.
That Portland may soon own
farm where city horses may be put
out to pasture, where the city ca
raise Its own supply of hay and where
horses can be bred for city service
was advocated in the city council yes
terday afternoon by Councilman Dris
coll In tin- course of the debate upon
Mayor line's veto to the ordinance
uthorlzinir tho sale of an old horse
says the Oregon Dally Journal.
Drlscoll's remarks were listened
with favor bv the mayor and th
eouncllmen, and something of the kin
may be done In the near future,
For some time Superintendent Don
oldson of the street cleaning depart
ment, bus endeavored to have the city
purchase a tract of land near the city
here horses can be handled properly
nd where the city can raise Its own
supply of hay, his Idea being to turn
out all of the city horses to pasture
for a certain period each year. Ffom
n economic standpoint Donaldson
says the city would soon be saving
money on such a venture.
In the council yesterday Driscoll
said that the city now owns enough
horses to warrant purchasing a place
here they can pasture. He spoke
for several minutes on the project,
nd his remarks were listened to by
the other members, and from time to
me Mayor Lane nodded his head In
greement to the plan. '
Driscoll favors having a tract where
II worn-out -horses can be properly
ared for until they have recovered
sufficiently to be put back to work
Donaldson believes that if the place is
bought a certain section can be plant
ed with hay. He favors building a
warehouse in the city where the hay
can be stored, easy of access to the va
rious city departments, thus saving a
large amount of money spent each
year for food for the horses.
While no definite action was taken
in the matter yesterday, It Is believed
that the project now started will be
taken up In earnest by the eouncllmen
and carried to completion before the
year Is out.
