The Cslcbrct'on. On Monday thopeopleof Hem ingford and the surrounding country joined together ill cele brating the 122nd anniversary of American Independence. Early in Hie morning the peoplo began to assemble and by 10 o'clock the streets wore filled with an enthu siastic throng which gave ample proof that patriotism still lives in the hearts of our peoplo. At HhUO tho parade consisting of the Chariot of Statu, in which rotfo tho Goddess of Liberty, followed by forty-llvo young ladies repre senting tho differnt states, the flower wagon carrying the Queen of flowers surrounded by twenty litllcJ girls dressed in white, Jus tico with her four advisers, In dians attirred in war array, deco rated wagons too numerous to mention, all proceeded by our txcellent band, passed through tho main streets of tho town, thence to the pavilion. Hero an interesting musical program was givon by the band and a chorus of male vpiceH under the leadership of Prof. Blanch ard. Noxt came tho reading of the Declaration of Independence by the Hon. W. M. Iodenco. Row Rominger tho speaker of tho day was then introduced, and entertained the people for some time in a very able mannor,some what marred by his reading from manuscript. Wo perhaps have a different conception of what is meant by the celebrating of the Fourth of July than has tho Rev. gentleman. To us it celebrat ing the anniversary of the day upon which that Committee of broad-minded, far-seeing men handed to tho Congress a docu ment that was to change tho history of the world and .the principles contained therein bo came the foundation stones of a mighty Republic. And in the struggle that followed this dec laration of rights, the sturdy pat riots gathered from every colony and Protestant and Catholic marched side by liide after their leader Washington., NOT that they might be free from tho des potism of priest or Pope 'but of a tyrannical Protestant king. We own toifferent soctsin religious worship, but in love of country we stand united and in the cele bration of a National holiday we expect credit duo American citi zens and American institutions no matter of what creed. Americans tight for piinciplos and should the time over come when wo shall have to fight the Turkish Empire it will not be 10 recover tho $200,000 damages done American property during the Armenian t'oubl'. but for the sake of humanity. Wo wore also led to believe that the Rev. gentleman is a rank socialist. Suffice to say if ho had loft roligion and politics out of his "oration'' it would have been more pleasing to tho peoplo in general, even to members of his own church . An effort was made to secure J udgo Ricker of Chadron and Judgo Thompson of Grand Island but both were engaged by other towns. After the program the peoplo took posession of the court room which Sheriff Sweeney kindly placed at their disposal that thov might partake of tho basket dinner out of the sun and wind. In tho afternoon came the races which wero enjoyed by all. Tho sack race camo first in which Ed Mabin came out victorious. Next came tho bicycle race with llarve Goodonough an oasy first and John Christy second. The beautiful Hag, given by tho Ladies' Progressive Club for tho precinct bringing' In the largest delegation, was carried away in triumph by Mr. Robt. Anderson, the property of Lawn precinct. Nonpareil came in second in numbers and school district No. 81 camo in with a goodly num ber and a handsomely decorated wagon. Great credit is duo tho Ladies Club for tho success they have made of this celebration. Box Butte Items. Frank Darling of Dead 1)od wns visiting friends at this place last week J. A.
