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.
