The Laet of The Popguns.

The Popgun bills were given par
lamentary burial last Saturday.
They were respectfully laid to rest
in new sepulcher, hewn out OF
Senatorial rock by Mr.. Murphy, of
New York. Nothing short Of y
marvel can roll the stone away from
their grave and give them leave to
walk.
Nothing could be more puerilc
than the House performance i'll the
passage of those bills through thas
body. Everybody knew than it
was the most baldheaded buncombe.
They were not given the Formally
of any consideration. They were
shot off into the House without all
indecent haste which would have
been a dangerous precedent only it
was uni, ersally recognized that they
were not bills in any sense of the
term, but mere.buffets betwecnt tho
President und the Senate, designed
to make the humilating defeat Of
the former less crushing. They were
never taken seriously. Should an
attempt be made in subsequent Cor.
crosses to Railroad legislation
through on the strength of that pre-
cedent the idea would be secuted,
for those bills bear to genuine at
tempt at legislation about the same
relation, as their designation indi-
Gates, that child's toy gun does to
a soldiers musket.
If any Democratic congressman ex-
poets to fool his constituents by
tlourishing the popgun bills he
is doomed to disappointment. The
Legislation actually passed is the rec
ord en- which we must stand in tho
coming campaign. The wage wor-
ker will Judge of it from their point
of view, the wool growers and far
mers from theirs, and the business
mem the same. The time for emp
ty theorizing and sham has passed.
The less the Democrat politicians
display those popguns on dress pa
rade the better it will be for them.

EAGLE RIVER VS. cHoATE

Last Sunday the Choate niue came
down, accompanied by an excursion,
to play a game OF ball with the home
/ team. The reputa ton of our club had
reached that place and they came
down with the full. purpose OF taking
the conceit out OF this nine. They
had secured Wilson and Utz, OF Osh-
kesh, the same battery that played
with IVashburn last year and only
lost one game during the entire season
Then they picked the best players
!! from Choate, Even, Interior and
Watersmeet and thought they had Il
lead pipe cinch on the game. They
brought an enthusiastic crowd who
were ready to put up considerable
money on the game but after first
two innings there was not u cent in
sight.
The home team went to bat first
and secured one runin the first inning
aud i've eoch in the fourth and fifth
innings.
The ChOates scored in the third
inning and another in the sixth. At
this time the score stood two to
eighteen in favor of the home team
and the home team, thinking that
that was not just the way to treat
visitors, let up and allowed them to
run in twelve scores in the next three
innings increasing their own during
the same time by six. making the
score at the end of the game IA to "a
in favor of Eagle River.
The feature of the game was the
terrific batting, OF the home team,
singles, doubles and three baggers
following each other in rapid success
j'sion. Francis COlman led the batting
for the home team, making, besides
several singles and two baggers. O..e
home run. John Diamond also did
great work with the stick us did also
Frank Hull, Lull and the Others.
Diamond and Colman was the bat.
terry for the home team and had fif-
teen strike outs to their credit. At
times Diamond was somewhat wild
and sent two men to bases on balls
besides hitting two Others. Wilson
of the Choates proved himself a good
pitcher and struck out thirteen men.
About two hundred came down on
the excursion from the different
places along the line and made the
village look quite lively. The band
met them at the depot and in the
afternoon escorted them to the
grounds.
Right here it wOnld not he out OF
place to say word for the band. 1t
is composed OF boys residing here in
the village and they have only been
practicing a couple of weeks and this
was their first appearance in public.
They did extremely well and are de-
serving of the commentator and
patronage of the citizens generally.
