An Old Soldier.
NEHAMA, Or, Oct, q, 1896,


EDITOR JOURNALISTIC i have
often felt i'm this time Of political
commotion, that l should place myself
on record, 1 am and have been for
years, a ''Prohi," and L expected to
stay with my principles; but as my
party is limited, and we have no state
ticket, hence l am for Bryan and free
silver, as next choice. have
counted the cost, both politically and
socially, for am an old soldier and
many of my old comrades will say ha!
ha! A Demo-Popocrat, etc.
And here will say for all my old
comrades, 1 respect you for your past
deeds Of valor, and feel that the fire
of battle has welded our hearts to-
gether. But such political leaders
as j. II. Mitchell of Oregon and w.
II. Doolittle, of Washington, feigning
to take up the cause of the common
people til there isl legislature elected
in their favor then they shake off
their mask of pretended kindness and
and we see them as they are-the op-
posite. They come to us in mask OF
kindness and sahctified voice and say,
remember the "grand old party" in
such a way and tone as to impress us
that our duties are to ''party;" and
many stand on the party plank
Others of us can not see it in that
light and cannot lay down our princt-
pies for "party." l am for Bryan aud
"American Independence" while Nc
Kinley is0 for Dependence" and
looks to England for succor. Politi-
clans must learn TO follow true patrl-
otism and not party. Then, our coun-
try will be prosperous and our people
happy; here we all mount the same
platform and make the mountains
and plains ring with "My Country tits
of Thee" Etc, from Maine to Oregon,
On the financial question, 1 have tried
to find out what is the best for all the
people. 1 have read and heard both
sides, and am convinced that the free
coinage of both gold and silver will
give us more dollars and less patches.
The McKinleyites call "free coinage"
the white elephant; well, its on its
way to Washington with w. j.
Bryan, and it will make a sure
tripsand better than time the golden
calf with MCKINLEY. They will be
weighed in the balance and Mckinley
will be found wanting more votes or
gold. And now / wish to say word
to the christian voters. Are you going
to put your conscience on the throne
and show your colors for the common
people OF will you dethrone conscience
for the money power. There is no
party. 1t is Bryan and American in
dependence or Mckinley and un-
American dependence. l do not favor
giving offense, except it follows the
discharge of duty. 1 ask you, hear
the cry "no money! no work." go to
the city and see the destitution and
want, then in the language of Peter;
"Gold and silver have none but such
as l have l give thee" Then vote to
give free silver and a change from
nothing to do, or shall we vote for the
gold standard and present conditions?

Colvig at the Armory.

Notwithstanding many other at
fractions in the city last night, an au-
dlence of fully 500 of Salem's
most intelligent people greeted the
Bryan speaker, Hon. VIM. M. Colvig,
at the armory last evening, and the
speakers solid shot was heartily ap-
preciated by all present-Republicans
included. Mr.. Colvig made some
strong points on the labor question,
showing that our country is least pro-
tected against foreign labor, and prov
ing that this was Of greatest import
ance to the prosperity of the country,
He showed that the great issue is hi
metallsm, and discussed that subject
very effectively. At the close three
hearty cheers for Bryan and the
speakers. s..

goals scored against them six were made
on free throws, leaving only four earned
goals in the eleven games, a really excel
lent showing. II will be seen by the table
that the highest number of goals scored
against the team by any one team in a
Edme vas two, and these were scored in
TOUR games, two with the Carroll Insti-
Iute ana two with the Corcoraa Cadets
The Carroll Institute team earned their
goals. while the Corcoran Cad cts secured
theirs on free throws and not from the
iield OF play. There is no doubt that if
the two forfeited had been played the to-
tai score of the Infantry team would have
been much bigger.
The team establishes another new record
IN the matter of the highest number of
goals scored in a single game Previous to
Wednesday the Carroll Institute held the
record with seventeen to their credit in
game against the Young Mems Christian n
Association In a game with the same
team the Infantry boys on Wednesday
evening Smothered them by a score of 81
to nothing.
The individual record. which was held
by Daley of the Carroll Institute team, has
been broken by Burnett of Infantry, who
succeeded in throwing nine goals in the
one game. The old record was euualed in
the same game by Shreve, who threw
eight. while Claude Given succeeded in
throwing seven goals, making a total of
e9enty-1oWr goals by three men. In five
OF the eleven games of the Infantry the
opponents have failed to score a single
goal

Boswell was the crack pitcher of the Uni

catcher, and Mcclure may make winner

Manager Schmeiz Is after.
Among the players here enumerated he
should not only be able to find a pitcher,
but also the material with which to

use for. Whether releases will cut more

END OF THE ASON

The season of the Basket Ball League has
about ended, the second series closing in
few days. The Washington Light Infantry
team play their last game of the league
series this evening at their armory, the
Eastern Athletic Club being their opponents.
Whether or not the visitors win the game
will Nmount to but little, as the Light In
fantry aggregation is so far ahead that 1t is
certain to secure the championship trophy,
offered by DIR. Schafirt, which for some
weeks has been on exhibition in the window
of Cline Bros.
The Infantry boys have passed through
the series without single defeat, though
some of their games were won by a narrow
margin. The Carroll Institute stands good
second at the finish, but there is no possible
hope of their winning the championship
trophy. The Infantry boys will properly cell
citrate their victory and have arranged for
a grand smoker which will come off next
Saturday evening at their armory. On this
occasion the handsome silver trophy will
be presented to them by the donor in per-

ANTE-SEASON GOSSIP.
The Senator's Expected About the
Fifteenth.


1t is expected that the Senators will be-
gin dropping into Washington about March
15. and from then until April use the Car
roll Institute gymnasium for indoor prac-
tice. From April until the 10Th National
Park will probably be the Headquarters of
the club. provided "Old Probabilities is
good to us. April is known as the month
of showers, and it need not be a heavy
shower to render the grounds unfit for Drac-
tice Last season the entire outfit of twelve
clubs went south. but still the Orioles
plumage was not ruffied, and they flew to
the front with a nerve-destroying rush that
i'll became birds of quiet disposition. This

WHEN THEY LINE UP
New Men That Will Be Seen With
the Washingtons.
WHAT THEY HAVE DONE ELSEWHERE
Bringing Good Records to the
Senators.
WEAK POINTS STRENGTHENED

All Fools day and the opening of the
local base ball season will be joint event
this year. 1t will hardly prove joking
matter. however, for several of the Sena-
tors, as on that day the youngsters sign
ed by the Washington club will be on hand
to participate in a series of practice games,
the result of which may mean the dispiace-
ment of couple of veterans by the young
er and more enthusiastic candidates.
What strength the new material may add
to the Washington club is, of course, prob
lematic; but the team, as a whole, fortified
with extra pitchers and competent substi-
tutes. can hardly help being an improve
ment on that Of former years. The club
went up peg last year. handicapped by a
crippled pitching department the usual
weakness at short and a woeful lack of
substitutes. Poor work at shortfield easily
lost dozen games. and. at a reasonable
estimate, dozen more went galley-west on
account of playing pitchers in out and in
field positions.
The management, it is presumed, has
prohted by experience. and its hopes for
sending the Senators up the line are built
upon the belief that the teams most con-
splcuous faults have been remedied.
When Manager SchmelZ'S regulars and
youngsters" line up April l for the first of
the spring games. the enthusiasts will have
practically new players. Although five of
these Joined the club late last season, orly
one-De Montreyiiie-played often enough
to determine his worth. OF the seven play
ers, Lush. Rogers. De Montreville and Nc
Cauley were drafted from the strong East
