TOM BURNS COLTS
 PLAY HERE TODAY Numerous ScaIps Hanging at
 Their Belts. HEllER'S LETTERS SANGUlNE Of Getting One of the Two Games Although They Realize They Have Hard
 Row to Hoe.
HELLER'S LETTERS SANGUlNE

The great Chicago Colts, under the leader-'
 ship of the peerless Tom Burns, will do
 battle on the diamond with Haller's hit
 ters at West End park this afternoon.
 The Windy City players come to the Magic City flushed with numerous vic- tories. Every Southern league team which has gone against them has been defeated. They may not get out of Birmingham with their string of victories unbroken The
 Reds are perefectly aware of the fact that
 they will not be playing Blocton or Mas sey's Business college, and will put forth their best efforts to down the Chicago club. It is already a settled fact that the games will at least be interesting, and Haller has l determined that his men shall get at least 1 one of them. The Chicagos played in Mo- | bile yesterday, and after playing two games ] here will proceed to St. Louis, where they ! open the season with Tim Hurst's Misfits. | The Montgomery team will open the | Southern league season here Thursday with a series of three games and money is al- | ready being posted that Haller's men will get at least two out of three.
 | Massey's Business College team were the 1 Reds victims yesterday.
 ], They proved to be the easiest thing that | the Reds have gone against to date and | tne contest WdS d T6B nipoutoHhc. lhC | Reds played like they were asleep and the | Massey team didn't play at all. Petty, l Cefalu and Boatright in turn went into l the pitchers box and each was batted at 1 will. Petty bobbed the ball over the plate l like he was two lazy to throw it and the l Reds hit it whenever they pleased. The only features of the game was the | playing of Knox in left and Wells in center | Both made pretty catches and were liber- | ally applauded
 | The Reds were perfectly aware of the l fact that they had a good thing and in the ninth inning almost the entire team was switched around Gilligan went in the box and Veitch behind the bat, Swift ger played first Vallendorf second, Haller third, Montgomery shortstop and Posner went to right field But even with this experimentation the Massey team was un- able to make run.
 Following is the score by innings: Birmingham .........2 U l | Vi
 Massey ...............Z U U U U U VI

IAllADEGA.

Taladega, April 11.-Beat meetings were held in the eighteen beats of this county last Saturday. Hon. J. D. Camp had no opposition for probate judge. J. A. Huey for circuit clerk against M. G. McCargo claims seventy-six delegates to the county convention out of the 11S for the entire county.
 J. B. Graham for solicitor of the Sevcnfh circuit carried the county over B. F. Will son, the present solicitor He will have from S6 to 90 delegates out of the 11S for the county.
 In Talladega beat Graham received 173 votes to Wilson A, the latter using his in- fuence for no instructions.
 In beat IS Graham received 60 = Will son 4.
 There will be no contesting delegations to the county convention on Wednesday.
 The chief justiceship was not any part of the beat meetings. It seems, however that Mcclellan will have majority of the state delegation of 10 if not all.

Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1898-06-24

Wheat dropped ten cents a bu-
shell within two days after Geer
was elected governor of Oregon,
and not a single democrat or Pop
ulist paper has declared that it was
caused by the election of Mr.. Geer.
And we candidly submit however,
that if Mr.. King had been elected
governor and wheat had fallen ten
cents in price within six months
thereafter that every republican pa
per from the Oregonian down to
the Yaquina Bay News would have
been bowling that King was the
cause of it, and that the only way
to raise the price back would be to
elect a republican governor.

THE NEW ISSUE.

The World published news We'd
nesday that was most significant of
the future policies of the Democrat
ic party.
In Omaha Mr., Bryan came out
squarely against the annexation of
tae Philippines.
At the University of Virginia, a
creation OF the founder of the Dem
ocratic party, an eminent anti-six-
teen-to-one Democrat, James c.
Carter, lifted up his voice in solemn
warning against the glittering and
tempting dreams of empire" and
called for a renewed pledge to the
faith of the fathers.
In Washington the caucus of
Democratic Representatives pledged
to that faith in deciding 10 oppose
Hawaiian annexation even at the
cost of estranging the free-silver
Republicans who have been so ar
IDENTITY and so self-interestedly lob
bying for it.
However ~resolutely men may
struggle, destiny will shape the is
sues on which political parties align.
The issue that seems to be shaping
beneath the smoke of this war is
the issue of the traditions Of the
fathers, of Washington aud Jeffer-
son, and of Lincoln as we'll, against
the new dream of empire that
would sacrifice all, including liber-
ty and democracy, for the doubtful
glorv of ruling remote islands and
alien races. New York World.

The political plums have about
all ripened and been picked for
some time. There is one left in the
tree, however, and it is getting
about ripe and ready to be picked.
This is the Office of collector of GUS
toms for the Yaquina district. The
present incumbent's term will ex-
pire at an early date, and there are
several persons that have their eyes
turned longly toward that plum.
Who the lucky aspirant will be is
not yet known, but it is rumored
that Charley Crosno will likely re-
ceive the coveted prize. Crosno
was the chief lieutenant of Con-
gresham Tongue in this county in
the recent campaign, and to say the
least he did hard and strong work
Tor him, and II he does not get his
reward somebody is going to be dis
appointed, to say the least. Still it
is not at all safe to surmise what
the Oregon delegation in congress
will do, or who they will recon-
mend for Office. In several cases
they have demonstrated their love
for some of their local leaders by
promptly turning them down, and
this may occur again when it comes
to the appointment of a collector at
Yaquina. 1t may turn out to be
some dark horse that will come out
ahead in the race.

The Oregonian unwittingly gives
a fair example of the manner in
which voters stayed at home on
election day. In six counties which
it names Mckinley got 7,4I3 votes,
while Geer received 1920 votes,
nearly 400 votes less. In the same
Bryan received I1,287 votes and
King 1885 votes; indicating, not as
the Oregonian says, that there was
a change, but that 1900 silver-re-
form voters stayed at home.

H. S. PORTER,

The Corvallis papers bewail the
fact that a large number of the
sovereign voters of their county
were in the market with their votes
at the recent election. The papers
should not be surprised. 1t was
only the legitimate results of two
well known laws. One was, in
the language of the republican ora
tor, the Gresham law, which gov
ems supply and demand. There
was an urgent demand for a vote
that could be purchased, and the
offerings were simply the Supply
coming forth in answer to the de-
mand. The other law was that of
advertising. The papers of Ben
ton county kept constantly adver-
Using that there was Doodle being
used in the campaign, and the fell
lows that are on the lookout for
Doodle come forth to see.

Editor LEADER:
In your valuable paper of the 10th.
inst. l saw an article written by Mr..
A. L. Chitwood in answer to an article
written by me at an earlier date. Great
minds always differ, and Mr.. Chitwood
and l differ on the way to clear up this
country and get it so we can keep stock,
which is the natural resource of this
county. l have tried Mr.. Chitwood's
way and can say it is alright if a man
wants to only keep a milk COW. But We
scribe wants to see stock raised as a pay
ing business, and to do this we have got
to get the range cleared up and set to
grass, and the only way is to burn and
SOW grass seed. If we had followed the
example of our dark skin brotheEs we
could now be able to keep thousands of
goats and sheep instead OF just a few as
we have now. l have been told by old
pioneers that the foot hills in the Will
lamctte valley when they FIRST came
there was all covered in grass, that is
now covered with a thick growth of grub
oaks and fir, and they claimed that this
worthless brush was kept down in the
days of the red man by them setting the
grass a fire and burning it off. l have
chopped and had chopped this spring be-
tween 40 and so acres of heavy brush
and killed as much more light brush
with fire, and 1 calculate to keep this up
until l can keep between five hundred
and a thousand head OF sheep, and 1
hope to see the day when every rancher
can do the same.

It's unfortunate that the people

to let the control of our county gov
eminent pass into the hands of the
Populists. -Yaquina Bay News.
The Republicans have had con-
troll of the government of Lincoln
county since its organization and
and the business has been conduct
ed in a most unbusiness like man
ner, and instead of the "Populist"
county court being a calamity to
Lincoln county, the people of Linn

be for two years more at least be-
lieve it will be the greatest blessing
ever bestowed upon our sister by

This is the way the Oregonian
promotes peace and harmony in the
republican ranks, after the election:
Republicans of Oregon have
closed Mitchell out. Next, they
will close out his pinchbeck imita-
ton and cheap understudy, Nc
Bride. Republicans of Oregon
want and will have men who stand
for principles, not for expedients to
get Office; men who stand for the
legitimate purposes of party, not
for the little selfish schemes of fac
ton"

ator Mcbride feel good to see these

he does not bow down to the dicta-
tor of the republican party of Ore

Preparing For Blue Ribbon
Week.

AS the racing season advances the
trainers who have charge of the crack
trotters and PAGERS are making ready
for the Grand Circuit that opens in
Detroit July Is. The Blue Ribbon
meeting at the famous Crosse Pointe
track attracts the fastest horses in the
land, so that this great racing carnival
never tails to furnish sport. There
are no other events among the regular
contests along the line of the summer
tour for the sulkies to be compared in
value with the Merchants and Manu-
facturers' stake for trotters, and the
Chamber of Commerce stake open to
the PAGERS. These two annual fixtures
are the coveted plums of each year,
being worth the goodly sum of $4,000
in all. Since their Inauguration both
have resulted in some of the most
brilliant battles ever seen in harness
racing, and the struggles of this COM
ing tournament bid fair to Guido any
thing that has preceded.
Besides these ever popular attrac-
tons it is practically settled that two
giants of the sulky will measure swords
at Detroit on the first day of the Blue
Ribbon meeting. Joe Patchen and
OOllh ~. pClllly ~ NllC pu-
tation that there is not man. woman
or child throughout this broad repub-
lie but has heard of their fame. Both
are remarkable horses. Gentry, swift
as an eagle. and almost unbeatable
when the day and track are suited to
his lightning gait. He has a formida-
BILE foe in the big black PAGER whose
turf career has been q veritable blaze
of heroic deeds. This noted pair of
equine gladiators were both bred in
Kansas, and like the cyclone of their
native state they have cut down
records and swept ell lesser rivals aside
in their all conquering march to a
front rank among the turf celebrities
of the day.
With the numerous sensations pre-
scented at the Blue RIBBON meeting,
Detroit will be the objective point for
all lovers of the noble horse during
the six days from July Is to %. Those
who take advantage of the one fare
rate on all lines running to the state
metropolis that has been secured for
Monday, when Patchen and Gentry
come together, can remain until We'd
nesday and see the contests for both
big stakes as well.
