BASE BALL MATTERS.
Let's Pay the Bills and Con-
tinue the Games.

1t is said our baseball boys did
not realize enough to pay the ex-
penses of the recent games, by
about SOL. AS we have unques-
tionably the best club in the terri
tory, they should not lack for the
proper encouragement. And the
practical way to encourage the
club is for someone to 60 about
among those who take an interest
in the game this evening and col
lect the SOL. 1t can be done in an
hour and perhaps less time. The
Vinita club has been invited to
play the Sloan Springs club on
the occasion of that towns anni-
versary celebration, June "a, and
have accepted. This would, ordi-
narily, call for a return game at
THIS place, but our players do not
feel warranted in extending the
invitation. 1t is usual for the ex-
penses Of visiting clubs to be met
by the town at which they play,
but unless that s51 is forthcoming,
no new obligations are likely to be
assumed Our boys play we'll and
take delight in it, but they cannot
afford to pay the bills and the
town is not made up OF the kind
of people that expect them to do
so. Furthermore, a good ball club
is good advertisement for town,
and is worth maintaining, as
business proposition. Let's Keep
the games up.

Tom MONROE,

Secretary Hitchcock's new rul-
ing in reference TO leases hereto
fore made with Indian tribes in
regard to the mining of coal land,

in regard to Indian matters. OF
course we realize how utterly i'm
possible the task of dovetailing
justice and equity in the practical
workings Of the Curtis bill or even

what a gigantic task the secretary
has in trying to me,Se the ''law"
and common justice agree. 1t is
no easy task for the administra-

PARDEE GRANTS INJUNCTION.
AN END TO WATERWORKS LITIGA.
TION DOES NOT SEEM NEAR.
A Long Fight in the United States
Court Between City and Water
Company Is Promised.

1t now seems certain that a fierce
and long drawn out legal contest
will have to be fought in the United
States court before there is an end to tn
litigation bet Ween the city council and
the Dawson WaterwOrks Co. growing
out of an effort on the part of the former
to have the contract between the city
and the water company annulled.
Judge Pardee of the United States
court has at last announced his decision
in the injunction proceedings brought by
The Columbia Avenue Saving Fund, Safe
Der, sit, Title and Trust Co. of Phila.
delphia, the holders of the bonds of the
Dawson Waterworks Co., against the
city last April, end the decis on is against
| the city.
Judge Pardee enjoins the city from
erecting, constructing or operating, or
planning or proceeding so to do, any
system of waterworks or Cisterns or 9th
er water supply for fire, domestic or
sanitary purposes until the validity Of
the contract between the city and the
waterworks company can be determined
in the federal court. The city officials
and individuals are also forbidden to
prevent in any way the carrying out of
the present contract with the water
works company.
The question of the legality of the
contract will come up before Judge
Newman in the United States count at
Columbus in December should the city
not appeal from Judge Pardee's decis-
ion in the injunction case, which is prob
able.

A Young Man of Dawson Dies In a

Agnas Alcientes, Mexico, was received

Carver, at hospital in that place. The
message was severe blow to the fond
parent, who was anticipating the home
coming of her son, he being en- route 20

Numerous kilograms of inquiry failed
to elicit any definite information in re-
gard to the cause of the young mans
death. The Dawson National bank
wired one of the banks at Agnas Alciens
ties to have the best of services given TO
the body, and the remains are now inter-
ed In one of the cemeteries at that place.
Mrs, Wilson was very anxious to have
the body brought to Dawson and inter-
ed, but there seems to be a la of the
republic of Mexico prohibiting the re-
moval under three years of the remains
of foreigners who die in that country,
and ii will be for this length of time be-
fore the body can be aisipterred and
brought to Dawson for burial
The death OF Claude Carver cast
gloom over this entire community, and
on all sides expressions of grief and sym

was received here. Dawson was the home

GENERAL RELATIONS ABROAD.
Our Friendly intercourse With Ger

Our relations with Germany continue to
be most cordial The increasing intimacy
of direct association has been markell
during the year by the granting permission
in April for the landing on our shores OF
a cable from Borkum Emden, on the North
Sea, by way of the Azores, and also by the
conclusion on September 2 of Parcels
Post Convention with the German Empire.
In all that promises closer relations of
intercourse and commerce and a better
understanding between the two races hav-
ing so many traits in common, Germany
can be assured of the most cordial CO.
operation of this Government and people.
We may be rivals in many material paths,
but our rivalry should be generous and
open, ever aiming toward the attainment
Of larger results and the mutually bene-
fetal advancement OF each in the line
Of its especial adaptabilities. -
The several Governments of the Empire
seem reluctant to admit the natural ex-
cellence of our food productions and to
accept the evidence We constantly tender
of the care with which their purity is
guarded by rigid inspection from the farm,
through the slaughter house and the pack
ing establishments, to the port of ship
ment. Our system Of control over export
ed food staples invites examination from
any quarter and challenges respect by its
efficient tho roughness. !, -t- -res
1t is to be hoped that In time the two

ward the realization OF their common pur-
pose to safeguard the public health and to
ensure the purity and wholes0meness OF

try from the other. Were the Congress to
