; Interest in baseball has received a ire
ln1endpus stimulus in Butte because of
the splendid ball witnessed during the
past two days, and the members Of the
home, team are the heroes of the hour.
What pulled the cork out of the ginger
tbottlaj Is unknown, but on Saturday and
Sunday h Buttes played fast, clean
.ball,s1and the pace proved entirely too
swiftafor Anaconda.
I SteHani went back in the box yester-
day. and seemed to have a new assort-
lmentaof curves, drops and shoots, for the
Visitors could do nothing with him. Be-
,sidessthat, he was called upon for some
fine fielding n was equal to the emer-
gency every time. But Ave hits were
made off him.
The home team commenced smuggling
at the start, Burke getting around to
third on a hit that was good for a single.
a wild pitch by Carsey brought him
home. #
Two more runs were scored by Butte
in the third, Steffani and Schmeer com
ing in. In h seventh Butte got another
man home. and added two in the eighth.
Anaconda scored In the sixth, Nhen
Carsey came in, and in the eighth. when-
Diesel gained first on balls and was
brought in by Swindell.
The attendance was large and the
crowd was very enthusiastic, every
brilliant play being a~pplauded.

too much kicking to suit Umpire Arlett,
and as he persisted, was fined S..

On Saturday afternoon. when Butte
developed it's winning streak. the game
| was full of excitement, both the home
| team and the A~nacondas playing nearly
| perfect ball. Butte won out by a score
Of 5 to 4, and everybody was kept guess
i ing until the last man was out. Thiel-
man, who went into the box for Butte,
proved a veritable mystery, and he held
the visitors down to five hits. one OF
them being a scratch. The fielding OF
both teams was snappy, and star plays
were numerous.

BECAUSE the SHEAF in recent is
sue published what the State Board
OF Equalization did in the way OF
raising assessments OF farm proper
ty in Marshall county, R. Glavin,
who is one Of Governor Lind's ap-
pointees on said board, comes back
at us in a column and half article
in last weeks Register. But besides
abuse OF the SHEAF and it's editor,
we fail to find in the whole wordy
effusion any denial OF the facts as we
published them. They cannot be
obscured behind high sounding
phraseology. Mr.. Glavin may rip
and tear and abuse the SHEAF all he
will, but the facts remain that the
Board OF Equalization, of which he
is member appointed by Gov.
Lind, did False the valua tiOn OF Mar

Increase 5 per cent on two-year-old
horses; 20 per cent on one-year-old
cattle; Is per cent on two-year-old
cattle; 20 per cent on COWS; SO per
cent on sheep; and 33% per cent on
household goods. Real estate in St.
Paul, Minneapolis and Duluth low
cred $22, 100000. The SHEAF can
stand all the abuse Mr.. Glavin can
heap upon it, and the farmers will
have to stand the increased taxes.

WHEN we henrd Mr.. Bryan at
Crookston, we could not help think
ing of Robert Ingersoll, whose ora
torical powers were even greater than
those OF Bryan. The two men have
many points OF similarity. both are
great fault-tinders, one in religion,
the other in politics The best efforts
of Ingersoll's life we're given to tear
ing down the Christian religion, as
Bryan is now trying to tear down
the Republican party and it's policy
OF government. Ingersoll picked
flaws in the Bible as easily as Began
now shows flaws in the Republican
party, and he lectured on the mis-.
takes ofMoses as flippantly as Bryan
now bowls about the mistakes of Nc.
Kinley, When he turned his great
wit, sarcasm and eloquence against
the Bible, many good men feared the
book was doomed, strong minds be-
came bewildered and some led astray
But 10, the Bible and the Christian
religion survived the onslaught, and
will continue to be the light and hope
OF humanity till the end of time
Likewise will the Republican party
survive Bryan's poisoned arrows
Both Ingersoll and Bryan are mas
ters at tearing down, but neither o.
them has anything worthy to put in
place. e. .-~..-.-s- ~. r. -.

ter to the Willmar Tribune, in which
he gives the following very good rea-
son why Mckinley should be re-
elected. He says: s.
"Now let me apply my views to
actual life a few miles out Of town
lives a friend of mine, farmer,
reader of the Tribune, and an honest
and Industrious man, with a large
family on his hands. This man was
fairly prosperous and paying for his
farm OF 200 acres in 1892. In 1896
this same man was practically bank
rupt. His debt was $4,000 and he
could not then sell his farm for that
amount. In 1898 hegot his indebted-
ness placed at 6 per cent interest, a
reduction OF some 2hlper cent, and
to-day his equity is worth at least
$4,000 and he is reducing his indebt-
edness yearly, and ii present condi-
tions continue he will, after a few
years, get out OF debt and own a
home and competence for himself in
his declining years and his family
ofchildren. ,..s@.
Now, Mr.. Editor, candidly believe
that keeping Mckinley in the presi-
dental chair for another term will
keep Industrial conditions as they
are and enable this man, and thous-
ands Of others like him, to save their
homes. And ] as scandidly believe
that electing Bryan will so disturb
industrial conditions that nine out
of ten men in such circumstances
will lose their homes. 5r

DIES OF HIS INJURIES.
COlOred Man Who Was Sent to Hospi.
tai Suffering From wound.

Ellsworth Johnson, the young co!ored
man who was sent to the Casualty Hospi-
tai the Goth of November and who was
afterward transferred to the Washington
Asylum Hospital. died at the latter insti-
tuition this morning. When the police
took charge of Johnson he was suffering
from pistol shot wound in the left side.
The wound, he said, had been inflicted by
Cecil Lawson, also colored, at Cumberland.
Maryland, during a row The wounded
man was i'll when he reached here. although
he said doctor in Cumberland had ex-
tracted the bullet and he felt fairly well
when he started this way.
Johnson's relatives live in Cumberland.
He resided in Georgetown near the AQue-
duct bridge for short time. He and a
number Of other colored men from Cumber-
land had worked in coal mines in Pennsyl-
yania and had been home on visit. They
got ready to return TO the mines, hut before
the start made the men got into
row. with the result stated. Believing his
injury was not serious. Johnson boarded a
train and came this way, intending to re-
turn to the mines. Because of the change
in his condition he found it necessary to
stop in this city for treatment. His body
is now in the morgue.
The Cumberland authorities have been no.
titled of Johnsons death, and 1t is possible
they will claim the body in order to hold an
inquest 1t is understood that arrest
has been made in the case.
