innings the Raglans piled up 12 runs
TO but four for the home team. Then
the running was reversed, and in the
fourth Roseburg took FIVE to one for
the visitors. It was then that real
ball playing began, and neither side
scored again until the eighth, when
the locals took hve more. In. the
ninth Salem gained one. and tied the
score at IL TO IA. The tenth was
fruitless on either side but In the
eleventh the locals got busy" and
took four more. AS the visitors could
score but two. defeat became their
lot
II was an exciting game. although
al several times the pitchers on both
sides were batted heavily and many
runs were recorded.
The Battle Sunday.
For Sundays game the lineup OF
each team was somewhat rearranged,
Sam Morris having arrived to take his
place In the box for the Raglans, and
Bradley took up his usual Sunday
stunt for the locals in the same posi-.
tion.
The largest crowd OF the season was
present and they were not dlsappolnt

baseball ever put up here. as the final
score, Salem g. Roseburg 2. plainly

three straight defeats at the hands OF

safe hits were recorded. He was sup.
ported by good team work. The visit.
tors were also In good batting form
but In the entire game only Ave lived
TO reach the home plate,
For the home team this was Pitcher

somewhat llstless. yet the visitors had
strenuous work right along TO keep
the balance In their favor. The first
score was made by the locals in the
second inning. This was tied by the
Raglans In the third. Then neither
brought In man until the sixth
when Davis scored for the visitors and
was followed by Patterson. who plant

and took a saunter all the way around
In the seventh and eighth the visitors
made good on one each, while the To-
calls made no gains. In the ninth the
home team shook on their lethargy
enough TO score just one more man.
and the game was over with score OF

The 1903 almanac of the American

1t should be in the hands of all good
Demovrats. The Secretary of the
League, Gen. Hazard Stevens, thus ac.
curately and truthfully characterizes
our so-called system of protection
mo longer needed as % defense
against the foreigner, protection has
now become the thumb screw of extor-
tion upon the American people. 1t is
the dam holding back ign competi-
ton, and behind which the great trusts
levy high prices upon tneir countrymen,
upon the same class of goods which
they are exporting in great quantities
and selling abroad at 20 to so per cent
less than at home. Hence their stubborn
resistance to any reduction of duties
which protect them in their monopolies
and eXtortiOns.
''This whole doctrine of protection is
a blunder that rises to the level of a
crime Inculcated by selfish and cor
rupt interests until it has become a
party fetch, protection has at last
reached it's acme, done it's perfect work,
by demonstrating that it is a system of
monopoly and eXtortion. 1t fosters
greed, begets fear Of the foreigner, and
paralyzes self-reliance. Tt is the cham

tree grows to a height of sixty feet:
when three years old it begins bear

at the age OF eight may produce year

The Middleman.

A few years ago there was a strcng
demand for the elimination of the mid
dleman in the traffic between the farm
err and the consumer, yet we have found
but few farmers who were ever willing
TO go from house to house to sell the
products of their farms, with the pos
sible exception of the milk producers
near some large towns, where they can
establish a regular daily trade, and per-
haps add such staple articles as butter
and eggs thereto, or perhaps take or
ders for poultry, vegetables or fruits to
be delivered at later trip Most of
them prefer to sell to tbc- grocers and
marketmen at lower prices. The time
required in a house-to house canvass
can only be warranted by obtaining full
retail prices, while the fact that one
needs a complete assortment at almost
every trip, or he will find that at most
places they call for what he has not and
do not want what he has, is diseOur
