J. w. Morgan president of the

Waltsburg is prospecting ana thatI
business is very good for this time of
year. Mr.. Morgan is very enthusiasts
tic over the matter of the proposed
cut off of the Oregon Railway & NaNl-
cation company line between Dayton
and Starbuck.
All the business men of Dayton ana
Waitsburg have taken hold of the
matter in earnest" said Mr.. Morgan,
and with the help of the Commerclal
Club Of Walia Walla and the Chamber
Of Commerce Of Spokane, we should
be able to induce the railroad COM
pany to construct the line. When L
was in Portland President MOnler in
formed me that he would consider the
matter. He sent his surveyors TO
Dayton several weeks ago to look over
the proposed route, but owing to the
bad weather they were unable to make
a survey. They made an examination
been compiled by the engineers en-
ployed by the Dayton Commercial
club, but they were not satisfactory
tOI the engineers. We expect the o.
r. & n. surveyors will make another
survey shortly. Should the route be
established it will mean a great deal
to Waitsburg and Dayton as we'll as
Walla Walla and Spokane.
The Waitsburg Commercial Club is
increasing its membership and the or
ganization will soon be in a position
to take up several important matters
tending to benefit Waitsburg. All the

Paramount Question Is
Successor to
Hickey.

CHICAGO, Dec 2S.-Who shall sue
coed r. ]. Hickey as president is the
principal matter to be decided at the
annual meeting of the American
Baseball association begun today at
the Grand Pacific hotel. Circuit
changes and other matters of import
ance will come up, but the paramount
question before the meeting is that
concerning the presidency. AT a
meeting of the association in October
President Hickey gave notice that he
would retire from baseball and re-
sign the presidency.
1t has been reported that Hickey's
resignation has a string to it and that
he is not so anxious to get out of the
league as he would make believe.
However this may be the chances
appear to be against his retention of
the presidency in view of the strong
opposition of Tebeau of Louisville
and of one or two other magnates.
1t is well known that if Tom Lotus,
who expected to retire from the
Washington club of the American
| league, were available, he could have
the presidency Unless some such
strong man as Lotus or ]. II. Far
rell is chosen it is likely that the
