ON THE DIAMOND
ABERDEEN DEFEATS COLUMBIA
COLLEGE TEAM TOT.
Portlanders Are Nice Boys and Good Runners.
But Can't Play Ball With Aberdeen. About
Three Hundred People Witness Nice, Clean
Game.

The Aberdeen champions crossed bats
with the Columbia College team. Of
Portland, yesterday afternoon at Athletic
park. and, as usual, victory crowned
their efforts. The college boys showed
all kinds Of speed as base runners, but
in all around ball pla! ing are not in the
class with Aberdeen's pennant winners.
About three hundred fans witnessed
the game from the grand stand and
bleachers, and enjoyed the same to the
limit. The injury received by Hanson
last Sunday kept him out of the game.
and Belt took the box. His arm showed
soreness, and he occasionally dealt out
some easy ones to the visitors, but at no
time VAS the result in doubt. Twas
Aberdeen's game from the start.
Browns throwing arm was also y
little off color, and the collegiates used
the Jesse James method OF reaching
second on several occasions. Nethery,
OF Montesano, was given trial on 6rst,
and he took credit OF six errors, but
with coaching will learn to use the
stick. Knapp misjudged couple Of
high ones in the right garden, and will
hereafter be kept on the infeld.
Rochon's running catch in the center
was the only play OF the game that con.
tanned any ginger.
Columbia scored one in their half Of
the first, and Aberdeen two, and three
in the second. The college boys were
BANKED in the second, but began
swattlng in the third, scoring four and
tieing the score. One run each in the
next and goose eggs in the fourth caused
the fans TO look for close game, but
the locals batted Fredell all over the
field in the fifth, and scored five runs.
This settled it, and one more run in the
sixth and one for Columbia in the ninth
told the story, Of IL to 7, as it appears in
the score below:

THE FISHING INDUSTRY.

Somev1jy has iDl.ieI the evening

nuisance, and the reasons advanced are
quite humorous.

waste product 81 saw mill Or candy

hibit such methods, and, it is difficult To
zee wherein cannery would have any
more waste 70 dispose Of than do the
ehippers OF fresh fish, who clean and
pack their product for shipment.
Another objection raised by the Bulle.
tin--or the Counciman-is that Chinese
are employed in the cannery, and is a
trihe far fetched. Since the iorciblc
expulsion Of Cinnamon from Aberdeen,
IN 1886, the Monogolians have made no
effort to secure Judgment in this city,
and the canneriet, TO secure their help,
must agree 10 send them back 10 Astoria

More or less salMon packing has been
done in Aberdeen ever since the exodus
OF Cinnamon under this arrangement,
and this is theft ct objection that has
been raised. n the Chinnse entered

CONTRACTORS ORGANIZE.
Against High Priced Lumber. A Builder,
Exchange Organized.

Since the formation Of the City Retail
Lumber Co., considerable dissatisfaction
has been expressed by the contractors
and builders OF the city over the price
list established by the combine. This
dissatisfaction eliminated in a meeting
held Tuesday evening in the parlor Of
the Washington hotel, at which the
matter Of lumber prices was thoroughly
discussed.
About fifteen Of the leading builders
Of Aberdeen were present, and Build
mutual benefit OF its members. A reso.
luton was adopted pedging the mem,
bers to handle no Aberdeen lumber at
present prices, or while the present
system of selling prevails.
During the discussion that ensued
over the adoption of the resolution, it
was repeatedly stated that the Aberdeen

that OF other points IN Chehalis county.
one member citing an instance where
ne saved nearly 500 by purchasing a
bill of about $500 at Hoquiam. Others
told OF similar experience in dealing at
Elma and other points, and the consen-
sus OF opinion appeared TO be that the
high price exacted by Aberdeen mills
operated to discourage building to an
extent that operated against the general
welfare OF the city. az well as that OF the
contractors.

The letter OF Harold Preston, on The
first page. is sufficient to cause the
thinking voter to pause ere he casts his
vote for the republican ticket nominated
by the railroads at Tacoma yesterday.
Mr.. Preston is an honored republican,
yet he makes the statement that emo
republican in the state OF Washington
can aspire to political prcfcrment unless
he is willing to bend the knee to the
great railroad companies, and that to
him who will do their bidding in Office
and in convention and elsewhere no
political ambition may be too lofty"
Republicans who place country before
party should read and study that letter.
