road the exquisite Loamshire country fell

The sturdy little horses breasted the hill

loads to the summit-sightseers for the

many loads had gone up that day, for the

loneliness again. There was little sound
to be heard in the place beyond the monot-

the dull reverberation of a blasting charge

The most pleasing feature of yes
terday's dOuble-header, aside from the
fact that we made both games count
in the percentage column, was the
manner in which the locals clouted
the ball We not only hit the ball
hard, but what is of far more impor-
lance, we nit Opportunely. The first
game wasn't in doubt after the fourth
when Cheek put the ball over the left
field fence for a homer, with two men
on bases. The second game promised
20 be a pitchers battle until Graham,
Shour and Meek in turn gave exhibit
lions of long-distance throwing, which
melted the locals four runs
LUndin and Ballet were the oppos-
ing twirlerS in the first round with
Hagerman holding the Indicator in the
absence of the regular umpire Stuart.
Both pitchers were hit hard, but Lun-
din succeeded in keeping the visitors
hits more scattered. while his sup
port was faultlesS. Rockford started
off with a rush in the first inning, a

scored Lister was hit in the ribs
and walked. Then came the little
man who has been doing such lovely
work behind the bat. Without any
preliminaries he landed on one of Mr.
Pallets shoots and the ball hit the
Twelfth street pavement. After Van
dine had gone out, Wanner
placed nice single. Durkee
also singled. but Hesslcr went
out to the pitcher. An error, a base
on balls and timely singles by Swee-
ney and Lister gave us three more in
the fourth. In the fifth. after Hessler
and Lundin had gone out, Thornton
managed TO get hit and Sweeney was
there again with a timely twO-bagger.
Two were scored in the sixth. Cheek
proved good waiter and was given
a free ride. Vandine then came to the
bat with a three-bagger up his sleeve
and il didn't take him long to shake

RIVER RIPLETS.

The steamer Sidney, which was due
TO arrive in Rock Island this morning
from st. Paul will not reach this port
until S o'clock tomorrow morning, she
having been delayed on her trip. The
Sidney being of a lighter draft than
other Diamond 10 line boats, she will
be able TO run more easily and with
less difficulty than other boats of this
line during low water stages. The
stage of water is at present somewhat
better than it was. the recent heavy
rains having caused 4 rise. Previous
to the rains. however, rivcTmen were
uneasy and feared that navigation was
gong to be difficult. II is thought that
in the near future there will lie an
other fail Raft boats especially are
experiencing trouble in towing. and I'M
less the river does stay at its present
stage or rise, a depression in the raft
ing business will be inevitable.
The Dubuque and J. S. were north,
and the Ruth, Emily and WinOna were
in and out.
The stage of water was 3.2J.

three men face him and only five balls
were knocked outside the circle,
Thornton getting four, and Wanner
capturing one.
Sweeney evidently forgot that the
first batting bee was over, for after
Thornton had been called out on
strikes, he hit the fall for two sacks
But he could get no farther, Lister
flying to center and Cheek grounding
to short. We should have had one
in the third but for dumb coaching.
Lundin singled and Liebhardt placed
a neat sacrifice. With Lundin ON sec

and Lundin instead of being held at

House, has not distinguished himself
since his sudden elevation to pronli-
nence, for either good manners or
good judgment. His behavior at the
st. Louis convention, addressing Mr..
Bryan as If he were an inferior and
indulging in remarks towards that
great leader of a very intemperat2
kind produced the impression OF 4
small man with large views of his own
importance. He has now exhibited
an entire want of judgment, for one
so highly placed, in respect to mat
ter of the greatest importance to the
South. He has forestalled the opin-
ions of his colleagues in relation to
the subject of a reduction of South
ern representation in a way that must
embarrass them in approaching such
weighty subject.
The well-informed Washington cor
respondent of the Baltimore Sun re-
fers to this latest act of Mr.. Williams
in the following we'll considered words:
Some regret is expressed among
Southern Democrats who are assem-
bling here for the opening of CON
gress that Hon. John Sharp Williams,
the leader of the minority in the
House, should have spoken as he did
last week with reference 30 tn" suS-
gestion of a reduction III the repre-
sentation of the South in Congress. 1t
is not the common belief that the
South is going to be deprived Ot any
of it's representation. though 1t is
admitted as a possibility; but what
ever the future may develop, it is
the opinion of many very forceful
Southern Democrats with whom /
have talked that it is unwise to antici-
pate a thing not desired and not dis
tinctly foreshadowed. More decidedly
is the opinion expressed that it is
not JudicIous to publicly programme
a policy of defiance to meet action

SOME RESULTS OF THE WATTS
LAW.

The best results OF the Watts law
can never be Written. They are found
i'm the Punishment of places of disre-
pute in country districts, in removing
temptation from boys. in putting
school houses in place of stills, and In
removing from political domination
interests that put the saloon and the
still above every other consideration.
These are blessed fruits of this new
law which will be better as the law
is better understood and better en-
forced.
Statistical results are also grat,.v-
ing. During the past years the nuinoer
of retail liquor dealers has been re-
duced from 1.1S5 to SIT. The Watts
law has decreased the grain distiller-
les from 392 to rs. The wholesale
liquor dealers have been reduced from
SO to So. Before the Watts law was
enacted North Carolina distilleries
consumed 2S2,714 bushels of corn and
other grain. Last year the operating
distilleries consumed only 146,436
bushels. Under the Watts law farm
ers may convert their fruit into brandy
and the number of fruit distilleries
has increased from 442 to 462, which
now produce 54,963 gallons, nearly al
of which is apple brandy
These figures show why the revenue
doodles and gaugers and liquor dealers
hate the Watts law.
