was the motion that for the coming
season the gate receipts should be
divided on a so percent basis with
the northern clubs. It was this which
gave Bert an dHarris sharp attacks
Of heart disease.
The northern clubs are getting 80
per cent away from home and they
are away from home about two-thirds
Of the time. 1t was this as much as
anything else which occasiOned the
deficits in the Portland and Seattle
clubs. They could not pay the big
salaries on 30 per cent Of the receipts
and break even.
The Bert-Harris faction SHE'D at
the proposition to turn over the big
profits they are making in the south
and declined to consider the motion.
The northern towns are held by iron
clad contracts for another season and
although the vote tied President Bert
decided the matter with his vote.
Then 1t was that some one pointed
out that to enlarge the league to eight
clubs, admitting Spokane and Fresno
and San Jose, would invalidate the
contracts and give the northern towns
an opportunity Of breaking their
agreements legally If they saw fit.
The danger was too great and for
this reason the southern clubs lined
up against admitting Spokane while
the northern towns voted solidly for
the admission Of the Empire city.
Bert's vote meant the profits for the
southern clubs and the further i'm
poverishment of the northern league.
or a different coast agreement and
new division of the receipts.
That is why Spokanes application
for a franchise was rejected at the
last minute.
MY diminutive friend, Shorty"
Hughes on the Seattle Times, than
whom no more aggressive sporting
writer can be found on the coast, Is
still handing that weak bunch of
Seattle magnates a few hard ones.
In regard to the rowdyism of the
coast players which went unpublished,
shorty speaks as follows:
HAS anyone heard of the rowdies.
Blankenship, Flood and Chase, being
punished by the moguls of the Pacific
Coast Lea que, who have been in ses-
sion this week. Blankenship slugged
a man In Seattle who had been one of
his strongest supporters, but who
dared print one day that Blankenship
was growing Indifferent to his work.
Tim Flood slapped Umpire Tom
Browns face and Husk Chance knock
ed Brown down and mussed him up
generally in Los Angeles. Chance
was punished by being appointed as
an umpire in place OF Brown, who
fled to Portland in fear for his life.
Blankenship was suspended, accord
ing to the "Angels" who run the
Seattle team, and the suspension
lasted until Blankenship got out of
the city, and was then suddenly for
gotten. Flood was not punished at

There hasn't been anything said in

Arizona in the halls of conrgess, where her interests were at stake.
 Coffee Al, the we'll known restau- rauteur of Phenix, was married some time since but did not let anyone know of it until some weeks after the oc- currence. When the affair was made public the Phenix Elks, of which he is a member fined him supper for the entire membership of the lodge. The fine was not for getting married but for failure to make his intentions known beforehand, so each individual could have the pleasure of purchasing hlm a wedding present.
 Tom Shultz received a telephone message from Phenix yesterday an- nouncing the serious illness of his mother there. Mrs. Shultz is nearly seventy six years of age and had been visiting in Phenix for some time, where she was taken sick and on Fri day had a stroke of paralysis and was reported to be in a critical condition last evening.

Raymond #. Walter of the United
States geological survey is expected
to return to western South Dakota
within few weeks to again take up
field work in connection with the ma
tional irrigation scheme along the
Belle Fourche river and its affiuents.
Mr.. Walter spent great part OF
last summer and fall upon this work
and Is still gathering data relative
to the amount of water available and
the area that may be irrigated by
government enterprise. Roughly it is
approximated that 175,0O0 acres of
arid land may be reclaimed. IL re-
mains to be seen whether or not 1t
can be reclaimed at a price within
reasonable bounds. Officials at United
States land Office in Rapid City, after
carefully investigating the situation,
believe that il may, and look for a
favorable report by the engineers and
the secretary of the interior, who has
authority to order the building ct
dams and the construction of irrigat-
ing canals.
The project furnishes striking ex-
ample of the bounty of the govern
ment. 1t is understood that If the
plan Is found feasible. II sufficient wa
ter may be conserved for the irriga-
tion of this large tract at a cost Of
not to exceed $40 an acre, the recon-
mendation of the work will be made
by the engineers in the field, II is
not understood that any limit Is es-
tablished by law, but that $40 il re-
garded as the limit Of practicability
This land will then be sold to home
steaders at the actual established
cost, with incidental fees added. Pay
ments may be made in ten yearly 10
stallments.
IL $40 per acre Is the rate fixed up
on, the payments will amount to 81
an acre per year, which is really less
than the water rent itself would COS
under private enterprise. At the en'
Of the ten years the homesteadeI

may have cost him $1,000 should b
