Latham Signing Indians.


 Reports have como to the local direc- tors of the Indian Baseball team that will play here this summer that Man ager Latham has nearly completed his list in Indian Territory and will return to Selma next week with large num- Der signed He will then commence booking engagements with other inde- pendent teams in Alabama and adjoin- ing States.
 The Durant q. T.) Daily News says:
 There Is a movement well under way to organize In Durant a baseball club which shall be known as the 'Choctaw Indians. The leaders in the movement are O. F. Latham of Selma, Ala, who toured several States last year with the Greek Indians.' and Will Ham Sparger, the famous baseball twirler of the West. They propose to organize right away club which shall be composed of'Choctaws, believ- ing that they can make up as strong a team as there is in the South from the exceptional list of Indian twirlers here in the Choctaw Nation. They ex- pect to have the team organized and in active practice by the middle of the coming week, at which time they will begin giving exhibitions in this city which will continue for a month, after which they will start with the team on a tour of the States of Alabama, Geor- gia. Florida, Mississippi. South and North Carolina. Headquarters for the season will be made at Selma, Ala, the home of Mr. Latham.
 Tn the spring practice. which will be confined to Durant, the managers promise us many fine games. They will play teams of the North Texas League and the best clubs of the In- dian Territory and Oklahoma They are now wiring for the players they have selected and hope to be able to start the ball to rolling and the bats to whizzing Wednesday or Thursday of next week.
 '@The people of the States, as we'll as the people of the Indian Territory will be given some rare treats in baseball dom by this team of 'Choctaw Indians which as we all know will be the real article That It will prove a great ad- vertisement for Durant and the Choc- taw Nation can be easily seen.
 There are two good men behind this movement in the persons named. Sparger, known all over the West and South is a power in the box and will have the team put up some games that will open the eyes of the people in the States. Maybe so the heap big Choc- taws will scalp every team they tumble onto this year. Injun play ball like white man play poker--for all there is in it."

Bisbee daily review., 1905-08-08

three campaign books and through Democratic members of both houses of congress, the Republicans have refus- ed to allow a bin to reduce the duty on steel to be considered. Every oth- CT product of steel Is protected by the tariff, like steel rails are only on some articles the protection Is much greater such as barbed wire and other steel products that are used on the farm Not only does the American consumer pay the tariff tax, but also the further tax or profit that the steel trust sees it to Impose over and above the tariff rate. This it is enabled to do because 1t has eliminated competition both at home and from abroad-at home through combination and from abroad through the tariff.
 The American people having elected a Republican majority to the next con gross, who are stand patters and pledg. ed to this protection, there is but slight probability of relief until another con gress is elected next year. In the meantime the numerous tariff fostered trusts from steel to salt will continue like the railroads to extort "all the traffic will bear"

[. s 4. TEAM WINS FROM
 THE DOUGLAS REGULARS

Yesterday afternoon the Douglas Ripsnorters and Douglas Grays cross ed bats on the diamond at Lincoln park, and while the game was full of errors on both sides. it was a spirited game and one that was full of fun.
 Manager Lincoln of the park has had up a standing offer of two dollars and a half to the first man to put a ball over the fence and this was won the first pass out of the box yesterday afternoon by Givens of the c. & A. team, who caught Pitcher Robinson's ball just right and put it over the third baseman's head before the left fielder could get anywhere near the ball Civ ems had made home run.
 The merchants played a good game of ball yesterday and kept their score up close to that of the c. & A. boys, and when the game was finished the score stood 13 to II in favor of the c. & A. team.
 Day was out as center fielder for the Ripsnorters, Robinson as pitcher. Thornton at first base and Harry Ov- erlock as third baseman, while Batts was catcher. These alone make good team when they are in practice.
 The umpire, Brownie" Chamberlain also had a good eye with him yesterday and umpired a good game of ball. Brownies" decisions were correct and pleasing t6 the crowd in every ins tance yesterday.
 The Douglas team will leave here next Saturday evening and play the Fl Paso Colts.
 The following Sunday either Bisbee or the soldiers from Fort Huachuca will be played. Manager Day this nor ming received a letter from the sol diers asking for a game at an early date, to be played either at Bisbee or Douglas and more than likely they will be accommodated week from Sun day.

PROTECTION IS ROBBERY.
Eyes of Republican Partfsans Opened
 by the PresIdent.

Eyes of Republican Partfsans Opened
 by the President.
 When President Roosevelt declared that the material which Uncle Sam must purchase for the Panama canal Is 10 be bought in the cheapest market be struck a big blow for tariff re form. Nothing has opened the eyes of the hidebound Republican partisan so much as to know officially from the highest Republican authority how great the increased profits the trusts and combines are robbing him of un- der the fostering care of the protective tariff.
 The most powerful organ of protec. ton has been the New York Tribune, but even this champion of the sacred tarih is compelled to indorse the act of the administration in ordering the sup. plies purchased in the open market. The appointment of Whitelaw Reid, the owner and editor of the Tribune, as minister to England was probably the price paid for this support of the free trade policy.
 But the question that interests most of us more than the political gyra- tions of that Republican organ is, Why are the people to be robbed by the trusts under the guise of protection any more than Uncle Sam?
