place for that kind of a saloon. Bishop
Potter received a great deal of harsh
criticism for his actions in regard to
this saloon. A good deal of it was bas-
ed on prejudiced narrowness. Some
was malicious. But on the whole he
did not suffer in public esteem from it,,
and so his reputation will probably not
be seriously affected by the closing Of
the place or the comments that it will
bring out. Those who know Bishop
Potter and he is widely known by his
words and his works, know that he is
a sincere and able man; that he has a
mind open to truth; that he is an in

THE SUBWAY TAVERN.

The closing of the subway tavern or
saloon, which has become so closely
identified with Bishop Potter, will no
doubt cause great deal Of comment,
Just as the opening of the place did.
By some it will be looked on as joke
on the good bishop. By some no doubt,
it will be looked on as a divine rebuke
to him, an answering Of his opening
prayer in a better and wiser way
than his human thought could plan,
The probabilities are th,t it is closed

be put on as the result of grand jury

the outcome of the fight that is being
waged in the First Ward over the
election of councilman. Councilman
William Glasford, the present incum-
bent, and Park Commissioner John F.
Mclean are the respective candidates
for the honor. Glasford is identified
with the crowd that has been opposing
the dominant faction of the republican
party in Walla Walla city and county.
while Mclean is being championed by
the other side of the republican party.
About ten days ago friends of Glas-
ford discovered that quite a number of
the employees at the penitentiary were
being registered and an investigation
was begun. 1t is alleged that Mrs. N.
E. koontz, who has the lodging house

Close Score.

1t was a pitchers battle on the Gar
den City ball field yesterday afternoon
when the Fruit Pickers and the new
Pendleton team opened the series of
four games that is to be played this
week.
Jerry" King was in the box for the
visitors, while O'Brien did the twirl-
ing for the locals. Both pitchers were
at their best and proved effective at
critical moments during the nine in
nings. Each were found for seven safe
hits which were kept we'll scattered
throughout the contest. AS far as the
strike outs were concerned, King had
the best of it, having succeeded in
fooling eleven, while O'Brien got
seven to his credit.
The game throughout was the best
that has been played in Walla Walla
| this season, and tine fans were given
splendid exhibition of the national
game. 1t was close from the start to
finish.
1t was only by lucky chance that
Pendleton won the game by score of
five to four. The Walla Walla team
put up an errorless game in the field
and had not Donovan allowed one BAH
to pass him in the first half of the
ninth, victory would have been perched
on the banner of the Fruit Pickers.
Danny" Lankard, a former Fruit
Picker, was behind the bat for the
Pendleton team, and he played the
game of his life against his old COM
rades of the ball and bat. The score
