 The day was ideal for baseball, and the teams and the public showed their appre- ciation. The former put up a first-class article of the national game, and the lat ter turned out in record breaking num- bers to see the former work.
 It was a day for the fans. Just as all the eyes of the world are turning towards the eastern seas to see the outcome of the great naval battle, so all eyes in Birmingham were turned towards the ball park yesterday afternoon to see which of the managers would steer his team to victory.

 Two More Runs.
 Three men were up and three down in the sixth inning for Montgomery. For Birmingham. Ragan went out from short to first but Hafford put the ball down the third base line and into the crowd, which was lined up at the end of the bleachers. A ground rule of two bags for each hit into the crowd had been . made, but the Montgomery bunch kicked for several minutes. Umpire Bassett all lowed a little kicking then sent them back to their places. but Hafford stayed on second. Dusty Miller swatted the sphere for a couple of bags into the cen ter garden and Hafford walked home. Ward was given a free walk to first, and then Dusty pulled off a neat steal to third base. Father Vaughan sur prised the Legislators by sacrificing and Dusty scored, while Ward went to sec ond Delehanty hit to third and was thrown out at first.
 The seventh and eighth did not pro- duce anything for the Montgomerians, but the Barons pushed two men across the plate in the eighth. Hafford led off with a single over the third base line and Dusty Miller made a neat sacrifice. Ward flew out to left field. but Father Vaughan drove the ball to center field for single and Hafford scored easily. The Father committed larceny to get to second. and it was a cnch for him to score minute later when Delehanty drove ball through Shannon, which the shortstop could not handle. Delehanty tried to steal second, but was thrown out at second by Pat Millerick, whose whip is still in working order. The Bar ons had five runs. and that was enough to win

Nothing to Arbitrate.

The lecture by DR.. Paxson OF the
University of Boulder delivered here
last Friday evening, was one of the
best ever heard in Greeley, but the
audience was so small that the talk
sounded like soliloquy to the
speaker. The subject was 'Arbitra-
tion," and evidently the Greeley
people believed like President Baer
Of the Pennsylvania coal truts few
years ago, that there was nothing to
arbitrate. Anyway the people did
not turn out to learn the Doctors
method of settling disputes. The
series of two lectures, of which Enos
a. Mills delivered the first, was for
the benefit Of the Greeley high
school reference library and that in
stitution is richer by just SIS.

FARMERS INSTITUTES.

The opportunity offered the people
of this section to secure a few dates
for farmers institutes, some time in
February should not be neglected.
There is nothing that for the time
and money expended will give the
people. and especially the farmers,
so much benefit and information
upon the very subjects that they are
most interested in as the gatherings
known as Farmers Institutes.
The last session vi the legislature
appropriated 5000 with which to
carry on institutes among the farm
ers for the two years following that
session. The Greeley district is en-
titled to its share of this free know
ledge, and it is worth having. Sew
eral of the professors of the Agricul-
tura. College at Fort Collins are
connected with the travelling inst!-
tute as instructors, and many other
men who have made success or
farming or stock raising are upon
the list. Ernest R. Bliss of Pleasant
Valley has been travelling over the
state giving lectures on potato rais-
ing at the various institutes.
Recently at Aspen when an insti-
tute was held there the merchants
of the town closed up the stores for
the greater part of the two days that
the teachers were there, and one Of
the evenings gave banquet in their
honor.
Not alone is it the farmers that
are benefited but course in do
nestle science is also taught for the
women. SO that every man and

VICTORY IS REMOTE
RAILWAY LITERARY BUREAUS
FAIL TO CONVINCE
Efforts to Counterfeit T. /, Popular De-
mand for Regulation Of Transports
ton Companies Are Being Met BY
Determined Opposition

DStVtUuutSo OppoosA'Ou
II the railroad presidents think
that they have overcome the popular
demand for government control Of
the rate making power they are about
to be disillusioned.
While the railroads have been ex-
erting every effort to cOunteract the
growing demand on the part OF the
public for rate legislation, those who
have suffered through determinations
and unjust rates have been covertly
at work preparing mine, which,
when exploded, will expose the abomi-
nations of the present system Of rate
making
While it would appear that the pres
idents and financial powers of the
railroads have permitted their fears
to be lulled to sleep by the fanciful
tales of their paid agents, of how they
have changed the public's mind the
men who were conducting the cam
paign for the shippers know that the
spark of popular enthusiasm only
smolders temporarily.
Attacks in Courts Planned
1t is purposed to attack in the
courts every railroad in the country
for habitual violation of the Sherman
antitrust act 1t is asserted that
through traffic committees, freight IS
sociations, and the L which fix in
their respective territories the rates
to be charged by all railroads, they
are violating that section Of the law
which prohibits combinations to pre-
vent free competition. Some of the
| greatest lawyers in the country are
at work preparing briefs against the
railroads, and the case of the shippers
has been strengthened materially dur
ing the last month by the decision OF
Judge Emory Speer of the United
States court of the southern district
of Georgia.
Since the Esch-Townsend bill passed
the lower house of congress, the rail-
roads have begun to appreciate the
real strength of the popular demand
for government control All OF the
large railroads in the country have
banded together for mutual protec-
tion, and Samuel Spencer, president
of the Southern railway, was put in
charge of the movement to stem the
tide of public opinion.
Publicity Bureau Opened
: A publicity bureau was established
with George ". S. Michaelis and
James D. Ellsworth, former newspa
per men, at the head, and they a.
once began systematic campaign
+ to win over the newspapers OF ths
country, and through them the peo
pie, to the idea that there is no rea
need for legislation. This bureau i
= still in operation, with offices in New
York, Chicago, Boston Kansas Cit.

agents who go about "joyyinging up
