The Glorious Fourth

Extensive preparations are be-
ing made by the various COM
mittees to make the celebration
of the 4th of July in this city one,
of the best ever held here. Suf-
ficient money was raised in a few
hours to insure the success of
, the undertaking financially and
the committees are hard at work
getting the program outlined and
the attractions secured. The
plan is to have everything free
so far as the attractions and
sports are concerned so that no
one need fear that there will be
any undue advantage taken Of
the people as is often the case at
celebrations.
The citizens Of Hope extend a
cordial invitation to all to come
and partake of their hospitality
on this National holiday and
those who acceptof the invitation
will be convinced that what Hope
undertakes is accomplished. In
another column will be found the
program of the days sports to
which other items will be added
as rapidly as the committees can
make arrangements.
This is to be the greatest day
in the history of Hope and every
person in town is interested in
seeing everything possible done

Broke Even

Last Saturday the base ball |!
team flying the colors of the
State Normal School at Mayville
came to Hope to try conclusions
with the home bunch of ball
tossers. Two games we're
scheduled, the first being called
at 4 D.. m. and the second at $50.
The first game was closely
contested and for that reason
developed into very interesting
affair. It required ten innings
to reach a conclusion. Oftedal
appeared on the mound for the
Normals and was touched up for
nine hits, which, when coupled
with two passes and six errors,
netted the home team eight
scores. Artie Nelson dished up
the crooked ones for Hope and
his, shoots we're found safely
eight times and these propped
up by five errors gave the visit
ors nine runs. Final score:
Mayville Normals 9, Hope 8.
The second game was Of a
| different character entirely and
was won by the home team in a
run away style in six innings.
Willie" Robinson essayed to
pitch for the Normals and about
all we can tru thfully say is Willie
pitched. Fourteen safe drives,
two of which were doubles. were
smashed out in six innings, net
ting twelve runs. Arthur G..
Nelson, the tall lad with the slim
disposition, still had few choice
benders saved up out Of the
!, wreck of the previous contest
and although he had finished a
ten inning game less than an
hour before, he went back to the
firing line and stuck like a hero,
winning his game in a walk, Five
!. hits, one a double, counted five
.. runs for Mayville, but that was
eight less than they needed.
The score by innings follows
First game

Says the Eugene Guard in an in
teresting review of some of the rail
road projects now under way in
western Oregon
"The building of the Coos bay
line seems TO us to mark the begin
ming of an era of railroad building
and commercial development that
will transform western Oregon into
one OF the most Dopulous and pros
porous sections of the United States.
Any time we may expect to hear of
the letting of contracts for the Ma
tron- klamath road, which will more
directly affect the Willamette valley
and Eugene, where It will connect
up with the city and suburban sys-
TEN soon to be built by the William
ette Valley Co. With all these in
creasing facilities for transportation
and a reasonable prospect that the
Oregon & Coast road may be able to |
consummate its plans of building
across Lane county to the Sluslaw
and down the coast. the influx of
population and increase in business
will be almost incalculabe during
The next five years"
The Guard has 1t eye open. These
.hlngs may be delayed a little while,
lut they are tolerably sure to come
oon.

iuard arrives is correct. The Jour &
