when the locals went to piece.
and let in five runs, none of which
were earned,-and the umpire

A grand ball in the opera house

done in q most creditable manner.
Our cornet band was out all
day, playing some beautiful over
lures. The program was Of I'M
usual merit and the sports all
well appreciated, especially the
game Of "three old cat" by the
bishopric Of the two, wards. The

The game Of baseball between

a'ed thorough enjoyment for hun
ireds of spectators; but the
Ogdenites were so pleasant and
congenial we could almost wish
to have seen them do better. Our
boys, Of course, carried of all the
honors; but this is getting to b.
such an old, old story. The score
stood 9 to 8.
| Last week the Preston 81 $50
team came down and carried
home two or three "goose eggs"
while our team did do 'em for
about 81 points, without any bluff
ing or hot air, either. We have
not heard from Preston since, Tut
conclude they got the dose that
sent them to the tall timber. The
angels Of heaven were all busy
weeping out of sympathy and an.
! guish for the poor boys, while
now our boys will know neither
sorrow, compassion or forgive
ness. We took the game with as
little effort and far more ease
than little Willie has after eating
Christmas pie. Now, Mr.. Editor,
you may bet on Preston when
} they play Salt Lake, but FOR
heavens sake don't get duped in.

play with our "savants."

RAILROADS OBJECT
TO new RULES

Olympia, July 9.-Objections to the
operation Of the new rules of the state
railway commission have been fled by
the Great Northern, the Northern Pa.
cific and the Oregon Railroad and
Navigation Companies and q hearing
will be held in the matter. The rail.
roads allege that the rules are unfair
and would entail unnecessary incon.
venience and expense on them and ult-
imately on the commerce Of the state.
The rules apply to passenger traffic
and among them the following are the
most important:
Requiring that tickets be good thirty
days after sale.
Requiring that unused mileage be re-
deemed at the rate sold.
Requiring that waiting rooms at all
stations having agents be kept open at
least thirty minutes before the arrival
Of trains.
Requiring that trains be bulletined
thirty minutes before scheduled time
Of arrival. and that bulletins be posted
in case Of accident or delay
A protest is also fled against the or
der requiring the keeping Of records
Of freight cars ordered and loaded.

JAPANESE Head TAX
Will Be REPEALED

Ottawa, Ont, July 1.-THE $25
head tax which the British Columbia
legislature is putting on all japanese
entering British Columbia will not re-
main in force long.
The Dominion government will veto
or disallow it as on former occasions,
for four reasons: first, a head tax i'm
posed can only be by statute, and at
present Chinese are the only people so
Disseminated against; second, this
cannot be done according to the terms
Of the British-Japanese treaty; third,
many Of the Japanese coming from
Honolulu to Canada are already Unit
ed States citizens, and consequently
are free to enter Canada; fourth, the
Grand Trunk Pacific officials need
Japanese to rush work on their rail-
way or it will not be finished within
contract time.

JAPANESE BOYCOTT
EXPECTED IN TOKYO

Tokyo, July 9.-In we'll informed
quarters there is an inclination to
smile at the denial Of the associated
chambers Of commerce of an intention
to inaugurate boycott against Amer.
lean goods. While there is no doubt
that the chambers of commerce would
not, as such, take any action of that
nature. yet In this connection, how.
ever, it is necessary to remember that
public bodies, like chambers of com.
MERGE, do not give out positive infor.
nation in a matter, the consumma.
ton of which requires great secrecy.
and also the Japanese capacity to keen
a secret, fact which was remarkably
proven in the late Russian war.
1t is possible that the public may be
surprised at any time at the sudden
announcement of strong combination
committed to q policy to buy no more
American goods. The report that the
United States would augment it's naval
force in the Pacific has not attracted
much attention here.
