Base Ball.

And it wasn't exactly base bali
game either, not so far as Troy was
concerned. w. S. Miller brought
down from Helmer a bunch of pretty
stiff players, who, had the Troy grounds
been fit for fast work, would have made
their score larger and kept the Troy
team from getting enough runs to
brag over. Troy found the Helmer
pitcher only during the first inning and
then went fishing in the atmosphere
for safe hits. Anything that the home
boys hit out was eaten up in quick
order by Miller's boys who could play
just little bit Fred Polk was in the
box for Troy, with Henly Hays behind
the bat, and their exhibition of how
these positions ought not to be played
was certainly never excelled. Polk
had neither speed, control nor the
semblence of curve and the way the
visitors landed for long drives and lots
of them would have put pitcher out
of the box before the game was half
out. But it didn't fsze Polk, who,
when he did happen to poke ball
over the base anywhere near helmer
batter got FIVE minute rest while one
of the Troy felders hiked back into
the brush after the ball that looked
like it never would stop going. Out
side of the battery the Troy team
played creditable ball, making few,
if any more errors than the visitors.
The score at the end of the game was
to 24, but Helmer could, had they
tried. have made it look whole lot
worse

Crop Prospect.

Crop prospects in this section were
never brighter. Sunday morning
dawned with rain pouring down and
during the afternoon rain continued
falling at intervals. While the farmers
would like to see more fall no one is
complaining for there is enough to
give the grain a fine start. Gardens
are also looking good, while the fruit
crop will be large one. The frost
that injured some earlier sections did
little or no damage around Troy, giving
US assurance of full crop Of every
description. And then the indications
are that prices will be above the aver
age.

Is This Socialism?

One of the greatest travesties on
justice ever presented to this state is
the position taken by the leading
Socialists of Idaho, Washington, and,
for that matter, the whole nation. This
week we picked up The Socialist, ."
edited by Herman F. Titus in Seattle,
who, speaking of the great conspiracy
cases now on in Boise, abuses the
lawyers who are defending the prison
ers, accusing Attorney Nugent Of be-
traying his clients by assisting in de
featirg for the important position OF
District Judge the Socialist candidate.
Hermon Titus, the socialist, openly
avows that if in the power OF himself
and Debs, and that class of men, they
would have placed upon the bench a
man bound to help our brothers. +"
This is the justice, and the kind of a
fair trial Titus and Debs and the APP
peal to Reason and a thousand other
rank socialists want. This is the kind
of judiciary they would substitute for
bench supposed to act with fairness
and impartiality. This is the manner
these men would have those charged
with crime tried, is it? A judge
bound to see that he who bears
membership in labor union, or who
votes the socialist ticket is above
prosecution, and if arrested, even for
murder, be turned loosel They would
place upon the bench of every state
men like Eugene V. Debs; pack our
juries with bowling anarchists and
fanatical followers OF Emma Goldman,
and accept as evidence the word of nc
man not identified with their cause,
and regular subscriber to the Appeal
to Reason. By their own evidence
the socialists show their utter disregard
for justice, and in the case at bar are
doing all in their power to prevent the
accused from getting fair trial. They
are demanding that there be no trial,
and leaving nothing undone to hinder
the state in determining the guilt Of
innocence of those accused of murder
Is this socialism,? Is this the kind o
justice they would establish through
out the land? 1t looks like it.

TAFT's WORLDS TOUR.
Secretary of War VIII Visit Kaiser
Edward and President FaI1ieres.


BERLIN, Nov. 9.-The kaiser will
see Secretary Taft at Osborne House,
Isle Of Wight, during his majesty's
visit to England. A message convey
ing this wish was sent through the
German embassy at Washington, 1t be-
ing understood that Mr.. Taft has final
ly decided to return to the United
States by way of Europe. 1t Is re-
garded as likely that Mr.. Taft Will also
seek an audience of King Edward, as
otherwise it might appear to be too
much of demonstration for the Amer
lean statesman to visit the German
emperor ON British soil without pay
ing equivalent respect to the king.
SO much has been said about Mr..
Taft planning TO see the emperor that
some >of the other governments have
seemingly become curious in regard to
whether anything is intended by the
step taken by the American govern
ment Ambassadors Bryce and Jus.
serand, II Is asserted here, have al
ready made inquiries on the subject at
the state department in Washington.
and 1t is further asserted that there is
a feeling at the foreign offices of Lon
don and Paris that Mr. Taft would be
neglecting King Edward and Presi-
dent Fallleres If he did not ask to see
them on his way home or If he stop
ped only at st. Petersburg and Berlin
while on his way back to the United
/ States.
