COULDN'T HIT
Jasper Defeated Because OF In
ability to Solve Kane's Curves.

For five brilliant innings the Tracy
City and Jasper teams battled at JAS
per Saturday afternoon for the suprem-
acy with neither side getting score.
In the sixth Tracy broke the ice with
safe hit to left field, which brought
in a run, a base on balls having prev
iously been given. In the seventh and
eight galaxy of errors with two clean
hits fixed the business for Tracy City
with five more runs, none earned.
Minnis pitched for Jasper, but weak
ened in the seventh and was replaced
by Johnston. whose support was very
ragged. Jasper lost the game through
inability to hit safely the fine pitching
| of Kane, who threw everything with
speed to burn. Jasper's heaviest hit
ters famed repeatedly. Kane is the
fastest pitcher that has been seen there
for some time, even the wonderful
Jones, who pitched the tie game 3 to B
last year for Pikeville on the same
grounds, being hit harder.
For Tracy good work was done by
| Weisener at third base, but the team
really had very little to do outside of
the battery work, which was fine. AS
all are fine players it would have been
interesting to see them handle them
selves with hits coming sharply at
them.
For Jasper good work was done by
Dixon, who played his first match
game, Spears, Alexander, and Lee.
Hill secured Jasper's first safe hit in
the third and stole second and third
bases, but was left there, as was
Spears in the first inning. Minnis
pitched his usual heady game, and his
weakening was unfortunate for his
team who were easily holding the Wis
itors by getting under the flies and
mailing the grounders and liners.
! 1t was nice game, even if the score
was one sided, and enjoyed by the
large crowd present. There was NO
roughness to MARI the contest. Base

sport and can't be beat.

The refusal of the New York cOun- ty republican committee to endorse Governor Hughes for the presidency constitutes a severe setback for the presidential boom of that executive, says Washington writer. The fact is that MT Hughes, who is really a resident of New York city and in sympathy with all the hatred of Pre- sident Roosevelt which the Wall street gamblers and the railroad man. ipulators feel toward the president, has been making insinuatiOns in his speeches which reflected discredit on the president and which showed how little he was in sympathy with that form of republicanism, which is al most democracy, for which MT Roose- welt stands. The governor was mis- led by the intensity of the hatred of Roosevelt among his associates and thought it quite safe to throw mud at the man whom they all hate. That he made mistake is clearly shown by the action of the New York commit tee. Most of the republican politi- clans still hate Roosevelt and they hate Taft too, but they are too smart to make the mistake of thinking that the rank and file of the party hate them.

 tiOnal committee in accepting the of-
 fer of SI00.0 000 in cash from Denver

There can be no attempt to cOerce the con- ventiOn on platform or candidate for the democratic committee will have the money in it's war chest before the convention acts. It was purely matter of business and the only pe0- pie that have any cause for kicking are those delegates or democratic vis- itOrs to the convention who are called upon to pay greater railroad fares than they would have had to nay had the convention been held in ChfeaEo or Louisville It virtually amounts to Denver making a subscription to the aenOcratic national committee of

JUDGE FAVORS PETTIBONE.
Says Orchards Testimony Has Not
 Been Amply Corroborated.

Says Orchards Testimony Has Not
 Been Amply Corroborated.
 Boise, Ida, Dec. 25.-BefOre hearing arguments on the motion for an in- structed verdict of acquittal filed by the defense in the trial of George A. Pettibone, Judge Wood announced his conclusions on the question of cOrrobO- rative evidence and stated that there has not been sufficient corroboration of Harry Orchards testimony on the killing of Governor Steunenberg alone to warrant conviction. He also said that cOrroboration was necessary to establish conspiracy and invited ar gument as to whether or not such cor roboratiOn had been given by the state and whether or not the defendant had been connected with that conspiracy.
 The conclusions of the court mean that either the jury will be instructed to acquit the defendant or that the trial will proceed on the proposition that the state is not required to con meet PettibOne with the Steunenberg murder it being only necessary to show that conspiracy to murder ex- isted, that the defendant on trial was member of that conspiracy and that the killing of Steunenberg was an incl dent thereto. A ruling on the motion will be made tomorrow.

Finances may have much to dc with the next election. Chairman Tawney of the house committee on appropriations, has advised the speaker that the estimates of eX- penses for the coming year exceed the estimated receipts by $100,00O,- 900. That is big sum and monu- ment to republican extravaganza. Some of the ablest financiers predict a general retrenchment of business which will mean considerable de- crease in the income of the govern- ment and if the republicans create a treasury deficiency in place of the big surplus the country has long enjoyed, they will be severely punished at the polls,

Democrats generally regret the re- cent fist fight which occurred in the house of representatives between Messrs Williams and DeArmond. Both are men of advanced years who have won the respect of the country by their long and creditable service in the house and that they should have so far forgotten themselves as to have engaged in a rough and tumble fight is to be sincerely re- gretted. The immediate occasion of the quarrel was a misunderstanding between them regarding the commit tee assignment of a Missouri member, but of course back of that lay the rivalry between the two men for the position of democratic leader. Mir DeArmond made an earnest fight for the honor during the fall and Mir Williams won out. MT DeArmond thought that as Mr Williams had been elected at the primaries of his state to the senate, he might stand aside for some other member of the house when it came to the honor of democratic leadership, while Mir Williams was unwilling to conclude his career in the lower chamber with less honor than he had enjoyed for some time past. It is expected that these men. both of whom are essen tial to the best interest of the demo- crats in the house. will be brought together by friends and that remem- brance of their encounter will be hushed up in so far as that is pos sible.

$75,000, for the actual expenses of the convention are but $25,000, and those delegates with visitors who have to pay the larger railroad fare and expenses are assessed this extra amount by the Denver entertainers when the time comes. Tainted money is always secretly paid, the Denver bonus is paid openly and above board and there is no possible way in which there can be anything improper in receiving it. It will be mighty handy to the committee and as "our friends the enemy" pay the most of the mon ey 1t may prevent them from making their usual donation to the republi- can corruption fund, which is a double gain to the democracy.

JOHNSON FOR THREE CENT PIE
Mayor of Cleveland Opens War on the
 Park Cent Prices,

Cleveland. Dec. 25.-Having won for the people of this city three cent car fare, Mayor Johnson has started on the trail of the nickel sandwich. the five cent plate of ice cream anl the nickel pie. The time honored minimum rate of ] cents for these edibles is to be abolished in the public parks and a three cent rate established. It is even contemplated to cut the price of coffee from to 3 cents cup. and merchants who have had park priviliges are won- dering where the reduction is going to stop.
 Mayor Johnson has decided that the people have been paying too much for what they lave received in the public parks. He figured that there was suffi- cient profit in the three cent sandwich and pie to satisfy any reasonable park merchant. He therefore sent letter to the park commissioners suggesting that hereafter many of the commodi- ties that have sold for cents be re- duced to 3 cents. The commissioners asked new bids for privileges on that reduced scale of prices.

A MISSION FOR WOMEN VOTERS

If the women of oregon had the
elective franchise long enough to pass
a law making an eight-hour day for
working girls in the factories, laun-
dries, offices and sweat shops of Port
land and other Oregon cities, that
would be glory enough.
The men have been in charge of af-
fairs since the state was organized.
Political parties have boasted of their
loyalty to labor, of their patriotism,
their progress, while all the time,
under the noses of these hypocritical
politicians have toiled helpless women
and girls, working for but pittance
of fair wages for II, IA, 16 hours per
day.
If only the mothers of oregon had
the ballot long enough to rectify this
condition, that would be sufficient
justification for equal suffrage. If the
women surrendered their votes after
accomplishing that work, they might
well be proud of their brief career
as voters.

PUBLICITY APPRECIATED.

The people who ride on trains and
whose friends ride on trains, and
that includes about everybody, will be
glad to know of the new policy of
the o. R. & N. by which all possible
facts concerning wrecks and accf-
dents on the rail will be given to the
press as soon as these facts reach
the offices of the company.
The old policy of concealing facts
about wrecks, while it has done the
company no good in any conceivable
way, has done much to build up an
tipathy 10 railroads in general. Peo-
pie have felt that they were entitled
20 facts, as soon as it was possible
TO secure them, concerning wrecks in
which their friends may have been
endangered. Now they will get these
facts.
This is in line with other progress
sive policies of the o. R. & n. and is
a long step in advance.

MORE PAVING WANTED.

AS the benefits of Pendleton's two
streets of paving become more and
more apparent, the demand for more
paving grows.
II is fully believed now, that had
the paving plant remained in the city
until after the special election pro-
viding for numerous public improve
ments, it would have found employ
ment all this season in laying more
paving. There is a demand now for
almost as much paving as was laid
at first. If the W. & c. r. railroad
track was off Webb street it is very
probable that residents and property
owners on that street would be will
ing to pave at least seven or eight
blocks-four or five from Main street
each way.
AT least four blocks could be paved
on Alta, and Court street west of
Main could be paved for several
blocks, as well as Cottonwood between
Court and Webb
The people have just begun to ap-
preciate paving. They see how II
helps. They understand its true
value TO the city and as 1t is not
costly they would be glad to proceed
With IT indefinitely.

UNCLE SANS FARM IN ALASKA.

The small herd of Galloway cattle
introduced at the government agri-
cultural experiment station at Kenai,
year ago has thrived in the new
country The animals were stabbed
for nearly six months Of the year, and
during that time were fed on hay
grown in the vicinity.
Alaskan fodder seems to agree we'll
with the Scotch cattle, for reports are
received of excellent butter and
cheese being made from the milk. The
butter, neatly put UP in paraffin pa
per, is sold at the station for the
moderate price Of 35 cents a pound.
The experiment may be pronounced
a success, and dairying in Alaska will
gradually increase until it becomes an
important Industry, and doubtless II
VIII not be many years before the can
ned substitutes now so extensively
consumed in this district, will be plen-
tifully replaced by real" milk and
the imports of butter and cheese from
the United States reduced materially.
This season herd of Galloways has
been installed on Kodiak Island.

STRAIN GUARDS THE TAXES.

A number of business men have
asked the East Oregonian why AS
SCISSOR C. P. Strain of this county, is
opposed to local train being placed
in service on the o. R. & n. between
Portland and Pendleton.
Mr.. Strain has gone so far in his
opposition to the local train as to send
the o. R. & n. officials a statement
giving as his belief that not per cent
of the people of Umatilla county
travel on these trains and only this
small proportion would therefore be
interested in better or worse train
service.
He is opposed to a local train be-
cause of the heavy expense of operat-
ing trains on the O.. R. & n. 1t is
estimated that the cost of operating
the local train between Pendleton
and Portland would be about s150,OO0
per year. Mr.. Strain believes that
this reduction in the total earnings
of the company will tend to lower
valuations of o. R. & N. property He
is interested in keeping up a high
standard of earnings on the system
to form a high basis of taxation.
Mr.. Strain has no selfish interest
in the matter and defends his position
with a highly practical theory which
he is able to explain perhaps in his
own way. He has raised the assess
ment of the o. r. G. N. company in
this county to a fair basis and does
not wish to see that basis of assess
ment reduced by the expenditure of
large sums from the totar earnings on
what might prove to be non-profitable
trains.
He is simply guarding the taxes and
assessment of Umatilla county and
believes that a costly local train fore
ed into service would tend to lower
o. R. & n. assessments and that the
people would lose more in taxes than
they would gain by the additional
train service

TO THE WRONGDOER.

1 wish to say a word here to the
man who has begun to do dishonest
things-to the novice in crookedness.
For no other readers are these words
intended.
When you read this, stop and think.
Why is it that you take property that
does not belong to you? Is 1t not be-
cause you think you will gain some
thing? If it could be proven to you
that you would gain nothing, would
you have any desire to do It? No
man willingly goes into a losing game.
Suppose you get caught-you will
readily agree that you have gained
nothing. Suppose you are not caught
you only get stronger notion that
you could do it again and not be
caught.
The more you do it the more bold
you get until some day-sure as can
be-you will get caught. Then you
lose everything, all you seem to have
gained, and, more than that. you lose
responsibility, self-respect, and liber-
ty The odds are heavily in favor of
your getting caught. If you gamble,
would you stake your liberty and man.
hood against a few dollars? That's
virtually what you do when you are
dishonest in any degree-like betting
a million to one.
But there is a far higher reason
than fear of punishment which should
impel you to turn back now and do
right. Right doing leads to all that
is worth having in the world. 1t is all
that can satisfy. You know what is
right-and you risk nothing but have
everything to gain in doing right
