MINOR LEAGUE PROPOSED.
Walla Walla Wants to Play Baseball
During 1907.

During 1907.
The Walla Walla Statesman starts
off the baseball season with the fol-
lowing Introductory:
A minor league to include Walla
walla, Pendleton, North Yakima and
Ritzvile, Is the favorite baseball talk
just now.
It seems to be the idea that mem
bership In the big league might be
too expensive proposition for Walla
walla. II Portland goes in the North
west league It would take a pile OF
money to buy q team which would be
in the class with the one in which she
would in all probability get, say some
of the fans.
They are, therefore, skeptical about
the advantages Of trying to get in the
fast company but seem to think a
speedy little minor league would Just
about fill the bill for 1907.
They assert that whatever league
Walla Wall goes in she must have a
winning team II 1t is to get support,
and to get winning team In the
Northwest league would take $4,000
at least.

HAVE YOU WEAK LUNGS?

said n member of the Pendleton Drug

physicians everywhere have recog-
nized the value of cod liver oil for
coughs, colds, bronchitis, consump-
tIon and all wasting diseases, but, un-
fortunately, few could take It and de-
rive any benefit from its use on ac-
count Of the indigestible oil which II
contained.

tains in a concentrated form all of the

With the street car line extended

very serious objection to Broaddus
Institute being moved to the hand
some forty acre site just west of
that town, which Bridgeport citi-
zens propose to donate to the In
stitute. The school is greatly han
dicapped by its present location ow-
Ing to the size as we'll as the place.
The grounds are entirely inadequate
and the location is not at all deslra-
BILE for big school, such as Broad
dus is destined to be. II proper
measures can be taken for its ad-
vancement. There is a basis for
the belief that the board of trus-
tees will look with favor on the
Bridgeport project. when the full
assurance is given that the promised
twenty-five thousand dollars is rails
ed. In this connection the old
grounds could be disposed of for a
large sum of money. which together
with the amount Bridgeport pro-
poses to give and what it is believed
could be raised easily from other
sources. would pay for buildings
second to none in educational cir
cles in West Virginia. 1t is hoped
the street car line will he extended,
that the Bridgeport undertaking will
be successful and that favorable
action will be taken by the board OF
trustees OF the school. The object
ion may be raised that such move
would take the school away from
G'arksburg. but such would not be
the case as In very short time at

The County Court.

The following complimentary and
quite sensible editorial taken from
the Grafton Republican IS an esti.
mate of the county court of this
county that papers which are indulg-
ing in harsh and unjust criticisms
Of the court would do well to profit
from, If they have the least sense OF
fairness and right left:
The members of the Harrison
county court are made of the right
stuff This court has inst Instituted
suit against the Short Line Rail-
road Company and the Baltimore &
Ohio abroad Company to recover
damages done to certain roads in the
county along the Short Line railroad.
Under the franchise granted the
Short Line, which later became a
part OF the B. & o., It was stipulated
the company should repair railroads
destroyed or damaged with Just as
good roads as the old ones. and this
the company has failed to do. The
county court has waited as long as
patience usually demands and will
now take the bull by the horns"
as It we're and see If a due process
Of law will not make the big cor
poration toe the mark There's to
the success of the project The
county roads should not be destroy.
ed or damaged by any company OF
corporation. and when so destroyed

vicious. but in addition often die

people. Even propositions good in
themselves, pass up to the execu-

which can only lead to the best re-

worthy of consideration. 1t is the
custom here, as well as other states,
to reserve until the eleventh hour
of a session those bills which are
most important. rush them throug

Republican representing the Second
Congressional district of Tennessee,
has declared in favor of the election
of Roosevelt for another term. He
said that II again nominated, Roose-
welt would carry several Southern
states, as the country wanted him
have an opportunity to finish the
Panama Canal and the mighty re-
form measures for which he stands.
He said 1t would be national calam-
ity to make change this time.
Mr.. Hale is right in reference to
change, If that change should be
from the Roosevelt policies. and
perhaps, no other man could carry
out those policies so successfully and
vigorously as Mr.. Roosevelt himself,
hut. In the event Mr.. Roosevelt is
not renominated. it appears that 1t
would be far better to elect a man
Of his own choice, In whom he has
confidence and who he knows would
carry them out, than to turn to an
other political party that has never
demonstrated successful accomp-
f, lishment of any OF the policies 1t
advocates, as evidenced by the VIII
son-Gorman tariff law. when free
trade had been promised.
And, If 1T be true, as Mr.. Hale
states, that change would be a
national calamity, all that need be
done to avert that is for the people
to force Mr.. Roosevelt to serve the
country another term.

Cowards Bringing.

The county court is composed of
honorable men-citizens who have
lived in the county all their lives
and commanded the respect of their
neighbors all these years. Their
Official actions are open and above
board and no dishonor attaches to
them in the slightest particular as
every one knows. Yet, because they
carry out the wishes of majority OF
one OF the cities in the county on a
particular proposition and ratify the
action of a city council elected to
office by those who now attack the
county court, that body is held up in
the limelight by set OF towards as
dishonorable and untrue to the trust
reposed in 1t by the people. The
attack is SO base, so untrue, so I'M
Just. so unwarranted. that 1t merely
rebounds upon the heads of those
who made it and heaps the condem-
nation of the people in general upon
them. The county court is nearer
and dearer to the people now than
ever and every one knows it is not
afraid to carry out the will of the
majority of the people-the great
fundamental principle of free gov
ernment.

scoundrels, all the Telegram need to
say is had the comfy court refused
to ratify the action OF the people of
Salem and its city council that pa
per would now he extolling the

made the attack and had they their
just deserts they would have been
driven from the county long ago.
There is story Of their lives these
assailants of the county court do not
like to have alluded to. They are
hypocrites of the first water and

Their dastardly reflections on the
