the Spokane Indians, he predicts
that the fans of Spokane will be
treated to the real article Of base
ball this season. He has quietly
been gatherink Klinkhammer, Jen-

team now has a quartette Of pitch

The fans will miss Harry Rush,
who goes to strengthen the Van

Carney says the Spokane ozone re-

Captain Swindells will do the re-

Quinn has his team complete and
all are here except Erickson and
Klinkhammer. 1t looks like team

ONE GENT POSTAGE

WASHINGTON, D. c., April q
One"cent postage, money in the
treasury, or an Improvement in the
postal service-these are what
should be accomplished with the
improvements planned in the post
office department.
A commission was appointed at
the session of congress just ended,
for the purpose of overhauling the
business methods of the depart
ment, and this commission is just
preparing to go to work.
The United States is the only
government in the world that runs
its postal business at loss.
Where the money expended goes
is the question for the commission.
The government spends $46,000.0 900
year just for railway mail car
service, but SO inadequate is the
bookkeeping system that it Is not
possible to say what part of this
huge sum goes for one thing or an
other in the great bulk of mail.
The rural free delivery service is
practically self supporting now.
This is due to the huge increase in
farmers mail, resulting from the
greater ease with which farmers
now send or receive mail.

MEETING
HERE TO FIX
FRANCHISE

AS stated in The Press, the Ia
coma team is not definitely located
in Bellingham yet. A meeting of
the directors of the Northwest
league will be held here Wednes-
day and the fate of the disputed
franchise finally decided. Mike
Lynch and his bunch of Tigers will
probably remain in Tacoma. Bell
ingham is admitted to be 1 of the
worst ball towns on the coast, and
with good grounds in Tacoma and
a willingness on the part of the
people of that city to sustain the
team, it is unlikely that the fran
chise will be transferred.
President Lucas is reported as
not being certain that his giving
the Tacoma franchise to Belling-
ham will stand, and there are many
local fans who never took his ac-
ton seriously, after it was an
nounced that Tacoma had been
successful in securing new grou-- DIS.
