Game
at Moscow fOddV

One of the most important football
games of the season, in the northwest
is the one being played this afternoon
between the universities Of Idaho and
Oregon at Moscow. Both teams are
considered strong factors in the race
for the championship and one the elm
ination of one of them will be watched
with interest
The dope has it that Idaho should
win; but the rain and a heavy field
may block her fast work. In that case
Oregon would be more likely picked
as a winner. foJ she is heavier and in
mass playing would have all the better
of it. Oregon has nearly all a new team
with only Moullen and Clarke. last
years stars, retained. There are
others of the team playing, but they
have never played SO brilliantly, as to
attract attendance. Idaho has nearly
her whole team returned. Small, Saw
idge, in fact nearly all the fast bunch
are back.
So if the weather is good, Idano is
dopei to win. If not, the chances are
more equal, with the leaning toward
the webfooters who are more used to
the mud. Against this, and theil
weight, is the fact that the game is al
Moscow, which favors the Idaho boys
The chances are that the game will
be close in any case.

mile What the cost of laying would
be has not been estimated, but the
laying and the equipment of rolling
stock are said to have been provided
for in the plan to bond for construc-
ton money. Blue prints of the entire
project are being shown farmers.
Last year, and even a year previous,
corporations were organized here to
construct an electric line along the
route to connect the inland country
with the river. 1t was then planned
to erect a power plant on the Tukan-
non river, above Dayton. The electric
part Of the scheme has been dropped
and steam will be used at first.
Capitalists in New York have prom
ised to take bonds of the concern for
sufficient money to place the linein op-
Grafton when the farmers have shown
their interest and good faith. The
movement to construct a railway as a
feeder for boats on the river was
brought about largely by the effort to
combine all the corporations attempt
ing to open water traffic to the sea in
one concern, several meetings with
this object having been held A general
plan of consolidation has been reached
but details will be worked out after an
effort is made to interest farmers in
doing a large part of the work.

Farmers Educational and Co-opera-

has been detailed to solicit stock and
right way subscriptions for the
proposed railroad from Wallula to
Dayton, a distance of 20 miles, reports
that the scheme is meeting with the
hearty endorsement of farmers living
along the proposed line. and that the
prospects of reduced freight rates will
materially assist in securing the right

between the two cities.
Farmers are urged to give land to
the corporation for right way, wf1er-

are urged to take stock in a large
corporation, they to pay for the stock
in labor. In this way the entire line of
70 miles can be made ready for the
