WENTWORTH WINS AGAIN
upsets Dope and Passes the Presby-
terians a Cold One-lO to S.

"Now who'd a thunk it?n mused
Capt. Thompkins, OF the Westminster
Wonders, as the Wentworth Cohorts
continued to apply their big sticks
with telling effect for nine innings,
and after he had realized that all the
Preachers attempts to stop their
march to victory, were in vain. AID
to think that Westminster blew into
this burg with the Repatriation of
never having been defeated up-to-
date. Although this statement
caused the base ball enthusiasts to
quake in their boots, the cadets put
up a dandy article of ball and showed
the would-be champs under by a
score of 10 to 5 Thursday afternoon.
The cadets went into the game
with apprehension, but never for an
instant did they show the slightest
trace Of a yellow streak. Extremely
bum fielding gave them a good
lead at the start, which the preach
ers we're unable to overcome. The
soldiers smote the ball at a fearful
click all the way, and three-baggers
and home-runs were common
things for a time. Upton was the
candy kid whenit came to dishing out
teasers and he was a puzzle to the
Fulton boys at all times. Kelley put
up a frst-class game at short and al.
so did some smashing with the will
low. HilHx rudely tore several beau
ties from the clouds at various times
and he also tickled several twisters
with his two-by-four, scoring a home
run and two singles. In fact, all
the members of the team we're in
fused with a desire to put up a classy
article of ball and every one of them
did. Westminster's first pitcher was
entirely too generous and so he was
superseded by a more stingy one.
In the first inning, one of the Full
ton players was hit on the head by
Upton and severely injured. A fairly
good crowd was present.
The score by innings.

BULL CAMPAIGN Is
TEMPORARILY SHELNED
Bear Element Takes Inning In the
Game-Turmoil in Railroad Sir-
Giles Plays Disturbing Part.

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-There was
"a heavy break in prices of stocks To-
wand the volume of the market at
the same time expanded materially.
Misgivings which have been gath
ering force for several days over the
evidence of excess in the movement
for the advance, undermined specn-
latiye confidence. and il made II
easier for the bears TO topple over
prices.
The bear element was active and
aggressive and was credited with IN
fiuential leadership of kind which
has been enlisted exclusively on the
long side of the market up TO very
recently. There was no positive news
development to account for the re-
action, but there were some disquiet-
ing rumors regarding the finances OF
constituent members of the Rock ISL
and system. Yesterdays violent
break in the Rock Island collateral
secured by St Louis & San Francisco
common stock, was followed today
by slump in the st. Louis & San
Francisco refunding fours and by
wholesale unloading of Rock Island
common stock.
The collapse of Boston spectators
program was an unsettling influence
on the whole list. Stock which had
been most widely hetalded for an adj
vance in the advertising aempaign
was unloaded with unconcealed pre-
cipitation II became evident that
the growing distrust of the market
had led to homecoming IL with stop
loss orders, and this had the effect
of increasing the rapidity OF the fan
when it had once set in decisively.
Imperative orders to sell very large
amounts of stock when the price
should reach a certain point on the
decline made a position very vulner-
able for bear attacks. the buying or
ders being grossly deficient to meet
selling orders uncovered in this man
ner Supporting orders which have
been determinedly followed up for
some time past as a part of the pro-
gram of protecting the market We're

majority and a margin of from 600,-

Mr.. Taft has had long experience
in high judicial positions; as cab
met officer, governor in the Philip
pines. pacifcator in Cuba and or
panizer in the great work at Panama.
Mr.. Bryan has no such credit mark.
For the last II years his business
has been that of presidential eandi-
date and anti-administration politi-
clan. While Taft has been busy in
craftsmanship Bryan has
been a radical agitator, seeking to
pull down what has been done so
that he can shape national affairs
after his own rashly experimental
fashion. Taft points to his record in

If BRYAN were elected he could not .

political harmony with himself, and
legislation would accordingly be tied
up for the next four years, period
that would be wasted in a discordant
deadlock when the need of the coun-
try is unquestionably an administra-
ton with power to act. The election
pf a president implies the exercise of
a sober judgment based on definite
and accomplished facts.

plainly adverse to him. The election

UNwARRANTED ECONOMY.

In some counties of the state, the
primaries are being called for the
purpose of electing delegates to the
county convention at which delegates
will be selected to two state conven-
lions. One set to go to Lewiston to
elect delegates to the national con-
vention at Chicago to nominate the
president, and another set to be Sc
lected in the same county convention
to meet at Boise September 1st to
nominate the state officers.
We do not see the necessity for
electing delegates SO far ahead, and
especially to perform a duty con-
corning which public opinion may
change somewhat after the Chicago
convention. 1t might make a great
deal of difference in the choice Of
delegates to be made in Idaho for
the state convention, when we see
whether Taft or cannon Is nomi-
mated for the presidency. If the two
conventions came very close together
in point of time, economic reasons
might overcome others, but when
there is period of four months be-
tween them, we think that period
should be given to enable people of
the state to study conditions and
candidates.

Twin Falls Men to Raise Fruit on
Immense Tract.
A great deal of interest is being
taken among the ranchers on the
tract in a proposed company to put
two thousand acres of Ferguson Flat
into big fruit orchard. The land
in question is owned by Mr.. D. G..
Ferguson and he will take promi-
nent part in the organization of the
company which will be incorporated
under the state laws. The land is
considered to be very valuable for
such purposes and the members of
the stock company are for the most
part residents of this tract who know
good land when they see it.
While there are no definite plans
as to care of such an immense crop
as will be raised, it is thought that
a portable canning factory could be
placed on the tract to care for it
speedily.-Twin Falls Times.

BY copying articles from other
papers, whose main features were
ridicule of our course in the recent
discussion of Mr.. Brady's candidacy,
you signify your approval Of that
plan of conducting campaign work
rather than following case on its
merits. We, of course, understand
why you reprint only such articles
as laud Mr.. Brady or ridicule those
who discuss his case pro and con, but
we take it that the people will want
something more tangible than that,
and we suggest that you answer
questions put to you by other papers
of the state having direct bearing
upon your favorite subject. We sug
gest that for one edition you take up
the matter addressed to you by The
Weekly News of Troy, Idaho, in
which they ask The Pocatello Tri-
bune for information as to where Mr..
Brady stands on the subject of rail-
road commission, the anti-pass bill,
the assessment of the Oregon Short
Line bonded at $4,000 per mile but
assessed at $13,500 per mile. The
News touches upon number of other
things which you might in your dis
erection reply to, but which we do not
voice because we are not convinced.
We think there are many things
which the people would like to hear
about through your estimable paper,
and which we should be glad to pass
on to the voters in our locality. 1t
may be too early to take up these de-
tails, but these things are as timely
as ridicule and we commend them TO
your consideration.

An AllegOry.

When Eve had led her lord astray,
And Cain had killed his brother,
The stars and flowers, the poets say,
Agreed with one another
To heat the cunning tempter's art,
And teach the world its duty,
BY keeping on it's wicked heart
Their eyes of light and beauty.
"a million sleepless lids" said they,
Twill be at least warning
The flowers can keep watch by day
The stars from eve till morning."
Ger hill and prairie, field and lawn
Their dewy eyes upturning.
The flowers keep watch from redd'-
ming dawn
Till western skies are burning.
Alas! each hour of daylight tells
A tale of shame so crushing,
Some turn as white as sea-bleached
shells,
And some are always blushing.
And when the patient stars look
down,
Their light on all discovers:
The traitors smile, the murderer's
frown,
And lips Of lying lovers.
They try to shut their saddening
eyes,
And in the vain endeavor
We see them twinkling in the skies,
And so they wink forever.
