Sunday Ball Game.

Mo. Valley defeated the fast
est amateur team from Omaha
yesterday. The Signal Corps
ball team from Fort Omaha
brought Cass of the "a inning
game at McClelland with them
to show us how to play ball but
Bert was there with his happy
smile and gave Cass no chance
to get anything on him.
In the first inning the first
three men up for both teams
went down with out getting to
first, in the second Rowes in
jured knee caused him to error
allowing one Of their men to
reach first after two were out
but the next man popped out
to Pipher so the error cost us
nothing. In our half of the
round Rice led off with a hit
and stole second and went to.
third on Millimans sacrifice aft
er Reed had struck out, then
Allstrand hit a Inner past the
pitcher but Sincox smothered
it and retired the side.
In the third things looked
bad for the Valley the first two
men batted groanders to Nice
ly and were thrown out at first
the third man went to first on
an infie'd hit was sent to sec
ond when Nicely hit Nipper-
the next man up poled a hit to
left center Milliman taking it
on the bounce threw the ball to
Plpher who in turn threw to
the plate catching Stokes with
about four feet to spare. From
this time on neiter team got a
man to third and only three
reached second until The eight,
Rowe started the round but
was struck out, Cook followed
with a hit and stole second,
Pipher sacrificed him to third,
Rice was the next man up and
Cass would have had him on
his list but the catcher dropped
the ball and made a poor throw
to first. Cook scored and Rice
was safe, Reed flied out.
Nicely took no chances in
the ninth and after throwing
the first man out at first he
famed the next two.
Reeds catch of the long foul
back of third and a double play
In the sixth -Pipher to Rowe
were the features.

gave him a wink. He did not
stop to consider that there are
more appearing at the soup
houses in the cities during
these days for free soup than
there were during Cleveland's
administration. Nor did he
tell the folks that the govern
ment indebtedness was four or
five times greater now than
then. The republican party
has demonstrated that they can
get up a panic that will defy
the Democrats to try to COM
pete for honor.s. No it will not
be advisable for republican
campaign speakers TO talk soup
house too much this fall and
just a few words on democratic
panics will cause some thinking
that will result in no good for
the old standpat kind of repub-
licanism.- Audubon Advocate.

Certainly They Will.

Certainly They Will.
Hon. .Lafe Young, in his Des
Moiues Capital, says: "Ofcourse
many men in Iowa have been
voting the republican ticketwho
are not republicans. In most
cases they have been voting for
republicans on personal or indi-
vidual grounds, these men will
return to the democratic party.
THE republican majority in this
State will be reduced to its nor
NAL number. The republicans
will have between. forty and
sixty thousand majority in the
State at the polls in November"
Thanks, Brother Young, but
couldn't you cut down the ma
Jority another twenty thousand
votes? "Many men will now
return to the democratic party"
and when the return movement
sets in, who can tell the number
of that mighty army of demo-
Gratis, who will return to their
proper place under the olddem-
ocratic banner of their fathers.
Is there anything to prevent
their coming back?
There is nothing in either the
candidate or platform of the
republican party to cause any
democrat to ''hanker" after a
membership in a party that is
only held together "by the CO.
hesive power Of plunder."
The democratic party have
presented a ticket and platform
of which every American citizen
may we'll feel proud, and we
will hail with delight the return
of those erring brethren, "who
never were republican," return
to their proper place. We adj
NIT that there has not been in
Iowa, for many years, a very
f1attering chance for a demo-
crat to reach an official position,
but if any democrat has been
tempted to leave his party to
find recognition in the republi-
can party, such men made "a
great mistake; true, they may
have succeeded to some petty
county or township office, but
all the main positions are farm
ed out to republicans years in
advance, and although Boies,
at one time, smashed the ring,
and Gov. Cummings broke the
combine and defeated the heir
apparent, for which he is most
supremely hated by his party,
but it is notorious that all Off
ces in Iowa, is in the keeping of
the few, and to secure one the
seeker must have the party
stamp of the charmed circle,
who have the candidates mark
ed years in advance, and leaves
no hope for any man who lacks
the party stamp of the boss. In
such a party no democrat can
remain. Let every voter in the
Union examine the candidates,
and the platforms of the differ
ent parties, and then so vote as
their judgment may dictate and
all will be we'll, bow the knee
to none but God in praise, own
no boss return to your party,
and thereby reduce the repub-
lican majority "to its normal
number, and thus swell the vote
of the democratic party. It is
bearly possible that the number
who may return to the demo-
cratic party in Iowa, may be in
larger numbers than is expec-
ted, yet we all will be glad to
have them come, and to share
with other democrats the honor
of electing William Jennings
Bryan President of the United
States in November next.

CHILDREN EMPLOYED In
IOWA
Sixty=five Violations Of the
Law Reported During
Year
Des Moines, July 12.-The
statistics of the state labor.
bureau for the last year will
show that there were sixty-ive
youngsters who were unlawful
ly employed by the manufact-
uring plants of the state.
These sixty-fve were forced
into other lines of employment
or back into school. The en-
forcement was secured with
but little friction.
"The employers of the state
after they learned the workings
of the child labor law" said
Labor Commissioner Brigham,
"were willing to cooperate
with us. The result is that the
inspectors throughout the state
merely visit factories from
time to time and have for the
last year found conditions al
most ideal in comparison with
previous years"
The annual report of the la
Dor commissioner will be issued
in few months. showing the
enforcement of the new laws
which have been given a trial
for the last two years.
Weather Crop Bulletin.
For the week ending July 1S,
1908.
The past week was very fav-
orable for farming operations
and the growth of crops. The
first two days were moderately
cool, with unreasonable cool
nights, but the remainder of
the week was excessively warm
making the average tempera-
ture for the week about normal
The rainfall was deficient in all
parts of the state, and most of
the counties have had no rain
since last Monday. The warm
dry weather and the excessive
sunshine were very beneficial
for haying and harvesting.
Clover hay making is about
finished in southern and we'll
advanced in northern districts
and considerable timothy has
been secured in the best of con-
dition. The quality and yield
of hay is exceptionally good.
Most of the winter wheat and
rye is shock, and the harvest of
barley and early oats is in pro-
gress in nsouthern and south CEN
tral districts and will become
general during the coming week
if favorable weather conditions
continue. Considerable red
rust is reported in small grain,
especially oats, but very few
reports indicate any damage
done as yet. Corn has made
an abnormally rapid growth,
many of the early planted
fields are in the tasseling stage.
and the late planted fields have
been thoroughly cultivated,
and the plants, tho small, show
good color and condition.

100 Pounds of Hog, S7.O5.
Chicago, ILL.,, July l3. Hogs
climbed to the top rung of the
quotation ladder today, regist-
ering at the $7.05 mark, the
highest price of the year.
Hogs have been on the ram
page ever since March, when
scarcity of corn also sent the
price of beef up sharply.
Gradually they advanced in
price from a cents a pound live
weight until the top notch was
reached, when 100 pounds of
hog brought S7.O5.
Stock yards packers who put
in million dollafs out of the
present market, experts say.
Scarcity of corn has resulted
in a scarcity of hogs. The
market receipts are falling far
behind those of a year ago.
The hogs, two, are rot SO heavy
The average hog that came to
Chicago from western farmers
last year at this time weighed
2C9 pounds. This year the
average is 222 pounds, showing
the unwillingness of raisers to
feed high priced corn.
The market ran up to 81 last
year, but that was an artificial
figure, brought about by "nurs-
ing" and there was an almost
immediate break to Sc. This
year, however, experts declare
the figure will stay high and
hogs will be few and high
priced for six months more.
