Strengthened in their pitching de-

tendency of the Norfolk bail Founders,
Spencer swept the Norfolk ball team
off the field in the second game Of the
Thursday and Friday series. regaining
the laurels lost the afternoon previous

home plate four scores to the good

shut-out. one thing by the way with
which the north state team Is not on
particularly intimate terms.
A critical examination of the game
shows that each nine scored eight
hits. Ten Spencerites were struck
out by Norfolk pitchers, eight Norfolk
batters were sacrificed to Spencer
curves. But however the statistics of
the game figure out, Spencer won by
an easy margin
Norfolk errors were damaging and
Norfolk was on the whole weak

pitchers box. Three men were sent

makes no pitching pretensions, hand

Norfolk played off. Spencer played
the game which has won victory in
the north state country and which has
made opposing teams anxious to call
attention to the fact that Spencer has
an all-professional team. Fourteen
Spencer players assisted in put-outs
seven Norfolk players.
Bunnell, the Spencer pitcher
was a great twirler and most of the
Spencer men were heavy hitters
Walling made the first hit of the
game, bringing in two scores in the

The gentleman stated that the union
is just as strong as ever and that it
will "stand pat" in it's fight for prin-

men who have returned to work for
the Bell company. "The Others" he
said, "remain firm in their contention
for what the union considers to be
right"
1t is needless to say that the daily
press, when we desire to give any in
formation to the public concerning the
true state of affairs, did not copy the
statement by Local No. 3l6. Being
very friendly inclined towards the Bell
Telephone company however, the ar
ticle of January 7th, which emenated

give the names of these individuals,
as believe they have taken a larger
load on their shoulders than they will
be able to carry through life, simply
of Wyoming two Of Salt Lake, one of
Helena, and the two whom the article

see no matter what the officers Of the

of our men who will decide the ques.
tion by referendum vote.

Dear Sir:-I am writing you this
Letter to show from the methods which
the Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone
company are pursuing, the desperate
straits which they are reduced to.
From the inception of the present
difficulty, they have had the assist
ance of the daily press in their en-
deavors to mislead the public at large,
and uion men in particular, in matters
pertaining to this strike; by having
articles paid for, as have been in.
formed, at the rate Of thirty cents a
line.
win try to illustrate their plan Of
campaign since the 21st of May, when
this trouble began, by relating a cir.
cumstanee which has come to our no
tice in the last few days.
On January 7th an article appeared
in the Inter Mountain Republican OF
Salt Lake, which would lead any one
who was not familiar with the methods
of the Bell company to believe tha,
the Local Union of our brotherhoo ]
in Ogden, namely Local Union No. 316
had become desperate to such an ex
tent that they had gone back in a
body. This article was answered in
the Inter Mountain Republican of the
sth, by Local Union No. 316, as fol
