First Bail Game OF Season

A rather interesting game OF base
ball took place on the local diamond
last Friday afternoon betweenthe High
School team, under the captaincy Of
Frank Hays, and the Town Team: only
small crowd Witnessing the exhibi-
ton. The High School boys tried
three pitchers and each did fairly good
work and by the end OF the season un-
doubleday each will be more steady
and effective. The Town Team put In
for their pitcher Mr.. Carlton who had
few puzzlers for the school boys; but
since that was his first throwing for
the year he did not exert himself. Don
Preston also twirled several innings.
The high wind made ii almost impos-
sible to play at times. The High School
boys in their new grey uniforms pre-
sented very pleasing appearance.
Next Saturday afternoon the school
boys play the school team from Car.
roll. Since the Carroll team Is good
one large number should ate nd and
cheer our boys to victory. Line up:

executed In 1897 wherein Disnowity was
TO furnish Franklin oil the necessary
moneys and did SO furnish. to secure

was TO give Dignowity One-half of what

lican party, nor destructive, like the DEM
ocratic party.
The Republican platform says nothing
and means nothing. 1t is a platform of
statistical invention and political eva
sions. II is obviously the product of a
party whose sole purpose is to stand pat
and whose sole desire is to stay pat. The
Democratic platform contains some good
and original things, but, as has been said.
the original things not good and the
good things are not original.
1T was built by political jackdaws
who feathered their nests with the plumes
of others without understanding of their
significance or intention to their per-
formance~
1T is the habitation of hermit crab
which has no shell of it's own and in
vades the first convenient one without
regard to property or proprety.
1T Is a platform, too, of reconciliation
and retraction, of atonement and apology,
of harmony and hypocrisy. for, in COM
pliance with a former compact, Parker
has pronounced peace, Bill Bailey has
poured Standard oil upon the troubled
waters. and Bryan has killed not only
the fatted calf, but the goose that laid the
golden egg.
NO man can serve two masters. and
no man can conciliate the conflicting eie-
ments of the Democratic party. He who
tries must serve one and deceive the 9TH
pie and private compact with the trusts.
Only Pure Party.
"Our party is not party of faction or
cliques classes. We have no warning
wings to pacify, no contradictory declara-
tons TO modify, no corrupt bosses to sat
isfy.
Let us act boldly and speak plainly.
Let us make a platform so clear and so
sincere that every citizen will understand
our position and have confidence in our
intention Let us nominate candidates

Mr.. Hearst delivered his address with
intense earnestness, driving home his
points in an effective manner that car
ried the convention with him from the
start to the close of his address. His
description of Mr.. Bryan as the knight

ter and applause and his illusions to
other Democratic leaders also excited
the cheers of his hearers. At the con-
clusion of his address he was given an
ovation that continued for several
minutes.
