COLLEGE BOYS
up IN THE AIR"
AS USUAL IN FIRST GAME or
SEASON THEY DID NOT
PLAY WELL.
BUT THE PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT
For Splendid Team Work And q
Fast Aggregation Is
Promised.
10y HoNUs cRAIe.)

NASHVILLE, Tenn, March 27y-s
With the opening of the base ban
season between Vanderbilt University
and the Nashville professionals as rs
ual in these first game with men Of
experience, the collegians went up in
the air to a certain extent. The out
field was composed OF new players
with a couple Of new ones on the in
field. Capt Coston played second
base, and with position practically
new to him it was a matter Of inn
possibility for the work to be on with
the usual clock work regularity, as
the coaches hope to perfect after more
thorough maturity. Those Witnessing
the work of the college squad predics
that the team will round into an un-
usually fast team by the middle OF the
season.
Arnold pitched the first five innings
for the Commodores, during which
time seven men were given walks, and
two were hit. This wildness, how
ever, may be attributed to the fact that
the pitchers box from which he had
been practicing on Dudley Field was
lower than the surrounding held.
while that of the Athletic park ig
raised considerably higher than the
diamond Arnold is a good pitcher
and when the stage fright wears away
he will be wonder in Dixie college
athletics. Barran pitched the remain
ing four innings resulting In only two
hits for the Volunteers. Barran Is
another wonder come in to fill the
the place of the great southpaw Love,
who has successfully graced the boz
on Dudley Field for the past few
years. Those who saw the work on
Barran were delighted, and claim that
his work places him IN a "class eX-
elusive in the college world. David
son and Williams did the catching for
the Collegians. Both showed up wells
although it is thought by those inter-
ested that Williams would make a
brighter star as first baseman. He Is
to be tried out for that position next
Saturday in the second game with the
Volunteers.
Bond and Pipkin did few swatting
stunts, getting two hits each off the
professions Several changes will be
made in the outfield before a definite
lineup will be given out, as there are
several other good prospects to have
trial next Saturday. Young Alden,
the former Captain of the Memphis
High School, will be played In the out
field. Alden has been showing up in
true big League" style in any old
position in which the coach has chose
to place him. He is little low for
either second or short, but will in all
probability hold a birth in the out
field, where he is as fast as lightning,
a good hitter, and knows the game to
a nicely. Ed Inglis will be tried in an
outfield position in that game. Sew
evarl new pitchers will be tried In the
games with the professionals next
Monday and Tuesday, but for the Sat
urday's game Morrison and Coleman
will grace the box.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, March 2S.-Be-
fore a fair-sized and enthusiastic
crowd on the Public Square Friday
night. Sheriff G. d. Johns opened his
campaign for reelection. AS the
speaking was held in the open air, the
crowd was a bit difficult to estimate,
and estimates differed widely. DR.. d.

sheriff. It had been intended to open
the campaign in the County Court
room, but the room was crowded and
adjournment was taken TO the open

The many friends Of D. W. Shea han
all over the county will be glad to
know he has consented to stand for
the circuit judgs hip.
C.. j. Yager Of Lost Prairie taught q
private school in Chester, Ill.,, some
40 years ago, and among his pupils was
bright, black-eyed boy of 8 years
named William Jennings Bryan.
The report that L. Knapper of Lost
Prairie would be candidate for COM
missioner was denied by q. r. Eber-
hard of Joseph at Enterprise, Thurs
day.
Up to Thursday morning 81 candi-
dates for county Offices had their
petitions out or ordered, 8 Democrats,
IL Republicans and Independent, as
follows: County judge, Dem. clerk,
! Dem.; sheriff, 2 DEM, 4 Rep; asses
sor, 2 Dem., 4 Rep; surveyor, Rep,

urer, 2 Dem. For some reason or
other the candidates are shying ut the

Wonder why?

DEMOCRATS HOLD
BUSINESS SESSION
Four Delegates to State Conveution
June n, Will Be Chosen By New
Committee.

Who Is the man that all Wallowa
county Democrats favor for president
The question was unanswered at the
gathering of the faithful held in the
court room Saturday. It was decided
to leave the selection of Wallowa's fou,
delegates to the state convention to the
new central committee that will be
elected on April II. The state conven.
ton to be held June l6, will elect del
egates to the national convention and
tie question up was instructions for the
Wallowa delegates. Judge Corkins
thought it would be good idea to le,
the state know how Wallowa stood.
Chairman s. F. Pace invited someone,
anyone to sound the keynote, but 10
one felt tuneful. All laughed. Every.
body understood verybody else without
words. As Judge Corkins said, it would
be impossible to find four Democrats in
the county who we're for anybody but
the peoples choice. The Democrats
and Republicans have swapped places.
In 1904 the Republicans had but one
candidate; the Democrats many. Now
the latter know no name but Bryan,
while the Republicans are flirting with
q dozen,
There was goodly representation
present from all parts of the county,
and candidates not few. All we're in
a good humor and more than one old
wheelhorse said it looked like a DEM
ocratic year from president to coroner.
Chairman s. F. Pace filed vacancies
on the committee for this meeting from
those in attendance, and later an
nounc I'd the complete committee to
serve until April II as follows: Los.
