CONGRESSIONAL RACE Is ON.

The congress onal race in the seo-
ond oregon district is now on. The
announcement OF the candidacy of
T. t. Geer of this city opens wide the
gates. Portland will now groom her
strongest man in the hope Of winning
with a divided eastern Oregon field.
It looks as though Mr.. Geer is
playing into the hands Of Portland
against the interests of his home" :"
eastern oregon, for with two candi-
dates in the field from this section
OF the state Portland will have the
advantage and unless some strenuous
work is done, the entire congression-
al and senatorial delegation from Or,
egon will come from Portland and
that immediate vicinity.
Congressman Ellis has the decided
advantage over any other candidate
so far, but a divided field in eastern
Oregon will give Portland the under
hold"
Ellis is now in the harness.
He is a bona fide and pioneer res
ident of this district.
He has the prestige of having serv-
ed before in congress.
He can accomplish more than any
new man and is therefore the logi-
cal candidate.

Farmers Find Advertising Profitable.

The Keokuk Gate City says that
almost anything can be sold by adver-
tising. Down in Florida a man is
getting rich by advertising live alli-
gators. He sells them to merchants
who put them in show windows to
attract attention. The time will come
when farmers will advertise special
products of Their farms. One Wis
consin farmer. named Jones, has be-
come famous in spite of his name by
advertising Jones' Farm Sausages.
They were good sausages, but 1t was
only when he let their goodness be
known through spending money in
advertising to send four pounds by
prepaid express for 81 that he built
up big business. There is no rea-
son why farmers should be idle in
winter; advertising may bring profit
able business right to the farm.

Rue stole second. After Anderson
had been retired on grounder, Burl1
slammed one along the left line and
both Wilson and LaRue crossed the
rubber. That was ali OF the Digger
scoring, but 1t was an ample suf-
ficiency.
To open the fourth Nagel drew a
pass and Spencer beat out his bunt
The bricks were full when Burk hit
Moeller. Doom nled to Crockett
and Rub drove long one to Wilson.
The fielder relayed the ball to Crock
ett and the latter's throw to Ander-
son was in time to catch Nagel, but
Anderson dropped the ball Connel-
lY who replaced zimpfer, singled and
Spencer score. The count was tied
but in the last half the Diggers made
II safe.
Dooin's three baser and Ruh's

their third and last in the ninth.

.DICCERS COP
2 MORE GAMES
Hard Hitting Features Both
Contests.
SECOND IS EXCITING
Portsmouth Ties up in Ninth
but Diggers Win Out.
Craig Shakes off Hoodoo- Pitched
Good Ball as did Burk Some
Pretty Plays Made.

A little habit of coping both
games OF a doubleneader, developed
on Wednesday, grew to somewhat
larger proportions yesterday two
more contests were safely wrapped
up in the Digger win column. 1t was
no cinch to take that last game from
the tailenders though more ana more
than one chill went through the fans
before Frank Wolfe slashed a crack
ing single to center field and scored
Red Craig from the second in the
ninth.
All that the first game lacked was
contained in the second. In tie
opener of the double bill, the Dig
gers did some swatting that was good
to look upon and it was easy. In
the closing game the hits did not
come a. often as might have been
desired and runs were very hard to
get. But at the close 1t looked as
though Marion with the score OF
four to one had It all sewed up.
Then something happened The
Portsmouth crew commenced to hit
and when three men had been retired
the score was four all
San Burk did the Digger throw
ing in the opening game. II seemed
that Burk had all of his old time
cunning, with lots OF smoke and a
curve ball that occasionally stood the
opposing swatters on their heads.
Six safaties were secured by Ports
mouth but three OF these were infield
hits OF the scratchiest kind. Bdrk
whiFed six and walked two.
On the other hand Doyle, the scrap
py lad with whom the bleacherites
had 50 much fun on the first day, was
the power house for the Night Rid
ers. His support was miserable and
added to this in thu early rounds the
Diggers developed a propensity for
clouting the ball whenever II was
necessary Crichton relieved Doyle
in the fifth and was hit harder.
Tate's single and Ketter's sacrifice,
passed ball and Iimpfer's error let
the big left fielder complete the cir
cult in the second Tate started in
from third having given Wilson the
squeeze signal but was crossed and
had Zimpfer thrown true TO third
Tate would have been caught. Tie
former Digger heayed the ball to left
field and Tate came in. After VIII
son flied to Rub, L5Rue was hit and
swiped second, advancing to third
when Zimpfer again threw the ball
away. Burke heaved the ball to
third TO get LaRue and the pill went
wild, letting the runner score. An
derson got an infsld hit, but Burk
forced him 9t second.
With one down Ketter singled in
the fourth. He stole second and when
Wilson doubled TO right Ketter
scored LaRue's long fly to right
center let Wilson advance to third
and when Rub threw away Ander-
sons grounder Wilson scored and
BObs went TO second.
During the first inning that Chrich-
ton faced the Diggers there was not
much doing. In the sixth, however.
he realized that he was up against
Ketter opened up by
slamming another one over the right
field fence. Wilson followed with
single and LaRue beat his bunt, Will

TWO GAMES SATURDAY

Tomorrow afternoon at Webb park
there will be double header be-
tween Newark and Marion and there
should be great crowd on hand to
witness the bargain day attraction
Newark and Marion have already
fought some great battles this year
and those of the present series should
'be even better as the race is drawing
to close and much depends upon
the outcome of the games during this
month. Wilmot and Lucas will work
for the Dlggers and as both are go,
ing fine, Newark will have something
TO beat. For the down state aggrega-
ton Bushelman anG Quailley will be
the points.

SECOND GAME.

With Red Craig ON the Digger
hin and Conover on the Portsmouth
lab the second game was started
and as inning after inning went oy
without any scoring and with prac-
tIcally no hitting at all the rams
we're treated to rare battle OF the
pit,hers. A number OF phenomena
plays were pulled off on both sides
of the fence.
All the way Craig pitched good
lall. but so did Conover. 1t seemed
rs though CraIg's hard luck was to
continue. His first wobble occurred
in the third when with one down
he PASSED Conover. The pitcher
went to second on Burke's out and
ccred on Totman's single to CEN
ter. 1t rccked little roster when
Marion tied the count in the fifth.
In this tying of the score too much
credit cannot be given to Davy
Crockett through whose admirable
work en- the bases IL was possible.
With one down Crockett got
transportation and swiped second.
Conover did not make the throw
as he dropped the ball and then
becoming angry he merely rolled the
pill to the pitcher. Crockett, at the
time had good lead off second and
made dash fer third, getting there
n plenty OF time. When Ketter
wallopped one TO left that Moeller
cached but could not hold Crock
ct came in.
The Diggers did some pounding
in the seventh. Wilson beat out a
sl-w one to NaIyel and L.aRue sent
Wilson to third when he laid down
2 pretty bunt and beat It out TO
ilrYt With Eaftue scampering toward
"ccond Anderson smashed one into
left fo,d for two bases and Wilson
and IaRue crossed the rubber. Burk
fawihced Anderson TO third hut the
catcher could not complete the cir
c,nt
With the game apparently sewed
mp Moeller opened up the ninth
with single when Doom rapped a
long single to center that bounced
over Ketters head and went for a
three baser Moeller counted and the
c9llers looked very dangerous. Ruh
drew pass. Wolfe's good stop Of
r1nnelly's difficult grounder held
10th runners stationary after Ruth
had pilfered second. Pitcher Conover
tied the score with his single to
center field Craig then settled down
md stopped the rally.
With one down in the Digger half
Craig opened I'D things and started
n rally by drivirg a safe one TO
'eft. o'Day smashed timely one

dHfeat Of his former teammates

the hoodoo off. Who knows?
Pitcher Conover called Umps Hart
a fat head, for which he will have
to pay IS in the Golfers OF the league
before he plays again.
Bob Doom played great game at
third for the visitors His batting
was a feature of the visitors play

Windy Iotshaw was loaned to
Portsmouth last night by Manager
O'Day. 1t Is probable that he will
play first base for the down staters.
There was some talk of making
a deal with Portsmouth for Pitcher
Mercer who would doubtless be a
winner with this club but neither
Ransick nor ODay could agree and
the deal fell through.
Newark will present different
lineup from the last time It appear
ed at Webb park. Wratten is back at
third again and McClintock, who
played with Youngstown and Newark
last year.. Is at short. Smith, who
has been on third this year is playing
in the outheld in pace of Lefty"
Snyder who is out OF the game on
account of injuries.
Jimmy Burk in center field played
a phenomenal game. He gathered in
numerous drives that were tagged for
extra bases.
Ruh at short Is shining light
He fields his position in great style.
Now only four games behind the
Lanks who were unable to play at
Mansfield yesterday on account of
rain.

Keter has now made seven home

ODay has been hitting In the hard
est kind of luck. He has been driv-
Ing them to the fence ana hitting
them on the nose but always right at
some one. He broke away from the
hoodoo and singled at the right time
in the ninth inning rally.
Ketter and Tate elch stole two
bases.
Wilson and Crockett have pulled
off some daring stunts on the base
paths during the four games played
with Portsmouth.
Burk pitched a great game.
Craig has got rio of that hoodoo
and 1t Is a safe bet that he will have
his share OF good luck from this
time forth.

The Diggers are fighting hard and
there will be some class to these

MARKET LETTER
From Our Regular Kansas City
Stock Yards Correspondent

<
Kansas City Stock yards, Oct. 10
The market last week was very
uneven, opening with a good
gain first of the week, but clos
ing with all of the advance lost,
and in the case of Stockers and
feeders, a little more. The run
today is $4,000 head, slightly
less than a week ago, but still
indicating that it will be a few
weeks yet before the range cat
tie receipts cease to form the
bulk of the total supply. The
market today is weak on steers,
and ) to 10 lower on COWS, the
decline mainly because of a big
run and lower prices at Chicago
today. Stockers and feeders
are weak today also, as the dry
weather is having a bad effect
on the demand from various
points in Kansas and Missouri.
Reports of rain in Kansas to-
day, and indications of rain for
Missouri tonight and tomorrow,
are of some benefit to the mar
ket today, but this week will be
a good opportunity TO secure
cheap cattle, as there was 5000
more stockers and feeders held
over from last week than at the
end of the previous week, and
as great a number as at the end
of any week this fall. Some
show steers sold at SO last week,
but top on the open market, out
side OF the Harbaugh steers
from Nebraska on Monday,
which were on the show order,
and brought So, was $50, and
only a few cattle above So. 80.
Grass steers are selling at SO. 40
to 81. 90, cows 50. go to $3.50, top
