HE FAILED TO COME.

Father O'Rvan of Denver, who was,
to have addressed a big mass meet
ing at tie Congregational church in
this city last night, wired Secretary
House of the y. NJ. c. 4. Saturday
night that, owing to the sudden and
serious Illness of his assistant pas
tor, he would not be able to fill his
engagement in Grand Junction at
this time.
The inability of the noted Catholic
divine to come was great disap-
pointment; but it is hoped to have
him here for another date in the
near future.
However, the mass meeting was
not called off, and Rev. j. Q. YER
million, the able and eloquent pas
tor of the Palisade Methodist church,
delivered a stirring address before
the great audience that filled the
Congregational church to overflow
ing. He told of the campaign against
the saloons waged in Palisade, and
discussed other phases of the saloon
and law and order question.
An excellent program of musical
numbers was also rendered at the
meeting last night.

The Aspen bali team presented a
better front yesterday than was an
ticipated by the local fans. Their
main strength, however. lay in the
heady pitching of Ballinger. who has
a reputation as a good box general
throughout the state and especially
in the college clubs.
He played hard to make win
ming, and, had he had the support
that he should have had, would have
made the score perhaps look differ
emily from what it did.
The locals did not score until the
third inning, while the Aspen boys
pushed in a run in the second.
In the fourth inning the Aspen
boys went up in the air and the To-
Gals scored four runs. although they
were not all earned, the third base
man OF the Aspen team being respon-
sible for the error that sent the first
run in for the Grand Junction team:
Burkhardt did some of his best
twirling in the first half of the third
inning. He struck out the three men
of the Aspen team. In several of
the other innings Burkhardt struck
out several of the Aspen bunch.
Aspen must be credited with two
very fine double plays. made by their

second and first basemen. This
brought them the cheers of the grand
stand. as they were really well
played.
Richter at short made bad FUN
BILE in the sixth, and again in the
eighth inning.
Goldsworthy played his usual
faultless game from first to last, and
was there with the stick for three
bagger and at another time perhaps
might have made home run had
he felt equal to the running game.
Kitzmiller in left made long run
for a very hard fly that shows that
he is always there with the goods.
He batted yesterday with more eff
feet than ever before. He did not
attempt to make long hits, but safe
ones. and he seemed to throw them
into any part of the field he desired.
1t was a good game; but on the
part Of the locals rather loose
game. which gave the Aspen team
several runs in the last inning to
which they were not entitled.
The score stood to at the close
of the ninth inning. the Aspen team
making three runs in the last in
ming.

gave MIN their enthusiastic supper for
governor TWO years ago were dis
appointed when ne accepted the
attorney generalship. Il looked To them
very much like 2 man VINO wanted 2
big Office but was willing 10 take any
kind Of an Office rather than have No
Office al all. Here is what the World
mas 10 say:
The question Of the candidacy Of
Iohn D. Atkinson for governor mas been
discussed considerably throughout the
state-more So perhaps IL other parts
Of the state than II mas been al home.
M. Atkinson Is IL 2 peculiar position
in many WAYS. Chelan county II the
Dast mas gone down the line toT nm
and perhaps ne is expecting the same
in the coming campaign. There are
some things which even MI. Atkinson
IS moi aware Of. Perhaps ne does not
know that some Of the people who have
been instrumental il urging his candi-
dacy are going 10 throw MIN overheard
little later. The trend Of the present
campaign Is for line mp Of the Ankeny
forces with those Of Mcbride.
The Seattle Times Is the latest
convert to Mcbride Mcbride is
essentially 2 politician. That railroad
howl OF ms II the last campaign is now
believed TO have been merely ior effect.
In the same blackboard with Nc
Bride and Ankeny is to be found Land
Commissioner Ross.
Under the circumstances II would
seem that the straight road for Chelan

that which leads 10 clean politics and
whose leader is W L. Jones. With
Jones viii be found Governor Mead
and in on county I. A. Navarro, the
candidate for state land commissioner,

made good official as state auditor
and q good one as state attorney gen
eral, put II the present line mp he is
going 10 be thrown overheard by the
very ones ne thinks are going TO De
