lnfantile Paralysis

Many children in the Cottonwood
and Denver sections are afflicted with
a strange malady, which most of the
physicians pronounce as infantile par
alysis, and of late conditions have been
growing serious. There are reported
to be about sixty cases in Cottonwood
and vicinity and the physicians there
have been busy for weeks treating
the different victims. Several chill.
dren around Denver are also afflicted
and two deaths have res ulted there.
The local doctors have been called
to treat a few cases west of the city
but up-to-date there have been nc
cases reported locally. Spokane and
other cities of the Inland Empire re.
port few cases.
1t is said that the disease has been
spreading in various sections of the
coast country for weeks.
lnfantile paralysis is one of the
most deadly infant diseases known te
medical science. Almost always
death results and if not the victim is
practically sure to be marked witt
some dreaded after-ehect. The dis
ease spreads rapidly through the all
and dust and the parents are warned
to provide sanitary food and care fo
their children and guard in every pos
sible way against the ravages of th,
disease. The common housefy, it il
said is factor in spreading the NAL
ady.

There is persistent talk among the

favoring a street fair and carnival for

most worthy one and plans for the

18th and it has been suggested that
the local event be held the week be-
fore in order that the exhibits of

Candidates for Office Must File
Nominations BY Then
SOME PRIMARY LAW POINTS
Amount of Fees Candidates
Must Pay for Filing

The time is fast approaching when
the nomination papers Of candidates
for nomination for political offices
must be filed in the Office Of the coun-
tv auditor. Under the law, each can
didate for nomination must file a
nomination paper, signed by quail
fled elector at least thirty days prior
to the date set for the Primary elec-
ton. The date set by the statute for
the election is the last Tuesday OF
August. All papers must therefore
be filed thirty days prior to that date
that is on or before July Both. This
means that candidates must be getting
busy, the names of candidates cannot
be placed upon the Primary ballot
unless the nomination papers have
been properly filed.
The statute provides that the nomi-
nation papers must be accompanied by
either fee or by petition. The fee
is at least two dollars and if the sal
ary Of the office is in excess of $500
per annum, the fee is two dollars plus
an additional sum, equal to one pei
cent of the salary in excess of $500
The fees for the various offices, based
upon the salary of each Office as now
fixed will be as follows:
State Senator s..
State Representative 81.
Sheriff SIS.
Clerk of District Court SIS.
Assessor $14.
County Treasurers 81.
Prosecuting Attorney $11.
Probate Judge $40.
County Superintendent Of Public
Institution SO.
County Surveyor 81.
County Coroner 81.
If the nomination paper is not ac
companied by fee it must be accom-
panied by petition signed by at leas
five per cent of the number of party
electors of the county. This is deter
mined by the number of votes cas1
for the candidate of the political party
for governor at the last general elec
tion. The petitions Of republican can
didates must be signed by at leas
1O5 qualified electors. The peti
tion Of democratic candidates must b.
signed by 81 electors. 1t is no
necessary to file both the fee and th'
petition. The petition must show th'
precinct in which each person, VIII
signs the same, resides and must hav
tive per cent of the electors in at leas
one-fourth the precincts of the county
1t is thought that this information
will be of interest to those who expec
to become candidates at the coming
primaries.

By Harold Harris

1t was sure a gutta percha victory
that Reubens stretched over Lewiston
at the. ball park Sunday afternoon.
There was elasticity everywhere.
The players had it strong, so did the
bleachers and the grandstand. The
final score was IA to l3 and ought to
create an immediate impression upon
the intellect of the absent fan that the
contest will be famous as a galaxy Of
hits and runs and errors rather than
game of real baseball But the fans
got the worth of their money.
The game was the fifth of the sea-
son for the two teams and as each had
won two of the previous contests a
definite settlement of the supremacy
hung in the balance. Also what
might be called the championship Of
Nez Perce county. was concerned in
the game and to Reubens must be
handed this bouquet. Lewiston put
up stubborn game and really played
better ball in the field than the vic
tors.
Lewiston lifted the lid in the first
and looked like winners until the fifth.
Haaser, the Lewiston high school star,
was in the box for Lewiston and ap-
peared dangerous to the Reubens
hopefuls. He was particularly effec-
tive in the few pinches that surround
ed him until the fatetul fifth when the
heavy sluggers of the Reubens team
fell on his slants numerically, batting
out two homers and common count.
He was replaced by Thompson, who
did better work until the finish. Me-
Farland, behind the bat for the boys
from the Snake river metropolis, dish
ed up great baseball and was power
with the other players. The team as
whole is a good combination and, il
my opinion, lost the game through
weakness on the part OF the twirllne
staff and perhaps a bit more than
Just portion of bad luck. Still thu
Reubens cohorts batted and battec
hard when hits meant runs, a facult,
the Lewiston team did not seem t.
possess.
Karr, of the local team, slung spit
balls and other deceptive slants TO
Reubens and aside from perceptlbl
letup in one inning was miles to th'
good. The first game of the seasol
between Reubens and Grangeville wa
PLAYED at Reubens, resulting in : t.
f / score with Grangeville at the lowe
end. In that game karr struck ou
. Is men and won a home with Reuben
2 that has endured, 10! through thes
: many contests of the summer. iii
work was watched with unusual III
terest by all the local fans, for opin
ions of his real ability as a pitcher u
until this game have been both diver
, sifed and many. His record in thi
game shows 6sstrikeouts, with ii hit
against him. He has one wild pitc
and no fielding errors. This is a goo
showing. But it was with the willo'
!, that karr was most spectacular. II
