TIRED, BUT HAPPY, INDIANS

Tired out by long and tedious
20-hour ride from Portland, the
Spokane Indians, Northwestern
league champs, arrived in the city
about 6 o'clock last evening, more
than glad to be back home again.
The boys express themselves as
well pleased with their. trip to
Portland and say that even though
they failed to win the inter-league
game they made the Portland
Beavers do some of the tallest ball
and that the crowd was on edge all
the way for fear the Indians would
pull out in the lead.
Coming up from Portland the
boys say there must have been
something wrong with the o. r. Il
N. coal, as the engine had to stop
at nearly every other station to fill
UP the tender.
&-,All the Indians came home with
the exception of Brooks, Cart
wright, Claflin and Hetling. There
was no public demonstration when
they arrived, but they were met at
the train by few enthusiastic
fans and heartily congratulated on
having won the first pennant that
has come to Spokane in 20 years.
Every member of the team says
that he will be in shape for a hard,
fast game when they line up
/against the All-Stars at Recreation
kpark this afternoon.
Captain Harry Ostdiek will run
the Indians during the pOst-season
games, while Breen will have
charge Of the All-Stars. AS at

ALL MONEY

President Joseph p. Cohn has do
mated the use of the ball grounds to
the teams for the post season ser

the actual running expenses of the
games will be divided among the
players of the two teams. Cohn had
agreed to chip in 5000 of the purse
which 1t had been proposed to raise
for the Indians as a reward for wiz
ming the pennant, and when this
plan fell through he announced that
no charge would be made for the

GOOD Showing
ON THREE mile

During the winter months work has
been done on nearly all those claims at
National situated between Three Mile
and Canyon creeks, with encouraging
results.
On the White Hope group J. s. Nc
Laughlin has run tunnel into the hill,
at vertical depth of 400 feet, for a
distance of $50 feet. Assays taken
from the face of the tunnel show gold
values of 1890 per ton. 1t is expect
ed that the main ledge will be encount-
cred at further distance of so feet,
when it is thought high h-grade will be
found.
On the same property leaser named
Flanagan has tunnel in for dis
tance of but 80 feet, with assays of
$33 per ton.
James Kerwin, working another lease
on the White Hope, has struck quartz
that is unusually rich in free gold.
George w. White, the pioneer pros
pector of the Three Mile country, has
ten valuable claims in this locality, in
addition to half interest in the Blue
Jay group. All of the properties are
showin0 up in manner for beyond ex-
pectations. The Blue Jays are contin-
uations of the radiator group, in which
the big strike was recently made by
the Dwyer lease, and they are expected
to develop inD one of the finest mines
in the camp. Three Mile creek, which
runs through the property, will furnish
an abundance of water during the en-
tire year for all purposes.

Low Rates ASSUR-
Ed BY new CANAL

Admiral Robley D. Evans, in series
of articles now running in an eastern
magazine, clearly proves the superiori-
ty of water over rail transportation,
and shows why the transcontinental
railway lines have consistently opposed
the Panama canal. 1t is shown that
shippers will not only save about half
of the present freight charges, but that
goods can be laid down in the east
from this coast in ID days, when it
now requires four to six weeks. Six
thousand ton ships, having speed of
16 knots, can make the time in Ia days
and make big money handling freight
at So to $4 per ton and passengers at
less than half the present rate by rail.
Large interests like the fruit and wine,
could afford to charter and operate a
powerful ship. The facilities for cold
storage equipment on modern ships is
ideal, carrying ice and refrigerating
plants on board. Oranges and lemons
can be laid down in the east to cost
less than SOC per box freight, while
other fruits can be shipped in proper
tion, while canned goods Of all kinds
can be shipped at one half to one third
the present railroad rates. One reason
there has never been a regular line of
American ships from the east plying
a ronnd tho Horn 70 Dooi6c norts hoe
been for want of return cargoes. BY
the short route the canal will furnish
return cargoes will be obtained at the
expense of the railroads. If there can
not be sufficient business to maintain n
regular line of steamers there will be
a fleet of tramp steamers coming and
going that will always bid for freight
and passengers, and ultimately force
the railroads to make great cuts in
present rates.
While it is possible to arrive at Gun
destandings' between railway and
steamship companies to keep up rates
it cannot be arranged with tramp ships.
Each is free lance, bidding for bust.

anything but the law of supply and de-

no more than ordinary board and lodg-

Even at these low prices these big

railroads. Therefore we can depend
upon getting low freight and transpor-
tation rates when the Panama canal is
completed.
