|MALERICH
APPEALS CASE
Trial Was Held Monday Before
Probate Court at GrangeviIIe---
Rice Trial Will be Held Later.
Perhaps in March.

The case Of the Camas Prairie
Railway Co. against Ed. Mailer
lch came up at Grangeville Mon
day before the probate court and
occupied most of the day. The
case is one which arose from the
theft of a barrel of beer from
the local depot platform the lat
ter part Of last month. Malerich
and Bailey Rice, who were en-
ployed at the Kerr Clifford ware
house, were charged with having
taken the beer. Rice demanded
a separate trial and his case, we
understand, has been set for No
vember 18th.
Malerich was tried before a
jury and after being out for six
hours the jury returned a verdict
of guilty and the Judge assessed
a fine of $10O and costs, amount
ing in all to $500. Malerich gave
bond and took an appeal and the
case will be tried again in March.
It is probable Rice's case may be
postponed until after the second
trial of Malerich.
A number of our citizens were
over to the trial in the capacity
of witnesses.

Be Much Grain Next Yea.

Unless something unforeseen
happens to cut the yield down
materially Camas Prairie will Il
harvest the largest grain crop
next year that it has ever bro
duced in its history. The condi-
ions have been ideal this fall
1or the planting of an extra large
acreage Of gram and there i
PROBABLY now larger amount Of
fall grain sown than for several
years past, and the end is not
yet.
Owing to the dry season this
year harvesting was completed
and most Of the grain delivered
10 the warehouses earlier than
when harvest operations draw to
a close in average years. Then
came several nice rains to put
the ground into good condition
for plowing and the result was
that all Of the summerfalIowed
land was planted at once and
then work commenced on the
land from which the crop had
just been removed. The soil
was very loose and many farm
ers worked it thoroughly with
disc cutters and then planted it,
thereby being able to put in
much more grain than if they
had had to first plow and then
seed the land.
All of the fall sown grain is
now looking fine and with the
good stand it will have before
cold weather arrives and the
large acreage planted the yield
next year should be a record
breaking one.

Late Season Ball Game.

The base ball microbe got to
working overtime among the ball
fans at Grangeville last week
with the result that they stirred
up a game with the Cottonwood
team on the local diamond Sun
day afternoon. The matter was
not broached here until Saturday
and the boys had no time toprac-
ice or prepare a lineup but they
were dead game and decided to
give the county seat lads a go,
win or lose.
Grangeville came over Sunday
with about the best it had in
stock while the locals could
scarcely scare up enough men to
fill the positions on the field but
they went at it hammer and
tongs just the same and put up
such a stiff game that the visitors
succeeded in winning out by only
the narrow margin of two scores.
The game seesawed from the
first to the last inning, when sew
eral errors allowed the visitors
to annex the long end of the
score. The feature of the game
was the three base hit by Felix
Funke which brought in two
runs. The visitors crowded in
on Felix, just because he is small.
and thought they would shut
things up tight but he pounded
one out over their heads and
made third base himself, only to
be tagged out when he slid past
the sack.

Farmers Hold Large Meeting.

The local farmers union held
an enthusiastic meeting here last
Saturday which was attended by
a large number of the members
of this local. During the session
Riley Rice and j. L. Eckert were
appointed delegates to attend the
convention at Walla Walla on the
21st when an attempt will be
made to secure a lower freight
rate on grain shipped east.
The farmers also decided to
build a platform addition to- their
warehouse at this point as the
house is now about full of grain
and more room will be needed to
accommodate the grain still to
be delivered. The platform will
be built in a substantial manner
so as to permit of its later being
covered and made a permanent
part of the warehouse. The
farmers are well pleased with
the business. handled by their
warehouse here this season and
expect a much larger trade next
year.
