"A BROWN BROTHER TRYIN TO GET AWAY
WITH HIS CHEST PROTECTOR"
cuss an smoke, so ! organized two
baseball mines to get 'em interested in
somethin' besides their bein' a long
ways from home.
II pitched for one side an Dick
Murphy for the other. an we used to
have some hot old games, with the
scores up in the twenties an the ball
in the air nine-tenths O. the time.
don't know where those rockies was
raised, but there wasn't one of 'em
could catch fly in his own soup.
"Well. the natives used to congre-
gate about that ball field like ants
round a dead bug, an, bein' gamblers
by instinct an bringin' up, they'd take
sides an bet while a grounder was
rollin' down to second base whether
the batter beat it to first or not. An if
it was a close decision the ones that
lost would set up a howl that made it
sound like the baldheaded bunch back
home.
For excitement an blood stirrin'
them baseball games beat horse race
an a dog fight combined, for which
ever side had just had it's innin' was
pretty sure to be ahead. So the score
seesa wed between 'em an was likely
to stand somethin' like 81 to % at the
end of the match.
Worst trouble we had was with
balls. If we batted one into the crowd
it disappeared like a soap bubble. A
west side mob in Chicago was nothin'
to them Filipinos. I've seen boy on
nant game at home stick his hand up
an pick a foul fly out O. the air an
ram the ball in his pocket all with one
motion. But them little brown ones
would get away with the trick with
out maxim any motion at all.
I'VE couldn't figure what they want
ed 'em so bad for an finally laid it to
the instinct to grab anything that
wasn't nailed down. But we missed
our guess all right, for them heather
was swipin' our baseballs to learn
'emselves the game with. We hadn't
been playin' more'n two weeks our
selves before we was called out to
quell a riot. When we arrived we
found eighteen O. the little devils
pOundin' the daylight out O. a nine
teenth. We learned afterward that it
was two baseball teams gettin' square
with the umpire, but somebody had
hid the balls an bats before we come
up, an we never suspected it at the
time
"A day or two later a little man
turned up with a hollow where his
nose ought to have been an wanted
the doctor. He said somethin' had hit
him. Next day our only catchers mask
disappeared. an we had to send down
to Manila for another. 1t got so we
didn't dare lay glove down without
standin' on it, an my catcher. Tommy
Rourke. near broke the neck Of a
brown brother he caught tryin' to get
away with his chest protector.
"Well. that sort O. thing went on for
maybe a month. an then we had q
surprise. Up trots a bunch o little
niggers an challenges US to game o
baseball.
"'Why,' says, we amt got no time
to learn you the game
with that they passes up the infor-
nation that they reckoned they knew
the game well enough from watchin'
us play
"'All right. then | says. Come
around Thursday an well play you
game
"Well. when D company heard the
news they took it for an act o. Provi-
dence. Course we couldn't see it but
one way. 1t looked like the softest

sort o. braced up then. an the next one
came over with a little more speed.
Henwick squared away. an | thought
it was home run sure, but he never
touched 1t. A groan went up from the
boys an then yell as the catcher
turned an sprinted after the ball. He'd
dropped it after the third strike:
"Henwick galloped down to first, an
the man on third came home. That
tied the score. The bases were still
full, an 1t looked like we couldn't help
haatin' EN- But right there came the

HARD PROBLEM TO SOLVE.

just how newspaper can raise it's
voice for cleaner politics and other
lofty ideals, and at the same time up
hold the liquor traffic, with all its
1amnable results, is more than the
ordinary human mind can grasp.
Think of supposed reputable news
paper being opposed to law, order
and every day decency, and then
prate about dishonesty in the public
service. Could anything. be more un-
reasonable? A newspaper that will
not gracefully submit to the will of a
majority places too high an estimate
on its own opinion. and sooner or
later it loses the respect of all fair
minded people; and as for influence,
chances are it never had any.-Koos-

THREE NoTAeLEs IN GROUP.

1t happened last Thursday that
John Nugent, chairman of the demo

O'Neil, chairman republican state cen

chairman and at present governor Of
the state of Idaho, were all passen-
gers on the train for Camas Prairie.
At Lapwai Manager Shissler, O'Neil's
capable lieutenant, marshalled the
prominent trio ON the platform, with
Nugent In the center, and the Inland
Herald artist took a snap shot at the
greatest bulk of state politics ever
coralled in one bunch. While stand
ing In line, Gov. Brady turning to
Committeeman Nugent, asked:
What are you going to do to us,
anyway, john"
For the present, Jim, am going
to keep you and Barney apart. but
later On"
Just then the kodak snapped. the
train whistled and John did not stop
to tell just what he expected to do
to one or both of the republican CUB
ernatorial candidates later ON in the
campaign, when the real battle of the
ballots begins.
Brady and O'Neil were on their way
to the Nez Perez railroad celebra-
ton, and Nugent was enroute to
Grangeivlle to drill the local flock on
a few essential points in the COM

THINKS COMPROMISE WRONG.

Prosecuting Attorney Gilmore made
an example of the right man when he
put Tamblyn through the mill and
ground him up. The only mistake
was that compromise. There should
be no leniency whatever in case of
this kind. The man sold liquor In
open defiance of the law and his con-
duct called for severe punishment. He
got off altogether too easy. How
ever, the prosecuting attorney and
the sheiff's office did nobly. There
is no reason now why the church
people and the reform forces of Ida
no county should not stand by Mr..
Gilmore. His actions in these cases
show that he can't be bluffed and
there is no doubt about his sincerity
in enforcing the laws.-Kooskia Noun

JOHN NUGENT
VISITS THEM
NJ
State Chairman Issues Bitter
Dose to Local Demo-
cratic Flock.

Democratic State Chairman Johr
Nugent arrived in the city last Thurs
day from a tour of the northern por
ton of the state, in which he visited
about every town of importance In
the panhandle district and took into
his confidence" the various local
flocks, instructing them as to state
policies and what course OF action
would be absolutely necessary in Ger.
tain vital matters to insure the party
a fighting chance In the forthcoming
election
Chairman Nugent has strong per.
sonality, is full of magnetism, vital.
ity and nerve force, and with all is
diplomatic. He charms with his per.
sonality. compells with his force of
character and guides and directs with
his polished diplomacy In such a
skillful and tactful manner as to
gain his desired ends and at the
same time lead the opposing ele-
ment5 to believe that they have made
little concession, or, possibly, had
suggested the proposed policy or
plan themselves.
1t Is claimed that all of these COM
pelling forces of the state chairman
were invoked at last Thursday nights
meeting and were brought to bear
upon the local democracy with tell
tsrsf n4F =. =
stubborn resistance was In the at
mosphere at times, but all fell harm
less and helpless before the seduc-
tive wiles of the state chairman, and
at the close of the bloodless, but
none the less real, battle of mind
over matter, when all was summed
up, 1t was clearly disclosed that the
king bee had secured all the honey
dew for his hive.
1t was bitter, bitter dose for
some of the faithful to gulp down,
and 1t is stated ON pretty good
authority that quite number only
took the pill in their hands and have
later declared that the sacred pre-
clncts Of their internal anatomy shall
never be desecrated by such a dry
and nauseating dose as that pre-
scnebd by DIR. Nugent-that they
will vote for republican governor
first. And so the political troubles
are multiplied and intensified, and
the now trembling superstructure of
party allegiance is shaken to its
foundation stones by more insurgen-
cy.
One place, however, where har-
monious action was reached was in
the agreement that none but the
male sex need apply for the demo
cracy for the office of state superin-
tendent of public instruction-th
ladies are absolutely and irrevocably
barred from the slate by unanimous
action.
This does not look like a diplo-
matte stroke, in view of the mon
sextarian" law in Idaho; but then
democracy as advocated by that par
ty. always has meant strictly male
democracy"

A vaudeville team was dissolved by

Meet With No Mercy
/. From the Court
Life Term for Lee H0rrell and
Twenty-Five Years for
Walter Anderson

Life imprisonment for Lee Horrell
and a 25 year term for Walter Ander-
son were the sentences imposed yester-
day by Judge Cabaniss on the two rob-
bers who entered the home of Thomas
f. Gleason in Dolores street, tied Glea-
son, his sister and his wife to the
furniture, and stole SIS in cash and a
ring worth $50, Anderson, who is but
II years of age, when he confessed to
the crime made the statement that 1t
was but an April fool joke. The
robbery occurred April 1, 1910
Both men pleaded guilty last Wednes-
day, and at that time were warned by
Judge Cabaniss that they must expect
severe punishment. In the case of
Horrell, the judge had no option but
to impose life sentence, for the rea-
son that in. 1892 he was convicted of
murder and served a term in Folsom.
He was subsequently pardoned by Gov
ernor Pardee. The man knew that he
must be given a life term, and heard
the formal announcement of sentence
without sign of emotion.
District Attorney Fickert urged that
In regard to Anderson the extreme PEN
atty should also be imposed. He said
that the evidence showed that this de-
fendant, although much the younger of
the Two men, was the real lHStlSdtOT
of the crime. Fickert also pointed out
that the testimony in the police court
tended to show that Anderson medi-
tated worse crime than robbery, and
only the unexpected presence of Glea-
son in the daytime prevented his car
rying out this design.
Father O'Brien, who confirmed Ander-
son, informed the court that so far
as his observation went the young
men was not confirmed criminal, and
asked Judge Cabaniss to exercise such
leniency as he felt he properly could.
In reply to the district attorney,
Judge Cabaniss said he had no inten-
tion of sentencing Anderson to life
term, but in view of the fact that in
addition to robbery with violence there
was the element of invasion of a mans
domicile, and further that 1t appeared
an attack upon women was contem-
plated, he would be very severe. In
asmuch as the defendant was but 81
years old, he considered a sentence of
% years a severe penalty.
Anderson sat down blinking in a
dazed manner when he heard his doom
pronounced. Both Horrell and Ander-
son will be confined in San Quentin.
