LOW RATES BRING
H0MESEEKERS
Heavy immigration Headed
This Way for Next
Four Weeks.

Started within the last few days
from various points in the middle
west. the advance guard of the fall
immigrants are now headed for We
natchee and other points in the
northwest. Colonists' rates. estab-
lished by the transcontinnental rail-
roads, serve as the inducement for
people to come west.
These schedules of fares are the
same as last year, the single fare
from Chicago being $33, from ST
Louis $32, ST. Paul and Minneapolis
s25 and Kansas City s25. Rates
from other cities are in proportion
Scarcely less important, according
to local judgment, to the reduction
of rates is the fact that a month s
stOpover is allowed on the tickets
for any points west of Mandan.
Wenatchee, in the expectation of real
estate men, will draw large share
of this stopover traffic. Having once
seen the valley and investigated the
possibilities of fruit raising, it is be-
lieved that many who stop over here
will either remain permanently OF
eventually find their way back
again.
The railroad rates will continue in
effect until October Is. giving the
travellers a month of bargain prices
for transportation.

Louis CrOllard Believes that Two
Terms as City Attorney Is
Sufficient.

Present City Attorney Louis Crol-
lard stated to the Daily World to-
day that he would not again be a
candidate for the office of city at
torney. He has held the office for
two terms and he believes that that
is sufficient, and as far as he is con-
cerned, he is willing to step aside
in favor of City Clerk Sam r. Sum-
ner, who yesterday announced that
he would file for the office.
Mr.. Crollard has made an excep-
tionally strong record as city attor-
ney and will go out with the good
will of all of the city officials.

call this morning from a ranch two

tier. Jumping into his swift auto.
the doctor arrived in a few minutes
and found that Mr.. White was suf-
fering from the bite of scorpion
instead of a RATHER. This is a large
insect, not very common in this
country. 1t is of the tarantula's
shape and appearance. and is very
poisonous.
Fortunately medical aid was at
hand in a short time and the patient
is now doing well. He congratulates

The French do nOt. as a rule employ
inverted commas to indicate a dialogue.
but they employ the dash to indicate
a change Of speakers, which is just as
bad Certainly many punctuation marks
are sadly misused or overused. Dick
ems flung unnecessary commas all over
his pages-whole battalions of them.
Walter Pater also employed them with
extraordinary prodlgality frequently
before the word land" where the con
junction rendered them superfuous.
Pater was also overload Of the mark
Of exclamation, so that when he drops

BASEBALL TALK AT RUTLAND
Marble City Would Like to Join
League with Bennington

The recent formation of a baseball
league including Bennington, in the
southern part Of this state, has rous-
ed Rutland citizens to the realization
that it is time to be doing something
if this city is to have any baseball
during the coming summer and some
OF the business and professional men
are agitating the question
There seems 10 be division Of
opinion as to whether Rutland should
make an attempt to get in with the
southern league or whether the city
should combine as in the past with
Burlington, Montpelier, Barre and
Plattsburg, the balance of opinion
evidently being in favor Of the south
ern combination. but many fans
would support any move that might
be made to secure either formation.
The reasons given by the support
ers Of the southern league policy for
their stand are that inasmuch as the
effort made last year to get in with
the northern cities was Intellectual
and apparently no interest could be
aroused the other arrangement
would be new, the field would be new
and a different territory would assure
better crowds and greater success.
The name of Arthur w Daley pro-
prietor of the Colonial bowling alleys
who has formerly been prominent in
promoting the game in the state and
who has during the past winter made
Rutland successful center of sports
through the wrestling matches which
he has arranged, has been mentioned
as the man to take hold of the
thing and see that IT is pushed Nh
Daley, although acknowledging thai
Rutland needs baseball, and that i
he took hold of it it could be dons
says that he is not at this time il
a position to be certain whether o.
not he wants to attempt anything o
the kind as his business interests re
quire a large portion of his time
He favors the old arrangement of tn
Northern league and thinks tina
there are great possibilities in it,

PRIMARY IN SECOND DISTRICT.

The Second district democratic COM
mittee met in Norfolk, yesterday, to
adopt plan for the nomination OF a
democratic candidate for Congress to
fill the vacancy created when the State
central committee declared void the re-
suit OF the primary OF August %, in
which w. J. Young was nominated on
the face of the returns.
1t soon became apparent that three
members OF the committee-Chairman
Day, Col. w. w. Sale and A. G. Crom-
well-wanteda nominating convention,
while ]. F. West, DIR. F. s. Hope and
Joe" West were steadfast for a pri-
mary. A hot fight followed before the
committee, in which the candidate for
congress and others took part. Most
of the organization speakers favored the
convention, while the insurgents, who
we're in the majority, clamored for a
primary.
II was decided to hold convention
at Suffolk, on Monday, October IL, to
nominate candidate for Congress.
Delegates to the convention will be
named by the various candidates fol
lowing a primary to be held next Fri
day. Instead OF voting for delegates in
the primary, votes will be cast for the
candidates and they will name the dele
gates on basis OF one delegate for
every 80 votes cast. Those opposed to
the organization will support State Sen
ator f. E. Holland, of Suffolk, in the
primaries.
Most Of Young'S strength will come
out OF Norfolk city and Norfolk county
while Maynard will get many delegates
from Portsmouth and most OF those
Holland does not get in the counties.
Other candidates are j. I. Deal, Of
Norfolk, and j. Peter Holland, Of
Franklin. The primaries will be held
on October IA.
