WILL Be GUEST At
SPOKANE THEATER

The pennant winning Indians,
pride of all Spokane's loyal base
ball fans, will arrive in the city
some time this evening, time, tide
and the o. r. & N. railway COM
pany permitting.
Bobby Burns never wrote a truer
axiom than when he penned that
good old saying. "The best laid
plans o mice an men gang aft
aglee." 1t had been expected to
have the Spokane ball tossers ar
rive In the city in time so that a
game could be played this after
noon, but this plan was knocked
out by the non-arrival of the train,
which is now expected to come in
some time after 5 o'clock. Then
again it had been expected that the
team would be met at the train by
a committee of enthusiastic fans
and cttingly welcomed to the pen
nant city; but this plan was
knocked in the head by the fact
that election is on today and all
the real enthusiasts are engaged In
electioneering.
So the boys will arrlove home
with no public demonstration, al
though a number of minor loyalists
will be at the train to shake them
by the hand when they arrive.
This evening the Indians and the
members of the all-star team will
be entertained at the Spokane
theater as the guests of Manager
Yorke. who has placed two of the
best boxes in the house at their
disposal.
Tomorrow the first game of the
post-pennant season will be played
at the league grounds, and the two
teams will clash in what will un-
doubtedly be one of the most hard
ly fought series of the season.
The all-stars are already In the
city and are anxious to get into the
fray, they being imbued with the
Idea that they will be able to show
the victorious Indians point or
two about the national game be-
fore the series Is ended.
The all-stars will line up tomor-
row as follows:
Joss, Jensen, Erickson. pitchers;
Blankenship. catcher; Fred Weed,
1b; Breen, 2b; Akin, 3b; Raymond,
IS; Stevens, rf; Householder, CT;
and Adams, If.
The Indians will go into the
game with their regular lineup.
Many people have become i'm
bued with the idea that Baker, Kill
lilay and Bonner, Spokane's three
star pitchers, were to go East i'm
medately after the close of the sea-
son and were not to be seen n the
post-season games. This Is denied
by Secretary Leary of the local
club. who declares that all three
men will be seen in action during
the week. Kratzberg and Holm
will also be in the city and may be
used during the series.

team at Portland and have gone to

All Sides in Charter Elec-
II tion Working Hard
Today.

What appeared week ago to be
nice, tame, Iadylike election for
IS commissioners to draft the new
city. charter has developed into a
first class, interesting political
scrap, in which some close finishes
are looked for.
The voting this morning was a
game of cut and slash, In so far as
the two tickets in the field are con-
cerned. The voter took his time to
look over the ballot and the fact
that he took both tickets into the
booth with him and the time con-
sumed in fixing up his ballot was
taken as an indication that he was
voting it to suit himself.
SEVERE SURPRISES.
The surprise of the situation this
morning was that the business
mems ticket was being scratched
in the Second ward, where 1t was
thought it would be voted solid,
while union laboring men and vot-
ers sin the residence districts were
cutting into the original or Munter
t1ckel IN ike manner.
Some of the church element back
ing the Munter ticket is cutting the
labor representative on the ground
that there are too many of them. AS
rule, the members of organized
labor met at the polls are support
ing the Munter ticket better than
the other elements are supporting
the labor end of it.
BOTH SIDES WORKING.
Both sides were represented with
workers at the polls today. While
possibly the citizens or business
men's ticket had the best of 1t in
the early hours in the Second ward.
