GoPHERs DEFEAT WERDENs.
Take the Whole Series, and Outclass
Their Opponents.

The Twin City Gophers, owned by
Glover Shull and managed by Bobby
Marshall, easily defeated Perry Wer-
den's all Stars at Nicollet Park on
July 1, 2, 3. The batting of Binga Nc
Dougall and Armstrong, in the first
game was the feature, Lefty Pang-
burn showed wonderful speed and
perfect delivery. The work of Mar
shall on first base, Bunch Davis on
End and Brown at 3rd was very good.
Selden, the short stop, is rare
player, and great support to the in
field. Bert James, Binga and Arm
stong are in the outfield with the
goods" Johnson and Davis are two
of the best pitchers on the team,
Davis is the iron man. Having
pitched nearly all the earlier games
this season. But Johnny loves the
game, and has the confidence of the
other players who support him better
than they do the other twirlers. Arm
strong did some great catching, and
his batting eye is very keen and his
whip strong. That throw to second
is unbeatable. McDougal is wonder
full batter. They can't beat him. The
sensational catch Of Binga, near the
right fence was grand, and the double
made of it was the candy. Brown
also stopped fast drive from Perry's
bat, and ended the series. The Co.
piers are right. Dude Lyttle, Scar
lett, and Hardaman are members Of
the team. All are good reserve play
ers. Mr.. Henry c. Jones of st. Paul
is the business manager. They ex-
pect some good games later with the
celebrated Keystones.
Johnney Davis, the star pitcher Of
the Gophers returned home on Thurs
day. He is suffering greatly with
sore eyes.

Quinn Wins First Game

The opening game of the season
between Philip and Quinn Tuesday
resulted in victory for the latter
by a score of four to two. About
a hundred fans of Philip and vicin-
ity were in attendance, and the
apparent equalness of the two
teams kept the crowd deeply in
terested until the last man was
out. Frank Arens was on the
slab for the locals and pitched one
of the best games ever seen in
Philip, allowing but few scatter
ed hits and no free passes to first
base. Had not the errors been
made all in a bunch, Quinn would
never have seen a run. With
Ramsey behind the bat and Wal
pole and Durkee in the game, it
seemed like old times and looked
like Philip would win, Quinn not

Let Justice be Done

The leaders of union labor can
not hope to retain the respect of
the American citizens and uphold
that class of men who travel around
the country dynamiting bridges,
homes and printing shops. De-
tective Burns has been shadowing
a bunch of these culprits for the
last year and he has caught them
red handed with the tools and the
dynamite, with which they have
destroyed 100000 of property,
and one hundred lives. The labor
unions have been at war with the
Times print shop in Los Angles,
and with manufactures of steel and
structural iron institutions that
have been blown up and destroyed.
When man is murdered and
robbed, the presumption is some
one done it who had a motive.
The Bad River news. [volume] (Philip, Stanley County, S.D.) 19??-1912, 1911-05-11
The Clothier

That motive was either for revenge
or robbery. No intelligent per-
son would accuse their friends of
committing these high crimes.
The lawyer and the detective go at
once after the man who has a mo-
tive for boycotting, retaliation and
revenge. Detective Burns and his
trained band of ferrets have taken
their cue from these we'll known
fundamental facts and have for a
year or more been shadowing
these men and gathering evidence
in overwhelming quantities with
which to convict them. While
every law abiding citizen is willing
to withhold judgement until the
parties have had a fair trial, the
presumption is general through
out the country that the men ac-
cused are guilty, and it i'll becomes
the labor leaders to rush into print
The Bad River news. [volume] (Philip, Stanley County, S.D.) 19??-1912, 1911-05-11

with the cry of fraud and frame
up, that can have no other effect
but to destroy the great combina-
tions of union labor. Ex-Presi-
dent Roosevelt is the great friend
of the laboring man. He comes
out in strong and bold statement
warning the leaders of the danger
to their cause by indulging in too
fulsome praise of these fine look
ing and supposed to be high mind
ed gentlemen. There has been
many wolf Ia two legged one)
found masquerading around in
sleeps clothing. There has been
and is today many a man wearing
the garb of a preacher, who is a
bank robber, a hold up man and a
murderer. They put on these
sanctimonious clothes to fool the
people, for everybody has re.
spect and faith in the church. II
The Bad River news. [volume] (Philip, Stanley County, S.D.) 19??-1912, 1911-05-11

is for this reason the wolves prowl
around and more easily catch their
victims. If the union labor leaders
would gain the respect and SYM
pathy of the people, they should
come out boldly and demand the
fullest investigation, and if found
guilty, the summary punishment of
men guilty of such dastardly
crimes. There is nothing that
could be more fatal to their cause
then the discovery that these men
are guilty of the awful crimes at
tributed to them. The whole
world shudders at the thought of
such men, high up in authority
deliberately plotting the death of
innocent men, women and child
rem just for revenge.

being able to push a run across the
plate until the sixth inning and
securing three more in the eighth.
Philip started out with the same.
old irresistible force and scored in
the first inning and one in the
seventh. The features of the game
were the phenomenal pitching of
Arens and a triple play by Frahme,
WaIpole and Mitchell. One pleas
ant feature of the game was the
lack of any wrangling or severe
kicking by either team through
out the entire exhibition. Lilli-
bridge, of Cottonwood, did the
umpiring and was given credit for
being strictly impartial at all times.

next team to play the locals, but

Coneumptjon In ireland.

One of the most interesting facts
brought out in the report of the regis
trar general for Ireland, just issued
as q blue book, is the maintenance of
the decrease in the mortality from
tuberculosis. which has now been con.
tfnuous since 1908. The death rate
from this disease fell from 81 PEI
1000 in 1907 to 2.6 in 1908; in the fol-
lowing year the rate declined to "a
per 1000. and in the year under re.
view to 2.3 per 1000. All who are
taking part in the campaign against
tuberculosis, says the registrar gen.
eral, are to be congratulated on the
results of their exertions. Special
mention must be again made Of the
Women's National Health association,
founded and presided over by the
Countess of Aberdeen. The simple
health principles propaganda Of this
association have tended toward this
result. Special attention should also
be given to the excellent work done
by the medical officers of health. who
have exceptional opportunities of un.
derstanding the home life and needs
Of the poorer classes. The county,
urban and rural district councils are
working in various ways for the bet
terment of the public health of the
country. notably in the provision of
improved dwellings for the people,
