LOWER PRICES FOR TURKEYS
Thanksgiving Day Birds May Be
Cheaper This Year.

Vermont turkeys, which abound IN
almost countless numbers throughout
Grand Isle at this time of the year.
may not be such luxury this coming
Thanksgiving as they have been IN
wears past. according to the best in
formation on the subject obtainaDle
Saturday by a Free Press represent
alive.
It is claimed that the top price for
the best birds this year will be
around the 80 cent mark, retail,
while the average price for medium
birds, meat dealers say, will probab-
Nv range not far from 25 cents per
pound, retail. The reasons given are
various. II is claimed that Boston
buyers, who are generally treading
on each Otlar's heels throughout
Grand Isle at this time Of the year,
are holding Off. The Boston market
is said to be easy and the Western
supply Of birds good a turkey buy
err who has been in the vicinity for
several days did not close up any or
ders. as he would not go above p
cents per pound.
The farmers. however, are holding
out for a higher price, II Is said, and
the result. according to the dealers,
is going to be that whole hocks OF
the birds will come trouping on to
the market at the last moment at
prices within the reach OF all. Right
here comes the funny situation con
corning this whole turkey business.
While the buyers are holding of, the
farmers are actually so optimistic
over the outlook that many Of them
II is said are buying cereal at four
cents per pound and feeding it to the
birds to fatten them. One firm In
Burlington that deals In certain
cereal. during the last week, sold
| 375 boxes OF the food to Grand Isle
farmers. and the same firm is buying
the food by the carload and shipping
II TO the turkey district. This break
fast food is prepared by the farmers
| In the same manner as when served
at the table. and given to the birds
to fatten them II has been found
that the coarser grains do not agree
with the turkeys as the birds are
very hard to raise
Foxes have played havoc with the
turkeys on Grand Isle this year, &C
cordlng to the manager OF a concern
in this city, who spends much time
in the islands. One farmer reports
having lost 100 turkeys by foxes ant

eRleFlrHs SMOOTH TRICK
How He Drew Wool over Billy Ev-
ans Eyes One Day

gus GINo WV 10y
Clark Griffith worked the smooth.
est trick ever put over on him, Billy
Evans says Griif not only caught
Billy mapping, but pulled the wool
over his eyes as well. This la the
story, as related by Fearless Bill;
"Grimth was managing the Yam
KEGS the second year umpired and In
a game In Chicago he protested
against Ed Walshs half back motion
toward first base, which made II Inn
possible for Yankee base runners to
tell when Walsh would pitch and
when he would throw to first.
"a couple OF Yankees had been
caught ofi FIRST and Griffith came to
me and said, Walsh makes a full
back every time he pitches with a
man on FIRST My players are intelli-
gent base runners and they wouldn't
be shown up as they are II Walshs
delivery wasn't illegal
AN right, ! promised Grifl, the
next time one OF your players is
showed up will call balk on
Walsh.
Meal Bali got on in the next inn.
ing. took a lead aud was caught off
FIRST by 10 feet. told him TO go to
second Walsh kicked and then a
great llght broke upon me.
Griffith had told Ball to take an
unusually long lead and get caught,
relying on my promise to call balk
II that very thing happened.
u asked Crin while the NapCincln
natl series was on II he remembered
the play He did
Did YOU tell Ball to get caught
purposely7' asked.

PROSECUTORS AsAILeD
Governor Of Idaho Condemns Pardon
ing Of Bank Bookkeeper.


ing Of Bank Bookkeeper.
Boise, Idaho, Nov. 16.-Gov. James
H, Hawley yesterday gave out a sign
ed statement addressed to the people
OF Idaho, in which he condemns the
action OF President Taft in granting
a pardon Tuesday to Clarence w.
Robnett, bookkeeper in the Lewiston
national bank Of Lewiston, Idaho
Robnett was convicted Of embezzling
funds of the bank and was sentenced
In the federal court at Idaho Springs
to 10 years Imprisonment He never
entered upon service of his sentence.
Il feel that the pardon of Robnett
is fitting sequel to the proceedings
in the United States court during the
last four years while the special as
sistance to the United States attor-
ney.general have been usurping the
functions of the United States attor-
ney and his assistants, and have been
running the cases in which the Unit
ed States has been Interested with q
high hand regardless of justice OF
decency." the statement sets forth
For more than four years, in every
important case in which the United
States was interested, the regular
prosecuting officers have been retired
and these special assistants to th'
encouragement have been given full
control
Without the slightest interest II
our state, caring nothing for our pee
pie, simply DESTROYS of establishing
a reputation in the department OF Jus
tice, these special prosecutors hav
done more to injure Idaho and retaru
its development since the fall of 1870
than all other causes combined. Tn
injustice OF this action of Presiden
Taft, inspired without doubt by tn
special prosecutors, will long rankl
in the minds Of our citizens and vii
inspire them with a wholesome col
tempt for such disgracefu method,
1t is probably unfair to severed
blame President Taft directly for thi
unspeakable action. as he undoubteC
ly acted at the request OF Attorney
General Wickersham, who evidentl
had been in collision with his as
sociates in charge Of this prosecu
ion.
