.CRO0KSTON FEELS
sure Of GAME
Reports From Minnesota City
Give Picketts walloping
Sunday


the Pickett park in East Grand Forks
the Picketts will cross bats with the
aggregation Of ball tossers from
Crookston, which thinks it can play
0all. The local team is better than
ever and from the exhibitions they
have made 80 far this season, the
Crookston bunch will have to exceed
the speed limit to get anything that
looks like a run.
The Crookston outfit is there all
right, but how much there is the
question. A glance at the lineup will
show the fans that they will be able
10 play ball enough to make the Pick
etts hustle Paddy" Martin behind

baserunner who steals on him will be

Importation for the special purpose Of
getting the Picketts' goat, this the
local boys do not intend shall happen,
as they need that particular goat"
to butt in with. As manager Stevens
Of the Crookston team saw the Pick
etts play last Sunday he undoubtedly
saw that he needed a pitcher of abil-
ity. no doubt carl" is the best. he
could get.
Mark" Stevens at the initial sack

fans. as his prowess is too we'll
known. In pinch he can adorn the
box. Mason Of the Thief River Falls
strong teams In the past years, is an
other well-known ball player who has
never failed to acquit himself cred
ltably. Barrett, another oldtimer, was
with Grafton last year and his hit
ting was always terror to the Pick
etts.
Chief" Balcourt has been seen
here before, when he and Happy Hal
lett were team mates. He is good
hitter and an excellent fielder and
adds strength to any team. Sisler,
Nelson and Peterson, can be counted
upon to play ball; all OF the time and
give good account OF themselves.
The illness Of Jessie Leigh weak
ems the Picketts in the pitching end
Of the team, but from the present in
dications he will be able to be at the
ball park Sunday and will probably
play the game. Alrick and Shannon
are both there with the wing and If
Alrick makes the ball play tag with
the plate the way he did last Sunday
there is no doubt in the minds Of
many as the the resemblance the
Crookston batters will make to the
old fashioned garden gate with the
loose hinges.
The grounds will be in excellent
condition for Sunday and there will
be no chance to say anything about
wet grounds. This coming game will
certainly be hummer and the fans
will get three times their moneys
worth If the Crookston outfit Is half
as good as they are cracked up to be.
The line up Sunday will be as fol-
1orye.

CREDIT TO stokes.

Whatever the outcome OF the
approaching election may be,
the Republicans Of the state
viii have to give former
Governor Stokes the credit for
putting up practically the only
campaign their party is max
ing this fall. The Republican state
committee has taken no part what
ever, as far as the committee itself
Is concerned. 1t claims 1t has not
been called upon by any of the
county committees to render any
aid. But heretofore the state COM
mittee has not waited for such In
vitations. 1t has been the leader
and has made the program for the
county committees.
Former Governor Stokes offered
his services to the state committee,
but there seemed to be nothing
doing" Mr.. Stokes did not hesi-
tate to criticise this inactivity. and
he then started out on the. stump on
his own hook. He saw Governor Will
son touring the state urging a Dem
ocratic legislature and he saw that
the governor was practically un-
challenged. OF course. the Repub-
lican state committee realize that
much of what Governor Wilson says
is true. The Republicans had their
opportunity to carry out their prom
ises to the people and they failed
to do 1t. The Democrats, under the
leadership of Governor Wilson. in
year accomplished more real
popular legislation than the Re-
publicans In all their years of power.
This truth is brought home to the
people so forcibly by the governor
his present tour that the Repub-
lican state committee doubtless
it Is useless to try to answer
{.
But former Governor Stokes
cells that the Republican party
for something and that that
omething Is worth fighting for. 1t
must be admitted that Stokes hasn't
very much to stand On and he is not
meeting with much success in his
efforts to reply to the broadsides Of
the popular governor, but he is TAX
