Now in Prince Albert, Sask.

A letter from Leonard Trippe
this morning enclosing the neces-
sary for one years perusal of The
Villas County News, states that
in Saskatchewan, Canada crops
show promise of a record yield
this year and that harvesting is
now being started in full swing.

tor. The Empress is in Prince

Second game IA to 6.

The Cubs had things coming
their way in the afternoon, the
locals slumping from the very
start and suffering their first de-
feat of the season. Frankel in
the limeIight opened up the fracas
by passing the first two men up
and allowing the first four to
score. He was in no condition
to pitch it being his off day and
retired before the inning was over.
Larry went in and threw until
the sixth. Eagle River crossed
the pan three times in the first
inning and twice more in the
third putting them in thelead for
a couple of rounds. In the fifth
the Cubs scored three times and
piled up four more in the sixth.
Kuehne weakened in these two
innings having pitched a strenu-
ousc twelve-inning game in the
morning. Bowker, the kid pitch
err, supplanted him in the sixth
and held the Cubs down to three
more tallies. one in the eighth
and two in the ninth. In the last
of the game the locals ran in a
lone one, bringing their score up
| 6 while the visitors had in the
meantime stacked up IA. The
team fell down in that second
game. Simply a case of an off
dav for the whole works with
all the luck of baseball going in
the other direction. Blame cam
not be placed anywhere for the
defeat and after seeing the morn
ing game fans will not believe
the team was greatly outclassed.
Some unaccountable hoodoo set
tied over the whole team. When
/ support was wanted it wasn't
there and when careful playing
1 would have helped, errors were
made in abundance. Be lenient
with your mercy, gentle fan, if the
following box score is not abso.
lutelv correct. Errors, assists
hits and put outs transpired with
such rapidity in that last game
that the dope man isn't quite
sure if all we're put down. Here's

Two games, the two extremes

were treated to Sunday. In the
morning they saw the best game
ever pulled off on the home field
this season. to 1 in twelve in
nlngs-and in the afternoon they
saw the reverse, a comedy of err
rors with everything falling
Wausau's way and a final score
/ of IA to 6. Larry Kuehne was
on the mound for the locals in

that was pretty in all its details

one run which came in on an err

entire twelve innings-a game
full of snap and tense excitement
in which the home team showed
up in great form against the fast
Cubs.

nous. Had 1t not been for this
circumstance crops would have
suffered much this week from the
rains of the last three weeks. In
other parts of the state where
the soil is much heavier crops
have been under water through
out the rainy season. To the
farmer such conditions mean
much. 1t goes to prove that
in this part of the state the farm

WARDENS MAKE HAUL
Three Indians and White
Man are Arrested for Vio-
Iating Game Laws---Made
Cruesome Find.

Came Wardens Jas. Oberholt-
Grand son Henry returned Sat
urdav from the other side of the
county where they made the
capture of three indians and a
white man for violation of the
game laws last Tuesday and
Wednesday. The three Indians,
Charlie Sun, Karl Potvine and
Little Joe were each fined S25
and costs for having in their
possession green hides and ven
ison out of season. The wardens
conGscated three high power
rifles and a shotgun as we'll as
the hides from the Indians at
Nixon lake some nine miles from
Star lake in Villas county where
the capture was made. At Bal
lard lake P. Resholt of Chicago
was arrested for using set lines
and before Justice J w. Oliver at
Star Lake was fined S25 and
costs for his violation. The
hearing Of the Indians was also
aeid before Justice Oliver.
While searching the stuffv tent
of the Indians, Game Warden
Henry Oberholtzer made a grue-
some find of an Indian BOYS
hand perfectly preserved and
wrapped in leaves tied up in
paper with cords of buckskin.
The bucks and squaws gathered
about made great protest when
they saw the game warden
opening the package but declined
to explain why any such horrible
thing should be carried around
with them. Evidently the hand
was kept by them as a charm of
some sort or as the property of
the tribes medicine man who at
times worked wondrous cures
with the severed member. The
find goes to show how greatly
the Indian adheres to his tribal
custom despite the modern
civilization around him.

The Alaska daily empire., 1912-12-05

Mir. Helfner is loyal Democrat and has been constant "In season and out of season" in his work for the party. In the state Of Washington he managed Mir. Wilson's campaign for the presidential nomination, and at Baltimore he did effective work for the party's choice. He is personal friend of the president-elect, and 1t seems to The Empire that his se' lection for this important office would be in entire Keeping with the an nounced program of the Democratic party. M
 The Empire. therefore. invites the cooperation of all the Alaska news papers, irrespective of political afiil iations, in the support of Mir. Heit ner for the place It also asks the support of all Alaskans, because this is not a matter of politics, but rather a work in which all Alaskans certain ly have a common interest.
 The Empire has not consulted MT Heifner's wishes in this matter. it has not even communicated with him as to his personal views, It's course is actuated simply by an earnest de sire to see an honest, capable man SC lected from the great West for this important place.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES:
THE INs AND OUTS.

The battle for the offices has be- gun Yesterday President Taft asked the Senate to confirm over two hun dred appointments which he had made Grring the Congressional recess. And forthwith. We are told. the Demo cratic Senators are seeking mems to block the combinations. It has been ever thus. The King is dead! Long live the King! But before the King Is laid away for keeps, 1t is natural. perhaps. that he should take care of his partisans as best he may In less than three months the pres ent administration will so out. and the new one will come in but gOodly number of the same old office holders will be found at the old stand in any event But the Democratic brethren in the Senate seem determined to fght-in the trenches if need be, So as to keep as many offices for the faithful as is possible.
 Speaking by and large 1t Is diff, cult to see why anyone should object The Republicans, when coming into power. have done just wha: the Dem ocrats are trying to do now; and the Democrats when they nave been about to step aside have tried to leave as few offices as possible for the Re, pubncans to all. So why criticiss:

will be possible to survey and discuss the situation with intelligence At this time we know enough to realize that the magnitude of the victory i'm poses upon the Democratic party a great responsibility With presi- dent elected by so large a plurality and by an overwhelming majority in the electoral college. with both Sen ate and House Democratic. Che Dem ocratic party must come forward and realize the expectations that It's prom ises have excited. The magnitude of the Roosevelt contingent is also a spur to action, for the Democratic party can not turn back from it's progressive course with so large a body of progressives ready to step in and take the leadership. Our par ty has no choice but to go forward even if it were disposed to compro- mise, and 1t is not likely that any disposition to compromise will be shown.
 Governor Wilson has conducted himself so admirably during the cam paign that there is no reason to doubt lhis determination to make the most of this victory for the party by making the victory serviceable to the coun- try"
