Tacoma High Is all ready for the
opening game of the season with
Auburn Saturday. Scrimmaging
ended Wednesday,. The outlook
for the season is a rosy one. The
team Is composed of 20 men, most
of them veterans who have taken
on weight since last year.
AL Rushmer, half, had the ten
dons about his ankle bruised and
will not be used in Saturdays
game. "Ching" Johnson will
probably start in his place.
Rollin Dennis, formerly of
Whitworth, will referee. George
Case, former coach of the same
team, will umpire. The head
linesman has not yet been select
ed.
When the men weighed in last
night it was shown that they have
taken on weight enough to aver
age about 157, five pounds more
than last season.

WHERE THEY PLAY

fBy United Press Leased Wire. }
SEATTLE, Sept. 81. - Again
the Tigers got it-a whitewash
this time. Although both Hunt
and Meikle were touched for the
same number of hits, Meikle was
more effective. Tacoma started
by getting two hits with one man
out In the first inning Then the
Giants came through with a dou-
bic play. The Bengals had an
other chance in the fourth in
ming, but lost it.
The Giants scored enough to
win the game in the second in
ming with two men down. Some
hits and frequent errors in the
Fourth inning allowed the Seattle
cam to pile up three more. There
vas no more scoring.
II Seattle can win today she
has the pennant cinched. There
are only three more games to
play.

BY HUGH A. JENNINGS,

Manager of the Detroit American
| League Team.
The catching in the coming
worlds series between the Giants
and Red Sox will be Of as much
or of more importance than the
pitching.
Boston will place dependence
mainly upon Bill Carrigan, using
Cady to catch Joe Wood I'M
doubtedly. while the New York
club will use Meyers in every
game unless he Is injured. The
work of Meyers In the last series
was high class.
You will hear much talk about
the speed of the Giants base
runners this fall, just as you did
last year, and the statement win
be made that Boson's catchers
will not be able to hold them
down.
Just remember this: 1t Is
necessary for the batter to be-
come a base runner before he can
steal, and no short series was
ever won on the base lines. Also
remember, please, that Carrigan
is one of the wisest catchers in
the game today.
Cobb and Bush of the Detroit
team are reasonably fast men on
the base lines, but Carrigan has
held them this year, and il he
can do this he can hold the
Giants speeders. Carrigan hasn't
very good throwing arm, but,
despite this handicap. he keeps
runners from stealing by using
his head.
He prevents bases being stolen
by brains rather than by bullet
like throwing. He can outguess
his opponents in almost every
case. Some times his ability
seems almost uncanny.
And he Is good hitter, too,
battin gabout .2S0, and, best of
all, getting hits when they are
needed.
OF course Chief Meyers of the
Giants has been tried and found
not wanting. His work a year
ago was a bright spot in the Sc
ries. But he Is only good me-
thodical catcher, skilful ma
chine rather than fast-thinking,
brainy backstop. When Mathew
SON is pitching he will do most of
the thinking for the battery.
Meyers is a cleanup hitter, one
of those players who at any time
Is liable to slam the ball to the
fence for trip around the bases.
The Giants are faster on the
bases as a team, but they are
weaker hitters than Boston. A
glance at the printed records will
show that the Giants have scored
more runs for their hits than the
Red Sox and have stolen 100
more bases. but 1t Is also true
that the scores throughout the
season In the National league
have bee nmore one sided, in
New York's favor, than in the
American league, where big
score games are rare. So this is
really no comparison to make.
The Red Sox are notedly timely
hitters.
The Giants win find 1t difficult
to get upon the bases, to make
their speed effective, and when
they do get on they will find It
just as difficult to steal as they
did a year ago OF Thomas and
Lapp. On the other hand. the

MOI NTAINEER FEUD
FEARED IN VIRGINIA.

JONESVILLE. Va, July 25.-A
repetition of the Allen tragedy at
Hittsville is feared here, when 200
mountaineers are brought to trial on
a charge of vote selling as a direct
result of the killing last night of Dr..
James w. Walden, a leading demo-
crat, by Perry Wallin, a republican
leader. The shooting has famed to
a threatened outbreak the shoulder
ing political feud in the Blackwater
district and throughout this section
the clans are taking sides. The
temper of the mountaineers who
soon are to be brought to trial is
shown in the following telegram re-
ceived from the mountains today by
Judge Skeen:
There are SO in our party alone.
Before we submit TO going to Jail,
we will die and go straight to hell. "

TO INCREASE OUR MEAT
SUPPLY.

1t is generally conceded that the
United States is short in food pro-
ducing animals and that something
must be done, it is very evident, to
help out the meat supply. The de-
partment of Commerce and Labor
shows that goatskins imported into
the United States have ranged in
value from twenty to thirty million
dollars per annum during the past
decade, and 1t is now advised that
goats be raised In this country
These animals can be raised on land
that is not fitted for agriculture
fhe value OF the goat It is said, de-
pends on three things, the meat, the
tallow and the skins, and all OF these
can be made available In the mar
kets Of the United States Men who
are experienced claim that capital
can proftably be invested in this
business among the foothills and
narrow valleys OF all our mountain
states II certainly looks very ia
vorable and It is to be hoped that
the business will be carried on in
Southern Oregon more extensively
than II now is.

THE PROGRESSIVE PARTY RAP.
IDLY EXPANDING.

There are certain people who are
opposed to the progressive move

strength Of the party. Michigan is a
fair sample OF conditions In other
states. A dispatch from Jackson,
dated Saturday. says that delegates
from every county in that state gath
cred there to form the third party
the national progressive party. Sen
ator Dixon OF Montana conferred At
length with the state leaders He
said:
Personally l favor a third party
ticket all down the line. Why, the
things going like wlldhre, In New
York republicans. democrats and ev-
erybody is turning to Roosevelt"
The senator might have added the
northwest as well California, Ore.
gon and Washington are deeply IN
terested in the formation OF the new
political organization which promises
to revolutlonlze the country It is a
notable fact that even here in Jose

mands the attention and respect of
many Of our best citizens. Mr.. Tai,

lowing In this part OF the Rogue Riv-

Of The United States who pay a large

farmers vote this year will support
the progressive ticket in city, county
and nation. The time is short and it
may not be possible to give the pro-
gressive movement full force, but the
chances are there will be a large
vote. California, Oregon, Washing

carried by that party.
