BIC RUSH OF APPLICANTS
FOR PENSIONS

Since the new pension bill recently
passed by congressj became. a law,
there has been general rush all
over the land OF applicants for pen.
sions under the same. The new act
went into effect on May la week
ago last Saturday, and SO great was
the rush to make application In this
city and vicinity that all the avail
able application blanks here were
soon used up and new supply was
sent for to Washington: These ltase
not yet arrived, although hurry:np
.telegrame have been fired into the
proper department OF the government.
The main reason for the haste is that
by the new s2t. all the pensions grant
led under 1t date from the date Of ap-
plicatlon-son sooner the applica.
ton is made out and filed the more the
applicant will get In case he is sue
fcessful in his application. The rates
granted by the neWlaw are much more
liberal than any past act, giving pen
sions for mere service. regardless Of
wounds received or'disease incurred
during said service: and the amount
varies according to the age OF the ,al'
plicant aua the length of his service
The notaries of this city were kept
busy UP till time the supply o.
blanks was exhausted. and will be
kept busy again, as soon as the sup
ply is replenished. The new law ad
Units many pensions who were never
rneligible before and has the effect o
increasing the rates Of many who are
already receiving pensions.

Grangeville suffered defeat at the

Witnessed by crowd of 1000 loyal
fans. Score, 3 to 0.
Sunday, June 10, proved beautiful
day, and one which will be long remem-
bered by the Grangeville baseball low
ing public.
Cottonwood's fast aggregation of
ball tossers came as per agreement, to
cross bats with the local spheroid art
lists, some journeying by auto, some by
team, and others by the hand car route,
but the fact remains they got here, and
were very much in evidence ON the To-
cal ball grounds between $3.50 and $3.50
p. m. Our military band very courte-
ously greeted the visitors by concert
on Main street between / and clock
and then marched to the diamond where
more sweet strains were heard.
Previous to the calling of the game,
the chorus of girls voices that are to
render music for the base Ball Play
to be held at the l. 0. o. F. hall the
25th of this month FOR the benefit of
the local ball club, rendered one of
their choice selections and were round
~ cheered.
Promptly at $3.50, the hour for the
game to be called the umpire stepped
out upon the diamond and made the
announcements preparatory to the call

"Play Ball followed and the contest
was on in earnest.

Says-Is a Deliberate Liar.

Grangeville, Idaho, June IT,. 1912.
Editor Idaho County Free Press; Sir:
1t has been reported to me that on Sat
urday last, in the city Of Grangeville,
a certain party told to several citizens
that 1 refused to sign a certain petition
being circulated in opposition to the
division of Idaho county. Now this
statement was made with the evident
intention of impressing other parties
and by gang Of political cut-throats
who are engaged in the arduous task of
putting up ticket for the Republican
party in the coming campaign.
Now, l denounce the said party a de-
liberate liar. Understand
