PROSPECTS FOR
BALL TOURNAMENT
- GROW BRIGHTER
FL PaSo Would Hold Games
at Pass City; Arizona
Towns Oppose
Plan

Prospects for a post season base
ball tournament in the southwest are
Frightening. According to Hugh Du-
gan, who has returned to the city
from east Texas. coming by way Of
FL Paso, he saw Harry Kane, he OF
horseshoe fame, In that city and the
former Douglas Cactus league star
is working up a star team for a fall
tournament there. The leaguers from
the east and middle states are begin
ming to run over the range TO the
southwest to spend the winter and
there will be enough to fill in for the
old Cactus league towns OF the south
west.
While Bisbee. Douglas and Tucson
are taiKing OF one tournament. how
ever FL Paso is talking of another.
FL Paso plans 10 have all of the
doings in that city and this is not
the Arizona plan at all. Should Fl
Paso not come into the proposed Arr
zona tournament, there will be enough
teams in Arizona, including the Can
anea team, to organize a tournament
of its own.
The services of Blaine Thomas. who
played with the Boston Americans the
first OF this season and the latter
part Of the last season, are at Bisbee's
command IL they are desired. Thomas
twirled for Cananea two seasons in
the life of the old Cactus league and
afterwards was signed by the Boston
Americans. Thomas, 1t was said by
baseball writer's of the east. was sec
ond only to Walter Johnson of the
Washington team, in speed, but his
defect was his inability TO control his
balls. The management OF the Bos-
ton Americans thought so much Of
his marvellous speed that they re-
tanned him until the present season
in the hope of eradicating the defect
but the speedy pace OF rival clubs
made II necessary for the Boston
ians TO fight with what weapons they
had and let the youngsters out, so
Thomas was released.
Thomas is now at Clearwater, Cal.
recuperating from an attack of malar-
ial fever and wants to come TO this
altitude to rid his system Of the eff
fects of the fever He has so written
Hugh Dugan, his old team mate here.
Il have caught Thomas and he was
a speed marvel" said Dugan yester-
day. He was a little wild but at
that his advantage in speed partly
overcame the defect of wildness."
Dugan is keen for the organization
of a tournament of teams in the
southwest while FL Paso will get
the cream of the players from the
leagues OF the eastern and middle
states, including the Texas league,
towns in Arizona could get players
from the Pacific coast league. These
players consider money earned in post
season games so much money picked
up and | believe that all the players
that are needed could be obtained for
their railroad fare here and seventy
five or hundred dollars a month"

struck out but twice. The Californian
made this record and in the following
year failed only four times to find the

fielding exploits were what brought

main OF brilliant individual players,

strong eontenders for the flag. Under
poor management and worse discipline
it had sunk to point where rs only

GET READY FOR
The COUNTY FAIR

The officers of the Bear Lake
Fair association are busy getting
everything in shape for the annual
fair to be held in Paris on Sept. II,
Is, 10, and 90. Liberal premiums
are offered in every department.
The officers and directors are doing
their part, but if the fair il to be a
success, the people of the county
must cooperate with them. No
matter how large premiums the Of
6cers of fair may offer, it cannot
be success unless the citizens Of
the county in which it rs held, place
the products of their farms and
homes on exhibition.
The county fairs all over the
United States play an important
part in the development of agricul.
ture and stock raising and the die
serninatlon of knowledge. The
county fair has come to be a place
where the farmers gather once a
year for the purpose of exchanging
ideas or all lines of farm work and
stock raising. They have really
come to be community schools oil

the professors of the University Of
Idaho to be in attendance at the
fair and lecture to the farmers aud
do all the live stock Judging. They
will not only place the blue ribbons

tell you why.
The free attractions will be bet
ter this year than ever, aud some of
the little details which are neoes-
sary for the success of fair will
be looked after more carefully this
year than they have been in the
past
The citizens of the county should
arrange To lay aside their work az
far as possible during the week be-
ginning with Sept 16 and attend
the fair. Let each one believe that
the success of the fair depends upon
him, and then get busy.

DROWNED WHILE /
kFBUCK HUNTING

The opening of the duck season in
Bear Lake brought one fatality in its
wake. when w. Il Cunningham lost
his life on Thomas Fork, while hunt
ing. The particulars as near Sas the
Examiner could learn them were as
follows: Mr.. Cunningham, inNcon-
pany with w A. Bartlett, VIVA,
Spiers w. f Chrisman, of this city,
went over to Thomas for duck
hunt. Cunningham and Bartlett
were hunting together. when the lat
ter killed II duck, and it fell in a
slough near the creek. Cunningham
proposed to wade in and get the
game, but Bartlett protested and told
him to wait till the other boys came,
as they had dog. But the unfortn-
nate man disregarded this warning,
, and proceeded to wade out into the
slough. By this time rartlatt was
one hundreds of feet from where
he man went in. The first intina-
ion Mr.. Bartlett that anything was
wrong was when he heard Cunning
am call for help Rushing TO the
bank of the slough Bartlett was only
able to see the drowning mans hat
on top of the water. AS fast as he
could, he waded out into the water
he could sec no trace of the missing
man, rs he evidently never came TO
the surface after going down. A
closer examination showed the bot.
tom of the slough to be quagmire
of oft mad, and tulles, and the sup
position is that Gunningham's feet
became entangled in these prevent
ing his from rising to the surface so
Bartlett could see where he was and
lend him aid in getting out. Hastily
the other hunters were summoned,
and an effort made to Recover the
body, but this found impossible with
out n raft. The farmers living close
by were notified, and it was late in
the night before the body was finally
recovered.
Those with him were heartbroken
over the unfortunate accident, and
particularly Mr.. Bartlett, who did
everything in his power to lend the
drowned man assistance. The slough
WAS surrounded by tulles and it was
impossible for him to see or locate
the spot where the Cunningham went
down, but as it was he waded into
| the water to his shoulders in an en-
deavor to be of help.
The deceased. lived at Raymond but
bad only been there short time,
having come from some point In
Utah. He Was unmarried and about
80 years of age The funeral was
lheld at Raymond on Tuesday

Shortly after 10 O'Clock the Fed
Grafton adjourned sine die, and af-
ter luncheon the delegates were
taken on an auto trip to the Hot
Springs After a plunge in the
pool, an inspectlen Of the magniti
cient hotel and view of beautiful
Bear Lake, the antos returned to
the city in time for the delegates to
leave for their respective homes on
No. II.
That the delegates heartily appr :
ciated their visit to Montpelier aud
the hospitality accorded them while
here, was evidenced by the many
expressions from the delegates. In
fact the entertainment provided
surpassed the expectations of all,
while the beauties of the springs
and lake were sung in terms of
warmest praise. Several of the
ladies were heard to say, "we are
sure coming to Bear Lake for an
outing next summer"
To the ladies of the Gem of the
Mountain Club, and especially to
the entertainment committee, is due
unlimited praise for the royal enter
tainment provided. While they
labored bard TO make the meeting
success, they are not unmindful of
the assistance rendered by the busl-
ness men. for which they desire the
Examiner to extend their hearty
thanks. To Mr.. and Mrs Down
ing for the excellent banquet pre-
pared, to the musicians of the CITY
for their services and to the owners
of the antomb biles for the free use
of their cars, the Gem of the

sented against those two senator's.
In the fight in the last congress
over the Interstate commerce law he
was largely instrumental in getting
that bill into acceptable shape, and
including the long and short haul
clause that is now operating to the
benefit of the entire intermountain
country.
Al the recent session, Senator
Borah secured the passage of the
new industrial commission bill
through the senate in eight minutes,
and thereby established legislative
record that may never be equaled.
This achievement brought the sena-
tor much notoriety, for the senate
is usually prone to discuss such
matters for weeks. The house later
passed this bill and it became law.
Senator Borah's legislative record
liz a long one, but the more import
ant of his bills which have become
laws in the past two or three years
are given in the following list:
An act providing for twenty mil
lion dollars to complete tho recla-
nation projects of the west.
An act bringing the state of
Idaho under the enlarged homestead
law from which it had been exclud-
ed.
An act shortening the homestead
period from five to three years.
An act providing for the issuance
of patent to homesteaders and de.
sert lands entryman on reclamation
projects at the end of the homestead
residence period.
An amendment leaving it to the
homesteader to determine for him.
self whether he will prove up under
the old or new law regardless of
notice and election.
An act extending the eight-hour
law to all government contracts.
An act creating an industrial
to report on legislation
with reference to the adjustment of
the differences between labor and
capital.
An act to establish in the depart
ment of commerce and labor, a bu.
reau to be known as the children's
bureau.
A resolution providing fer the in.
of labor conditions IN
the steel industry-thls resulted in
one Of the most important reports
which has ever ueen made to con-
gress on this subject.
A joint resolution proposing an
TO the constitution
that senators shall be elec-
ted by the people of the several
states.

Cummins and Bailey, ajoint resolu-
tion providing for an amendment to

many of them hard-fought and
achieved only with the greatest diff

So successful has Senator Borah
been with his bills of late that il is
a matter of comment among sena

And this was praise, indeed, for tn at

biggest and most influential men of
the past generation.
From the western viewpoint, Sem

WAS the passage this past session of
