SAY AGREEMENT
not VIOLATED

aNE45W+a
jamestown. Capital: 1t seems to be
quite evident that the Fargo basket
ball quint did not take kindly to the
defeat administered to it by James
town high school Saturday, to Judge
from q report of the game in The Far
go Forum which declares that the
game was decidedly slow and a big
farce all the way through 1t claims
that Coach Jones proceeded to call
fouls without designating them or
even blowing the whistle and seems
very dissatisfied although it admits
that the work Of the Fargo team was
very ragged. their shooting being es-
pecially weak
A return game will be played here
March 5 when ii is hoped that the
boys will be entirely pleased with
their treatment here. Jamestown has
. good team. a splendid place in
which to play and it is undoubted
no marbles will strike the visitors in
the eve neither will any chairs be
hurled after the team when decisions
do not suit them.
The report also charges Jamestown
with violating the agreement as to-
officials by using their coach as Off
cial, The final communication before
the game shows conclusively that
Jamestown complied strictly and com-
pletely with the agreement as made.
1t Is:
MI. Robinson suggested that we
take Mr.. Bird as referee with us and
that you bring but six players and
your coach with you next Saturday.
We have considered this proposition
and decided that II is a good thing
therefore ! wish that you would send
seven men. you can send your regular
coach IL you want to and we will leave
him ~officiate. We will take Mr., Bird
was us. Hugh McInnes, Student Man
ager."
This final written statement from
Fargo being I'M strict conformity with
previous negotiations was naturally
considered final but when the game
came to be played Fargo demanded
that her OFFICIAL be given sole. x

Jamestown be- allowed no official

FIVE GALLONS OF ICE CREAM AS
TIE sTAkE-soPHs LOST TO
FREsHMEN-GAME PLAYED ON
~" FLooR-FINAL SCORE IS
TO 81.

The high school freshman basketball
quint challenged the s~ophomores to a
game of basketball for FIVE gallons Of
ice cream. The sophs accepted and
the game was pulled of last night on
the "Y'' floor. The freshies made
good their roast and, after a close and
exciting game, came forth victors by
a score of 35 to q.
The lower classmen put UP a very
good exhibition of fast, snappy bas-
ketball, The shooting of both sides
was consistent as well as sensational.
Some good flashes OF team work were
also shown.
Only four or five points separated
the teams until the last few minutes
when the freshmen forged ahead and
cinched the game. The score at the
end Of the first half was IL to II. The
work of Rush and Hamilton featured
for the freshmen while Rice and
Kurtzman were easily the stars of the
sophs.

According to one of basebans kingpins, the American associa-

This is tobe the much heraded third major. and the step is contem-

been before the baseball public for several years.
St Paul, Toledo and Columbus are said to be considered the

always then. st. Paul has a crowd when the milers go over; that

DEMOCRATIC PARTY UNPA-

Editor Hearst Says That it is Not
Safe to Entrust the Interests OF
This Country to Party With
Such q Record.
New York, July 25.-William Ran
dolph Hearst, the American newspa-
per man, now in Paris, in a signed
statement to the correspondent OF
The New York Sun on American pol
tiles says: The failure Of the Dem
ocrats in Congress, in defiance OF
their party platform to provide a
navy adequate to the nations needs
utterly discredits Democratic prom
ises and Democratic patriotism. Nc
reliance can henceforth be placed
upon a party which has no regard
either for its own honor or the ma
TONS dignity and safety. Patriotic
citizens cannot be expected TO vote
for Democratic candidates who re-
pudiate the solemn pledge and de-
fault in personal and patriotic obi
cations.
1T is not wise TO entrust the pow
ers of government to a party of mar
row sectionalism, and small Ameri-
canism which has no conception as to
the nations dangers or the nations
duty. or of the nations destiny.
"It is actually not safe to repose
the fate of the greatest nation in the
world to the care of a party, which
proposes to contract our national
possessions, and which refuses either
to protest our interests abroad OF
safeguard our citizens at home.
The Democracy's reputation OF
it's platform pledges is merely squalit
dishonesty but its default in its~-pa
triotic duty to the nation is nothing
less than treason"

Stand Pat and Progressive
Republicans Put One Over
on Democrats
Cuts the Duty on Sugar Prom 81 90 TO
s1.6o-The BILL Adopted by the
Senate II n Compromise Between
the Bristow and Lodge BlIIs.

Washington, d. G.. July 2T.-A
Republican sugar tariff bill. the hrst
purely Republican revision measure
OF the present Congress. was adopted
in the Senate to-day against practi-
cally the united strength OF the Dem
ocrats. Deserving their allies OF the
last two days, the Republican Pro
gressives. by an iron-clad agreement
with the Regulars. succeeded In pass
believe President Taft will sign If Ii
reaches him.
The sugar bill was a compromise
between the Lodge plan. endorsed BY
| the regular Republicans, and the
Bristow bill, behind which the Pro-
gressives lined up. 1t would cut the
present sugar duty of $50 to $50;
would abolish the Dutch standard.
under which practically no refined su-
gar can be imported and would ahol-
ish the 1-2 cents "refiners differen-
tial," an additional duty on refined
sugar, which, 1t is claimed, has &C
crued directly to the profit of the
sugar refiners.
The Republicans played big poll
tics" in the third and last days fight
on tariff measures. The regulars
came down from the $1.S2 1-2 duty
of the Lodge bill, while the Progress
sives moved upward from the SIS
IL rate in the original Bristow bill.
The compromise, which III only IL
cents above the lowest figures named
by the Progressives, is considered a
victory for Senator Bristow, who has
been the most active advocate of SUI
gar tariff reduction on the Republi-
can side of the Senate.
| The Democratic free sugar bill
passed by the House of Representa-
| tives did not come to a vote in the
Senate. The BristowLodge amend
ment was first adopted in the commit
tee of the whole, by vote of 81 to
| %, Senator Thornton and Foster, OF
Louisiana, Democrats, voting with
the Republicans.
| The attitude of the Senate Demo
Gratis in finally supporting the Repub-
lican bill is expected to have inf1u-
ence with the Democrats of the House
when the amended bill goes back
there. The Senate probably will
name Senators Penrose and Lodge,
Republicans, and Simmons, Demo
crat, on the conference committee.
j The Senate bill would reduce the
duty on Cuban sugar which comes in
under the reciprocity treaty at $1.34
to about $1.2O hundred pounds. The
maximum reduction of duty on all re-
fined sugar is three-tenths of cent a
pound. The abolition of the Dutch
standard, it is expected, will make
possible more foreign competition in
cheap grades of sugar. The bill
would require the branding of sugars
to show their degree of purity.
| It is estimated that the sugar tariff
reduction, if it becomes effective, will
reduce Government customs receipts
about $5,500,OO0, while it's saving in
the retail sugar bill Of the Nation is
estimated at $2O,00O,0OO.
