insult.
Only the other day, gang of |. w.
w men literally besprinkeled with
Socialists, marched to number of
the lumber mills in Hoquiam, Wash
ington, and induced the employees to
strike. The men had no grievances,
they were at peace with their wage
scale, and were supporting their fam
lilies and satisfied. The mills had but
recently resumed operations, and
their employees were anxious to get
in every days employment possible,
following a winter of idleness. Yet
this horde of loafers, and men who
earn whatever living they get, often
by questionable methods, and who
prate about the rights of the labor
ers," invaded private property and
induced a large number of weak
minded workmen to throw up the
jobs they needed so badly. A COM
pany of military handy when that
invasion began, would have been
godsend to those laborers and would
have assisted in keeping the bread
in the mouths of the dependent fam
lilies who must now face more pri-
vations, at the behest of collection
of renegades and rufiians whose one
and only ambition appears to be to
make trouble and engender strife. Is
1t any wonder that such as they OBJ
ject to the military?
And men of such character prate
about the plastic minds of the little
Faugh. Give us more military and |

mics to society will cease to be.

appearing regularly at the court
room at Mineola, l.. L., the former
president was excused by the Court,
who said that he believed that Roose-

any case would exert such a disduiet-
ing effect on the other jurors that
their attention would be drawn from

that, in the event that T. r. voted to

their season Saturday night in Port-

is 32.9 to 1873.
The greatest score was made
against McMinnvlle and the smallest
in the game with Washington uni

only contest of the entire season
where there was any question of the
outcome and in that battle the Dallas
quintet had to work for every point

Season Not Success.


From the standpoint of games won,
the season was a success, of course,
but the financial side of it presents
different aspect While the season
closed with no deficit in the treasury.
there was no surplus, either, the club
simply breaking even on the seasons
work. This condition is attributable
to the poor attendance at home, but
at the same time the management
has no complaint to make over the
support given the team here. 1t is
realized that the weaker teams do
not draw crowds and it was found
impossible to secure the strong teams.
At the beginning of the season, games
were arranged with the o. A. c.. Uni
versity of Oregon and Washington
College and it was expected that
these games would result in much
larger attendance. But, for one
cause or another. the games were
leaving only the Washing
ton university men who stood BY
their word. Generally, the compet-
ing teams from the big schools and
found some technicality
which permitted them to evade the
terms of their agreement with the
local team. The Dallas team was too
strong for the smaller towns. and in
terest in in the games. therefore.
We're nil. except when Washington
Vancouver and Multnomah played
here.
"Pecbo" Shaw Has Record.

Dallas, has the best individual record /

Professor +. f. Hansen, of South
Dakota. has set out several acres oil
alfalfa plants with machines such as
are used for setting tobacco, cabbage
and other plants. This way of getting
a stand of alfalfa may not be the
easiest, but it is interesting. Professor
Summis. of Wisconsin. has invented a
buttermilk cheese that promises to re-
turn the buttermaker dollar per lGl
pounds for his byproduct. No doub:
it will be valuable to the dairyman i
the public can be induced to use IT,
but memories of skim cheese do not
lead us to expect it to become ex-
tremely fashionable New things are
being brought forth every day to be
tested on the farm and on the market.
