Ten Innings Necessary to Decide Bat
tie With Selah

After playing ten innings of base
ball the Mckee team defeated the
Selah team, on the Selah grounds Sun
day afternoon by the close score of
8 to Z. The game was close at all
times. with the lead ever changed
from one to the other. Pitchers for
both teams We're very effective, but
the numerous errors and over throws
causing most of the runs. ONeil for
Selah led in this respect, having
four errors and one over throw to
his credit, all of which proved very
costly to Selah. The game was mark
ed by sensational feelings on both
sides. Many of the umpire's decisions
were questioned and excitement was
intense. In the ninth inning with the
score 6, Mckee came to bat deter
mined to win or walk home. AT the
end of their bat the score was 8 to
6. but Selah threw an awful scare into
the visitors, when with one down they
scored one run at the same time
placing a man on second, but the next
man up was an easy out via the first
base route and the last man could on
lily fan the breezes.

BALTIMORE, Md. June 24.--The
whole democratic situation has re-
NAMED practically unchanged today
regardless of the short time still to
elapse before the convention as
Isembles, and it is freely admitted that
the pause was entirely in anticipation
of the arrival of William Jennings
Bryan. who reached. Baltimore last
|evening from Chicago. None of the
various managers has shown ten
dency to make move until they
know what course the Nebraskan is
to travel. Indeed, it is remarked on
every hand that the Bryan advent into
Baltimore means as much as Rooose-
velt's advent into Chicago. Opinions
differ as to whether it will have the
same result.

GREATLY ENLARGED CROP
IS CERTAIN THIS YEAR
As Columbia River Valley Which
Has Never Before Figured as a
Shipper Will Have Thirty
thousand Tons to Market

yakima valley people will need to
feed more Of their hay instead of
shipping 1t if they are to make a profit
from it," said w. w. Robinson Of
Seattle, who Is probably the most ex-
tensive in his operations of the buyers
who deal in the hay of this valley.
Mr.. Robinson was in the city from a
trip through the lower valley and had
been making a study of the condi-
lions.
There are over 10000 tons of last
seasons cut remaining unsold in this
valley right now and there is a GER
tainty of a much greater production
the coming year. George Donald, one
of your citizens, is alone holding over
1900 tons Of last seasons cut.
Big Extra Production
There will be produced 1000 or
5000 tons more on the reservation
this season than ever before Under
the Tieton the aggregate will be many
hundreds of tons of new production
and the Columbia river. country,
which has never hitherto figured as a
shipper. will come in with 10000
tons or more. You see 1t is easy to
figure up a total in new crop and
hold over in excess Of the production
Of any previous year a great many
thousand tons. The country is not
consuming it.
California Sells Quicker
There is another fact and that is
that the California hay sells at a
higher price and is more eagerly
sought after because the growers
harvest 1t in better shape. The Yak
ina valley grower will not cut soon
enough and the result is a crop which
the animals waste to a large extent
taking only that part which seems
sweet and tender to them. I realize
that it Is difficult to get cattle, but
there are other ways of feeding, and
1t Is up to the ranchers of this valley
to figure out methods Of getting the
most from their alfalfa crops other
than by shipping the hay.
Not Much Damage
1.-The conditions this year as regards
rain are not nearly SO, bad as yet as
they were last season. There has been
some damage on the reservation and
in other parts Of the valley through
rains and bleaching but it is not
material My observation is that an
earlier harvest will escape many of
the showers which cause damage
These rains come with extreme heat
and almost always at the same time of
year. Let the growers harvest
earlier"
