Reds and Cubs Hold
Confab With Fultz

NEW YORK, July 11.-President
David Fultz, of the Baseball Players
fraternity, held a confab with prac-
tically all the members of the Gin
cinnau Reds and the Chicago Cubs
yesterday. 1t appears that F'ultz has
been holding these conferences with
all the Western teams of the major
leagues as they have visited this city
in turn. He has been collecting the
annual dues, in addition to laying
plans for the future.
The Reds and Cubs at yesterdays
meeting were informed that the fra
ternity would soon be asked to take
firm stand on the question of re-
duction of salaries of players sent
from the major to the minor leagues
II was pointed out that the case Of
Borton, released by the New York
Americans to the Jersey City club,
was typical Of the sO-called abuse
Fultz declared, it is said, that the
fraternity should demand legislation
from organized baseball that would
make it impossible to cut a players
salary in midseason. He argued that
If d minor league club refused to pay
major league salary. the club re-
leasing a player to a smaller league
be forced to make up the difference
for the balance of the playing season.

NEARLY DOUBLED TRACKED.
Hartman System Making Ready for
Heavy Increase of Business.

Omaha, Neb., May 10.-The forth
coming annual report of the Union
Pacific railroad will show that with
the completion of stretch of track
thirty-nine miles long, to be complet-
ed August l, TIA miles of that COM
pany's line from Council Bluffs to Og-
den will be double track, according to
an official statement given out at the
company's offices today.
The last fourteen miles, completing
the double track across Nebraska, 426
miles, was completed yesterday and
is now in operation.
Nelson H. Loomis, general counsel
of the company, left for New York last
night to again take up the details of
the dissolution Of the Union Pacific
and Southern Pacific, which have been
laid before Attorney General McRey-
nolds. The plan for segregating the
two systems Is being put in shape to
present to the United States circuit

Before leaving for the east Mr..
Loomis stated that the attorney gen
neral had suggested that three instead
of two systems might be formed from

Twin FALLS WINS
FROM AMER. FALLS
High School Takes Game by
Score Of 7 to O.
TWIN FALLS IS NOW CHAMPION
OF EASTERN IDAHO.
The Game This Afternoon with Boise
VIII Determine the Championship
of Southern Idaho,

The game between American Falls
high school and the local high school
team last Saturday, was by far the
best game of the season. BY winning
this game Twin Falls won the cham
pionship of eastern Idaho, which
opens the way for them to play Boise
for the state championship on Fri
day, May 16, on the home, grounds.
The local team showed marked de-
velopment and although American
Falls surpassed any other team they
have played this year, they showed
themselves equal to the occasion. The
game opened with Linville In the box
The first three men were easily his
victims. The visiting team also
seemed to be perfectly at home upon
the field. With Oliver, of whom the
local team had heard great deal, in
the box, the first three Twin Falls
men were easy victims to the visit
ors. 1t was decidedly uncertain for
long time who would win. During
the first five innings not score was
made on either side. Then in the last
half OF the sixth Twin Falls boys got
down to business and succeeded in
rafting Oliver and making four
scores. During the seventh they made
three more. During the entire game
there were only three hits made of
Linville and he struck out fourteen
men and 1t will be remembered that
this is his first season in baseball
which Is wonderful showing for &
beginner.
The high school is very enthusiastic
as well as optimistic over the game
with Boise which will be held Friday
49,. Boise has held the state cham.
pionship in baseball for two years in
succession. Twin Falls has never
held that honor In her history, but
stands splendid chance of winning
1t this year. Boise holds the state
championship in football and Twin
Falls in girls basketball, so that Fri
days game which is the last inter-
scholastic game of the season, will
determine which of the two high
schools ranks highest in state events
this year.

R. R. FOR IDAHO FALLS.
Railway DOpesters Are Building
Lines In Eastern Idaho.

A press dispatch from Idaho Falls
says-Idaho Falls is sharing In the
railroad agitation, and the latest in
formation is to the effect that the Hill
interests will build direct from Boze-
man, Mont, to Yellowstone park,
down the valley of the Snake river,
through st. Anthony to Idaho Falls,
which is to be made division point.
The road is to continue south from
Idaho Falls to Wells, New, to con-
meet with the Western Pacific at
Wells. The Western Pacific Is the
most direct route from Ogden to the
coast. The construction of this road
would bring Idaho Falls and all OF
this territory within 800 miles of San
Francisco and Oakland.
The proposed road runs west from
Idaho Falls direct to HALEY, Idaho
and from that point south through
the Twin Falls country, direct to the
Western Pacific connection. The pro-
posed road would traverse the richest
sections of the state. The mysteri-
ous Gilmore & Pittsburg, which il
now operating from Armsted, Mont.
to Salmon City, Idaho, 10 said to be an
important link In the proposed rail-
road activity for southern Idaho.

UNIQUE SCHOOL PARADE.
High School Glasses Vie for HOnOrs
In Parade Saturday.

Prior to the state field and track
meet last Saturday the four classes OF
the high school gave parade which
called forth much comment for the
amount of work and care given to ev-
cry feature. The four classes with
the Freshmen leading and the Seniors
bringing up the rear were each cos
tuned, on foot and in beautifully dec
GRATED floats, to represent the different
childish fables and scenes. The
judges, five business men, had con-
siderable difficulty In deciding which
class was entitled to the honors for
the most spectacular and unique
makeup and the prize was awarded
the Seniors with their circus stunt by
bare majority OF one, with the
Freshies second with their Mother
Goose Characterization.

URGED TO JOIN MOVEMENT.
Mass Meeting Results in United Ef-
fort to Get State Highway Routed

SHOOTING SCRAPE.
Takes Place Near Bliss, Ida, Over
Disputed Range.

Last Saturday evening just at sun
down, Joe Aldecoa and Roland Little
had some differences to settle in
which Aldecoa made a gun play and
shot Little through the left arm, the
bullet passing through his clothing
and brushing his breast After being
shot, Little rode to the home Of his
father on Glover creek, a distance of
over three miles. He told of the
shooting and his relatives came direct
to Bliss and 'phoned for a doctor to
come and dress the wounded mans
arm. They also sent word to Sheriff
Bliss who drove to the scene at once
ana arrested Aldecoa and took him
to Gooding where he waived examina-
tion and Is now out on bonds.
This affair took place twenty miles

RICH ORE AT CONTACT.
Ore Shipped from That Camp Worth
Over 500 Per Ton.

Blaine A. Hanks, interested eXten-
slvely in mining operations at or near
Contact, arrived from that place one
day the fore part of the week. Mr.
Hanks reports that a very optimistic
spirit prevails in the copper camp, and
that the future is very promising. AT
the present time the Delano is stead
lily shipping ore. A few days ago a
forty-ton car was shipped from Rog-
erson to the Salt Lake smelters, the
ore being valued at over one hundred
dollars per ton, and after paying all
mining, transportation and smelter
charges the operators will realize big
profits on the shipment.
The Delano people have been stead
lily shipping for some time and, while
running adrift distance of ninety
feet, have taken out and shipped ore
that has netted them over $1,000. This
ore was taken entirely from the drift
proper, the terms under which the
operators have been working allow
ing them to take out and ship only
the ore from the drift, forbidding all
stopping and prosecuting
Mr.. Hanks also reports that cou-
pie of weeks ago carload of stakes,
such as are used by surveyors in
marking their lines, was unloaded at
Rogerson, the southern terminus of
the present Oregon Short Line rail-
road. The party or parties to whom
these stakes were consigned is un-
known and there Is considerable mys-
terry as to their identity. 1t is not
believed that they were for the o. S
L., and there is considerable specula-
h0 firpc n
that the stakes arrived at Rogerson
a surveying party was completely
equipped at Twin Falls and left that
city without making any statement OF
their mission. The arrival of the
stakes at Rogerson and the outfittine
OF survey corps at Twin Falls have
been connected by the people, many
of whom believe the party is com.
posed of representatives OF the Hill
lines Of railways.-Wells State Her.

BORAh STANDS ALONE.
He Thinks 1t Is Useless to Call a Con.
ventiOn. Wants Direct Primaries.

Chicago, May 12.-Progressive Re.
publican leaders from ten states are
expected to draft plans today for the
reorganization OF the party, and will
decide whether a convention shall be
held soon. The attitude to be taken
toward the national committee, what
will best rally and unite forces, and
other questions were discussed infor-
ally at two meetings yesterday.
statesmen who represent the Pro-
gressive wing of the party were rein
forced by the arrival of Former Gov
ernor Hadley of Missouri, while Sen
ator Works of California telegraphed
that he hoped to reach the city in
time to attend the convention. Other
politicians swelled the attendance to
more than fifty.
Senator BOrah of Idaho, Is opposed
to calling Republican national con-
ference, and his stand on this Ques-
tion yesterday was the beginning of q
lengthy discussion. He had asserted
it would be useless to attempt to re-
organize the party from the top down,
as any meeting which might be held
at this time would be controlled by the
same men who dominated the con-
vention last June.
Borah has fought the general con-
ference idea continuously since his
arrival, and continued to do so today
but Is without much hope that his
ideas will prevail. He was the cen
ter of discussion for the second time
yesterday, when he advanced a plan
for direct election of delegates to the
national convention, standing practic-
ally alone on this issue. Hostility to
the present national committee has
been openly expressed by several
Progressives. One of the aims of the
conference is to curtail the powers OF
the committee.
