The Standpoint Story

The Northern Idaho News gave
the following account of the game
in its paper Tuesday Our readers
may judge for themselves the
veracity of the account.
The ball game Sunday at Bon
ners Ferry ended in a row in the
seventh inning when neither side
had scored Jun. Umpire Bush
had persistently and aggravatingly
favored the home team i'll his rul-
ings and in the seventh called a
balk to second on Navarro when
there is no such thing in baseball
and advanced two Boomers Ferry
players a base each. Manager
Brewer protested and asked the
umpire to refer to his rule book
but was informed by the umpire
that he waa umpire and that the
decision would stand. Brewer
then refused to play further and
after some discussion the entire
crowd left the field, Manager
Brewer being one of the last to
leave, however. The umpire gave
the game to Boomers Ferry, 9 to 0
but it is claimed that he did not
conform to the rules and had no
authority under the circumstances
to do so.
The report that the police were
necessary to quell riot started by
the Standpoint team is Indignantly
secuted by the players and there is
much feeling over the matter.

DRINACE PLANS UNDER Way
Commissioners Of DFaiaass District No

Commissioners Hawkins and
Elliott of Drainage District No. s
returned Monday evening from
Spokane where they spent the
day in consultation with the en-
glneer of the district in regard to
drainage plans. The plans of the
engineer were approved and the
commissioners believe that they
will be able to carry out their
drainage plans at very nominal
cost. The present plans call for
the dyking of the Kootenai river to
a height 80 feet above the low
water level.
Preliminary work of the drain
age OF the district has been COM
menced and contract for the
clearing of the slough from which
seepage will be drained has been

therefore issued ON Aug. 20, 1911;
that the land is all in cultivation
and In crop this year aud that the
owner objects to the assessment of
the land on account of his entry

OF an action on the report by a
special agent.
Quoting from a recent decision
of our supreme court in the case of
Boutwell, versus Bingham county
involving the taxation of Carey
act lands after final proof and be-
tore issuance of patent:
The rule which has been
generally recognized by the courts
with reference to the taxation of
lands for which patent had not vet
issued is, that when payment in
full has been made and the proper
authorities of the interior depart
ment had accepted the proof and
issued final receipt to that effect
raoperates to render such an equit-
able estate in the lands as to i'm
mediately render the land liable to
taxation although the legal title is
still held by the United States.
The fact that the government
might, prior to passing of title
from the state to the settler, re-
woke its patent to the state or in
stitute proceedings for its cancella-
ton can make no difference with
the question before us. The
government may--and frequently
does cause the cancellation of
patents to homesteads and timber
claims but the fact that these
things sometimes happen does not
affect the right of tho state to tax
The land as soon as the title passes Il
You are advised that this land |
should be assessed for taxation this
year"

REFUSED TO
PLAY GAME OUT
Standpoint Tigers Cutters In Seventh
Inning of Sundays Game
Bonners Ferry Won
SCORE DECLARED TO BE 9 TO 0


The baseball fans of Boomers
Ferry experienced the sweetness Of
revenge last Sunday afternoon
when they won from the Sand
point Tigers by score of 9 to O.
Up until the sixth inning the
game was as pretty a one as one
could hope to see. 1t was a
pitchers battle between Navarro
for the Tigers and Beaver for the
locals. Navarro was plainly out
classed and the Tigers played an
uphill game. Neither team was
able to score and Standpoint was
not even able to get runner past
second base. At this time Beaver
had struckout seven men and
Navarro had struck out four.
The climax came in the first half
of the seventh inning. With De
Wolf out, Peterson on third base
and Ryan on first base, Navarro
made balk. Without hesitation
Umpire Bush called the balk and
advanced Ryan to second base.
Then the Tigers quit the game.
From reports of the game it
seemed that Navarro claimed that
he stumbled. Other Standpoint
players claimed that pitcher
could not make a balk to second
base. The rule book makes no
exception to second base when
balk is made and from the plain
definition of balk given, Umpire
Bush was right. At any rate
Bush stood his ground.
Those who saw the game judged
the action of the Standpoint ball
players as the most unsportsman-
like of any that has ever occurred
on the local diamond. 1t appeared
TO have been premeditated and the
local fans say that the play was
deliberately made with the idea of
pulling out of the game.
Had the Tigers have quit at any
other time than when the locals
had two men on bases, only one
out, and the strongest hitters of
the team coming up to bat the act
would have been passed by more
lightly. AT any rate the play dis
gusted every person who saw the
game and the visitors were hooted
derisively and roasted unmerci-
fully.
Even had Umpire Bush been in
the wrong the act of the visiting
team in quitting the game has and |
will put it i'll ridiculous light
with all towns of the Panhandle.
No other team that has played in
Bonners Ferry has ever complained
of the decisions of Umpire Bush
and he has earned the reputation
of being an umpire who is on the
square and knows baseball and if
favoritism is shown it is for the
the visiting team.
The local nine gave Beaver adj
support and made but one
error in the whole game. Sand
point failed to support Navarro
and made six errors, four of which
are credited to Jones at second
base.
Umpire Bush had the following
to say in regard to the disputed
game of Sunday: Navarro. the
pitcher for the Standpoint team.

After making the play he tried to
get back in his box to cover it I'D.
