SEASON TO Be DIVIDED;
TEAMS START EVEN AGAIN

Directors of the Western Tri-State
league decided Saturday, voting by
wire, to divide the league season
into two parts the first ending this
week and the second in the week of
September 27. 1t is expected that
the FOUR club schedule, which will
be adopted from the suggestions of
four directors of the league, will be
completed some time this week.
The winner of the 11-week first
series will play the winner of the
9-week second series in post-season
series which will probably be di-
vided between the two towns in
terested. Under the new arrange
ment the four teams in the league
will start off even next week, and
three OF them, strengthened by the
disbanding of Baker and LaGrande,
will be contenders for the honor of
meeting Walla Walla the winner
apparent of the present series, in
the post-season series.

Skyrocket Still
Holds Supremacy
Among Fireworks

"HE Skyrocket, with its possibili-
ties of flight, color and varie-
gated display, still holds its
position of primacy as the
most beautiful of all fireworks. The
firing composition extends around a
hollow. conical bore for three-quar-
ters of it's length. When fred the bore
fills with heated gas, which, forcing its
way down through the narrow central
orifice, urges the rocket up through the
air. Above the firing composition is a
plaster of paris plug. through which a
fuse communicates with the head,
which contains the stars, sparks, SER
penis, crackers or gold and silver rain
to be scattered by bursting fire as soon
as the rocket has reached its highest
point
These beautiful effects, which ex-
perts call the "garniture," are largely
trade secrets. always kept inviolate by
the firms possessing them. In success
full experiments with garniture for
rockets and shells the pyrotechnist
finds his richest rewards. while failures
are often attended by unforeseen de-
struction Of property or life.
Some of the later devices in rockets
are Of SURPRISING beauty in grace Of
motion. brilliancy Of fire and variety
Of color. The new golden cloud"
rocket, for example. presents to the
eye, at the highest point Of its fiery
fight, huge and gorgeous cloud mass,
blazing brilliantly for some moments
and dropping streams Of fire rain far
below. How such an expansive and
continued display can follow upon the
fight of so small projectile Is secret
save to a few Of the higher guild Of
pyrotechnists. The larger rockets Of
this type-they cost So each-fairly fill
the upper air with fire Of dazzling
brilliancy.
Even more impressive and wonderful
is the mammoth balloon rocket"
which makes the largest aerial display
yet achieved by pyrotechnic skill. At
a height of GOO feet this rocket re-
leases simultaneously seven balloons
with variegated signal stars attached.
These float in the air for some time.
burning with changing colors of in
tense brilliancy. With these the patri-
otto citizen can burn up his money
quickly. They are sold for $12 each.
Another high novelty is the diamond
chain" rocket, which rises to a great
height and then projects a series Of
fiery chains with diamond shaped
links, which change swiftly in color
as they slowly descend and finally dis
appear in the distance amid a shower
Of colored stars and golden rain.

STORY OF INDEPENDENCE DAY
Steps Which Led Up to Adoption OF
the immortal Declaration.


the immortal Declaration.
In May, 1776, Virginia adopted those
famous instructions to her delegates
in congress "to propose to that respec-
table body to declare the united colo
MES free and independent states"
Thus encouraged, John Adams Of Mas
sachusetts the next day urged success
fully the adoption of a resolution rec
ommending all the colonies to form for
themselves independent governments.
declared that the American people
could no longer conscientiously take
oath to support any government deriv-
ing its authority from the crown.
On the It'll Of June, 1776, Richard
Henry Lee submitted a motion en-
bodying the Virginia instructions. The
motion was seconded, as a descendant
Of Patrick Henry writes, 'by glorious
old John Adams, and Massachusetts
stood side by side with Virginia"
Then, on the list of July, congress tax
ing up the resolution respecting indie
tendency once more. "all eyes were
turned on me-" says John Adams.
Rising, he led off in speech of sur
passing eloquence and "a power of
thought and expression which," said
Jefferson, "movad the members from
their seats"
He was "the colossus of that con-
gress," as Jefferson again testifies, the
"Atlas Of Independence" as Richard
Stockton declares. HE compelled con-
viction, and at last. on the I'd of July,
the fame in his own soul fused into
single molten current the aspirations
of people, and amid the glow Of no.
Bile, daring, fervent speech the reso-
lutions Of independency were unani-
mously adopted" 1t was then that
John Adams. in a letter to Abigail,
burst forth in prophetic strains of the
way the glad event would be celebrat-
ed. So it has been celebrated. but the
date of the adoption of the celebration,
July 4, is the one the people recognize
as the eliminating moment of the
great event

A Fourth Of JuIy
Poem by
HO. ID. Nesbn

DU up Old Glory!
II Let it blaze
~ In red and white against the sky
And tell the story of the days
When hearts were stout and hopes were
high.
Forget the daily fights of greed;
Forget the struggles the dismay
OF facing cruelty and need
Run up Old Glory for the day.
Run up Old Glory!
Think of all
The old flag means to you and me.
OF how the blast Of freedoms call
Shook out it's folds from sea to sea:
Red with the blood that it has cost.
White with the souls Of them that died
Today by laughing breezes tossed
1t whispers Of a nations pride.
Run up Old Glory!
Fling 1t forth
And feel anew the country cau
That thrills east west and south and
north
And has its word for one and all.
Run up Old Glory-f1tng it far
Across the blue Of heavens dome
And feel that every stripe and star
Is warder of your hearth and home.

OFFICERS STOP FISHING
IN RIVER AT PR0SSER

The first result of the visit to the
valley last week of the state fish
commissioner and chief deputy
game warden and their tour of in.
spection with Game Warden Bryant
is shown in the following dispatch
from Prosser:
THE recent visit to this city of
State Fish and Game Warden L.
H. Darwin and Superintendent
of Fisheries L. +. Mayhill has
brought dismay to the large num-
Der of Yakima Indians camped just
across the bridge spanning the Yak
ina river at this point. Subchief
Yakima Charlie visited at the
sheriff's Office yesterday afternoon
with the request that he be allowed
to catch one little fish for SUPPER
but his request was refused. Mr..
Darwin left instructions with Sheriff
Mahan that all fishing be stopped
within the legal distance from the
Pacific Power & Light Co.'s dam
and condemned the present fshway.
The company was given limited
time to construct a fishway answer
ing legal requirements.
Albert Barnhart, Indian police
man, who is a Carlisle graduate,
says that the treaty between the
United States and the Yakima
Indians provides that they shall
never be barred from their ancient
fishing grounds and that the In
dams will take all necessary steps
to protect their treaty rights. Sub
chief Yakima Charlie will prob
ably leave for Toppenish tonight to
confer with Chief Saluskin regard
ing the matter. Meanwhile 70 In
