Gentlemen, the Garden City Indoor
Baseball league. The long-dead or
ganization has risen from the tomb
and is a live proposition once again.
The men who We're interested in the
league last winter met in the rooms of
the chamber of commerce last even
ing, elected officers, chose officials
II planned a schedule. Play will be
started next week with four teams in
the field.
Don Hoon was chosen to head the
league. Don has always been an in
door baseball bug. He tried to be a
player, but was too big for inside
work and resigned to join the bleach
critics. He ought to make a good pres
ident. X. O. Scribner, last year the
best first baseman in the league and
a brilliant change pitcher, was chosen
secretary and w. G. Ferguson, secre-
tary of the chamber of was
elected treasurer.
Paul Dornblaser, the university's
representative at the conference last
evening, and Art Taylor Of the Mis-
srula Mercantile team, We're chosen as
a schedule committee. They will get
to work at once and arrange a list of
playing dates.

The president and the captains of the
four teams will constitute an eXecu-

appointed later.
The games will be played at the
university this winter and the rah-rah

it with the play on their floor. The

that it can win back the championship

dependent teams are going to be
much stronger than they We're last

TAFT ASKS MONEY
FOR ECONOMY
THINKS PRESENT BOARD INVES.
TlGA7IoN EXPENSES SHOULD
BE RETAINED.

Washington, Jan. ~S.-Congress was
asked to appropriate $3.50, 600 for con-
tinuing the investigation of the COM
mission on economy and efficiency
into the executive departments of the
government, in a special message to-
! day by President Taft. The president
points out that there is no greater
! service that can be rendered to the
country than that of continuance of
the work of the commission until
some form of organization is provided
for continuously doing this kind of
work under the executive"
The president expresses the opinion
that the technique and procedure Of
every branch and office of the govern
ment should be submitted to the same
painstaking examination as that given
those on which reports have been
made. To do this, however, President
Taft says that ample funds must be
provided, and he asks that congress
make the $250,000 appropriation by
March 4 for the incoming president.
In my opinion" says the president.
this is not a matter in which con-
gress should ssume that public money
will be unWisely spent. At a total cost
of $4,000 during the Il months COW
cred by the work of the commission
facts have beer developed and recon-
mendations have been made that, if
followed up, will result in saving mil
lions of dollars each year.
This has beer under the handicap
of uncertainty of continuation which
interfered with the making of plans
which could not be completely exc
cuted within a few months. 1t would
be very much to the advantage of the
administration if the president were
authorized to spend whatever amount
he may deem to be necessary within
the next two years, the only condition
attached being that he render an ac-
count of expenditures
Referring to the fact that it has not
been possible for the commission tc
make final detailed reports on more
than a few of the hundreds of offices
in Washington, the president says the
reports submitted will serve to illus.
trate the character of results which
may follow an extensive investigation
of office technique and procedure.
1T is further to be noted" continues
the president, that the offices which
have been reported on are those which
have been frequently under scrutiny
From what is known of the office.
outside of Washington, it is though
that it is in this field that the larges
opportunities for economy will b.
found.
LAS illustrating the relative import,
ance of service outside of Washing
ton, it is of interest to note tina tn,

postoffice Is more than that INQUIRE,

NOTES OF MULLAN

Mullan, Jan. Observation-Disclosures
McKinnis, manager of the National
property, is in the east on business
connected with the company. 1t is
the belief of many that the National
will effect a consolidation with the
Missoula and Independent companies,
which ground adjoins the National on
the north and east.
The Federal company's mill at Wal
lace was closed for several days this
week on account of the severe cold
weather which froze ice in the fumes
carrying wash water to the mills.
The Sydney property on Pine creek
is reported to be making a splendid
showing in lead and zinc ore in the
lower workings, which are at a depth
of about 200 feet from the surface.
l.. W. Gay, manager Of the property,
states that the showing of ore will
justify the erection of a mill at the
present time. The ore assays about
80 per cen lead and the same
amount in zinc.
The raise at the Snowstorm from
the No. 4 to the No. 3 level has been
completed and connections made with
the No. 3 workings. In driving the
raise several important facts We're es-
tablished, the most important of which
is the fact that the fault line which
shows in the No. 3 tunnel was not
encountered in the raise Govern
ment biologists have predicted that
this fault would cross the vein a short
distance below the No. 3 workings.
The raise from the lower workings
follows the vein and in connecting
with the Nc. 3 levels this fault was
not encountered. In the No 4 Level
the fault shows on the south side OF
the vein.

FRANK CHANCE Is SIGNED TO
MANAGE THE NEW YORK
HiGHLANDERS.
FORTY THOUSAND A YEAR
Cubs Old Leader Will Be Given $780,
600 for Three Years-Chicago Plans
to Observe "Chance Day"

Chicago, Jan. S.-The American
league brought out its heaviest bat.
talions today and captured Frank
Chance. The peerless leader was
signed to manage the New York clul
at a salary and interest which
amounts to 100000 for three years,
for which he signed-the greatest
amount ever paid a baseball player
OF his sun $4,000 is salary and the
remainder the estimated value of five
per cent of the net earnings of the
club.
Two days of negotiations between
Chance and Frank Farrell, owner of
the New York club, We're brought to
a climax this afternoon when the
principals quietly visited the office of
Ban. b. Johnson, president of the
league. There they came to their
agreement after less han an hours
conference and there the announce
ment that Chance a signed was
made.
Gentlemen, let me introduce the
new manager of the New York Amer
icans,'' said Mr.. Farrell to the report
ers, as he and Chance emerged from
the conference.
Both Farrell and Manager Chance
kept secret the actual details of their
conferences. Chance %candidly ad-
mitted that he had suffered a change
of heart since he arrived in Chicago
after his journey from the coast and
said he had been offered terms which

excluding my love for the game as q
factor, I could not decline them.
Il am not at liberty to give out the
terms, but | can say | am to get the
greatest sum ANYBODY ever got for
plotting a baseball club and I am go
ing to come as near earning it as |
can"
The terms, learned from an author
itative source. though not officially
announced, include for Chance a ON
tract to manage the club for three
years at $4,000 a year and five per
cent of the clubs net earnings for the
three seasons. The latter, it is be-
lieved, will amount to $4,000
ally, perhaps more.
Chance will assume active man
agement of the team February II,
when he will reach New York to at
tend the American league meeting,
He will arrange then the details for
the training trip. The New York
club will have its spring workout in
the Bermudas, where Farrell has en-
gagged a cricket field for the diamond
practice.
Plans for Chance Day in Chicago,
already are under way.
The New York team will make its
visit to Comiskey park in May n
its new manager then will be hon
