one of the greatest ever played on
any old diamond.
And Portland and Sacramento fans
will assure you there never was so
marvellous a contest played in all his
tory. Sacramento and Portland fans
are enthusiastic. When they are
''for" anything the sky is the limit.
In Sacramento they hail John Fftz-
gerald as the hero of the game, for
John outpitched Elmer Koestner, star
finger of the Pacific Coast League.
"John," The Sacramento folks say,
"made history that day by holding
the Portland flag winners to 10 hits
in the ~ innings" Fitzgerald was
real wizard from the fifth inning to
the 18th. In these 10 sessions not
hit was made by Portland.
For the first six innings the game
went along like regular ball game.
Portland scored a run in the fourth
when Buddy Ryan (late of the Naps)
was passed, reached second on an in
field out and scored on Tommy Shee-
hans two-base contribution.
This was tied in the sixth by Sac
ramento when Patsy O'Rourke, hav-
ing singled, scored on Danzig's long
two-base hit.
Although many opportunities were
offered thereafter, there was no more
scoring by either team.
In the 10th, with one man out and
the bases filled Danzig hit an infeld
fly that resulted in double play. In
the oath inning after almost four
hours Of play Portland threatened,
but ran out of gas.
There was one out and Lindsay
was on third and Ryan on second
when Tommy Sheehan hit a terrific
line drive over short, but Lerchen
speared the ball with one hand, after
remarkable leap, and doubled Ryan
off second.

The river press., 1914-11-11

voters of Chouteau county and other
parts of Montana appear to have exer-
cised good judgment in marking their
ballots. The effect of some of the ini-
tiative propositions was subject of
uncertainty, and the prudent course
was to turn them down until more
definite understanding can be reached.
The woman suffrage amendment, ac-
cording to the best information avail
able, received the endorsement of
majority of Montana voters, who be-
lieve sex should not be an obstacle to
the enjoyment of the privileges of citi.
zenship by persons who discharge its
responsibilities.
In the recent election, the voters fol-
lowed the custom that generally pre-
vailed in former contests in regard to
their local affairs. The personality of
the candidates and other matters ap-
pear to have had more influence with
the voters than the policy of the poll
tical party with which the candidate
was affiliated.

Graft In Parcel Post

Los Angeles, Nov. 7.-Carriers on
rural mail routes who are paid more
for handling freight than the govern
ment charges under its parcel post
rates have been employing nethical
methods to enrich themselves at the
expense of Uncle Sam, according to
postal inspectors here.
One carrier on a route contiguous
to Los Angeles, who gets 50 per LOO
pounds for deliveries, has been haul
ing back and forth ton of brick done
up in 50.pound packages, on each of
which the parcel rate is ST cents. the
carriers net profits on each parcel.
therefore, has been $1.46 and, so far
as government agents can ascertain
the carrier cannot be brought to hook
under any law.
Other carriers, Inspector G. S. Ran
ger said. were going into the grocery
business, particularly in mountain
country, where the carriers get q
higher rate of transportation than the
government charges. They are thus
enabled to undersell grocers who are
not rural route carriers.

Limits Human Vision.

When people read that armies are
engaging each other at 1000 yards
distance they are apt to imagine that
the combatants can see each other;
but, as matter of fact, they cannot.
At that distance it is impossible to dis
tinguish between a man and a horse.
and even at 1900 yards, especially
where there is any dust, it requires
the best kind of eyes to tell infantry
from cavalry.
At 900 yards the movements become
clearer, although it is not until they
get within $50 yards of each other
that the heads of the columns can be
made out with anything like certain
ty.
Infantry can be seen in the sun
light much more easily than cavalry
or artillery, because less dust is rails
ed. Besides, infantry is distinguished
by the glitter of the muskets. At p
900 yards, however, everything is un-

Montana Quarantine Regulations.

Helena, Nov. Montana has quar-.
antined against livestock from every
state in the Union and from the Do
minion of Canada, with the object of
preventing the entry into the state
of the foot and mouth disease. This
action was taken today at joint
meeting of the state sanitary board
and the executive committees of the
state boards of livestock commission
ers and sheep commissioners. The
order goes into effect Immediately.
State Veterinarian w. J. Butler. in
commenting on the action of the sani-
tary board, said:
foot and mouth disease anywhere in
Montana. This Office held up three
cars of cattle at Glendive that were
infected and belonged to an inter-
state shipment. The cattle are held
in the railroad yards under guard
night and day, and federal and state
veterinary inspectors are on the
ground.
"The sanitary board believes it is
much better to take energetic action
now and effectually guard the state
livestock interests by stringent regu-
lations governing the movement of
stock than to take chances Oh the dis
ease finding foothold here"
| The provisions of the quarantine
order follow:
"All shipments OF livestock of every
description from all states in the Uni
ted States and the Dominion of Cana
da are hereby prohibited from enter
ing the state of Montana.
"All stock shipments actually en-
route which cannot be diverted must
be held at the railroad destination
until inspected and released by fed
eral or state veterinarians.
1T is further ordered that no stool
shall be moved within the state o
!. Montana until loaded through stock
!, yards and into stock cars disinfectet
under the supervision of federal o.
state veterinary inspectors.

MoNTANA'S LAND HERITAGE.

One of the certain evidences of Mon
tana's prosperity is the sale of her
land by the state and in view of that
fact the following statement is impor-
tant:
According to figures compiled by
Sidney Miller, register of state lands,
and a member of one of the most
important boards of the state govern
ment, the state of Montana now owns
3,967,S 1863 acdes of land and has in the
process of selection $4,000 acres ad-
ditional, making total of 4,202 1853
acres. There has been sold by the
state total of $4,000 acres of land,
1O3,5O6.45 acres of which were dispos-
ed of during the year 1913 alone. There
is under lease at this time approx
mately 2,432,O21 acres.
New railroad construction, new
towns and countless other conditions
continually affect land values. This is
demonstrated by the fact that in 1913
an average of $1614 per acre was re-
ceived for lands sold by the state at
public auction in comparison with
$12.68 per acre received for lands sold
in previous years. State lands sold
up to the time when figures were last
compiled brought in a total of $S,500,-
900, and last years sales alone en-
hanced the funds at the disposal Of the
state land board by $1,67O,S52.
All of these funds are invested by
the state. In 1913 the interest in
come from the principal sum, which is
made up of proceeds from sales, was
$2O2,932.66, while the income from
rentals is 1921 ,633.12 and the interest
on deferred payments on land con-
tracts was $272,7O2.39, making a total
of $757,26S.17.
During 1913 the state had as high
as $5,000,0O0 on investment at one
time. These investments included
bonds of different kinds and the 9TH
er gilt-edged securities. The aggre-
gate sum, as we'll as lands, constitute
the holdings of the different education.
al funds, being about eight in number.
The school lands OF Montana alone
would make a principality in the old
world, and the income and interest
would maintain armies and navies for
offensive and defensive manipulations.
In our state it will not be devoted
to this use, but it will send into the
field of industrial and professional en-
deavor an ever increasing and CORE
spondingly better equipped army of
young men and women who will not
fight for the cause of kindly nobility,
but will enter the battle of life
equipped to conquer and put to rout
those ancient adversaries of civiliza-
tion, ignorance and illiteracy.

Precautions Against Cattle Plague.

Helena, Nov. 6.-State Veterinarian
Butler was advised by telegraph today
of the PRONUNCIATION of an order by the
federal bureau of animal industry
withdrawing from service for period
Of nine days every stock car in the
country that they may be fumigated.
The shipments now enroute, reaching
Chicago by five o'clock tonight, will be
diverted.
The stock cars will be assembled at
convenient terminals in the different
states and fumigated with five per
cent solution of carbolic acid or a
three per cent solution of creosote
compound.
The order does not fall as heavily
upon Montana as it would have two
weeks ago. Shipments of beef were
at the crest two weeks ago and practi-
cally all cattle that will be sent this
year have gone forward.
The matter of placing an embargo
upon shipments of livestock into Mon
tana from every other state in the
country will be considered at meet
ing here tomorrow of the state sani-
tary board, and the executive com
mittees of the state board of sheep
commissioners and of stock commits
siCEers. The meetings were called
following the discover. of an infected
interstate shipmen; that was caught
at Glendive aIc is held in the stock
yards there under guard of the Daw
son county sheriff. Three carloads
that originated in Chicago were infect
ed. and twenty-seven other carloads
were exposed. Some of the stock was
consigned to Washington.

ELECTION RESULTS.

One of the surprises of the recent
election is the fact that Chouteau
county went democratic in it's vote for
representatives in congress. This is
an incident in local political history
that appears to deserve passing COM
ment.
During long series of years, Chou
teau county has been considered one
of the few Montana districts that were
surely republican, this reputation being
based upon record that shows ma
jority for republican congressional
candidates at every election during
the past twenty-five years. The poll
tical history of this part of Montana
shows that in every election since
1883, the republican congressional
nominees received the support of a
majority of Chouteau county voters.
Even in 1896, when the Bryan presi-
dental electors carried the county by
small margin. the Chouteau county
vote gave majority for Goddard, the
republican candidate for congress.
In recent years, the Chouteau coun-
ty vote was largely influenced by the
candidacy of Hon. Charles N. Pray, as
the republican nominee for congress
but prior to the enrance of Mr.. Pray
into state politics there was a large
preponderance of republican senti
ment in this part of Montana. The re.
cent election, however, shows dis
tinct reversal of these conditions in
complete returns giving plurality
of over two hundred for the democrat
ic congressional candidates.
According to advices from politica
headquarters in Helena, a similar
change in public sentiment obtains il
other parts of Montana, the democrat
ic strength showing large increase
over that recorded in the election re
turns of two years ago. Various par
tisan explanations of this fact are be
ing made, but from an unbiased poin
of view it would appear that if revers
es in other parts of the country shoul'
be accepted as rebuke to the nation
al administration, the result in Mon
tana is an expression of confidenc
in Mr.. Wilson's ability to guide tn
country through the difficulties b!
which it may be beset.
In matters of state interest that ha
no relation to political controversy, tn
