Notes of the Game.

Billy Williams pitched his first
game for Willmar this year, and got
away with it in good shape until the
fifth inning, when the breaks of the
game all went against him, and the
umpire refused to give him the cor
ners. He wasn't in condition to pitch
a whole game, but will be- heard from
whole lot later on.
Buck Johnson took the slab at the
beginning of the sixth, and he had an
easy time of it for the rest of the
game. He will face that bunch next
Sunday at Cokato, and should win
with ease.
Harstead made a beautiful play in
the second inning. With two out
Lamb partially stopped a hard
grounder and with a quick scoop and
peg, Harstead nailed the runner at
first by hairs breadth.
Bob Johnson was caught off second
nicely in the seventh inning. He had
beaten out a hunt, and when McGrew
hunted and beat it out, Bob rounded
second, but with a quick throw
Schneiderhan caught him off the sack
Next Sunday the team travels to
Cokato, and from the way they talk
ed after the game here, they are 60
ing to walk all over us. But they
will have to play a much better game
than they put up last Sunday to win
rnicfok0n Mr.
Schneiderhan is going to have his
hands full.
The visitors were one of the best
lunches of fellows that have played
here as there was not a kick from
them during the game.
Umpire Fiene handled the game in
good shape and gave satisfaction to
both teams.

PLAN OF ACTION
Mediators Still Hope to Solve
Mexican Problem.

Niagara Falls, Ont, June 22.-The
mediators proposed a new course of
action which not only will prolong
the proceedings, but eventually may
work out solution of the Mexican
problem
The nature of the plan which is de-
signed to prevent the deadlock be-
tween the American and Mexican dele
gates from abruptly ending the con-
ference has been guarded more close
ly than anything which has TRANSFERRED
at the conferences.
1t became known, however, that an
other effort was being made to bring
the Constituencies into close touch
with the purposes of mediation with
out formally admitting them. The
suggestion contemplates separate con-
ferences between the American dele
gates and representatives of the Con-
stitutionalists. Justice Lamar and
Frederick w. Lehman would con-
tinue their dealings with the Huerta
delegates through the mediation board.
In this way all elements in the Mexi-
can situation would be drawn togeth.
er and there would be no necessity
for the declaration of an armistice
until some agreement was reached
and approved by the Constitutional
lists.
It was reported that the Washington
government already has extended an
invitation to General Carranza to send
his representatives to Niagara Falls,
N. Y, to confer with the American
delegates, but confirmation is lack.

r. @ ternoon by Score Of s to 4.
Old Jupiter Pluvius behaved him
self long enough last Sunday to al
low the Willmar team to wallop the
Cokato bunch by score Of s to 4.
The game was played at the local ball
park and there was a large crowd in
attendance, considering the weather
conditions. The playing field was in
fair condition and the game was
played in the fast time of one hour
and thirty minutes. 49,.
At the start it looked like walk
away for Willmar, as Bob Johnson
opened the game with nice two base
drive over third base, and scored
when McGrew beat out a bunt, the
latter going to second on the pitch
ers high throw to first. After Har-
stead and Lamb had been retired, Nc
Grew scored on Buck Johnson's single
to left center.
Again in the fourth inning the To-
calls got busy, and bunch three hits
for three more runs. After Lamb
went out, Buck Johnson and Stothard
singled in succession and Nordstrom
beat out bunt, while Buck scored
and Van and Obbie each moved up a
base. They both scored when Will
Jams was safe on Peterson's error.
This was all for Willmar, as they
seemed unable to hit with any con-
sistency after the fourth inning.
In the meantime, Billy Williams
was pitching fine ball for the locals,
and the visitors were unable to do
anything with his delivery, until the
fourth inning, when Wreisner and
Carlson singled in succession, but the
former was thrown out at home on
McGrew's good relay to Lamb, who IN
turn pegged to Nordstrom for an easy
out. The real fireworks broke out in
the fifth inning. The first man up
was an easy out, when S. Peterson
got a pass. He went to third, on
Schneiderhan's drive to center field
for two bases. Peterson scored on
Turnquist's single. Massey got life
when Bob failed to make the putout
at second for a force out. Jestus
walked and Wreisner flied to Har.
stead. Carlson walked, scoring Turn
quist, and two others counted on
Bob's bad error of an easy chance
Kiland ended the agony by making a
nice catch of H. Peterson's fly to right
field. Buck went in in the sixth and
there was nothing doing after that

ship in the Second District, Mr.. S. A.
Syverson tied Mr. Jalmar Larson for
second place. The canvassing board
proceeded to determine by lot which
of the two candidates should be elimi-

ors was procured, number of slips

Johnson drew the slips from the box

on which S. A. Syverson's name was

was thus chosen to take the second
place on the ballot, to contest with
o. S. Reigstad at the fall election.
The county canvassing board con-
sisted of Nels B. Johnson, chairman
of County Board; H. J. Ramsett, Clerk
Of Court; John Feig, County Auditor;

Close Contest for State Auditor.
The second choice principle of the
party ballots will have it's first prac-
teal application in the contest be-
tween Jake Preus, Henry Rines and
julius Block. The result between the
two first named is so close that very
likely it will require the second choice
votes cast by those voters whose first
choice was Mr.. Block, to decide who
gets the nomination. AS a matter of
fact comparatively few cared to ex-
press a second choice on their ballot.
Mr.. Block, being low man, is elimi-
mated. His voters who expressed Sec
ond choice will still have a voice in
the contest and decide it. Thus It
will be seen that the second choice
votes may be very important indeed.
In Kandiyohi county 349 voters ex-
pressed their choice for Mr.. Block,
but only 62 of them registered a sec
ond choice. OF these % were for Mr..
Preus and 80 for Mr.. Rines which
makes the final vote in this county
705 for Preus and 1882 for Rines. Sat
urday night Henry Rines conceded the
nomination of Jake Preus for State
Auditor. Preus carried the first choice
votes by 705 votes and received 229
more Of Blocks second choice votes
than did Rines, making Preus' total
majority 934 votes.
