BASE BALL BUG CHIRPs MERRY
LAY TO RECKONING CALL OF
SPRINGS FIRST SUNNY DAYS.
Continued from page ~

at home isn't the basic principle upon
which this new thought finds a footing.
1t IS the belief, almost universally ex-
pressed, that well-selected team of
players who reside in or near Grange
vile could, under the proper manage
ment and guidance, be shaped into a
winning organization. Ball teams which
have represented Grangeville in the
past and which have been made up of
more or less imported players have done
ing but praise due to all who have been
connected with the teams, or the
management of the teams, in years
gone by. However, if can be readily
recalled that the home boys, even in
competition with the imported phenoms,
have never fallen down so terribly or
failed in the pinches.
In the past, with costly outside play
ers on the team, we have lost and won.
1t will probably be the same when we
use a strictly local talent team.
Pitching Department Strong.
One thing is certain; Grangeville ap.
pears to be well fortified in the box
this year. With Janasco, southpaw
who halls from Minnesota and who
brings record of shutouts and vic
tories as long as his arm, and Ingram,
who like wine improves with age, we
should not shed isch-ga- bibble tears
about the twirling staff. Mr.. Janasco is
the new bookkeeper at the Grangeville
Savings & Trust Company bank. In
gram is in line for the best base ball
year Of his life and will probably alter
nate between the pitchers box and
second base. Janasco, too, handles an
infield position when he isn't hurting
strikes and balls.
For backstop there's Miller, new
player, and Floyd Manning, who was a
star catcher in his days at high school
and who according to many of the fans,
is first class material for dependable
battery mate.
Infielders we have in abundance.
Look over the list: Abrahamson whose
proficiency at first or second is well
known to local followers Of the game;
Idaho County free press. [volume] (Grangeville, Idaho Territory) 1886-current, 1914-03-12

Ingram, who can be used anywhere on
the left hand side Of the diamond when
ne isn't pitching; Homer Mcdonald,
one of the home boys who has develop
ed rapidly the past few years and who
is ready to shine in fast company; Ed.
gar Brandon, who is coaching the high
school track team and is willing to play
almost anywhere in the infield or in the
outer gardens; both Snyder and Miller
who comprise the local harness manu-.
featuring firm of that name, are both
players who enjoy the national game
and are willing to get out and help
Grangeville win pennant.
Others who are in the same frame of
mind are Charles Branscombe, who led
the North Idaho league with the stick
last year, batting AIS; "Pap' Jarvis,
who played in the Three-l league when
that organization had only two eyes;
Henry Munro, another young fellow
who gives promise; Hub Wood, Wayne
Arnold, Geo. Bowman and number of
others who haven't been in action for
several years but who will bust gallus
tryin' to make the team this year.
Looks Like Fast Team.
Summed up, we have a rttling good
battery made up of men who can play
other positions in case of shift;
fast, sure infield with two well known
players to help develop a couple of most
promising younger players; and we can
select an outfield headed by a remark
ably sensational youngster and an sold
head" who knows the game from Pop
Arson s day to the present. Altogether
it compares very favorably with lineups
which have defended the town IS honor
on the diamond in the past and, what
is more gratifying, it s strictly home
talent bunch-one that the business
men and fans alike can support to the
limit And they will

CITY NAY MOVE
TRACKS AND SUE
Central Park West Improvements
Recommended. Though Rail-
way Objects.

Unless the New York City Railways
Company consents to relocate its tracks
in Central Park West, the city may do
the work and sue the company for the
cost. This is the suggestion of the Com
mittee on City Plan to the Board OF Este
mate
The tracks are now near the easterly
curb. and many accidents have resulted
The city wants them put west Of the
westerly tracks. The company has re-
fused TO act, as It changed the same
tracks In 1891
THE expense of the entire improve
rent of Central Park West will be shared
alr1ost equally by the city and the rail-
roa6 company" says the report. because
the city is TO bear the expense OF widen
ing the roadway. destroying one line OF
elm trees and planting another. recon-
.,ruc;ing the SIDEWALK. the pavement.
the drains and rho curb. This work Will
cost the city about ,230O." According tn
the estimates OF the citys engineers, the
railway companys expense will not ex-
coed $4,000. although the companys own
estimate is $4,000.
The committee recommends the adop-
ton by the Board of Estimate Of a reso-
luton directing the President OF the Bor-
ough OF Manhattan to 90 ahead with tho
widening OF the street and 10 take all
necessary steps to force the railway COM
pany to pay for the relocation OF tho

SENATORS BALK ON
ANTITRUST BILLS
Democrats, Reluctant to Act, Con.
slider Motion to Report Only
Trade Commission Part.
From The Tribune Bureau. I

Washington. May 27.-The reluctance
among Democratic Senators to carry out
the Presidents plan of enacting antitrust
legislation before the adjournment OF the
present session OF Congress made its ap-
pearance in the Senate Interstate Com
merce Committee to-day. Senator Sauls-
bury. member Of the subcommittee
which has the antitrust bill under con-
sideration. made motion TO report only
that portion OF the measure which pro-
vides for the creation of an interstate
trade commission and to postpone the
remainder until the next term of Con-
gress.
II is Senator Sausbury's idea that dur
ing the summer recess the proposed trade
commission can garner information con-
corning interlocking directories, hold
inC companies and capitalization which
will aid the Senate committee in formu-
sumes its task after the Congressional
campaign.
The committee did not act upon the
Salisbury motion to-day The members
are expected TO seek information from
high quarters before taking any step.
Whatever the action OF the House, the
Senate is still undecided about its course
pubhcars are unwilling. Democrats are
reluctant The hot wave announcing the
approach of summer did not stimulate the
tagging energies OF the legislators Of
either party.

PEER "CADGES FOR
ORDERS FOR BEER"
Descendant of William the Con.

marks were uttered to-day by Mr.. Justice
Darling in reference to Lord Saye and

FIVE barons intrusted with the enforce

the allotment OF army canteen contracts.
Lieutenant Colonel Whitaker OF the I'd
Yorkshire Regiment. the highest in rank
of the prisoners, was sentenced to six
months imprisonment. A pathetic scene
occurred when Whitaker pleaded for
mercy. The gray old veteran. who has

The Attorney General, in closing the
case for the prosecution. remarked that
il was only fair TO Sir Thomas Upton TO
say that so far as the prosecution knew

brought before the court should be prose-
cuted.
