Senator W. E. Borah gave out
an interview which is of interest
to members of all political par
ties:
Il am not a candidate, never
have been a candidate and do
not expect to be a republican
candidate for the presidency.
In regard to this matter | merely
reiterate my statements made in
the east at different times. /
hope to take part in the campaign
at that time, and shall put forth
every effort bring about party
success. do not believe l have
any selfish motives in this, and |
expect to see the republican
candidate nominated elected
president of the United States.
shall endeavor to work to that
end so far as | am personally
concerned.
my opinion is that the cam
paign will be fought between the
two old parties. | do not look
for a third party in the field
that is, a third party to be known
as the progressive party. am
not one of those who think we
can elect just anybody on just
any kind of platform. Never
theless, l believe we will elect
the next president.
President Wilson will be a
foeman worthy of our steel. He
is much stronger in the country
than his party, and those who
try to delude themselves that he
is not, or that his defeat will be
easily accomplished, are in error.
Of course it is not necessary for
me to say differ from President
Wilson in most of his policies,
but l have very high admira-
ton for him as a man."

Baseball Dope

In the game at Chewelah Sum-
day, Colville was defeated 7 to 2.
The Colville boys say that aside
from the terrible grubbing they
were royalty treated by Chewe-
lah players and fans, and had it
not been for the sensational
fielding of Eddie Raftis of the
Gonzaga team, and the usual
hard luck that always attends
the losing team, they would have
had an easy game, but when
Chewelah plays their return on
Sunday, May 16, there will be
a different story to tell. Col
vile plays return game at
Springdale next Sunday.
On the official bulletin board at
Turks Dope" in speaking of
the ball game with Chewelah,
one of the lines read wet game,
no grounds"
Manager Dexter is making an
effort to schedule two games
with Gonzaga for May 80 and
81; if these arrangements can be
made these games will be the
sensation of the season, as this
team is probably the fastest
baseball aggregation ever on the
Colville diamond.
Meyers Falls in a spirited game
last Sunday defeated Kettle Falls
by a score of 3 to 2.
The Colville team thus far has
a standing of 500, winning three
games out of six games played.
The high school boys on the
Colville lineup, DeGreif. Wernli,
Rogers and Smith, all SEEM to
be making good, and are liable
to become stars on the team.
And there are a number of others
among the high school athletes
that might show some class if
given an opportunity.

for thought. Wonderful in
ventions are coming to us fast;
some of them entirely too fast.
When the writer was a boy and
saw the bicycle, he knew there
could be no such thing. for it
took three wheels to make a
vehicle. But now behold the
transformation of the tricycle.
into the two-wheeled devil call
ed the motorcycle, and the change
from the family chariot to the
hay-burning Ford.
In former days we had time to
eat the regular kinds of food, but
in this day of progress and high
speed we haven't time to stop and
coax milk out of a COW, and go
through the exertions of gather
in butter from the milk. With
the horse becoming a curiosity
in the city and the COW no longer
needed on the farm, the small
boy might take some pleasure in
doing the chores.
A field of green hay, or
the ripened product in the
stack, doesn't require as much
attention as a COW. A haystack,
which can be MIXED at any
hour of the day, will not be likely
to wander over the front walk
while the young lady and her
beau are wondering whether they
can afford to get married in June,
nor will it be found in the early
morn with its sides bulging with
the first mess of sweetcorn you
were going to pick. 1t will not
tear off your left ear with its tail
in fly time, and will not accumu-
late any sickly looking calf just
as the price of cream drops.
Whether the milk direct-from-
the-hay will have to be pasteur-
lied we do not know; but the
hay wouldn't have to be pastured.
By turning the hose on the stack,
extra milk for all customers
could be had with little exertion,
and without the trouble of steal
ing all the grain in the neighbor-
hood to feed the beast. A quiet,
gentle sort of haystack could
be gradually cultivated, one with
out the proclivity of horns, or
an appetite for choice flowers or
disposition which makes the
owner curse her down through a
long line of ancestry.
