per cent of the remainder will then
be deducted for league expenses. The
balance will then be divided between
the two clubs, 90 per cent to the home
team and 40 per cent to the visitors.
The visitors will be guaranteed rail-
road fare for II men.
An umpire and a scorer will be
employed for each club on its recon-
mendation, but umpires will work
only in neutral towns. The salaries
and expenses of umpires and the sal
aries of scorers will be paid by the
league.
No 'rowdyism at the games will be
tolerated and provision has been made
tor penalizing teams and individual
players guilty of this offense.
Ontario, according to Manager
tackey, will have a strong team and
the fans of his town are willing to
guarantee the necessary support for
league ball. The Boise team, it is said
will be made up the best material
that can be selected from the Twilight
clubs there. Caldwell has a big SQUAD
to choose from-a number of old
timers and bunch of fast Youngsters
NO comment is necessary regarding
the, Nampa club after the showing
made last Sunday. All the manage.
ment is asking here is a more liberal
patronage of the games.

MORE TITAN 1900 COYOTES Have
BEEN KILLED IN LAST 10 WEEKS

This destruction Of predatory beasts
will mean a saving Of thousands Of
dollars to sheepmen for the coyotes
prey principally upon the flocks. How
ever, 1t will mean saving to almost
every farmer, too, for II is a well
known fact that coyotes do not keep
to the sheep ranges alone. The chick
ems and pigs on every ranch offer such
an easy opportunity of getting food
that these animals are found within
two miles of the city limits
Many Of the coyotes killed are pups
found In holes. The bounty law, how
ever makes no discrimination against
pups, making the scalp Of the young
worth as much as the scalp Of the old
However the hide Of the old coyotes
are worth something so that the hum
ter OF coyotes profits not alone from
the bounty. Many men have made a
business Of coyote hunting this spring
and have made good wages. Mr.
Smythe states that one of his herders
quit his Job for two weeks and In that
time killed 81 coyotes.
The wholesale slaughter of coyotes
means not only big saving to ranch
ers and stockmen but II greatly de-
creases a danger to human life inas-
much as during the past year especi-
ally, rabies has made its appearance
among these animals and made them
Il great menace.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1915-05-20

Under the stimulus OF the new Ore
gon bounty law, the hunting of coy
otes and other predatory wild animals
has been done in the past ten weeks
on a scale never equalled before and
in consequence, more than 1900 OF
these animals have been killed. Prac-
tically 80 per cent Of those killed have
been coyotes the ravager Of the sheep
ranges and farmyards.
Up until noon today since Umatllls
county resumed the payment Of boun-
ty in March, total Of 1871 scalps had
been presented at the office Of County
Clerk Sailing and total Of s5013 had
been paid out in bounty. OF this am
cunt under the new law, the state pays
one half and the county one half.
During the last weeks In March the
bounty money amounted to s472. In
April more than 1900 scalps were
brought in. the warrants issued for
them. totaling S363S. So far this
month S01 scalps have been brought
in. the bounty money totallng 1903.
The three dollar bounty has had a
similar effect in other counties where
coyotes are numerous, Dan p. smythe
of this city declares that upon the
Smythe Bros. range alone near Arl-
ington, between 400 and 500 coyotes
have been killed since the emergency
law passed by the last legislature
went into effect.

INTERIOR CITIES WILL
GAIN THROUGH DECISION
INTERSTATE COMMERCE. COM
MISSION FIXES MAXIMUM
FREIGHT RATE.

WALLA WALLA. May 20.-Local
jobbers and merchants are much
pleased over the announcement that
the transcontinenta railroads are CIV
en- permission by the interstate com
merce commission to establish low
freight rates to intermountain cities,
including Walla Walla, Spokane and
Others. to such a degree as they may
deem necessary in building up their
interior business The order accord
ing to jobbers, is favorable to
these cities and means the immediate
building up of Walla Walla and 9th.
er intermountain cities as big distrib-
uting centers. The decision was
made in the so-called Spokane rate
case in which Walla walla was inter-
ested.
While the commission appears to
disapprove of the original plan sub
mitted by the railroads for building
up their interior centers, it establish
es maximum rate to these centers,
but no minimum. This Is construed
by local jobbers to mean that, while
no definite rate is fixed by the COM
mission the railroads can give the in
terror points a rate as low as the
coast rate or higher IL they desire,
always on the condition, however,
that the new rate is not greater than
the terminal rate plus rs per cent OF
the local rate from the nearest ter
minal back to the interior point. Even
the maximum rate, it is pointed out,
would mean lower rate than exist
ing rates on many commodities.

C. ". HOLLIS, FORMERLY OF
ATH:NA, CALLED BY DEATH
PIONEER MERCHANT OF THIS
COUNTY is MOURNED BY
WIDOW AND SONS.

News was received here this morn
ing of the death in Lamont, Wash,
on April Is, of C. w. Hollis, one OF
the pioneer merchants of Athena and
well known to every old time resident
of the county. The news was con-
tanned in a letter to viii NJ. Peterson
from the wife of the deceased.
Mr.. Hollis started business in Athe-
na. then Centerville, in the early
eighties. running a general store. For
a number of years the firm name
was Hollis & Van Cleaye. At that
time the town was nothing more than
a rough pioneer village but Mr. Hol
lis prospered and when he left there
IA years ago he was reputed to be
worth 100000.
From Athena he went to Oakland,
California, where he remained until
three years ago. He moved to La
mont. and has since conducted the
largest hardware and implement store
in that city. He is survived by his
widow and two grown sons.

LONDON, May 20-Viscount Hal
dane, Lord high chancellor, in the
house Of lords sounded a note of
warning TO the nation on the possi-
bility Of conscription. He said:
We are fighting for our lives in
perhaps the most tremendous war
In history and, even though we may
think that under ordinary conditions
and in times Of peace the system of
voluntary enlistment is one from
which it would be the most difficult
to depart yet we may find that we
shall have to reconsider that situa-
tlon in the light of the tremendous
necessities Of the nation. think con-
scription may come but it is well to
remember that our voluntary system
has given US an army which. for
quality compares with anything that
can be put in the field"
Lord Haldane's announcement ap-
pears to confirm the idea prevalen:
here that, while recruiting has been
satisfactory. the heavy fighting which
has been taking place in Flanders.
where the Germans have for long
time been attacking with the great
est violence the British line, many
more men will be required if victory
is TO be attained.
