An Unearned Assist.

moved out of the box after he delivered
the ball and walked right into the

1.-The ball hit Walker on top OF the
head and as Walker dropped to the
ground the ball bounded high in the
sir. The runner had reached second
by that time and, not seeing the ball in
play, raced for third. But our short
stop saw the ball, caught it as it came
down and whipped it to third in time
to put out the runner.

men with an assist. He gave me an

BANCHO'S GHOST.

There are still some who. can't get
it through their heads that Clearwater
county was in debt $126, 600 when the
republicans took charge the 18th OF
January 1915. They get their tax
receipts and blame the republicans
for high taxes. But can't people get
this into their noodles-the law COM
pels the county board to levy up to
ten mills to pay outstanding warrants,
if there are that many, or enough to
take care of whatever outstanding
warrants there may be prior to the
second Monday in April. The old
board disregarded the law. But dis
regarding the law did not pay the
outstanding warrants. They went
right on drawing seven per cent. in
terest, while some very good demo-
Gratis saying that the county didn t
owe cent.
The democrats should have raised
the grand total of 1926, 600 for 1914
had they met their own bills, and run
the county, as the law contemplated.
Here are the figures:
The democrats raised total OF
1925, 600 in taxes in 1914. After
spending every penny of this, ane
applying the July payment of some
SIS, 900, there was approximate,
sos, 600 to be paid and no provision
made to take care of the debt. Thi
is giving the democrats the benefit o
every penny, and turning a bankrup
treasury over to their successors.
Having carried their own loa
would taxes have been high last year
Oh, NO! Only about $50, 600 high
er than this year, because the oil
board would have paid S44, 900 fc

FREE TRADE HURTS OROFINO.


The present tariff law places
cement on the free list, and opened
the doors of the American markets to
Canadian manufacturers, to the detri-
ment of American manufacturers, en-
ploying American labor, and giving
American business to American mer-
chants. If the labor that makes our
cement lives in Canada it spends its
money in Canada. 1t means that it
will rent Canadian homes and patron
ize Canadian merchants, consuming
the products from Canadian farms.
1t will be Canadian dairymen who
will supply the milk, butter and
cheese; Canadian carpenters who will
build the homes; Canadian towns and
cities and communities that will pros
per and grow. When 81 600 of Cana
