GLASGOW WINS
OPENING GAME
Fast Nashua Team Defeated by
3 to 5 Score.
PLAY POPLAR ON SUNDAY
Both Teams Made Good Showing IN
Sundays Game. Locals Have
Good Pitching STAFF.

The Glasgow baseball team started
the 1916 baseball season with flying
colors when it defeated Nashua last
Sunday on the local grounds by q
score 9 to S.
Despite the cold weather and threat
ening showers, the local fans were out
in force and both the grandstand and
the bleachers were well filled and had
the weather been favorable there is
no doubt but what that record crowd
would have attended.
The showing made by the local team
came up to the expectations of every
fan who was present. While it was
too cold for fast playing, and the fact
that practice had been almost i'm
possible on account of the weather.
every player performed in good form.
With the lineup Glasgow had Sunday,
they will be able to cope on even terms
with the strongest teams in this part
of the state. Spaulding and Reynolds
both showed class on the mound, and
when they get going, they will make
any team step some to beat them.
Several new players were in the
Nashua lineup. Funk playing in right
field and the Bland brothers are filling
the gaps left by the players who did
not return this season.
Puckett, the big right handler, op-
posed Spaulding and pitched the en-
tire nine innings. He was touched
up for nine hits, but his support wav-
cred at times and the Glasgow slug
gers found him for hits in the pinch
es.
After the fifth inning Spaulding re-
tired and Lefty Reynolds went in.
The little southpaw had the Indian
sign on the Nashua boys and only
one hit was garnered off him in the
three innings he tossed the pill. Hook
ing pitched the last inning and retir-
ed the side on three infeld hits, Jobst
picking two out of the dirt and heav-
ing them to first.
The receiving end was we'll taken
care of by Hurry who showed mid
season form. He also responded with
a nice hit when it was needed. Jobst
played a nice game at the third sack,

PRIMARY EXPENSIVE

1t cost Valley county approximate
ly $3.50 for each vote cast in the
county at the recent presidential pri-
mary nominating election. From
figures compiled in the clerk and re-
corder's Office, it was shown that the
expense Of holding the election was
$3,365.83. A total of 701 votes were
cast and this number divided into the
total cost, makes the cost to the coun-
ty for each vote approximately $3.50.
If all the 27OO voters who are regis
tered had voted, the expense of the
election would not have been any
greater than it was, nor would the
expense have been decreased had a
less number Of votes been cast.

COL. COLEMAN INTERVIEWED

During his recent visit to Havre,
Editor R. X. Lewis of the Havre Pro-

Valley county was in it's infancy. The
article in the Promoter follows:

VANDALS AT FAIR GROUNDS

Since the buildings at the Fair
grounds were locked up, someone has
broken into the Secretary's office and
stolen a pinch bar and post hole dig
ger. OF course the parties who stole
these things and destroyed the pro-
perty at the fair grounds should re-
member that as taxpayers in Valley
County they are only destroying pro-
perty in which they hold an interest
themselves, and they should be as will
ing to refrain from destroying and
stealing material on the fair grounds,
just the same as they would on their
own property.
In speaking of these recent thefts
and destruction of property, Secre-
tary Moore said:
"The fair association will be put
to considerable extra expense this
year repairing the damages done by
thoughtless persons since the fair
closed last fall, and this extra ex-
pense will mean that much less mon
ey for the Association to use in prem
ium money for farm products.
"The use of the fair grounds by
anyone desiring it will not be refused
and if the parties will call at my Of
flee in the Commercial Club rooms,
they can get the keys to the gate or
any of the buildings that they might
want to use. There is absolutely
no occasion for breaking the locks off
the doors or otherwise destroying the
buildings on the grounds"

SENIORS TO APPEAR
IN CLASS PLAY

'The Tanning of the Shrew" to be
Presented by High School.
The Seniors, as part of their COM
mencement exercises, will present at
the High School Auditorium next
Thursday evening, May 25, the "Tam-
ing of the Shrew." Having decided
to give Shakesperian production
in honor Of the Shakespeare tercent-
enary, they chose this laugh-provok-
ing comedy as the proper vehicle for
their efforts, and under the able dir
ection of Miss Lind have been re-
hearsing daily for several weeks.
The play itself is not one of the
most familiarly known of the list of
Shakespeare's productions, but never
theless it is one of the funniest. Bap-
tista, wealthy gentleman of Padua,
has two daughters, the elder, Kath-
crime is the shrew. She has temp
er that is about as safe and pleasant
to be near as a French powder fact
ory full of German spies. Blanca,
the younger, is quite all that could
be desired, and has many secret low
ers. Father, however, with his eye
to the main chance, refuses to allow
any of them to even call on Blanca
until the vixenish Katherine is safe
ly married.
Hortensio, one of the admirers, per-
suades a visiting friend Petruchio, to
court the shrewish Katherine, so that
the way may be open to Blanca. Pet
ruchio thinks of the bankroll that
goes with Katherine, and deciding it
will be easy money, starts in to tame
the shrew. Every married man and
prospective husband in Glasgow should
be on hand to see how it is done.
Calvin Rogers as Petruchio and Dor
is Green as the shrew take the lead
ing parts.
As to Blanca. acted by Angie H.

beloved, and incidentally into several
scrapes. One of his rivals, Lucentio
by name, DISCUSSES as a language
teacher in order to gain admission to
the home, AS teachers in those days
were slaves, he exchanges clothing
and places with his servant Franio.
The servant makes the most of his
opportunity, and gets some sweet re-
venge upon his pseudo-servant, form
erly master. There are many ludic-
rous situations.
Margaret Anderson, as the widow,
finally captures one Of Bianca's dis
appointed lovers. Ethel Pease takes
the part of the tailor who furnishes
some gowns that make considerable
trouble just as in real life. Other
parts are taken by underclass talent,
as the Seniors are not quite numer-
Gus enough this year to handle it
alone.
There will undoubtedly be packed

SUNDAY SERVICE
ON G.. N. ORDERED
Northern Montana Towns Affected
by Recent Decision.

Northern Montana Towns Affected
by Recent Decision.
Those towns in northern Montana
who are now without train service Of
any kind on Sunday will be interest
ed in the decision made Wednesday
by the Montana railroad commission,
ordering the Great Northern to fur
nish Sunday service within twenty
days.
The complaints and protests of the
towns whose service was affected by
the new schedule which left them with
out any passenger trains on Sunday,
caused the railway commission to
give them hearing, and the result
of this was the order issued by the
commission.
The order directs the Great North
ern to operate local passenger trains
each way daily between Mondak and
G'/igow and between Havre and Glas-
gov, between Havre and Virden and
between Moccasin and Lewistown.
Flag stops were ordered as follows:
Trains Nos. 3 and 4 at Oswego and
Nashua; train No. 4 at Dodson; train
No. 2 at Saco to let off passengers
from points south and west of Havre,
and to pick up passengers for all
points east of Glasgow; train No. 8
at Hinsdale and Warland.
Chairman Hall of the Commission,
in a dissenting opinion, gave the fol-
lowing interview to the Helena Rec
ord Herald.
81 concur in the order of the ma
jority in this case, as far as it goes,
but feel that in addition thereto, train
No. 2 should stop at Harlem, Dod-
son, Hinsdale and Wolf Point to let
off passengers from points west and
south of Havre, and to pick up pas
sengers for points east of Culbertson
where said train stips."
The argument of the Great North
ern that Montana is not entitled to
Sunday local service because such ser
vice is not given in North Dakota or
Minnesota is answered with figures
obtained from the railroad commits
sion of North Dakota, which COM
pared with Montana figures, how the
Great Northern earns $571.23 more
per mile on passenger travel in Mon
tana than in North Dakota, while its
freight earnings are $1,496.58 great
or per mile in this state than in Da-
kota.
Adducing other figures, the COM
mission shows that intrastate passen-
ger earning of the Great Northern in
Montana exceeds the Northern Paci-
fic earnings in the sum of $92, ,8O7 .O9,
but on interstate passenger earnings
the Northern Pacific exceeds the
Great Northern in the sum of $685.
374.62.
"The obvious deduction of these
comparisons" says the commission,
"is that the defendant has a greater
ticket purchasing population strictly
intrastate, than the Northern Pacific
Most of these persons evidently hav,
no choice of competitive routes. How
ever, on interstate business where
choice of routes exists to a much
greater degree, the defendant does
not get the passenger business. The
defendant is itself responsible for
this condition -

END OF A DREAM.

Cecil Rhodes, empire builder, dreamed
a dream of universal brotherhood. It
was, of course, merely dream; for during
his lifetime Rhodes was too busy adj
vancing the imperial interests of Great
Britain to do any practical work toward
unifying the human race. He worked
toward unifying in behalf of his own
nation, and then. in his will, provided a
plan for eliminating national lines and for
bringing all nations together The con-
trast between the deeds of Rhodes, and
the desires expressed in his will is striking
1t is the contrast between working and
dreaming.
The Rhodes plan for bringing the
nations together was embodied in the
establishment of the Rhodes scholarships
at Oxford. A large sum of money was
set aside to pay for the education of nom
British students at the favored university
of the testator, The students were to
be chosen with care from among the most
promising youth of foreign countries.
Americans, Germans and many others
took advantage of the opportunities thus
offered, and the Rhodes scholars became
an interesting feature Of Oxford life
But the dream is now at an end. The
British government will permit no more
German students to come to Oxford, and
it is not unlikely that the Rhodes scholar
ships will be abolished altogether. By
cutting off the German aspirants Great
Britain is dealing the heaviest possible
blow against the Rhodes plan. Surely
Great Britain has the greatest need of an
understanding with Germany, and any
movement toward universal international
amity which excludes Germany must be
futile.
The Rhodes scholarships have ac-
complished little or nothing toward
establishing human brotherhood The
foreign students have taken advantage
Of the opportunities, but they have not
gone forth to preach any ringing gospel
of peace and good will. They have re-
turned to their respective fatherlands
uninspired to lead the world. Their love
Of England has not been increased merely
because they have benefited by the
posthumous philanthropy Of one of the
most intensely English of all Englishmen.
It is conceivable and probable that the
knowledge gained at Oxford by some of
the German Rhodes scholars is now being
used against England.
AS a plan for increasing the worlds
educational opportunities the Rhodes
scholarships were admirable; but as
means to establish universal peace they
have proved quite useless Cleveland

SALOON AND RESIDENCE
ARE DAMAGED BY FIRE

Fire, which broke out shortly before
8 O'Clock yesterday afternoon, in the
saloon and restaurant owned by Jacob
Fritz, on First North steret, near the
City Water Works, did in the neighbor-
hood of $3.50 damage, according the
estimate of Mr.. Fritz, soon after it had
been subdued. The damage was mostly
to the building, the contents escaping
with injury mostly by smoke and water.
The New Ulm Fire Department was
promptly at the scene and extinguished
the flames within a short time. The
fire is supposed to have been caused by
defective chimney.
