BARONS ADD ANOTHER

The Barons added another tally in
the next session. With one gone, Red
Smith singled to right and Cation
walked. Karl Black doubled to deep
right and Red counted. Cation was
thrown out at the plate attempting to
score.
The Gulls went in the lead in their
next bat. Danny Gondolf walked as an
opener. Joe Wiley hunted and beat it
out, Hauser failing to cover first. Holt
Mcdowell hunted down the third base
line and beat it out, Black failing to
field the ball. Ed Holley smacked one
center and cleaned the bases. That was
all the Gulls did in the line of scoring,
as Blackie drew stronger as the game
progressed and had the former Schmidt
men popping up.
|, The Barons tied the count in the
sixth. With two down Fred Derrick
walked. Cecil Coombs trippled to deep
left and Fred counted.
HAUSER'S SWAT WINS
The game was won In the next in
ming. Pug Cavet grew little erratic.
Fred Derrick singled down the third
base line and Cecil Coombs singled
to left. Meusel forced Fred at third but
Mike Hauser caught one on the nonse
ana pasted IL TO deep right Tor cou-
pie of bases. Cecil scored on the rap
and Meusel counted when Mcintyre
threw wild to the plate, Mike ad-
vancing to third. Two hits and an error
added another in the eighth.
A peculiar incident happened in the
first inning when, with Mcdowell on
second, Holley singled clearly to right
Meusel was playing in exceptionally
close and whipped the ball to first
throwing the Gull out by a wide mar
gin. 1t was the first time the play had
been pulled at Redwood this season.
| The Barons hit the ball hard through
out the game, hitting no less than eight
| line drives which were caught. The
game was long and listless and was
witnessed by only small crowd.

now are history. This by way of an
application of the principles OF far
play A majority of the people of the
United States have endorsed President
Wilson and the Democratic party. The
fact that The News is a Republican
newspaper, always has been and in all
human probability always will be, has
nothing to do with the point.
In the state of Idaho, where the
broader principles of government
scarcely enter into the situation, there
is need of emphasis. A majority of the
new state officials will be Democrats.
A Democratic governor will occupy
the executive chair and a substantial
working majority of both upper and
lower house of the state legislature
will be Democratic. All are entitled
to their choice and all should have it,
without regard to past performance.

PARCEL POST FOR
FARM MARKETING
Many Problems Presented in Getting
Consumer and Producer Together
Through Postal Service.

Although the marketing of farm
produce by parcel post is relatively
new in the United States, it is, in fact,
only a special case of direct dealing
between producer and consumer,
which was the very earliest type of
marketing, says the Weekly News Let
ter of the United States Department of
Agriculture. Only the transportation
medium is new in parcel post trading.
This itself is to a certain extent par
alleled by express, which has been
available and has been utilized by
some farmers for many years. Even
with the older forms of direct dealing,
in which sales are made from house to
house or through farmers markets,
parcel-post marketing has points in
common in that the actual producer
of the goods is known to the consumer
of them, and the satisfaction or dissat-
isfaction of the latter has direct and
potent effect on the success of the
formers business
In spite of these general similarities
however, many new problems in the
marketing CT farm produce we're Great

COAL SHORTAGE MAKES
WILLIAMS REMINISCENT
City Clerk Tells Of How There Were
Many Early Worms and Some Much
Earlier.

This talk about possible coal
shortage here, if we should have
cold SPELL" said City Clerk r. M. Will
liams Friday, reminds me of the coal
famine that we had here eight years
ago, the first year that l came to the
tract.
II found out that coal was short
just as my coal was about out and
also learned that car of coal was
coming in on certain night. l went
to all draymen and asked them to
haul me some, but they all turned me
down, because they said that there
were so many orders in ahead of me
that l could not get any and there was
no use talking about it. l had to have
coal, and so l decided that when the
car came in would be on hand early,
before anyone got there and get some
before the rush.
1.-The coal came in at night and
gathered up four or five sacks and the
next morning was up just before four
o'clock, so that l would get there by
that hour. 1t was a clear, crisp win
ter morning, with the thermometer
registering twenty degrees below, but
fine. AS l left home, l could hear
wagons on the roads all around town
rumbling along and when I got near
the depot l found that wagons were
already lined up for two blocks.
81 found that the arrangement was
that the draymen for the coal compan-
les were loading up and then dividing
among their customers, little to each.
l was not in it, but l got my coal. l
stood by the scales and when it be-
came necessary for driver to kick off
little l picked it up and in this way
filled my sacks before the coal was all
gone. Many came with wagons and
went away empty. When the last
wagon that got coal had secured what
was left for it, l weighed mine and
asked the driver to take it home for
me, which he did. That gave me
enough to tide over until supply
came to town"

NEWS DENOUNCfS
TECHNICAL CONTEST
FayOrS Congratulations to Dem
OCratiC Executives
SAYS WILSON Is PRESIDENT AND
ALEXANDER Is GOVERNOR.
People Are Entitled to Their Choice
and Should Have it Should Contest
Only for Fraud

Urging the people to forget election
differences, acknowledge the victory
of President Wilson and Governor
Alexander, let bygones be bygones and
get down to business in support of
the administrations of both, the Twin
Falls News, the leading Republican
paper Of southern Idaho, in its issue
of Thursday last, editorially opposes
contests on technical grounds 1t says:
From present indications it would
appear that the Idaho election is a
badly mixed up affair Whether or not
subsequent Investigations, if any are
made, will show actual fraud cannot
be definitely determined at this time,
but there can be no question but what
a good many ballots were counted in a
good many different ways.
A recount might change the results
as to the goyernorship, but so far as
can be seen there is an even better
chance that it would not. Moreover,
from the standpoint of the defeated
candidate, the chance is not worth the
effort
In the light of all facts, The News
favors the out and out concession, on
the part Of their opponents, of the
election of both President Wilson and
Governor Alexander without further
delay.
If election frauds are shown to have
occurred, Immediate action should be
taken looking to the prosecution of the
guilty, and if a readiustment of the
count brought about by such action
should show the election of Mr.. Davis,
well and good, but as far as the cleo
ton is concerned it would be we'll to
regard it as over
With the election safely passed and
the results determined beyond the
peradventure of doubt, q number of
interesting points present themselves.
To begin with, it is apparent that the
wave of Democracy has receded
throughout the east for the most part.
For the first time in the history of
the country a presidential candidate
carrying the state of New York has
gone down to defeat.
California may be regarded as the
pivotal state of the Republican cam
paign. Not that the electoral college
votes of California alone would nee
essarily have changed the result, but
had the Hughes campaign been sue
cessful in California enough additional
states would probably have been in
fluenced thereby to swing the result
to Hughes. The fact that Hughes saw
fit to line up in California with the
element opposite TO that headed by
Governor Johnson becomes, therefore.
the biggest single factor in his de-
feat for the presidency
Today there is but one proper atti-
tude on the part of the public at
large, namely, to wipe the slate clean
as to the four years that have gone
and give to President Wilson and the
new congress the right to make good

ENGLAND Defends
BLACKLISTING PLAN
Refuses to Yield to Contention of
United States-Says Blacklist just
and Necessary.

WASHINGTON-Th British reply
to the latest American note protesting
against the trade blacklist, made pub
lie tonight by the state department,
denies that right of neutral traders
under international law have been
ruthlessly cancelled, defines the black
list plainly concerning only the Brit
ish government and British citizens
and contends that it is designed to
shorten the war.
The note fails to meet the Ameri-
can demand that the names of Ameri-
can firms be stricken from the black
list, but attempts to convince the state
department that the British position is
just and founded on law. 1t leaves
open the door for further negotiation,
which is expected to follow.
The note was subscribed by Wis
count Grey the British foreign minis
ter, and was addressed to and trans
mitted by Walter Hines Page, the AM
erican ambassador at London.
A part which attracted much official
notice dealt with the subject Of peace.
based on the theory that one American
contention had been that there exists
no military necessity for the blacklist /:
that it is unnecessary for the allies to
prejudice neutral commerce, and that
nothing which happens in distant neu-
trail countries can influence the result
Of the great conflict.
IF that really were the position, 4"
says the note, "it is possible that the
measures taken by his majesty's gov
eminent might be described as uncall-
ed for, but it is not We may well wish
that it were so. Even though the mill
tary situation of the allies has greatly
improved, there is still a long and
bitter struggle in front of them, and
one which in justice TO the principles
for which they are fighting imposes
upon them the duty of employing
every opportunity and every measure
which they can legitimately use tc
overcome their opponents.
